Design[]

The Sports Car is a rear-wheel drive vehicle with a rear-mounted engine.

Features
Designed exclusively for high power motorsports racing, the Sports Car is one of the fastest land vehicles in Cold War Assault. It can easily outpace every other civilian vehicle and blaze past military vehicles as well.

Mobility
It can make sharp turns with ease and is able to comfortably attain a top speed of up to 182 km/h. However, the Sports Car is only capable of hitting these speeds on paved roads. While off-road, the Sports Car has terrible handling and will easily flip on uneven surfaces.

Crew Capacity
The Sports Car supports a driver and a single passenger.[CfgVh 1]

Trivia[]

  • The in-game Sports Car is modelled after the real-world "Škoda 130 Rapid" designed by then-Czechoslovakia based car manufacturer AZNP (now known as Škoda Auto).
  • Initially, a visual glitch with the Sports Car's speedometer would result in the dial rotating backwards when the driver accelerated (and forwards when reversing or ground to a halt). This was eventually fixed after the release of Patch 1.10.[5]
  • Prior to Patch 1.30, the Sports Car would float slightly above the terrain regardless of whether it was placed in the mission editor or was spawned via scripting commands.[6]
