The third addition, the DAF XG+ 30 Years in Czechia Edition, celebrates three decades of DAF in the Czech Republic with a special anniversary design, unique exterior details, and an exclusive interior featuring dedicated upholstery and stitching. You can find out more in our blog post

New GaragesWe are introducing new truck garage models across the entire base map and all map DLCs, so you’ll be able to enjoy these refreshed garages wherever you go. The new garages feature updated visuals both in the interior and exterior, with greater attention to detail and a more modern, immersive feel. We hope this will make upgrading your garage feel even more rewarding.
Of course, performance was also an important consideration. Bringing these new garages to the game while keeping their performance cost in check compared to the older models was no small task, but we hope we’ve found the right balance between improved visuals and performance. You can

Improved Material SystemWe are continuing to expand the Improved Material System with this update, bringing it to more truck interiors. The Iveco S-Way is the latest addition to the lineup, benefiting from enhanced lighting and improved visual quality, with a particular focus on how different interior materials react to light.
We hope you enjoy the new beautiful visuals! You can read more about this topic

The latest Goodyear logo and slightly adjusted colours are now featured across the paint jobs, bringing them in line with the current design.
Game Radio UpdateWith the 1.62 Open Beta, we’re also bringing an update to the Escape station within our Game Radio feature! As the only stream-safe station in our in-game radio lineup, Escape is a great choice for content creators who want to share their journeys with their communities.
