Carblox Summarized
Konian's Back for More
Konian has been on a streak as of late, with its most recent cars from both it and its subsidiary Fumi ranging from enjoyed to especially popular. And T3STAR has no interest in hitting the brake pedal, teasing a muscle-style coupe that's possibly the next thing up for the Aussie brand. Just like the improved Tiro, no other details have been provided.

Hatchback Teasers for Days
Side teasers are all the rage with the community all being tired of the basic headlights in a black background formula. Gallus and Escori teased upcoming models on October 22nd, with the Gallus being christened Fretka, and the Escori GT10 in a later uploaded video on October 24th.

Guess Who DeBarge-d In
This mystery brand, run by KASH1R0 (owner of DeBarge, Portocello, and Sedagli), teased a very well build automobile on October 22nd. Nothing else is known about the brand, but with the current quality outlook, keeping an eye on this unnamed company wouldn't hurt.

Peek-a-Boo, We're Back
Ciazzi teased their next upcoming model on November 1st, and it improves over the models of past, which improved upon their own predecessors. Ciazzi joins Volattolo and Portocello as the next brick-built Italian brand to adopt the "circular tubular" headlight design (look out Marvino and Sedagli), and the next to release a classically styled car with them. Ciazzi Automobilla owner Eromax156 did not set any distinct release date, keeping it to a "coming soon if I feel like it" quip, but officially, the brand is here again, with something fresh.

Saying Farewell to the Sonya Agora
On October 15th, ItsFireFox2006, owner of the iconic Uemuki Group brand, announced that the Agora sedan has reached end-of-life. The model, alongside the nameplate is now discontinued and has been taken off sale on the Roblox Marketplace after an approximate year of sale. To send off the lineup of cars, the brand owner organized 10 final run models to be given to select people. On the 16th, the form closed, and the winners were chosen.
The Agora was the last CFC07-based car to be released publicly and is the most well regarded CFC07 auto in the industry. It got multiple model years, dating to the 2000s over its lifespan. The model also received a limo model called the XTS, which was also placed off sale.

Razzle Dazzle Once More
Razzo has been revived from the dead again, this time by Konian owner T3STAR. On October 19th, he announced he would be taking over the defunct Italian manufacturer, telling the industry he's revamping the Tiro, the company's only car, to have quality that rivals the recently released 2023 Konian Elusive. No other details have been released regarding the brand, but this may be what the company needed to finally release the car after over a year of development hell, drama, and conflicts.
Alongside the Tiro being closer to completion more now than ever before, with T3STAR at the helm, things may finally be looking up for Razzo.

Redesigned, Refined, Fremtid II
Electility has completely reworked it's redefined Fremtid's design, going beyond refining the rough edges to giving a new style entirely. All rendered on a Steam Deck, no less. Brand owner keisozoku also gave us new details concerning the car, with the electric hypercar set to make 84o horsepower, which will all go to the rear wheels. While it is less HP than before, the exchanges made will definitely not mean it's taking everything any less than 200 MPH.

Summit Climbs Back Up
Summit Automotive has been extremely silent, virtually dead for a while now. At least until October 25th, where S_undown announced the brand is back, but not to haunt us from the grave. The post announced the Kesif, a compact crossover that is built on the same platform as the Summit Kintla. To quote S_undown:
"-the Kesif aims to provide something that few other crossovers can attest to - a simple, fun, and affordable vehicle."
The car's powertrain trims are still up in the air but are not publicly known. Overall, Summit plans to follow through with its name and begin climbing up from the start. There is no other information right now, but Carblox will keep you updated on further developments.

The End of the Road for Nucleus
It feels like a decade ago when we were seeing the Nucleus Centrum sedan at Inspiration Autoshow 2021. It's been fourteen months since then, and a lot has changed, and it's the end of an era, Nucleus' specifically.
Owner IssizArda, f.k.a TwxnMill released a document detailing the end of Nucleus. In the document, he described the thought process that took him to this decision:
"I was planning to write this earlier and now I finally have found myself time to write this message. As I grew up from day to day, I got more desperate about my future-self since I became 18. Will I only be known for making cars in some kind of game without earning anything? Trying to play as a “corporate CEO”? Trying to “hype” people but ending up in a cliffhanger? Giving “promises”? "
"Instead, I just want to get real, not to get into corporate bulls**t. I just want to do more than just designing cars for just a platform as my life doesn’t only consist of these. I want to be known with more general titles in art, music etc. With all these reasons, I decided to end the Nucleus Automobiles with a project."
The project, which is currently unnamed, consists of two parts, the Nucleus Euph hypercar, which will be worked on first, and the Celebi II, a second generation of the recognizable electric hot hatch. Both are going to feature completely unique designs with high details and quality, alongside a top-notch driving experience.
IssizArda did not confirm any sorts of release date, if it'll release to the public or be a paid limited production release, but after these cars are completed, that it will be the end of Nucleus. IssizArda did say, quote:
", it doesn’t mean that my passion for designing cars is completely gone. I had fun while designing cars and concept designs, felt the improvement, and had good friends. The end of Nucleus Automobiles doesn’t mean that I am completely quitting the community, I can still help others at designing stuff in the community, but not as a mainstream thing to do. I wrote this to get more balanced in my life, it isn’t only consistent just on one platform."
In the end, Nucleus did a lot during it's time, from being in auto shows to completely reforming itself as an exclusive brand. From saying "Centrum Soon" to "Sayonara" alongside everything in between, the brand definitely made its mark in the community and industry, if you're one to enjoy playing "corporate CEO". It's time to say goodbye to Nucleus, it's time for it to go through nuclear fission.
¹Correction: The Gallus Fretka is a sedan, not a hatchback.
