  • SPECIAL REPORT: Goodbye, Sergio

    After declining in health over the past few months predating Inspiration Autoshow, which he made too and beyond, Sergio, also known by his Roblox username Omologata, founder and first CEO of Razzo, had passed on November 9th, 2021 at 3:48 AM, which we where informed of by the Maya, mother of Gianni, his child. On the same day, at 4:15 PM, it was confirmed that the cause of death was Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding, a symptom of a disorder in your digestive tract according to Mayo Clinic. Everyone from Bryan and JetForce33, to Avxnturdor, v3terann and beyond, an amazing wave of people acknowledged the heartbreaking news, with MrBlimbo/carmaster93 entrusted with Razzo with Bryan and the rest at the company continuing work to make the Razzo Tiro truly amazing. I, Catalyst_0, offer condolences from the bottom of my heart to Maya and the young Gianni, and will remember his legacy. I talked with Sergio and knew him, but didn't know him. Fly high Sergio, fly high. I wish the most groundbreakingly best to Maya and Gianni. Beyond what I just wrote, I am truly wordless, and making this article was harder than any other thing I've written. What words I can write can't hold the gravity of loss, and I wish I could say more. But I will touch on the disrespect Sergio's passing has been responded to with, and I can sum it up in two words: utterly disgusting. From two bad actors in Quo's Discord to a new person joining the Autoworks server, reading the industry news channel and making a small, weak or possibly insincere announcement to respond to the news of Sergio's death to people saying "Is he really dead?" or "Is this just a roleplay" leaves me disappointed in those who think such things. There is no roleplay, this isn't some lore thing. He's truly gone. For the people who are constantly making fun of this, I wonder how you sleep at night, knowingly and openly being so cruel, heck, there is no word on the planet in any language to encapsulate your more-than-reprehensible actions. Please, be respectful, something this significant wouldn't be faked for clout and trolling over it is truly a repulsive endeavor. Sergio, 2004-2021, may you rest in peace, you left us all too early. 🌹

  • I Am So, So, Sorry

    Yesterday, I attacked MadeinChina14323 under the assumption it was Metal0fH0nor. I made some extremely wicked and uncalled for comments I shouldn't have said, regardless of who they are. I am so sorry to MadeinChina14323 for my harsh and evil words regarding who they are and Tang County. I should have used my head, but of course, as we can see, I didn't. I did not mean to do harm to MadeinChina14323, and have reached out to apologize once again for my actions, and can only hope they'll even read my direct messages. Due to my horrible words, I will be taking a break from the entire Roblox Car Community for the rest of the week (and likely the next). There was no drug, nor influence I was under, no peer pressure I was under: I am to blame for my own faults. I did something completely cruel and have hurt someone for another's actions. I am truly remorseful for what I sent. All I did was cause unneeded drama. I feel ashamed for what I had said. I hope you will find it to forgive me, and if you can't, I understand. What happened yesterday is a something I will not be able to remove from history, but something I can aspire to make up. From the bottom of my heart, I am so, so, sorry.

  • Industry Updates: The Model "Filter"

    It's been a annoying few days for the Roblox Marketplace... Recently, Roblox Corporation has added a model filter to the Marketplace to prevent spam models by hiding models it flags. Unfortunately, as with most moderation attempts from the platform, this has instead affected rule-following users rather than actual spammers. This so-called "filter" works like this, quoting Colt Motors CEO Ono_Three "The filter seems to work by gathering a group of models with the same name and find the one with the oldest updated date." Currently, only two companies have reported problems in Autoworks: Colt and Escori. For Colt, literally ALL their main models and trims were hidden. The 2022 Colt Vulpes GT, 2022 Vulpes GT-S, 2022 Riolu E, 2022 Riolu G AWD, and 2022 Riolu G RWD have all been taken down from Colt, while Escori lost their 2011 Aurora, 2021 Dusk, and 2021 Dusk Sedan RS. More companies are bound to be affected, especially companies with more models like Hyperion or Sonya. CarBlox will keep you updated on more brands.

  • Industry Updates: Quo Merged with Rep Rep

    Not much I can say so I'll make this quick and snappy. Quo Group announced a merger with a Roblox game studio called Rep Rep (stylized as rep rep). The group is behind Squid Trial and Rope People Simulator and has amassed an impressive 34 million visits in total. Quo CEO totallyydom added in the announcement message that Discord server boosting perks, giveaway codes, updates and all will be posted in the Quo Discord in the next upcoming timeframe. Rep Rep has a Roblox group with approximately 21K members and a Discord with 1.2K members. This merger does point something out: Quo is putting more work into reviving it's entertainment division since 73 Entertainment took it's in-development driving game Santa Marina and left the holding company. We saw the release of an obby testing game over the summer and I expect to see more games come out from the joint effort. This means Quo is preparing to expand even more. We all know Quo Housing and Quo Electronics (Quo Technologies?), both ventures from the automotive sector, though Quo Electronics is pretty much dead as the entire tech industry saw massive losses with even known brands like Mortech, Romp, and Mohammed Tech shutting down (though the first two joined Uemuki, so a possible brand revival from them seems at least feasible.) There's not much I can really say other than Rep Rep and Quo are in cahoots now. Not really cahoots though, as unlike the word's meaning (working together in secret), I expect to see a ton of updates from Quo and Rep Rep.

  • SPECIAL REPORT: The True End Of Two Eras

    We lost not one, but TWO brands in one day. UniQ SA and Razzo Automobili S.p.A. are both shutting down. UniQ will be releasing it's Origala coupe, Nathan pickup, and Maskarada concept it's working on with Konian and then that's it. The company is closed. After a lot of discussion, it has been decided that UniQ will be leaving the industry after the release of the Maskarada, Nathan, and Origala. On top of that, UniQ will not be attending IAS 2022. Credit and thanks to everyone who made UniQ happen: •Han •4rotr •Carmaster93 •Omologata •Bolt •T_ndo •T3STAR •OneForgottenWorld •Ace •Kai Wish the best in the future for all the brands out there. We’ll release more information about the Maskarada, Nathan, and Origala soon. I've talked with UniQ's CEO, who told me that the company's departure is the result of the firm not being strong enough to move forward along with the CEO going off to college, not being able to put time into the brand with keeping up in class. He said it isn't confirmed that he'll stay in the Autoworks Discord. On another note, Razzo made a very saddening post regarding (Omologata) Sergio's deteriorating health. The photo shown above was sent October 10th, with the CEO announcing the company's closure and leave from the RAI coming in shortly after UniQ announced it's own closure. RIP Razzo and RIP UniQ.

  • Helpful ROBLOX Studio Plugins

    So, as a not-so-amazing builder, there are some plugins that not only make building CSG cars easier, but building in general. Here are some of my personal top picks (that I actually use) that may or may not be a big help to those looking for new plugins to up their creations! Disclaimer: None of these are mine! I credit the original creators within this article, as well as the DevForum post releasing the product if I can find it. I claim no ownership on any of these. These are all found via the DevForum and are made by reputable scripters. None of the makers of these have endorsed me. Finally, read the descriptions for more info. Click on the pictures to go to the plugin page, and click on the name of the plugin to go to the DevForum post for it (once again, if I found it) Layers, by cornprices: Archimedes Two by Scriptos: Stravant - GapFill & Extrude by stravant: This isn't going to get announced in Autoworks as it's just a filler post while I work on non-CarBlox stuff.

  • Industry Digest 18: Thunor Bringing the Thunder

    Headline: Electility's New Thunor On October 1st, Electility held their "Off The Grid" keynote, where CEO 4rotr unveiled the company's new Thunor. The sedan is said to make 1130 horsepower and have 957lb-ft of torque. The company claimed the Thunor will be the most powerful public production sedan in the industry with the highest range of 1255km (750 mi) since this is an all-electric car to go up against the Elektrisk Pluto Plasma, which we'll see what the limited model will have in store since the Pluto is still in development. The automobile is expected to arrive in 2022 in three flavours: Thunor, Thunor FS Edition, and Thunor Phantasma starting from 338 622, 424 284, and 510 528 Canadian Dollars. It will be coming to Japan, Europe, the UK, and Australia. It it confirmed by 4rotr the Thunor will not be available in the United States and availability in Canada and other parts of Asia is not mentioned, so don't count on it coming, but that could change later this year, and the beginning of the next. Update 4rotr has added an update to the Thunor following publishing. It will be available in other Oceania regions, the euro pricing is for ROI only at the moment, and the sedan will be only available in right-hand driving configurations alone. Hiroto Updates Kenzo's Hiroto launched the week of IAS back in August, it was not complete at the time, and the company has been working on finishing it to be the best it can be. CEO Renkiraa announced on September 29th that the Hiroto will be receiving an interior as well as a refreshed exterior design. The Kenzo Hiroto will also get more powertrain options with the model refresh. The technology inside the coupe will remain to a minimum as the CEO wrote the cars from Kenzo will focus on the driving experience over advanced technologies, a contrast to Colt, who is attempting highly advanced technologies seen in few places besides the company. After a landslide poll (19-0) on Oct.1st, Renkiraa also told the public the refreshed Hiroto will be getting teased as we head along to Autoworks' Winter Showcase. He updated the press release to add that the interior was finished and is now in the process of being exported and tested. Later that day, we got news the car was in testing, we would get no more teasers for the car, and a poll on the engine. The Kenzo coupe's refresh will be fully debuted at the Showcase (which I expect to take place in December over Christmas break, but that's just me.) Sedagli by Uemuki Uemuki Group has launched a new brand called Sedagli. Three days ago (Oct 2.), Adinsapo teased the taillight design of the company's new car. Alongside Adinsapo, LumiusRBLX, lushbeta3, and Alaconuriss were also working on the project. Uemuki Group's automotive division had has a mild controversy over how many cars based on Adinsapo's CFC07 platform were releasing, specifically from Sonya over the years. Sonya has since stopped selling most of its CFC07 cars. Sedagli and Uemuki have remained radio-silent on the project save for a few leaks from the team on the project itself. The new automotive is called "FB29" but few outside the Uemuki Admin know what's fully going on. Sonya has been forbidden to use the new platform. Built by some of the best builders in the industry. We have gotten no information on when the first cars using this platform will be releasing. CarBlox will follow up when we see the new cars arrive. Chroma Constructor's League Looking For Teams Over two months (or so) after the grand opening, CCL is still looking for teams. Currently, the league has it's own Chroma Racing Team, MART-Chroma, a joint team between Marvino Automotive and Chroma, Zanic Motorsports, and Aurora's Racing APEX team. CCL posted an advertisement of sorts on October 3rd, so if you're interested in racing for your brand or team, check the link down below. The racing league is operating within the ROBLOX Automotive Industry more than the ROBLOX Racing Community, which could be a factor in the small amount of teams. Possibly advertising to more racing-focused audiences may get more RRC teams either racing at CCL or partnering with RAI brands as well, though I am not marketing guru.

  • Industry Digest 17

    Hard to write due to school, but was able to finish this Digest. Also, yes, I couldn't think of a good pun/headliner for this one so there is no headline. Enjoy! Centrum Soon This is the all new Nucleus Centrum! If you were present at IAS 2021, you may remember the early prototype shown at the show. If not, here is the front of that from CarBlox's Discord server below. Comparing the two at the front, it's clear to see the differences, such as boxier blindside mirrors that are a smidgen closer to the body, a singular light bar with two small probable turning indicators, some black (grill or blacked out) accents added underneath the lights, replacing the black/dark grey base curve on the older version, and the newer looks more polished overall (as to be expected). IssizArda, CEO of Nucleus, has not told us a release date or plan, giving us only three cryptic yet self explanatory words: "Centrum is ready". We expect the car to drop soon. Origala Delayed Twice More When you make a automobile as hyped as the UniQ Origala/Venus' Viteza Spyder (Chroma doesn't seem to be making their own take on these cars), expect a TON of orders. So far, only Electility, Gothard, and Uemuki CEO/Owner 4rotr has gotten their car, and that was back in July. Now, v3terann, CEO of UniQ, has said, quote, "Though sadly there was some miscommunication and some technical difficulties about and with the Origala but overall we are glad you got to see the Origala and the all-new Maskarada concept." This was on the IAS ended and, quoting again from the 28th of August: "Origala production will be taking a pause due to personal issues." Now, what personal issues are causing delays, we all know. CEO v3terann CRASHED his Hyundai Genesis Coupe earlier this week, and the car is possibly totaled. He flipped a truck, but thankfully, he is unharmed. Due to this event, he is putting his company on hold. Everyone who pre-ordered an Origala has been understanding following this event thankfully and he isn't hurt. As of today, the production pause is still in effect, and UniQ has not sent out the second Origala. The company says it will release the model publicly but it wants to get the pre-orders out to those people first. Proton Reveals New Horizon SUV In late August, Proton, owned by qrzaDev, revealed it's new Horizon full size SUV in video form. It was at the Cars & Coffee, but due to my laptop's extremely poor specs, it never fully loaded in for me, as well as Proton's CEO wanting a video for it. The company plans on showcasing it at well, the Winter Showcase that is being hosted by Autoworks. Say "Hiya!" to Maia! i_BOLT has started a new company underneath Quo Automotive called Maia. This Japanese brand looks really nice and is working on it's first car: a bus featuring a design that is the same on both sides. Though, do not mistake it for being omnidirectional. We saw it originally in action in this video here and here. The release date is not known. We also got a glimpse at the Maia Kaeru, but it doesn't seem to be the bus shown at first. We'll follow up as time goes on. For the first time in CarBlox history.

  • Industry Digest 16: EUA Without the "U"

    Headline: The Split of Espila and Unity This past week, a lot has happened in the ro-automotive group formerly known as Espila Unity Group. Unity's sub-brand Prakt (formerly Jupiter) made a car called the Vertyg that looked similar to the Lyx Okant. That got struck down when Espila CEO Han threatened to kick Unity out of EUA if they didn't cancel the car despite it being a-OK with Lyx's CEO, then when the CEO of Unity did exactly that and closed Jupiter AND Unity's autonomous driving start-up Arus, they chose to rebrand Unity. Only for Espila to remove Unity from the big picture entirely by rebranding to Espila Venus Automotive Group, with both Espila and Venus being owned by HanCS75. Even though without Unity, EUA wouldn't have existed. With that, Unity left EVA entirely and the company's CEO Bryan publicly said this, quoting: To be honest, everything has been going down hill since the Prakt Verktyg was teased. Slowly but surely Unity is dying and I'm starting to give zero F's about it He wished EVA well. This marks the end of EUA, and CarBlox wishes both Bryan and Han well with their endeavors. On another note, Kuno shortly left after Unity and is considering joining either Windsor or Uemuki Group. How the 2021-2022 School Year is Effecting Automakers It's the start of a new school year for many in the RAI, no matter when it starts. For American CEOs, it has started recently in late August. For Germans it will be later in late August. For me, Catalyst_0, school kicks in September 1st, so ironically, the stereotype of school starting in the fall seems to apply to Canadians more than the Americans who created the trope. Then again, their schools end earlier in June so it's a double edged sword. Many companies are announcing decreased activity as the school year kicks in and we all go back to seeing our IRL friends more than the ones we made in RAI. Unless you don't have IRL friends, which A) RIP, B) hope you make some, and C) can't relate. Only one can tell how the industry will be effected with the school year for many. Rapide Cincizeci: Record Maker Ever since the acceleration station Elektrisk Pluto Plasma was revealed to start at a whopping 30 dollar USD IN REAL LIFE, it's been interesting to see other companies create some super fast cars to compete with the sports sedan with a hypercar 0-60. Most aren't, since a 30 dollar virtual car is the stupidest thing you could buy in the industry and it seems full-size SUVs and sub-compact crossovers and hatchbacks are in style. But that hasn't stopped record-making-and-breaking hyper cars like the Rapide Cincizeci, and Zimper Zevic V12 attempting to break the 310 MPH speed record set by the Electility Fremtid. Today, the Rapide broke that record, hitting a max speed of 335 MPH, blowing both Electility's record and Chroma's attempt at 310 MPH and 245 MPH respectively. While Chroma's attempt was met with backlash on the announcement, Rapide did not. Both got sh*t on by 4rotr regardless according to the CEOs of Rapide and Chroma. But while Cincizeci has won the title of "Fastest Production Car", we don't know what any of the three companies have in store next. Except for me, since I work at Windsor Automotive Group, parent brand of Rapide, but I am not sharing. Wait for the CEO to te- OH WAIT... Outro Most of the other stories I have will be covered on our Twitter as we are going to be using our new Twitter account to cover shorter form stories so if you have a Twitter account, I recommend following so you can see them first hand as I won't flood content promotion in AW with CarBlox. May make Tweet Takes series at end of articles at the end of each week with links to all stories we covered on there. Good luck to people with the school year no matter when it starts, let's hope it's a normal year this time, and those who don't go to school anymore or were homeschooled, good luck with college or university or your job or whatever you are doing during the day.

  • Industry Digest 15: Everything you Need to Know About IAS!

    Headline: See You At IAS! As the Inspiration Auto Show draws ever closer, taking place this Saturday on August 14th, we have a ton of companies from P.I.O to AutoBloxx teasing what you will be seeing at the event. For those who weren't on the display list, only Marvino has actually addressed their non-attendance with a "We Won't See You At IAS 2021" post. Sonya also was supposed to attend, but then the firm dropped out when they closed and then opened again. Here are a portion of the teasers we have seen so far: This is from Nucleus, a car startup under E.U.A Group. This is from UniQ, but they didn't add a logo. From this image, Solara will be entering the mesh car space with the unnamed sedan beside the iconic Solara SPD Acclaim. We haven't gotten much from P.I.O's tease, but the CEO did mention the next Strada SUV from the British brand to feature bar headlights. Not confirmed. This is from Kenzo Motors since the others have logos and names on display. They are working on what seems to be a coupe to rival other sports coupes like the 2021 Krypton Vellon and 2021 Marvino Era GT. This is the Lyx Okant, the one on CarBlox's homepage that has been in development since this year or so. They are others, but there other things to cover. The confirmed event displays are as follows: Featured Displays Apex Motors - itzt Aurora & Gibson - (in order) Orrloz & Ono_One Auva Automotive & Velodo Motors - Aeuri Avanta Car Company - Zephyred, represented by Leadacid Awesion - Hipas_Account Colt Motors - Ono_Three Elektrisk - BlindedEpisode Eversor Automobiles & Kastell Motor Company - Cereal_Tree Hitoshi - Zemphira Quo's Automotive holdings: Hyperion & Lyx - (in order) BlindedEpisode & GT2R_S Konian & Fumi - T3STAR Krypton Motors - Paraxium NVNA - Avxnturador Standard Displays AutoBloxx Automotive - TheJellyNinja_XD13 Calvary - lilswaggjr Ceinder & Yosh Automotive - lookitswierdo Chroma - JetForce33 Electility - 4rotr Espila & Venus Automotive - HanCS75 Forward - MadeInChina14232 Gavril Automotive - Joshuaed17REVIVAL Hakumi - mlritc01 Kenzo (not the fashion label) - Renkiraa KOI - Adinsapo Nucleus Automobiles - Ardage (IssizArda) P.I.O Motor Cars & Trilize - Wooper (iLuhDuhPenguin) Poseidon - or_rx Siren & Tiger Automotive - AE86_Cxrolla Solara - lushbeta3 Sympex Cars & Tech - NLEGotcha Third Motor Company - Third (third448) Turtle Automotive - Intrxvert_ed UniQ - v3terann & MrBlimbo (carmaster93) Zanic - qrzaDev Sponsors Melqvist (Cereal_Tree)- https://www.roblox.com/groups/5967245 Rivion (Aeuri)- https://www.roblox.com/groups/793783 ROBLOX Vehicles Wiki (Autoworks)- https://roblox-vehicles.fandom.com/wiki/Roblox_vehicles_Wiki For CarBlox's coverage of the event, I am still deciding if we should continue with our usual method of article journalism or if I should start making videos since the event will be probably the biggest auto show we've seen in years with people in the ROBLOX Automotive Industry from all parts of the platform, heck the world, coming together at ONE venue. Here are some of the snapshots Autoworks Owner and the main person organizing the event shared: From what we have seen so far, all I can hope is that I can get access to my family's more powerful general desktop for the event since I know my laptop will not be able to get good looking photos of the event. We are also expecting the 2021 Inspiration Awards to take place during the August 14-21 length of IAS. According to Cereal_Tree, this is what can be expected for these big awards: This year we will have another awards ceremony for this year's attendees. "The Inspiration Awards are a set of four different awards which will be given out to those who have displayed truly outstanding designs and creations. Best Video Best Overall Display Design Best Overall Concept Vehicle Design Best Overall Vehicle Design Our categorical awards will be announced later. We are excited to see you at Inspiration Auto Show 2021!" The categorical awards haven't been announce yet, and I predict they will be revealed either a day before or the day of Inspiration Auto Show 2021. Ctyel Shows Off Prototype Clones Small-time CSG car company Ctyel showed off clones of it's prototypes, with a scale compared to the CEO Dev_Jar's ROBLOX avatar. We can see they prototypes include car such as coupes, single passenger cars, convertible and oher autos. The production of any of these cars in unconfirmed, but CarBlox will (probably if we aren't busy with IAS) cover any new announcements and developments. Project Ocean Closure Outrages Startup Owners After Project Ocean, a startup planning on bringing hydrogen fuel cell technology to the ro-automotive industry, closed down two days after announcing it's opening, multiple start owners are outraged. For privacy and drama-prevention reasons, I will not be naming them or their companies, but they were upset that the main reason for the death of the new firm was in people adding mean and rude reactions to the company's three posts, which allegedly caused the CEO to lose motivation and shut down the project. CarBlox will continue to develop the story if anything more comes out, but this is all that can be said for now without delving into information CarBlox is not at liberty to write. Update Pre-Publishing: A few minutes before this story was published, Oceanic's CEO has requested the company not to be revived, rendering the project 100% dead. Screenshots were given but they have been removed as they were never meant to be shared. The shots showed the CEO saying the company quote: " Sorry, but I don't want to know." and "But that's only a fictional concept, only a ROBLOX concept.". This confirms the not-so- nice reactions to the company's announcements were a big cause is killing the new company. An trusted anonymous source was the source of all this information. But there has been rumblings of the concept being revived under another name and company. (Edited 6:30 PM MST) Autonomus Driving in ROBLOX? Recently, talks of autonomous driving has popped up in the Autoworks Discord. It all started when Bryan, CEO of Unity, told me about his new project/start-up called Arus, which will be specializing in autonomous driving. We don't know much about the company but expect development to be slow as the concept is one of the most complex things possible at the moment in ROBLOX. Outro Thank you for reading this edition of Industry Digest! Making a standalone story on Chroma later today, so stay tuned!

  • ID 14 QUICK REPORT: Avanta's Back With A Bang

    A few Industry Digests ago, CarBlox reported on a teaser from ex-Roblox Automotive Industry titan Avanta hinting at a revival of the insta-recognizable brand. It was the logo getting redesigned, which you can see that story here. Now, this has culminated in the reveal of the 1988 Avanta Zeta Avard, a sedan sporting an inline 6 engine producing 230 horsepower. The car is going to be a mesh car looking from the pictures and will provide improved fuel economy and performance. The car is said to have a redesigned chassis, a independent suspension system, and class-leading saftey (for 1988 anyway). The car is expected to be a darling at Inspiration Auto Show, which starts August 14 and goes until the 21st. Mark your calendars, as CarBlox will be covering IAS, Avanta, and everything coming in the next weeks extensively. A quick report is a basically a story you'd find in Industry Digest as a standalone report, usually due to the story being missed and post editor breaking, preventing an edit to be made.

  • Industry Digest 14: August Autoshows Bring A TON of Teasers

    Headline: As IAS Impends, Companies Go 101% On Video Teasers Teasers from Colt, Electility, Gavril (or Divisor to be more exact?), Elektrisk, and Zanic have all released in video format! We got looks at the Elektrisk Pluto sedan, Zanic's Cinquecento seemingly supercar, Electility has just shown some footage of it's FX_2023 today, Colt has teased something that people think is the Colt SUV (Colt Charmander?), and Gavril's CEO started a new brand and teased an upcoming car that we know NOTHING about! We have only seen the full design of the Pluto and Cinquecento, and we expect Elecility to show more of it's 2023 car at IAS. I think of the same for Divisor and Colt. CarBlox will continue to update on more information. Here is a photo of the upcoming Electility. Also, yes, this is the rare occasion I speak about teasers on CarBlox now. Elektrisk Pluto Allegedly Capable of 0-60 in 1.9 Seconds. On July 28th, a ro-automotive industry video channel called Motorsports Review posted a video titled "The Tesla Killer Of Roblox!!! || Things You Need To Know About The Pluto". This video covered what people should be expecting with the upcoming luxury contender against the Colt Riolu, such as motor specifications. In this video, he mentions and references a video he saw on Twitter, which an alleged Elektrisk Pluto (possibly in the Plasma performance tier) goes from 0-60 in about 1.89 (1.9 for simplicity) seconds, which would destroy the Colt Riolu's acceleration speed. He says this number is approximate, so we did our own counting, and got an ever more ludicrous estimated 1.86 seconds (according to the Apple stock stopwatch). Either way, it is insanely quick if proven true. He then also said in the video he spoke with Elektrisk's Creative Director i_B0LT, and had this to say, quoting from the screenclip of his words in Motorsports Review's video: We don't have statistics yet but can confirm that one of the highest trims is planned to go beyond a 2 second 0-60 time. The offical wiki page for the Elektrisk Pluto states the Standard and Plus trims will feature dual-motors, while a tri-motor will be on the highest Plasma trim. This was also pointed out in the video. This is all alleged and subject to change. CarBlox will follow-up on any new information we get about the luxury sedan and possibly, part time electric muscle car. EUA Owner HanCS75 Considers Closing Espila and Venus Leaks A few weeks ago a source told me that the CEO of Espila was considering closing Espila Automotive and continuing with Venus and E.U.A Group. The alleged reason has to do with the recent models from the company looking extremely similar to real life Toyotas. This writer thinks Espila closing is unlikely due to being a core half of E.U.A Group, parent brands of companies such as Argon, Triad, Kakudo, and Nucleus.
