SCS Software regularly teases future vehicles during streams, blog posts, and community events. Community lists can be exciting, but they often mix confirmed releases, work-in-progress models, background AI traffic, trailers, and long-term plans.
Use this page as a watchlist, not a release-date calendar.
ETS2 Items to Watch
Recent community summaries have highlighted several ETS2 vehicle topics:
| Vehicle or Update | What to Expect |
|---|---|
| Iveco S-Way 6x2 | More chassis variety for a modern Iveco platform |
| Mercedes-Benz Actros L | A newer Mercedes option with strong mainstream appeal |
| Renault Trucks T update | A refresh target for players who like modern French trucks |
| Scania Streamline remaster | A potential quality update for an older fan-favorite truck |
For ETS2 players, the most important question is whether a preview becomes a driveable truck, a remaster of an existing model, or part of the AI traffic and world detail set. Those categories feel very different in game.
ATS Items to Watch
ATS previews often include a wider mix of trucks, classic vehicles, pickups, cars, and trailers. Some names that have appeared in community watchlists include classic cabovers, modern pickups, sports cars, and specialized trailers.
The key distinction:
| Type | Likely Player Impact |
|---|---|
| Driveable truck | New ownership and career option |
| Trailer | New freight or visual variety |
| AI traffic vehicle | Makes the road network feel more authentic |
| Classic vehicle | May appear as world detail, traffic, or a future special feature |
How to Read SCS Previews
Do not assume every model shown in a stream is close to release. Vehicle work can be slowed by licensing, interior modelling, physics setup, audio, brand approval, and compatibility with existing customization systems.
For overseas players, the safest expectation is:
- Wishlist nothing based only on a rumor.
- Wait for an official blog post or Steam page before treating it as a product.
- Separate "shown in development" from "available in the next update."
- Expect older truck remasters to take time if they include cabin, chassis, and accessory work.
- Watch whether the vehicle is for ETS2, ATS, or both.
What Would Matter Most
For ETS2, the biggest player-facing wins would be a modern Mercedes Actros L, deeper Iveco coverage, and remasters that bring older trucks closer to current visual standards.
For ATS, more classic trucks and trailer variety could make the road world feel broader, especially if they connect to older American truck culture instead of only modern fleet vehicles.
The watchlist is useful because it helps you set expectations. The actual purchase decision should wait until the vehicle is playable, reviewed, and clearly described in the official release notes.
