Rennsport may not have been fully released yet, but there are a number of cars we know will be in the game.
Rennsport is set to challenge the sim racing titans of Assetto Corsa, iRacing, and rFactor 2, but which cars have been confirmed so far? Here’s everything we know about the Rennsport car list.
Latest news - Beta 1.8.5 adds new cars
The latest update for Rennsport adds a range of new content to the game. Along with the addition of Fuji Speedway to the game's track list, Beta 1.8.5 also sees two new cars for racers to take for a spin.
The Porsche 963 is an endurance racing beast. Its twin-turbocharged V8 engine is supplemented by a 50 kW electric motor for peak performance.
Along with the Porsche, the BMW M Hybrid V8 also makes its Rennsport bow. This endurance racer is making its WEC debut in 2024, making it the perfect addition to the racing sim.
Rennsport Car List
These are the cars confirmed for Rennsport so far:
- Audi R8 LMS GT3 Evo
- BMW M4 GT3
- BMW M Hybrid V8
- Mercedes-AMG GT3 Evo
- Porsche 911 GT3 R (991.2)
- Porsche 911 GT3 R (992)
- Porsche Mission R
- Porsche 963 LMDh/GTP
- Porsche 911 (992) Cup
- Porsche 963
As you can see from the list, most of Rennsport’s cars are GT3 racers, positioning the game as a rival to Assetto Corsa Competizione. These cars will be familiar to anyone who has played ACC as it's the official GT World Challenge game.
However, recent updates have started introducing more World Endurance Championship cars, suggesting a change of direction moving forward.
Porsche Mission R Concept coming in 2024
One exception to the GT3 rule is the electric Porsche Mission R concept.
Previewing Porsche’s vision of an electric customer race car, the Porsche Mission R’s power is sourced from two electric motors generated over 800 kWh (over 1,000 hp) combined.
That’s enough juice to enable the Mission R to hit 0-60 mph in less than 2.5 seconds. It was also designed for virtual racing as the cockpit doubles as a racing rig for esports.
Developer Competition Company has confirmed the Porsche Mission R will be joining Rennsport as part of the game's 2024 roadmap.
Rennsport Car List Expansion
Other car types are expected to come to Rennsport. In a Q&A with RaceDepartment, Competition Company revealed plans to add "hundreds of cars” to Rennsport in “three or four years.”
Release date
As for the release date, Rennsport is targeting a 2024 release window for the full game. This has been confirmed in the game's 2024 roadmap, after missing the original date in December 2023.
You can still try out the new sim racer for yourself before then if you sign up for a beta key and get chosen by the developers. Competition Company has promised key giveaways will be taking place with most beta updates.
With Unreal Engine 5 graphics, a new esports platform, and modding support, there's exciting potential for Rennsport to shake up sim racing!
