## 📍Parts

All parts have a durability value, theoretically the more advanced & expensive the higher the durability, but there are also advanced parts that are easily damaged. When the durability value is zero, the vehicle cannot be used and driven because of safety factors, and the part must be replaced. Parts can be recycled and broken down into raw materials.

## 📍Raw materials

1. Tier1 common, Tier2 advanced, Tier3 rare (the following are the raw materials of the parts)

### Tires&#x20;

Material：Rubber&#x20;

Flexibility：Very soft, soft, medium, hard, very hard tires

### Engine&#x20;

Material: iron, aluminum alloy&#x20;

Transverse engine - most common today&#x20;

W-type engine - higher output than V-type&#x20;

Rotor engine - smaller, high consumption, high fuel consumption&#x20;

In-line engine - high stability, most cars, low maintenance&#x20;

V-engine - smaller size, two systems, slightly more expensive to maintain, stable acceleration&#x20;

Horizontal-to-horizontal - low center of gravity, increase handling, expensive maintenance, long working hours, maintenance trouble

### Brake

Brake Disc - Base, Type 1.2.3&#x20;

Material: Stainless steel, iron, aluminum alloy&#x20;

Brake calipers - single, double, and six-piston calipers. The most common is the "two-piece cast" material, followed by the "two-piece forged" material, the "one-piece cast" material, and the "one-piece forged" material, in four grades

### Suspension

Shock Absorber, Linkage&#x20;

Material: stainless steel, aluminum alloy

### Gearbox&#x20;

Material: iron, aluminum alloy&#x20;

Parts: pressure plate, clutch plate, flywheel&#x20;
