Hey, sim racers! Kunos Simulazioni has teased us with an exciting glimpse of Assetto Corsa Evo, and the sim racing world is on fire. Slated for a grand unveiling at the ADAC SimRacing Expo from October 18 to 20 in Dortmund, Germany.
The New ACEVO Teaser
If you missed it, you need to stop what you’re doing and check it out. We see Kunos co-founder Marco Massarutto going full throttle at Vallelunga in a jaw-dropping Lamborghini Huracán GT3 EVO2. But here’s the exciting part—this wasn’t just for show. It hints that both the car and track will be playable in Evo, a fitting nod since Kunos HQ is based right there at Vallelunga.
A Garage Full of New Rides
But it doesn’t stop there. The teaser trailer also suggests a dream garage of fresh cars waiting to be unleashed. We’ve got the nostalgic Alfa Romeo Junior, the beastly Alfa Romeo Giulia GTA, the versatile BMW M2, and for you drift enthusiasts, a mean Nissan 350Z. Oh, and let’s not forget the Legends racecars, now with their crazy three-cylinder Yamaha engines.
Something for Drifters
One of the biggest standouts in the trailer is the clear focus on drifting. From the footage, it’s obvious that Assetto Corsa Evo will embrace the sideways art more than its predecessor. Expect tighter handling and a greater emphasis on perfecting those thrilling drift lines.
Going Electric
If drifting isn’t your thing, there’s more. Nils Naujoks from BS+ COMPETITION was seen steering an electric Hyundai Ioniq 5 N around the Nordschleife, signaling that Evo is also giving electric racing the attention it deserves. And for fans of classic beauty, the Alpine A110 was caught dancing across a rain-soaked Vallelunga skid pan. Variety? Oh yes.
Early Access and Playability
So dont forget you won’t have to wait until January 2025’s Early Access to get your hands on Assetto Corsa Evo.
