Buyers now keep their secrets. What each kind of buyer wants in a car is no longer shown up front. You learn it by designing cars and watching how they sell, or by paying for a buyer survey. New "Survey buyers" buttons on the Design screen. Pay to learn more about what working, middle-class and wealthy buyers want. Every new design teaches you a little more. Stick with a model and your picture gets sharper. The Research and development screen now fits on one screen with no side-to-side scrolling. Clearer wording for starting regions, wages and buyer wealth. Plainer descriptions of factory production methods. The Racing screen now shows which regions have your dealers, and no longer scrolls sideways. A fairer, more playable first few years on Standard. Top bar alignment fixes and other polish.

A fairer start and a cleaner screen. Early game is easier to get off the ground. New companies now start with a bit more reputation, and having only a few dealers no longer ruins your sales in a region. New hires now start work, and their effects begin, only after their first wage is paid at the end of the month. Crew turnover only shows up when it's high and you can do something about it. Cleaner screens: the dotted underlines are gone and the factory page has less text.
