De beelden die we tot nu toe hebben gezien van DiRT 5 gaven al de indruk dat de game een vrij divers aanbod aan voertuigen heeft. Precieze details hieronder ontbraken echter nog. Tot nu, want Codemasters heeft nu meer informatie gegeven over de voertuigklassen die in de racer aanwezig zijn.
In totaal bevat DiRT 5 maar liefst dertien verschillende voertuigklassen. Hieronder vallen onder andere soorten voertuigen die we al vaak voorbij hebben zien komen in de DiRT-games, zoals traditionele rallywagens en de rally cross klasse. Verder kun je ook diverse oudere, iconische wagens verwachten, evenals trucks en Cross Raid auto’s, die speciaal gemaakt zijn voor de ruige terreinen waarover je rond scheurt in de game.
Hieronder kun je de lijst met voertuigklassen en de beschrijvingen ervan nalezen. Codemasters laat weten dat er voor de release ook nog een compleet overzicht van alle voertuigen gedeeld wordt. DiRT 5 komt op 9 oktober uit voor de PlayStation 4, Xbox One en pc. Op een later moment verschijnt de game ook voor de PlayStation 5 en Xbox Series X, maar het is nog niet bekend wanneer dit precies zal zijn.
- Cross Raid – Built specifically to overcome tough terrain, our Cross Raid class combines speed, strength and durability for some truly awesome trucks, including the Volkswagen Race Touareg 3 and the Laffite G-Tec X-Road, making its video game debut!
- Rock Bouncer – Huge wheels, mad suspension, a big rollcage, and that’s about it. Oh, and you’re in the middle of it all. DIRT 5’s rock bouncer is purpose-built to conquer the most intimidating terrain. Use its traction, acceleration and flat-out stubbornness to beat all obstacles in our most extreme events.
- Formula Off Road – This class houses our monstrous WS Auto Racing Titan – a true off-road beast with huge ridged tyres and incredible power. Ideal for DIRT 5’s Stampede events, the Formula Off Road class is where you go for something capable of traversing just about anything – and fast.
- Rally Cross – A staple of DIRT games, the cars in our rally cross class are designed for all-terrain speed and getting sideways as soon as possible. Perfect for our tighter circuits and twisty corners, the likes of the Peugeot 208 WRX can turn on a dime and go from 0-60 almost as quickly.
- Classic Rally – Roll back the years with iconic machines that popularised the concept of going fast and flat-out on any possible terrain. From the Fiat 131 Abarth Rally, to the Porsche 924 GTS Rallye, these off-road heroes will remind you that age is but a number with some serious power and performance.
- 80s Rally – A golden age of off-road racing, no DIRT game would be complete with some of the most successful off-road cars of the 1980s. We’re combining series favourites such as the Ford RS200, with incredible newcomers like the Porsche 959 Prodrive Rally Raid, for a class that just gets better over time.
- 90s Rally – Relive a time when off-road truly went mainstream, and recreate rivalries with the Subaru Impreza S4 and Mitsubishi Lancer Evo VI. We’re also giving some love to the more pint-sized extreme machines of the 1990s – keep an eye out for those!
- Modern Rally – Take today’s powerful and incredibly engineered off-road racers into a completely new world. The likes of the Citroen C3 R5 represent the peak of modern mechanical race-craft, which you’re free to tear around DIRT 5’s unique extreme locations and events – both circuit and point-to-point
- Rally GT – Even the most refined GT cars built for tarmac can’t help but get DIRTy. The Rally GT class brings you these desirable cars kitted out with off-road specs, including the Aston Martin V8 Vantage GT-4, and Porsche 911 R-GT.
- Sprint – The DIRT 5 class dedicated to our truly incredible sprint car, sporting wheels of all different sizes, huge wings and 900bhp – perfect to rip up dirt oval tracks and get sideways. A unique class for a unique racing experience.
- Pre Runners – Think of the best road-going SUVs and all-purpose vehicles. Now think of them draped on off-road kit and suped up for extreme racing. That’s the Pre-Runners class, featuring incredible race-ready versions of the Aston Martin DBX and Cadillac Escalade 2020.
- Unlimited – Trucks. Big trucks. Trucks built for the most demanding off-road events in the world. Trucks that’ll give you the confidence to floor it and power over all the rugged terrain DIRT 5 has to offer. Jump in the Jimco Unlimited Truck, Brenthel Industries Unlimited Truck and more and show the most challenging events who’s really in charge.
- Super Lites – Low on excess weight, high on action, these rockets have power-to-weight ratios that’ll make your eyes water. Have fun taming the Ariel Nomad Tactical, Exomotive Exocet Off-Road, and more. These compact cars are built for all-terrain speed and an all-out assault on the senses.
