RENNSPORT is an up-and-coming sim racing title that already features some of the best cars in the real world of motorsport today. With an ultra-competitive GT3 field, some of the fastest prototype LMDh cars around, and a variety of other tin-tops including TCRs and one-make series, it’s often the case that you’ll feel spoiled for choice when picking your next purchase in the sim. Let’s take a look at the most current car list in Rennsport, some may surprise you.
RENNSPORT GT3 Cars
Aston Martin V8 Vantage Evo GT3
The first sim racing title to have featured the facelifted Evo variant, RENNSPORT’s British offering in the GT3 class is the Aston Martin V8 Vantage Evo GT3.
The greatest strength of the Aston Martin is under acceleration and braking. Whilst it can be more receptive to techniques such as trail-braking than its front-engined peers, it is often at its best with aggressive braking before turn-in, the shortest time spent turning through the corner, and the earliest moment of getting back onto the throttle to power out of the exit.
Audi R8 LMS GT3 EVO II
The only V10 in the GT3 offering, Audi’s R8 LMS GT3 EVO II represents the high-pitched and high-intensity end of the GT3 field.
The Audi is also the only mid-engined GT3 currently on offer in RENNSPORT. This then means that there is a unique style of driving required to push this machine to its limit compared to its rivals, with the car favouring more trail-braking and some aversion from taking kerbs compared to the front-engined car which can often take more of a hit without becoming unsettled.
BMW M4 GT3
BMW’s M4 GT3 has often been a preferred weapon of choice in the GT3 class. A front-running front-engined car in the real world of GT3 racing, it has often boasted similar credentials in RENNSPORT.
The key to getting the most out of the Bavarian machine is driving with sheer aggression. This means attacking the kerbs more than its rivals, making the most of a heavy front end that is not easily unsettled by bumps on the track to get through the corner in the shortest line possible. Whilst its rivals often require being more aggressive on the throttle, or being more aggressive off of the throttle, the way to make the most out of the BMW’s strengths is by being more aggressive mid-corner.
Ford Mustang GT3
The Blue Oval’s latest offering for the top flight of GT racing arrived on the scene in 2024 and now competes the world over in various GT3 series. It arrives in RENNSPORT as part of the Launch Edition, being a part of the garage for anyone who pre-orders the sim.
The Mustang joins an already-competitive field of front-engined GT3s with elements that place it in close contest with its rivals. The 5.4-litre V8 engine is halfway between the fellow V8s of Aston Martin and Mercedes-AMG, whilst the body and aerodynamics place it in close competition with the mighty BMW M4 GT3. This means that it produces a balance of torque without on-throttle oversteer, aerodynamic grip without high-speed understeer, and an ability to handle kerbs whilst not compromising on turn-in.
McLaren 720S GT3 Evo
McLaren’s latest GT3 offering sits in direct competition with the Audi R8 LMS GT3 EVO II as the only other mid-engined GT3 in the sim. However, whilst Audi’s offering has a screaming naturally-aspirated V10, McLaren instead opts for a twin-turbo V8.
The McLaren, due to having a different type of engine to its only mid-engined rival, has a unique driving style. Whilst it also rewards a smooth driving style that prioritises a higher minimum speed and is not a fan of being thrown over kerbs, the twin-turbo V8 allows the driver to pull the car out of corners more. This makes the McLaren a good option for drivers who are new to the GT3 class, especially if you are transitioning to GT3 racing from single-seaters.
Mercedes-AMG GT3 Evo 2020
The three-pointed-star’s sole offering in RENNSPORT is currently enjoying mixed fortunes depending on the Balance of Performance in each of the series it competes in. However, in the sim, it boasts some unique strengths that you will want to utilise to extract the most performance.
Strangely for a front-engined car, the techniques used to make the most out of the car are more similar to that of a mid-engined one. Whilst it can take some kerbing and some aggressive driving techniques, you can get more out of the car with smoother driving and easy transitions into and out of the braking and acceleration zones. Consistency is key for the Mercedes-AMG.
Porsche 911 GT3 R (992)
RENNSPORT’s cover car, Stuttgart’s latest GT3 offering is both the only straight-six car and the only rear-engined car.
Driving the Porsche will mean practicing techniques that you will only likely use in other 992-derived machinery. Whilst some elements such as trail-braking will be useful with other cars, the greatest skill to master with the 992 will be managing weight transfer. With a heavy rear-end comes some improved cornering, but it also means that hitting kerbs particularly hard will unsettle the car and also means that too much turn-in for a corner can create an unhelpful amount of oversteer.
TCR Cars in RENNSPORT
Audi RS3 LMS TCR (2021)
Audi’s TCR offering has been a staple of tin-top racing since the TCR formula was introduced. With the second generation having enjoyed a lengthy stay at the top since 2021, this is very much the “old reliable” in the class.
The Audi RS3 LMS TCR is the shorter of the two cars currently on offer in RENNSPORT. This often benefits the car in tighter and narrower stretches of track, as careful drivers will be able to make the most of the shorter wheelbase with more aggressive turn-in without having to worry about the rear end of the car stepping out as much as you might with its rivals. It is a relatively-forgiving machine that is easy to get up to speed with.
Hyundai Elantra N TCR
The Korean manufacturer Hyundai is best-known for having made more homologated TCRs than any other manufacturer, with 3 different models competing in TCR races in some form since the formula began. Its current highest-level efforts are led by the Elantra N TCR, with the first generation that features in RENNSPORT boasting titles in WTCR as well as its successor in the TCR World Tour.
The Elantra is noticeably longer than its rival from Audi. This then informs how you get the most out of the car, with it often performing better in faster and more gradual corners and often not boasting the same “pointiness” in the slower-speed and tighter corners. Getting the most out of this car requires you to play to its strengths, taking a little bit more of a kerb and a slightly wider line through the corner than its rivals.
GTP Cars
BMW M Hybrid V8
Bavaria’s LMDh offering is built on the same Dallara chassis as Cadillac’s V-Series.R and the up-and-coming McLaren effort that will debut in 2027. Complete with a 4-litre V8 motor, it has spent much of 2025 being the pace-setter in IMSA’s qualifying sessions.
The way to make the most out of the BMW M Hybrid V8 in RENNSPORT is through aggressive driving. It has quite a pointy front-end, meaning that it will perform better than its rival in slower corners if you brake aggressively and jump back on the throttle quickly out of slow-speed corners. However, in its base setup that is used in fixed-setup races, it is often more susceptible to bumps and changes in surface than its classmate. This is less-pronounced at flatter and smoother tracks such as Orchard Road Street Circuit, but is more-pronounced at more undulating and bumpier tracks such as Road Atlanta.
Porsche 963
Stuttgart’s offering in the LMDh class has enjoyed relatively-mixed fortunes in 2025, with a domineering GTP campaign in IMSA contrasting with a quieter effort as reigning Manufacturers’ Champions in WEC.
The best way to drive this LMDh, which features a 4.6-litre V8 on a Multimatic chassis, is with smoother driving that gently transitions between braking, cornering, and accelerating through the twists and turns of a circuit. Whilst it can handle the bumps and kerbs slightly better than its classmate, the easiest way to tame the Porsche is by following its natural flow and gently manipulating it through faster, sweeping corners where it is most in its element.
RENNSPORT GT4 Cars Available
Audi R8 LMS GT4
Audi’s GT4 offering still retains some of the key parts of the road-going R8’s formula: mid-engined, V10, with a 7-speed flappy-paddle gearbox to boot.
With less downforce than its big brother in the GT3 class, you’re not going to expect the GT4 Audi to seamlessly glide through corners at more than 250kph. But a lot of the key techniques to being fast in GT3 are still the same in GT4. Trail brake to smooth out the corner, take a slightly wider line through the bend, and maintain a good minimum speed to make the most of the platform you have underneath you. And don’t worry about 7th gear, you’re probably not even going to need it on the Döttinger Höhe.
BMW M4 GT4
BMW’s GT4 offering is one of the newest on the market, with the G82 platform following a successful GT3 iteration with an equally-successful GT4 variant.
As with the Audi, a large amount of what makes the BMW M4 a successful GT3 car is also the case with the GT4 machine. In fact, a slightly higher ride height than the GT3 means that it handles kerbs even better than its big brother does! This machine loves to fight the corners, and often it will come out of the corner a winner. Whilst you will need to think a bit about how you approach a corner, as GT4s do not have the same power on-throttle or on the brakes as a GT3 machine does, a lot of the driving style that helps you to get quick behind the wheel of the GT4 carries over to the GT3 and vice versa.
Other Cars You Can Drive
BMW M2 CS Racing
A popular one-make series that makes its way into any sim racing title, the BMW M2 CS Racing drives like a rear-wheel-drive touring car with Traction Control. With limited setup changes by design, this car is about as stock as you will find in the sim.
The key to being successful with the BMW M2 CS Racing is to treat it more like a souped-up road car than the thoroughbred GT racers. That means that it is better over the bumps and kerbs than most other cars, and it also means that you will likely never use 1st gear nor 7th gear due to the gearing of the road-derived gearbox. It is a more forgiving car than some of the other cars in the sim too, with a Traction Control system that prevents most potential spins and an ABS that allows you to use all of the brakes without any lockup in basically every situation.
Porsche 911 GT3 Cup (992)
Porsche’s ever-successful Cup variants appear in pretty much every major sim racing title on the market. However, depending on the series it is replicating, a sim may choose to only include one or two of the variants on offer. The most common one will not have Traction Control nor ABS, however the version that RENNSPORT has features both!
That being said, you are not forced to use both if you wish to drive without any driver aids. But having both certainly can make your job a bit easier. Dialling both in will allow you to attack the corners without spinning, and will also allow you to be aggressive on the brakes without the chance of a lockup.
Porsche 911 GT3 R (992) RENNSPORT
A special collaboration not made with any real-world series in mind, the RENNSPORT edition of the 992 GT3 R boasts a little bit more of everything to make the ultimate racing machine.
The naturally-aspirated engine kicks out around 620hp, meaning that it boasts a power-to-weight ratio of 2kg/hp that goes above and beyond what you would expect from a typical GT3. So does the downforce, with a massive rear wing and a developed front splitter that go beyond GT3 regulations allowing a driver to attack corners faster and easier than you might find in other GT series. The main consideration that you will need to apply when driving is that you might not feel the car running out of aerodynamic grip, which means that at points you may find yourself driving this car more like a GTP than a GT3.
Porsche Mission R
Porsche’s electric racecar has made multiple appearances in sim racing titles, and the Mission R’s wheel has even made it into sim racing as a rim that you can put on your own wheelbase! However, whilst it has a dedicated fanbase who enjoy driving it, the Porsche Mission R is still a bit of an untouched gem in sim racing.
Two key considerations when driving the Mission R in RENNSPORT is that it is the only electric vehicle and the only car with constant four-wheel-drive. This comes with two important considerations when driving the car flat-out. The first is on-throttle understeer, which you will often expect with pure four-wheel-drive cars when compared to the GTPs that only become four-wheel-drive when the Hybrid kicks in. The second is a lack of engine braking, meaning that you will often approach a corner with heavy braking before turning in off-throttle and then powering out of the corner with the full torque of the electric motors.
Praga R1
The Praga R1 has become a fan favourite in sim racing since Jimmy Broadbent took its fame to new heights in his real-world racing exploits. A thoroughbred prototype racing machine, this car is a great way to learn more complex techniques that you will need to know to be the very best in RENNSPORT.
Despite a lower power output than the GT3s, clocking in under the 300hp mark in the sim, an incredibly light weight of roughly 650kg means that you will need to be careful with that right foot. Add on that this rear-wheel-drive beast does not have any driver aids like Traction Control or ABS and you have a real monster on your hands. But if you can get the feeling right, making sure to look after your brakes on entry and your tyres on exit, then you’ll find very quickly that you can make the aerodynamics work and you’ll be powering away from your rivals in no time!
Coming Soon – GT1
Mercedes-Benz CLK LM
A car so dominant that it killed the series it competed in, the Mercedes-Benz CLK LM won every round it was entered in for the 1998 FIA GT Championship. Its 5-litre V8 engine pumped out nearly 600hp, and its sleek body was ruthless in its aerodynamic efficiency.
In competition against its GT1 rivals, it only failed to win one race – the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The winner of this race, the Porsche 911 GT1, will seek to reignite this rivalry in the Endurance Classics Part 1 DLC.
Porsche 911 GT1
Porsche’s GT1 offering is famous for appearing in numerous different guises through its time in endurance racing. The version that will feature in RENNSPORT is the Le Mans-winning 911 GT1-98.
Made with the FIA International GT regulations in mind, this car even had a road-going version developed for it. Whilst it was never the outright fastest of the GT1 class, reliability helped Stuttgart’s finest take a record-breaking 16th overall win in 1998 before it was withdrawn from international competition at the end of the season.
Coming Soon – Group C
Porsche 956
A record-breaking, record-setting car that defined the Group C era, Porsche’s 956 will be enjoyed in all of its glory when RENNSPORT’s Endurance Classics Part 1 DLC releases.
The Group C icon’s record lap around the Nürburgring Nordschleife can be recreated in all of its glory in RENNSPORT, and with the addition of the Circuit de la Sarthe as part of the same pack, you can try and recreate its dominant 1983 Le Mans win. In the legendary 24-hour race, Porsche occupied 9 of the top 10 spots as the works cars came home, locking out the podium. But, as the famous ad said at the end of that year, nobody’s perfect.
Coming Soon – Class 1
Alfa Romeo 155 V6 TI
Who doesn’t love a screaming V6 engine? Alfa Romeo’s 155 V6 TI was utterly dominant in the 1993 DTM series, and remained competitive until the demise of the series in 1995 and its sister series, the ITCC, in 1996.
Italy’s top offering in Class 1 racing could rev as high as 11,500rpm, with trick downforce and four-wheel-drive helping it stay glued to circuits from Norisring to the Nürburgring, and from Silverstone to Suzuka.
Mercedes-Benz C Class V6 DTM
A late-era Class 1 winner, taking both the DTM and ITCC titles in 1995, Mercedes-Benz’s C-Class V6 was the three-pointed star’s response to Alfa Romeo’s 155.
Building on an already-competitive V8 platform, an AMG-tuned V6 helped power other updates and upgrades to the weight distribution and aerodynamic balance to give Mercedes-Benz the competitive edge in DTM. Reignite the rivalry with Alfa Romeo when Touring Classics Part 1 drops!
Coming Soon – Group A
BMW E30 M3
BMW’s E30 M3 was arguably one of the most versatile of the Group A class. Whilst the version that will feature in the Touring Classics Part 1 DLC for RENNSPORT is the DTM example that won titles in 1987 and 1989, examples of the Group A BMW would win touring car and rally championships the world over. This included the World Touring Car Championship in 1987, the Irish Tarmac Rally Championship in 1990, and even the fearsome World Rally Championship round of the Tour de Corse in 1987.
The version that will feature in RENNSPORT boasts a 2.5-litre I4 engine that produces roughly 370hp. This allowed it to remain competitive until the dawn of the Class 1 era that redefined the touring car scene.
Mercedes-Benz AMG 190 E Evo
Much like with the BMW E30 M3, Mercedes-Benz’s AMG-tuned 190 E Evo went on to enjoy legendary status from its appearances in the DTM. Who doesn’t remember the iconic rear wing of the Evo 2, or the sleeker but equally appealing Evo 1?
Powered by a 2.5-litre I4, the Mercedes-Benz didn’t have as headline-grabbing a power rating as its Bavarian rival but more than made up for it in the corners thanks to its aerodynamics and sleek shape. See if you can best its old rival once again when it arrives in the sim!
