The build will be playable in Messe Dortmund from October 17 to 19, giving simracers and influencers firsthand access to new content and features ahead of a wider rollout.
KUNOS Simulazioni and 505 Games are bringing to Sim Racing Expo 2025 (Dortmund, Germany) a preview build of the 0.4 release of Assetto Corsa EVO .
During Sim Racing Expo, visitors will be able to experience a selection of Special Events which combine some of the cars and tracks which are upcoming with this fourth Early Access step, releasing in November.
Version 0.4 of Assetto Corsa EVO will be one of the most content-rich Early Access updates yet, featuring 9 new vehicles in 11 total variants, along with 3 new circuits offering 11 unique layouts —all meticulously reproduced using laser-scan technology:
- Nurburgring:
including the Nordschleife in all of its layouts and the Nurburgring GP, the most beloved racing compound of planet Earth, nested within the Eifel region’s mountains in Germany, is coming back also in Assetto Corsa EVO with all of its most popular layouts like Nordschleife, Nurburgring GP, the combined layout of Nurburgring GP and Nordschleife (also known as the “24H layout”) and the popular Touristenfarthen layout, or BTG (Bridge-to-Gantry) for the track-dayers out there; - Oulton Park:
One of the most iconic and romantic racetracks from the United Kingdom is available in both the International and Foster layouts, ready to be challenged by all the cars of AC EVO. Oulton Park, set in the rolling countryside of Cheshire, England, is a 4.3 km (2.7 mi) circuit famed for its natural elevation and technical rhythm. Its fast, sweeping corners like Druids and Cascades make it both thrilling and unforgiving. Beloved by drivers and fans alike, it’s a staple of British motorsport, hosting BTCC, GT, and historic racing events. - Road Atlanta:
Coming for the first time ever in the Assetto Corsa franchise, Road Atlanta is a 4.09 km (2.54 mi) road course located in Braselton, Georgia (USA), known for its fast, flowing layout and dramatic elevation changes. Home to iconic events like Petit Le Mans, it features challenging corners such as the Esses and Turn 12’s downhill plunge onto the main straight. Its combination of technical precision and high-speed sections makes it a favorite among both professional racers and sim drivers worldwide.
Sim Expo visitors will be able to taste these wonderful racing locations with some of the new cars coming with 0.4, in a set of Special Events:
- GT
- Ferrari F40 LM – In the early 90s a group of engineers was tasked with making the Ferrari F40 ready to race. The road car debuted with a 478 hp V8-Biturbo engine – not enough for the competition in IMSA at the time. Thanks to bigger intercoolers, up to 2.6 Bar of turbo pressure and new camshafts the engine would put out 720 hp. The floor was designed to produce enough downforce to pin the power on the road. Though, the explosive nature of the engine remained a characteristic challenge for this legend. Can you tame it?
- Road
- BMW M3 (E46) CSL – With the M3 CSL BMW brought racing technology to the road. Light weight materials were used whenever possible, reducing the weight to just 1.3 tons. Together with the
sequential manual gearbox only 360 hp from the straight six are needed to accelerate in under 5
seconds from 0 to 100. An LSD makes sure no power goes to waste, neither when hunting lap times nor drifting about north of 7000 rpm. - Porsche Cayman 718 GT4 RS – The Porsche Cayman GT4 RS is Porsche’s mid-engine masterpiece. A track tool with a license plate. The traditional flat 6 engine produces 500 hp right behind the driver. The addiction however, is the way the engine revs above 8000 rpm effortlessly time and time again. A 7-speed PDK, rear wing and diffusor complete the package to take it to the track in AC EVO.
- Mini John Cooper S – The Mini John Cooper S Mk VI (1990) represents the ultimate evolution of the classic Mini, combining its lightweight chassis with sharp handling and iconic British styling. Factory-equipped with the 1275cc A-series engine, it delivered lively performance and precise road feel. With the John Cooper B16 conversion kit, the car was transformed into a pocket rocket—swapping in a 1.6L Honda B16 DOHC VTEC engine capable of over 160 hp. Any of its new drivers should be aware of the challenge it is to tackle this tuned power on such a lightweight FWD car with such small tyres.
- Ferrari Daytona SP3 – The Daytona is celebrating Ferrari’s 1967 victory in the 24 hours of Daytona. The specs suggest it could win as well: Placed in the middle of the car, twelve cylinders without any hybrid elements or turbo chargers, produce a raw 840 hp at just over 9000 rpm. The electronics on board and plenty of downforce make it appear easy to stay on top of the power. You will be able to customize various parts and details before going sub 7 on the Nordschleife.
- Toyota Supra MKIV – The Toyota Supra Mk IV stands as a 1990s performance icon, blending Japanese engineering precision with an iconic design which came straight to nowadays, where it’s still the symbol of high performance Japanese coupe RWD cars. Powered by the legendary 2JZ-GTE twin-turbo inline-six, it delivered up to 326 hp and very wide tuning potential, often exceeding 1,000 hp in modified form around the globe. Immortalized by motorsport success and pop culture—especially The Fast and the Furious—the Mk IV became a symbol of tuner culture. Today, it remains one of the most revered and collectible sports cars ever built and it still competes at the highest levels in drifting competitions. KUNOS Simulazioni’s handling team also brings a fulldrifting variant of the car, which comes with higher torque, full bodykit, specific drifting wheel angles and steer lock composing a full drifting-spec which was somewhat deserved by the Supra
- BMW M3 (E46) CSL – With the M3 CSL BMW brought racing technology to the road. Light weight materials were used whenever possible, reducing the weight to just 1.3 tons. Together with the
Visitors will be able to drive the Assetto Corsa EVO 0.4 preview at several Sim Racing Expo exhibitors, with a main stage being the FANATEC booth.
