The neon-drenched streets of Night City just got a turbocharged upgrade! After a nail-biting delay, Cyberpunk 2077's colossal Patch 2.3 finally dropped on July 17, 2025, delivering a vehicular revolution that's got every edgerunner buzzing. Buckle up, choombas—this ain't your average tune-up. CD Projekt RED went full throttle with overhauled customization, slick autodrive tech, and four jaw-dropping new rides that’ll make you ditch fast-travel forever. Switch players, hang tight—your chrome-plated joyride is coming soon! 🔥

🚗 Vehicle Customization: Your Wheels, Your Way

Night City's garages are about to become art studios! Patch 2.3 injects steroids into vehicle customization with 205 generic options and 168 unique mods—letting you pimp everything from rusty sedans to high-end Quadras. The real showstopper? Rayfield CrystalCoat finishes, once reserved for luxury sports cars, now gleaming on motorcycles and budget rides too! ✨

  • Paint paradise: Metallics, pearlescents, and chameleon finishes that shift color under streetlights

  • Lore lovers note: Nomad vehicles stay ruggedly stock (no CrystalCoats allowed!)

  • 32 vehicles eligible for TwinTone/CrystalCoat combos—mix matte hoods with glossy fenders!

🏎️ New Rides & Quest Unlocks

Four fresh beasts roar into the garage, but they won’t come cheap—or easy. Each requires completing new quests, turning heists into high-stakes showroom auditions. The standout? The Yaiba ARV-Q340 Semimaru, straight from the Cyberpunk 2077: Kickdown comics! 💫

  • 💰 Cost: Heavy eddie investments (start saving those credchips!)

  • 🔓 Unlock mystery: Will quests gift the car, or just the keys to buy it?

  • Insider tip: That Semimaru isn’t just pretty chrome—rumor says it handles like liquid mercury

🤖 Autodrive & Cabs: Your Robo-Chauffeur

Struggling to drive without pancaking pedestrians? Meet your new best friend: autodrive! Activate it on any road, and your car smoothly navigates to quest markers—like a loyal robo-butler. It disengages during combat or heavy damage, but otherwise? Pure zen. 🧘


| Feature          | Autodrive          | Delamain Cab       |
|------------------|--------------------|--------------------|
| Cost             | Free!              | Moderate eddies    |
| Combat Ready?    | Disables in fights | Always peaceful    |
| Roleplay Vibes   | ★★★☆☆             | ★★★★★ (AI banter!) |

Plus, Delamain cabs make a comeback! Hail one anywhere for a stress-free tour through Japantown’s glow. Why drive when AI can chauffeur you past cherry blossoms?

⚙️ Under-the-Hood Upgrades

Not just about wheels! Patch 2.3 polishes every corner of Night City:

  • 📸 Photo mode expansions: New filters and poses beside your tricked-out Caliburn

  • 🎮 Console magic: Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) for buttery-smooth chases

  • 🛠️ Quality-of-life tweaks: Faster menu loads, fewer glitches during rain-soaked races

😕 The Speed Bumps...

Not everyone’s celebrating. The patch’s laser-focus on vehicles left some wishing for third-person mode or New Game+. For players who treat cars as mere A-to-B boxes, this update feels like tuning a guitar nobody asked to hear. Yet for gearheads? It’s a love letter written in engine oil.
