Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown Season 1 is now underway as of October 2nd, 8 AM UTC. This season introduces new challenges for you to showcase your driving skills as well as various items to unlock through the new Solar Pass. Two exclusive cars are also arriving this season: the Audi RS e-tron GT and the Pininfarina Battista.


This season marks the launch of the Solar Pass, which we decided to offer to all players. The pass consists of 25 levels that you can progressively unlock by participating in any race. Each level will allow you to earn exclusive rewards, such as:

• Stickers
  
• Rims
  
• Emotes
  
• Clothes
  
• Solar Coins
  
• The exclusive Board Committee Chief outfit

Most importantly, reaching the final level 25, rewards you with the stunning Audi RS e-tron GT, a high-performance electric car from the Grand Tourer category.


For competitive drivers, Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown launches its first ranked season, allowing racers to climb the ranks from Bronze to Solar Court. The player with the highest number of Solar points at the end of the season will be crowned Solar King or Solar Queen!

Solar Coins and exclusive rank stickers will be awarded based on your final score. Players who reach Solar Court at the end of the season will also unlock an exclusive hypercar: the 2021 Pininfarina Battista! This car will be exclusive to Solar Court members during the following season and can’t be purchased by other players. After this temporary exclusivity period, the car will become available to everyone in one of our car dealers.


Alongside the competitive season, the game introduces Live Events: weekly challenges that offer fresh content. New live events will drop every Wednesday at 8 AM UTC, ensuring constant variety throughout the season.

The first live event, titled '2CV Anniversary,' celebrates the classic Citroën 2CV. This legendary car was unveiled 76 years ago at the Paris Motor Show. Players who complete the event will be rewarded with a unique Stripped Breton Jacket. Three special races, exclusively for 2CV models, are now available on your map.

Whether you're cruising the streets of Hong Kong Island, racing to climb the ranks, or collecting cars, Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown Season 1 offers new challenges to every kind of player until December 18th. Season 2 will follow directly after, with the exciting return of Ibiza and a new free Solar Pass!
