American Truck Simulator: 1.58 Update - New Truck Garages

[♕-SlawkA-♕]

We’re back with a sneak peek at what’s new in the upcoming 1.58 update for American Truck Simulator. This time, we’d like to shine a spotlight on something which many of you interact with daily during your trucking adventures - truck garages!

Over the years, garages have become an essential part of building your trucking empire. They’re not just a place to store your trucks and hire drivers, but also a space that represents your progress and success on the road. That’s why our teams decided it was time to give them a well-deserved refresh.

As part of the 1.58 update, our designers have reworked the truck garages, bringing a fresh new look that better reflects the quality and level of detail you’ve come to expect from American Truck Simulator. From updated interiors to improved visuals and atmosphere, these changes are designed to make your garages feel more modern, immersive, and enjoyable to spend time in.

Our teams carried out a full visual rework of all three garages. The main goal was to refresh spaces that have become severely outdated and bring them up to date. They approached this rework with considerable ambition and genuine care. Their goal wasn’t just to update old models, but to turn the garages into a place players actually enjoy returning to. A space that feels rewarding to upgrade, explore, and appreciate down to the smallest details.

"The garage rework makes use of our latest graphical tools and rendering solutions currently available in the game. To meet the level of quality we were aiming for, we also revisited and refreshed a large number of older textures and models, introduced new lighting, and built an entirely new set of custom interior props from scratch - along with many smaller improvements throughout," says our Producer, Mino.

Bringing all of this together wasn’t easy, especially due to optimization constraints. The new garages still needed to remain reasonably close in performance cost to the originals, which were created more than ten years ago. Inevitably, this meant making decisions on what to leave as ideas for future updates. Even so, we believe the final result will meet your expectations and be a pleasure to explore and discover.

The garage rework launches for American Truck Simulator as one of the steps towards the upcoming Project Road Trip. We also plan to bring the updated garages to Euro Truck Simulator 2 further down the line.

This rework is another example of our ongoing commitment to refining existing features alongside introducing new content. While garages may not always be the first thing you think about when hitting the open road, we believe these improvements will make a noticeable difference in your day-to-day gameplay experience.

We truly believe that you will love the updated appearance of the garages and appreciate the care and effort that went into their redesign. Whether you’re managing a growing fleet or just checking in on your drivers, the new garages aim to make those moments feel more rewarding.
