Other playlists like the Vintage Garage and 911 Legacy offer a look into the growth of cars throughout the decades. Electric Odyssey gives the player a look at some of the fastest electric vehicles out there including the Lotus E-Xpress while also showing off more off-road vehicles like the Hummer E-Xpress.

Overall, the closed beta focused on five playlists ranging from a journey through car history to electric vehicles.
