Snowrunner - which vehicles are the best?
In this article dedicated to the game Snowrunner, we’ll take a closer look at the vehicles included in the base game without DLCs. Please note, this is my subjective opinion: Everyone can draw their own conclusions...
Top 3 Vehicles
These top three vehicles were chosen because I use them the most (after 150+ hours in the game). Each of them has some unique characteristic...
Azov 5319
For me, probably the best vehicle without DLC, I complete most missions with it.
- small fuel tank
- much faster than Azov 64131
- more capable than Azov 64131
- supports nearly all add-ons
- excellent for overloading
- high fuel consumption; you need to constantly plan refueling
- less stable in side tilts compared to Azov 64131
The top feature is terrain passability.
Voron AE-4380
An incredibly agile and fast machine, I use it a lot.
- very fast
- low fuel consumption
- 2 cargo slots (can also mount a crane)
- very stable
The top feature is speed.
Western Star 6900 TwinSteer
This is a great vehicle for large loads. I mostly switch between TwinSteer and Azov 5319 as needed.
- can be obtained relatively early
- low fuel consumption
- 4 cargo slots
- no add-ons, not suitable for overloading
- without upgrades (elevated suspension and 4WD), it struggles in tough terrain
The top feature is 4 cargo slots.
Other Useful Vehicles
Other vehicles that might come in handy...
Azov 64131
This is a great all-purpose vehicle. Until you have the Azov 5319, Azov 64131 will likely be the top vehicle.
- the main advantage is that you can get it very early in the game
- low fuel consumption
- very capable in challenging terrain
- slower than Azov 5319
- supports many add-ons
DAN 96320
The DAN is especially suitable for towing trailers.
- relatively fast
- lower fuel consumption compared to Azov 5319
- not as capable as Azov 5319 but very practical with a trailer
- subjectively a bit more springy and bouncy, so it goes through quite a bit of terrain
Azov 73210
The Azov 73210’s advantage lies in its three cargo slots.
- great all-rounder
- supports an add-on with three cargo slots (but without a crane) - unfortunately, three slots are not very practical
- low fuel consumption
- low suspension, so it’s less capable in tough terrain than Azov 5319
And Vehicles That Didn't Perform Well
Here are the vehicles I can easily do without :-)
Azov 42-20 Antarctic
- slow in terrain
