Tight Driving Model
Impressive Realism
Technical Hiccups
Project CARS 2 follows up on the original with tight handling and plenty of content. It's not always stable, but it crosses the finish line close to the front of the pack.

Critic Reviews for Project CARS 2
Project Cars 2 improves upon its predecessor for a racing game of unprecedented scope - unfortunately hampered by a series of small issues.
Serious racing for serious racers. Extraordinarily convincing at each of the disciplines on offer.
Project CARS 2 plays like a pumped-up version of the classic TOCA Race Driver 3 from 2006, redressing many of the complaints levelled at the original. The handling has been tuned to a T, the content is excellently curated, and the amount of variety and racing available in it is delightfully daunting.
Some niggling issues mar the experience, but Project Cars 2 is a good title for the franchise
Project Cars 2 builds on its predecessor with improved handling and impressive scope, but it still suffers from unruly AI and a slew of bugs.
Despite the Race Director that has it out for the player, and some issues with perspective in cockpit view, Project CARS 2 is one of those games that can fill an entire niche on its own.
AI issues aside, Slightly Mad Studios has put together an astoundingly deep racing simulator with an enormous amount of content.
One of the best racing sim ever done, yet there's still room to improve on a couple of areas of its proposal.
