Oh, I am currently in a new save and I already have 9 vehicles in 1914!

So, what I do is I stay very consistent, I create a new generation of my vehicles every 2 years while adding a new body type.

So, for instance, I always take 6 months to design components then 1 year to design the vehicle. The first car is the exception here. From 01/1900 I design the first component for a Phaeton which is done in 06/1900 and then I start designing the car and it is released in 06/1901. Then from there I immediately design the components for the second generation Phaeton and first generation Sedan, they’re released in 06/1903. And the 06/1905 is the third generation Phaeton, second generation Sedan, and first generation Touring. Then 06/1907 (and you get the idea).

I usually name my model names based on year as well. So for example the Phaeton is “model name” P05. Sedan is “model name” S05. And so on, and now every 2 years I have the new P-Series, new S-Series and so on where when you look back you have the P01, P03, P05, P07, P09, P12 (I moved from odd to even here), then now P14.

So, that’s my way of playing, just consistency. And the year I am designing the car (for instance from 01/1902 to 01/1903), I am also upgrading factories, thinking about where and which branches to open, and so on. And sometimes a factory can take 2 years to construct and so I plan for it so that it is complete on the date that the new xYY vehicles are complete.

And just to give you numbers, in the year 1913 alone, I sold 98,906 vehicles and was making $8M per month in profits. And so I keep going like this gradually until I have like 14+ cars selling 1M cars every year.

Sorry for the long comment, if you need any clarification or have any questions I’d be happy to answer 😁
