Cars, Aspirations, and Attraction.

I see I was very wrong.  I had no idea.  Useful stuff.  As we know, on occasion Prima is flat-out wrong because they're working with pre-release information from the developer, but it still says something.

Most of the effects are intuitive.  The more expensive the car, the better for most cases.  Sports cars are a bonus for Fortune, Minivans for Family.  Some make less sense, like why the Sedan has a bonus for Knowledge Sims.

I'll have to expirement to see if this is a significant factor.  I don't know what the scale is - if it's the same as, say, Want rewards, it's a trivial bonus that is outweighed by a single Tickle action.

Because sedans are pratical, energy efficient cars. They make logical sense.

That's what I would have thought too.  Sedans are supposedly sensible cars, and the Knowledge Sim is supposedly the sensible Sim.  I noticed, however, that Popularity Sims aren't represented in the chart.  I guess they don't care?

Maybe the download car suits them.
