Luchs lacking tourque and acceleration

Hi i just unlocked the Luchs and played abt 20 matches or so with it and i noticed that it doesn’t like so accelerate whatsoever im getting overtaken by a Bradly or a BTR with a worse power to weight ratio.
I also noticed that if you try to accelerate from a standing position on a hill, the Luchs will simply slide down the hill.
Gaijin if you see this pls have a look at it.

Wiesel is better. Luchs is just too big to be a rat vehicle. So I wouldn’t bother that much.

Yeh its mobility is really bad considering how quick it is in trials footage.

dont worry the scimitar is missing the springs off of its suspension and two of its cylinders at the moment you’re not alone

Luchs is shockingly dissapointing. Awful mobility, ammo still nerfed, no quiet engine. What a shame.

@Gaijin developer Team,

I just did a test on the Test-Range and it is shocking!!!.
In my test, I used a Stopwatch and compared an unmodified (because unlocked) BTR-80A with Luchs A2
Did a race from when I pushed “W” until passing the front of second Target-Tank
BTR: ~30:00 seconds
Luchs: ~32:00 seconds

Ingame Data of Vehicles:
BTR: 15,75 PS/t
Luchs: 19,6 PS/t

Please fix this. I am sick of Vehicles of some nations being better ingame than they supposed to be or some nations Vehicles being worse than they should be compared to what they were in Real live.

The luchs is missing its torgue converter. Best is to support the bug report:

Adding it would result in practically double the gears which would makes it much quicker.
