Database Entry

 * Cars should be made well... but never too well. Archer's board of directors learned this truth the hard way when, in 2023, they launched the first Hella series which proved so reliable and easy to repair that it nearly drove the company to bankruptcy. Many who bought a Hella in those days - for a generously affordable price, it's worth noting - often never found themselves on the car market again. Even today, more than fifty years later, Archer Hellas area fairly common sight on the streets of Night City. Of course, time has taken it's toll, leaving many of them rusted and screechy. Still, they continue to move people from A to B; that is, unless they crash into something along the way. In those cases, there isn't much left to rescue from the wreckage. Despite their functional reliability, the car body is manufactured cheap, brittle materials. Fortunately for most car owners, if you lose a bumper and a leg in the accident, both are easily replaceable.

Acquisition
A unique Hella EC-D I360 (which has more horse power and some distinctive details) is V's initial and only car during Act 1. After starting Act 2, when the player gets in the car, a Delamain cab will wreck the Hella, starting the quests Human Nature and Tune Up. After going to Delamain HQ and finishing Tune Up, you will have to wait a few in-game days in order to get back the Hella fully repaired and complete Human Nature.

Trivia

 * V's variant has a small Roach decal on the right side, a reference to Geralt of Rivia's horse Roach in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.
