- There has been numerous reports that some new cars were added on the Nintendo Switch version (e.g: Lamborghini Invencible) caused the refueling time reverted to the time used in Global version, which would not match the refuel time when the car was added from Wanderlust and Fifth Anniversary Season Update and beyond.
