I recommend this game and would qualify the car you're driving as a mobile secondary base linked to a main base with a constant upgrade systems and survival elements through procedurally generated levels.
You basically travel from your base to procedurally generated levels where you either loot to improve your base/car, or progress through the story, or both at the same time if you have the mental capacity to multi-task.

+ Punishing difficulty, without being overly difficult
+ Satisfying upgrade mechanics (Absolutely love to solve the weird things your car sometimes makes)
+ The voice-overs are of good quality and the French translation is solid
+ I like the fact that if you spend too much time taking your time looting it can play against you (for genuine mistakes or game design/spoiler-free reasons)
+ Massive game progression features.

- Looting is not tedious, but can be repetitive (Use the T shortcut to take everything, and remaining stacks with space)
- The damaged features of your car will affect your driving so much you need to think of everything, including the kits to carry for your repairs
- The ratio time/exploration can be stressful in some levels
- The RNG before leaving an area can punish your whole run

+/- For the reasons above, Playing this game for several hours can be physically and mentally exhausting after 1 to 3 hours of playing. I haven't had this feeling since Fallout 4 in Survival mode. I don't know yet if I like this feeling or not.

Overall, it's a solid, original & well designed game and will please medium/hard&Expert solo survivalists. Highly recommend
