The Schubert Six is a vehicle in Mafia.
Design[]
The Schubert Six is a four-door sedan. When introduced, it serves as a mid-range late-1920s/1930 car between the Bolt Model B and Falconer, described as appearing very similar in design to the Falconer, although several differences may be noted, most notably the car's range of body colors (red, white and black). Other distinctions of the Schubert Six from the Falconer include a wider rear window, a split rear bumper, and two running board-mounted spare tires on both sides of the car (as opposed to one on the driver's side of the Falconer.
Influence[]
The Schubert Six is based on the Chevrolet Series AD Universal sedan.
Performance[]
Both the Schubert Six and Schubert Six Police share the exact same attributes in performance, as indicated below from the Carcyclopedia:
- Weight: 1346 kg
- Power: 46 hp
- Maximum speed: 60 mp
- Engine: Six cylinder
- Swept volume: 3179 ccm
- Gear box: Three speed
Translated into performance in gameplay, the car, as mentioned earlier, is a mid-range model circa 1930 that is generally speedier than the Bolt Ace and Bolt Model B but slower than the Falconer (albeit lighter). Among the whole range of cars in the game, however, the Schubert Six, like the aforementioned cars, will eventually end up being eclipsed by newer, faster models. The car's resilience to damage is fair, being able to withstand damage from its own speed, but fares more poorly in high speed crashes with faster vehicles.
Availability[]
The Schubert Six only begins to appear as part of scripted traffic during the car chase in Ordinary Routine (also set in 1930), and becomes available to the player during Fairplay (set in 1932), when Tommy Angelo is taught how to lockpick one by Ralph and is allowed to drive one; the car becomes common during the mission, but will eventually be crowded out by newer models, disappearing as a traffic vehicle beginning in You Lucky Bastard!
