The Hotbox is a new vehicle introduced in the beta version of Schedule 1 and will soon be added to the base game as part of the Cartel Update. This new car can be a bit pricey; however, it offers decent speed, allowing you to travel quickly. Additionally, it has extra storage space if you want to go shopping or transport goods elsewhere. With that said, this vehicle has a good balance between cargo space and top speed.

You can purchase the Hotbox in Schedule 1 through the Hyland Auto Shop for $30,000 in-game cash. It’s located in the southern part of Northtown, where you can purchase all the vehicles in the game. Keep in mind that you need to deposit some cash in the ATM, as the shop only accepts card payments.

When Is the Cartel Update Arriving in Schedule 1?

The release date for the Cartel Update in Schedule 1 has yet to be revealed. However, it might arrive before the end of August 2025. For now, you can access these features by downloading the beta version of the game.

Make sure you back up your save files in the game, as the beta version can be a bit buggy at times and may corrupt your saves. You can find your save files in the “AppData\LocalLow\TVGS\Schedule I\Saves” on your PC.

Is the Hotbox Worth Buying in Schedule 1?

The value of the Hotbox in Schedule 1 depends on what you really need. If you want space to move items around, you are better off buying the Veeper, which is cheaper and has 16 storage slots. If you want something fast, buy the Cheetah, which costs $40,000, just $10,000 more than the Hotbox.

For now, the Hotbox doesn’t really offer anything worth purchasing. The only reason you might want this vehicle is if you are collecting all the cars in the game. Otherwise, you are better off buying the vehicles you really need.
