The NPCs speak English or Spanish from all over Spain and Latin America, and also look like it. Wheelman depicts downtown Barcelona, a place where a single bullet being fired would make national news, as a Gangsterland divided between three major "cartels" whose members routinely engage in gunfights with firepower that would be alarming even in the most violence-striken part of Mexico or Brazil. This is a quote of the page on the trope in tvtropes

Some example are things like how the music tend to be very latinamerican(though to be fair that can be heard in spain too but still) and how many characters seem to be more latinamerican looking than spaniard looking, and even though there is a big diaspora of latinamerican inmigrants, the total of the population of spain considered of foreign origin is around 10% from what I read in sources, and half of that is from other european countryes so the idea of showing like half of the people looking so latinamerican is just silly and shows that trope is still aliveĪnother thing is that there is many cars that seem to be from the 70's-60's, even some used by the police, and honestly I barely see cars from the 80's on the street so yeah thats also a inacurate thing, specially being used by the police, wich also there is the mention that the region where barcelona is located, named Catalunya, has his own police force besides the general spanish police though thats not a big deal if they got wrong,but hose old cars do since if the developers visited the city they probably would have noticedĪnother thing to add is the fact that from what I have seem there is npcs speaking in the local catalan language, which makes the inacuracies more facepalming

This videogame has the same trope that many other USA based media has that they seem to mix latinamerica and spain into one unique stuff, as you all probably know spain is in europe, this is more funny by the fact that the developer mentioned that they visited the real city of barcelona, so honestly I think this was done on purpose, in fact even the trash bin looks spot on like the ones on the city Contact:, done in 0.002 seconds.This may be of interest, I am from latinamerica currently living in spain so I want to say some stuff about the depiction of the country in the game Driver: You Are the Wheelman), Driver: San Francisco, Mercenaries 2: World in Flames, Test Drive Unlimited, Grand Theft Auto IV, True Crime: Streets of LA, Whirlwind over Vietnam

In addition to behind-the-wheel challenges of speed, stunts, and style, players will control Burik in missions that have him out of the vehicle and on foot, waging fistfights and gunfights from a Grand Theft Auto-style third-person perspective. Burik's got a shady past he thought he'd left behind, but chivalry calls on him to ply his underworld street racing skills one more time, to infiltrate a crime organization and rescue a woman from his past. Players take control of the character Milo Burik, an expert wheelman, modeled after Diesel. An open-world interpretation of Barcelona, Spain, is the setting for the violent driving adventure. Wheelman is an automotive-action video game built on the framework of a Hollywood movie, starring Vin Diesel in the lead role.
