The poster is this revision’s delivered GLB (its top detail tier and wheels) rendered under the Kiln review lighting rig (review-neutral-v1) on the neutral backdrop, with nothing retouched. The 3D view applies the same rig (review-neutral-v1): its light directions and strengths, exposure, tone mapping and backdrop.
For your engine. The download is a standard glTF 2.0 binary (GLB) with PBR metallic-roughness materials, and the vehicle files also declare the optional MSFT_lod extension for their detail tiers. glTF stores materials, not lighting or tone mapping, so your engine decides how they read. This 3D view tone-maps with Review Neutral, the Khronos PBR Neutral construction with a smaller glare offset (0.015 instead of 0.04), at exposure 0.9. Its Tone mapping control also shows ACES and Linear, for comparison.
The runtime GLB holds LOD0, LOD1 and LOD2, linked with the glTF vendor extension MSFT_lod. A scene that reads the extension swaps the tiers by distance. A loader that does not know it, such as the 3D view above, draws LOD0 and the four wheels, and the triangle, mesh and size figures on this page count exactly that.
Up to about 60 m
About 60 m to 250 m
About 250 m to 1,500 m
The distances are worked out from the screen-coverage thresholds stored in the file, for a 50° vertical field of view at 16:9, so another camera moves them. The file's last threshold stops drawing the vehicle beyond about 1,500 m. The wheels stop being drawn at about 250 m, where LOD2 starts.
Four nodes named Wheel_FL, Wheel_FR, Wheel_RL and Wheel_RR sit outside the detail groups. Each pivots at the wheel centre with the axle along local Z, so rolling is a rotation about Z and steering a rotation about Y. On the box truck and the bus each rear node holds the dual pair.
