I intended it like "car will suffer less damages" but this indeed means that car cannot destroy anything anymore: and it seems very strange because max speed is over 90 km/h and as soon a tree is hit car stops abruptly.

I think that actually matches what would happen if you drove a real can into real tree

It's not a bug. It's a feature ;)

almost...because in Factorio car receives a minimum amount of damage when hitting a tree.

Since you cannot fire from car anymore, you cannot even open "road" between forests firing with a shotgun or flamethrower.

Use of car seems to be restricted to secured plain areas without trees, so mostly inside your factory.

This is a feature indeed.

For running through forest, there is the tank.
