What affects the driving of the truck directly

euro-truck-simulator-2

I want to know the things or events that changes the performance of the truck (except the upgrades on the shop), just a brief summary or even a small list.

One of those that I want to know is for example, if the rain speeds up the truck, or does it modifies the handling a little bit, like from the other driving games (e.g NFS series), and also another one is that if the different roads (the brown-colored, the gray highway, etc.) do also changes the acceleration or just cosmetics.

Damaging the Truck can cause performance malfunctions. Of course, the elevation or angle the truck is driving at affects the speed a small amount. I've noticed that the newer-looking roads can be smoother, and therefore improve handling, acceleration, etc.
