BeamNG.drive nasce da una comunità di appassionati. Nel 2011 alcuni sviluppatori di Rigs of Rods, un simulatore open source, decisero di creare un suo successore spirituale. Il 28 maggio 2012 il nuovo studio BeamNG pubblicò su YouTube un video intitolato «Revolutionary soft-body physics in CryEngine3»: le auto si deformavano in modo realistico negli incidenti, e il video superò il milione di visualizzazioni in una notte.

Il gioco doveva basarsi su CryEngine 3, ma i costi di licenza e altri problemi spinsero il team verso una versione modificata del motore open source Torque 3D. Il 3 agosto 2013 uscì una demo gratuita con un solo veicolo e una sola mappa, insieme all'accesso a pagamento a una versione alpha più ricca.

Nel 2014 la comunità di Steam votò per BeamNG.drive su Steam Greenlight, e il 29 maggio 2015 il gioco arrivò in accesso anticipato. Lo studio, con sede a Brema in Germania, ha continuato ad ampliarlo con nuovi veicoli, mappe e collaborazioni, come quella con il simulatore Automation, che permette di importare le auto progettate dai giocatori.
