After extending the launch date of GTA VI to May 26, 2026, Rockstar has dropped the second trailer for GTA VI, and we’ve been watching it on repeat. Naturally, we paid close attention to the cars, and Rockstar didn’t just make up these rides from scratch. After analyzing the footage closely, here’s what we think are the real-life cars that inspired the vehicles in the game.
Another thing is that, compared to GTA V, GTA VI has a high number of real-life car-inspired models—at least, that’s what we can say after seeing the trailer. The previous game used too many custom cars, and even if they were copied from real-life ones, their details weren’t as close to what we saw in the GTA VI trailer 2.
Chevrolet Chevelle
This was also the car that we saw in the first trailer last year. And we mostly saw Jason, (the main protagonist) driving it during the heists. Therefore, we have made conclusion that this red color car will be the default vehicle of the Jason similar to that white color muscle car of Franklin in GTA V.
Mercedes C63 and Lamborghini Gallardo
These are the NPC car. And we think it will be mostly found in rich areas of the Vice City just like in GTA V where downton Santos had high-end super cars and Franklin’s area had old crappy hatchbacks.
Compared to GTA V NPC cars, these are heavily modified and looks cool compared to stock NPC cars in GTA V.
Ford Taurus and Ford Crown Victoria
That’s the exact version of Ford Taurus Police Interceptore even the tailights are copy pasted. The other car you see is the Ford Crown Victoria, not exact match but looks same to Victoria. Unlike GTA V in which all four states had different police intercepters, it may possible that GTA VI also uses the same strategy so we don’t know which state’s police interceptor is this one.
Ford Raptor
This pickup seems too close to a Raptor. Our team visited the Rockstar Games official website and scrolled the whole page of GTA VI. There, we saw this character and we found out that this man is the close friend of Jason and this Raptor is his main default car.
