Quick answer: on November 6, 2026, Rockstar released six in-game GTA 6 car screenshots, each next to a real car built by West Coast Customs, through Hypebeast’s Hypedrive channel. The six are the Grotti Cheetah, Albany Buccaneer, Progen Emerus, Invetero Coquette, Albany Manana and Pegassi Tempesta. The game launches on November 19, 2026 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
This guide covers what each car shows, separates what is OFFICIAL from what is REPORTED and lists what Rockstar has not said yet. Visual cards for each car are in our GTA 6 Garage.
What is official about the GTA 6 cars
OFFICIAL: the six images came from Rockstar itself, which handed them to Hypedrive. The in-game car names appear in those images. Beyond that, Rockstar has not published top speed, acceleration or handling data. The engine figures going around belong to the real cars, not to game stats.
The six cars, one by one
| Car | Look | Real car engine |
|---|---|---|
| Grotti Cheetah | Mid-engine sports car, “Vice City” fade paint, lowered | 4.9L naturally aspirated V8 |
| Albany Buccaneer | Apple-green lowrider convertible with airbrushing and gold details | 7.5L V8 |
| Progen Emerus | Orange track car with a big rear wing | 4.0L twin-turbo V8 |
| Invetero Coquette | Mid-engine sports car with a pink and purple camo wrap | 6.2L naturally aspirated V8 |
| Albany Manana | 1970s-style classic in Vice City blue with gold wheels | 7.7L V8 |
| Pegassi Tempesta | Vice Beach Police cruiser | 4.0L naturally aspirated V10 |
REPORTED: the real-car descriptions and engines come from press coverage, mainly Supercar Blondie (November 10, 2026). Check the figures against a primary source once Rockstar publishes the full material.
Cheetah and Emerus: the sports cars
According to Supercar Blondie, the Grotti Cheetah has a fade paint job, lowered suspension, track tires and a custom-stitched leather interior. It is a mid-engine car, and the engine cited is a 4.9-liter naturally aspirated V8. The Progen Emerus takes another route: an aerodynamic body, intakes inspired by fighter jets, a large rear wing, orange paint and a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 in the real car.
Buccaneer and Manana: Vice City’s custom culture
The two Albany cars show the city’s most customized side. The Buccaneer is a lowrider convertible: metallic apple-green paint with airbrushing, gold trim, air suspension and zebra-print details, with a 7.5-liter V8 in the real car. The Manana recalls 1970s American customs, with a reworked body, large gold bumpers and wheels and a 7.7-liter V8. Both fit the Miami mood Rockstar has been showing since the first trailer.
Coquette and Tempesta: style and law
The Invetero Coquette shows the “Yeti Camo” paint, a mix of flamingo pink and vivid purple, custom wheels and a 6.2-liter naturally aspirated V8 in the real car. The Pegassi Tempesta comes as a Vice Beach Police cruiser, with a 4.0-liter V10 in the real car, a light bar and red underglow. It is the first close look at one of the city’s police cars in official screenshots at this level of detail.
What this means for players
Our read: Rockstar is signaling that visual car customization will matter in GTA 6, with paint, wheels, suspension and interior. We still do not know which of these options players will get or how they work. If you are building a garage wish list, the safest move is to follow the next official images.
What we still do not know
Rockstar has not confirmed top speed, handling, in-game price or where each car appears on the map. It has also not said whether all six will be for sale, tied to a mission or showcase-only. Any number beyond the real car’s engine is rumor until an official source speaks.
