Rockstar has officially named seven GTA 6 vehicles, all on its edition and pre-order pages: the ‘95 Grotti Cheetah, ‘55 Vapid Stanier, Vapid Ganado, Dinka Enduro, Crest Kayak, Shitzu Squalo and ‘67 Vapid Dominator Buggy, plus a gold donk from Rideout Customs confirmed. Everything else comes from press reports of Rockstar screenshots or from fans identifying cars in trailers.
The systems around them are the bigger story: security tiers for theft, fuel, trunk storage, garages and a phone app that scans cars before you steal them reported.

Which cars were in Rockstar’s November screenshots?
Press reports say Rockstar showcased six cars in November 2026 screenshots reported:
| Car | Grade |
|---|---|
| Grotti Cheetah | reported |
| Albany Buccaneer | reported |
| Progen Emerus | reported |
| Invetero Coquette | reported |
| Albany Manana | reported |
| Pegassi Tempesta | reported |
We saw these names in search results from GTABase, GTA Online Wiki, TimeSaver and Daily Game Score rather than on a Rockstar page, so they stay at reported until launch.
What vehicles were spotted in the trailers?
These are identifications by fans and outlets, not Rockstar names.
Trailer 1, per Den of Geek reported: Cheetah, Vapid Stanier, Bravado Buffalo, Imponte Ruiner/Runner, Karin Futo, Bravado Banshee, Pegassi Speeder, Dinka Verus, Gauntlet Hellfire, Sabre Turbo, Comet, Maverick, Dodo, Sea Sparrow and Obey Tailgater, among others.
Other trailer IDs from fans rumour: Pegassi Zorrusso, Pfister Astron, Buckingham Maverick, Frogger, Supervolito and Volatus helicopters, an Aeromotive blimp and the Shitzu Tropic. The Declasse Tulip is named by fan wikis as the getaway car in Trailer 2’s final shot rumour.
What boats and aircraft are in GTA 6?
Leonida is a water state, and Rockstar’s material shows it confirmed:
- Shitzu Squalo, a boat docked at Washington Beach, and the Crest Kayak, both named on edition pages.
- A speedboat and a helicopter on the cover art.
- A seaplane towing a “Nine1Nine” banner in Trailer 1.
Fan and press IDs fill in the rest. Den of Geek’s Trailer 1 list includes the Maverick helicopter, the Dodo and the Sea Sparrow reported. Fan IDs from later footage add the Buckingham Maverick, Frogger, Supervolito and Volatus helicopters, an Aeromotive blimp and the Shitzu Tropic boat rumour. Jet skis are also confirmed as an activity, per previews reported.
Planes are part of the story’s backstory too. Brian Heder’s official pull quote: “I hauled so much grass in that plane, I could make the state of Leonida levitate.” Whether you can fly a smuggling plane yourself isn’t confirmed. The water-heavy regions are the Leonida Keys and Grassrivers.
Which vehicles come with which edition?
From Rockstar’s pages confirmed:
| Vehicle | Where it comes from |
|---|---|
| ’95 Grotti Cheetah | Ultimate Edition |
| ’55 Vapid Stanier | Vintage Vice City pre-order pack, alongside a pastel linen suit |
| Others (‘67 Dominator Buggy, Ganado, Enduro, Squalo, Crest Kayak) | Named on Rockstar’s edition pages; we haven’t verified which tier each belongs to |
The full edition breakdown, with prices, is on price and editions.
How many vehicles are in GTA 6?
There’s no official count. Fan databases disagree; one lists 176 rumour. Treat any number as a fan tally until players catalog the game.
How does stealing cars work in GTA 6?
Per Red Bull, Edge and VICE reported:
- Security tiers. Vehicles have different levels of protection.
- Tools. Hot-wiring, key cloners or duplicators, lock picks, smashing a window (which triggers the alarm), or a quick-time-event hijack.
- Trackers. Some cars carry trackers that alert police. See the wanted system.
- Registration. Stolen cars can be registered for a fee.
- Waink app. Scans a car’s security, tracker, registration cost and resale value. More on phone apps.
Is there fuel in GTA 6?
Yes, per previews reported. Fuel gauges return and you refuel by holding the button for about 10 seconds. Engine health is tracked too.
