The Winter Update is finally live in GTA Online. There's a lot to be excited about like the new illicit business property. There are also new vehicles and even new Drift Races.
The highlight, of course, is the launching of The Chop Shop which you can read more about here.
New Vehicles
With the addition of The Chop Shop, there's a lot of new vehicles for you to choose from. These include:
- Grotti Turismo Omaggio (Super)
- Fathom FR36 (Coupe)
- Declasse Impaler LX (Muscle)
- Karin Asterope GZ (Sedan)
- Karin Vivanite (SUV)
- Vapid Dominator GT (Muscle)
- Vapid Aleutian (SUV)
- Declasse Vigero ZX Convertible (Muscle)
Law Enforcement Vehicles
But wait, there's more! The new update is going to introduce you to new connections in the automotive underworld. These new connections give you the ability to buy those highly desirable and off-the-grid Law Enforcement Vehicles.
It may sound easy but it's actually not. For starters, when committing Salvage Yard robberies, you'll need to above and beyond the law. However, once you do survive and lost those Wanted Levels, it's the first step in getting to unlock and buy the likes of the Vapid Stanier LE Cruiser, Police Riot, and Unmarked Cruiser.
New Drift Races
New Drift Races have been added and you now have the chance to lean into those hairpin turns and earn over-rotate your tires to get that perfect amount of angle. But that's not all there is to it. Instead of the typical race to the finish, this mode hands out those crucial Drift Points based on a combination of criteria which include bonuses for Precision Drift and final racing position.
As you race, you can string together a series of shorter swerving turns to result in that multi-chain mega drift or pushing the limits and be the Drift God. Whoever finishes with the most Drift Points wins. Drift Races are available to all LS Car Meet members and takes place across seven classic Los Santos destinations that include Legion Square, Vespucci Beach, the Vinewood Hills, Mirror Park, and more.
