Grotti Cheetah in GTA 6
Confirmed Updated 2026-10-19
The Cheetah is the car most players remember from the first trailer: a wedge-shaped red supercar parked on a neon-lit Vice City street. Its Testarossa styling is a deliberate nod to the 1980s Miami look the series has used since GTA Vice City, where the Cheetah was already one of the fastest cars on the map.
