The short version
- Included with the Ultimate Edition, not sold separately.
- Rockstar has published four official product images of it.
- The year prefix is new: no previous GTA has dated a returning model this precisely.
- No performance figures, price or base-game availability have been announced.
The Grotti Cheetah is the closest thing Grand Theft Auto has to a signature supercar. It has appeared in some form in almost every era of the series, and Rockstar has chosen it as the headline vehicle of the GTA VI Ultimate Edition.
What is genuinely new is the year. Calling it a ’95 Cheetah rather than simply a Cheetah is the first time the series has dated a model this explicitly, and it suggests the roster distinguishes between model years in a way previous games did not.

What the images show
Four angles of a mid-nineties wedge supercar. Pop-up-era proportions, a wide rear track, and the low flat nose the Cheetah has carried since the series started using the name.
It is unmistakably period
Nothing about the shape belongs to a modern car.
That fits the rest of the edition set, where all three road vehicles are old.
What the images leave out
No interior. No dashboard. No instruments. That is usually the shot people want.
Rockstar has confirmed fully interactive interiors across the roster. It has not shown this one, and our vehicle systems guide covers what interiors are meant to do.
Grotti and the Cheetah, across the series
Grotti is the series' Italian supercar marque. The Cheetah is its longest-running model.
The nameplate has moved around
Early games gave it a wedge-shaped, Testarossa-adjacent body. By GTA V it was a modern carbon hypercar.
The name travels. The car underneath it does not stay the same.
A '95 puts it back at the start
That makes it a period piece dropped into a modern-day game.
Which is exactly what the Vintage Vice City framing around this launch keeps pointing at.
What the Cheetah's photos do not show
- Top speed, handling or any performance statistic.
- Whether the same car can be found or bought in the base game.
- Whether it can be customised, and at what kind of shop.
- Where it spawns, or whether it is delivered to a garage at the start.
