Overview
The Albany Hermes is a muscle-class vehicle from Albany, a thunderous exhaust note and relentless straight-line grunt. Drawing clear inspiration from the Cadillac Series 62 (1950), it brings bold American automotive muscle to the streets of Vice City.
In Grand Theft Auto VI, vehicle handling and weight have been dramatically overhauled compared to GTA V. The Albany Hermes benefits from heavier physics simulation, realistic roll dynamics, and authentic torque curves designed to reward skilled drivers on both Leonida's open freeways and narrow downtown alleys.
Real-Life Inspiration
Albany Hermes
Manufactured by Albany in the GTA universe.
Cadillac Series 62 (1950)
Produced by Cadillac.
The real-world Cadillac Series 62 (1950) by Cadillac serves as the primary design inspiration. GTA 6's interpretation preserves the signature proportions and key design language while applying Rockstar's characteristic satirical modifications to badges, grille patterns, and taillight clusters.
Performance Stats
Powered by a gasoline (n/a v8) powertrain delivering competitive performance within the Muscle class. The RWD configuration provides engaging rear-driven dynamics with controllable oversteer. Estimated top speed of 120 mph (est.) places it in the C-Tier (110-139 mph) bracket.

Excessive front-end impacts smash the radiator, causing engine overheat and sudden cylinder seizure.
Customization Options
Rideout Customs support includes blower supercharger kits, hood scoop options, wide rear tire packages, and vintage stripe liveries.
