Overview

The Benefactor Schafter V12 is the quintessential executive powerhouse. Blending discrete executive styling with a monstrous 6.0L twin-turbocharged V12 powerplant, it provides seating for a full four-person crew and ample trunk inventory.

In Grand Theft Auto VI, vehicle handling and weight have been dramatically overhauled compared to GTA V. The Benefactor Schafter V12 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.
