Overview

The Imponte Beater Dukes is a muscle-class vehicle from Imponte, a thunderous exhaust note and relentless straight-line grunt. Drawing clear inspiration from the Pontiac GTO Judge (1969), 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 Imponte Beater Dukes 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.

Manufactured by Imponte in the GTA universe.

Real-World Counterpart

Pontiac GTO Judge (1969)

Produced by Pontiac.

The real-world Pontiac GTO Judge (1969) by Pontiac 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.
