Overview
The MTL Flatbed is a commercial-class vehicle from MTL, massive diesel torque and reinforced chassis for industrial-grade tasks. Drawing clear inspiration from the Freightliner M2 Flatbed, 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 MTL Flatbed 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
MTL Flatbed
Manufactured by MTL in the GTA universe.
Freightliner M2 Flatbed
Produced by Freightliner.
The real-world Freightliner M2 Flatbed by Freightliner 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 diesel (turbo i6) powertrain delivering competitive performance within the Commercial class. The RWD configuration provides engaging rear-driven dynamics with controllable oversteer. Estimated top speed of 85 mph (est.) places it in the D-Tier (Under 110 mph) bracket.
Rideout Dyno & Engine Rev Studio
Procedurally synthesized acoustic simulation for the MTL MTL Flatbed (V8 MUSCLE). Hold throttle or press Space to rev.

High-Output Combustion Powertrain
Determines top end velocity, quarter-mile acceleration, and engine durability under prolonged pursuit redline.
Excessive front-end impacts smash the radiator, causing engine overheat and sudden cylinder seizure.
Customization Options
Rideout Customs support includes performance exhaust, suspension lowering kits, body kits, and custom wheel packages.
Drivers can take the MTL Flatbed to Rideout Customs in Vice City for extensive tuning packages, or utilize Pay & Spray locations for fast repaints, chase-breaking resprays, and legitimate vehicle re-registration to prevent police despawns.
How to Get It
Available at commercial vehicle lots or found at construction sites and logistics depots.
