Overview
The Vapid Contender is a suvs-class vehicle from Vapid, ample passenger capacity makes it ideal for full four-person heist crews. Drawing clear inspiration from the Ford F-150 Raptor, 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 Vapid Contender 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
Vapid Contender
Manufactured by Vapid in the GTA universe.
Ford F-150 Raptor
Produced by Ford.
The real-world Ford F-150 Raptor by Ford 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 (twin-turbo v6) powertrain delivering competitive performance within the SUVs class. The 4WD configuration provides confident all-surface traction. Estimated top speed of 125 mph (est.) places it in the C-Tier (110-139 mph) bracket.
