Declasse Tulip
The protagonists' signature ride — the orange muscle car Lucia and Jason drift off in at the end of Trailer 1, later shown being slim-jimmed in the Extended Look, its sticker details confirming the customization system.
Overview
The Declasse Tulip is one of the protagonists' signature vehicles. Trailer 1 closes with Lucia and Jason drifting off together in this orange muscle car — effectively the duo's first official portrait. The Extended Look brings it back: a full slim-jim lockout sequence ties the car directly to the confirmed silent theft system.
Confirmed Details
- Protagonist vehicle, co-driven by Lucia and Jason in Trailer 1's closing shot; slim-jimmed by Jason in the Extended Look
- Orange livery with custom stickers — direct visual proof of the customization system
- Classic American muscle positioning, echoing Leonida's Southern car culture
Series Standing
A returning name from GTA Online with 1970s American muscle in its DNA, the Tulip is promoted to hero-car status here — a familiar face for veterans and an entry point into Leonida's car culture for newcomers. Paired with the fuel, battery, and tracker management systems confirmed in the showcase, this old muscle car looks set to carry players through a long stretch of the early game.
