Appearance(s) | GTA V GTA Online |
The Dubsta in GTA V showcases classic European styling, drawing strong inspiration from the Mercedes-Benz G-Class 463. Its boxy design prioritizes off-road functionality over aesthetics. The front features a large plastic bumper, a central chrome-trimmed grille, and rectangular turn indicators and headlamp units. Wide wheel arch flares and an elevated bonnet contribute to its muscular appearance.
The sides maintain a utilitarian look with straight lines and edges for the windows. The rear boasts a simple flat end with vertical rectangle tail lamps. The interior resembles other SUVs in the game, and the vehicle offers customization options for primary and secondary colors, as well as unique concave-shaped wheels.
The Dubsta boasts impressive ground clearance, allowing for clear visibility of its axles and differential from a higher angle. Equipped with a high-displacement engine, possibly a V12, and a permanent four-wheel drive system, the SUV delivers substantial power to its large, high-profile tires. It excels as an off-road vehicle, effortlessly scaling rocks and steep mountains thanks to its ample torque.
However, the Dubsta suffers from significant body roll both on and off-road due to its narrow build, making it prone to flipping when encountering bumps or debris at high speeds. Upgrading to off-road wheels can mitigate this issue. The SUV's weight proves advantageous for ramming or pushing other vehicles, but its untuned V12 engine limits its top speed and acceleration.
