The Panto in GTA V is a microcar manufactured by Benefactor and inspired by the 2007-2014 Smart Fortwo, with design elements from other cars such as the Volkswagen Up!, Mitsubishi i, Toyota iQ/Scion iQ/Aston Martin Cygnet. The car features a meshed bumper vent, circular headlamps, and wide fender arches and skirts.
Its interior is simple with a dashboard, dials, and interior usually employed by SUVs. The car can be customized with primary and secondary colors, and "El Quatro" tuner wheels are available.
The Panto is a small and lightweight car with excellent acceleration and a high top speed. However, its short wheelbase makes it prone to spinning out of control at high speeds, and its durability is unremarkable. The vehicle is very maneuverable when airborne and is immune to any form of crash deformation.
Additionally, even a moderate impact to the rear can kill any NPC occupants inside. Its engine is transversely laid out and powered by a 3-cylinder engine coupled to a 6-speed gearbox.

This vehicle does not play any role in the storyline missions of GTA V.
Can be commonly found driven around by NPCs or parked by the road or in parking lots all over the map.
A modified version can be rarely found outside the Los Santos Customs in Burton.
A pre-modified version spawns in front of The Archipelago in Rockford Hills.
Lowdown 91.1 and Space 103.2 are the default radio stations for the Panto.
When the Stickerbomb livery is added to the tailgate, the license plate will be shifted at a slight angle.
This is the only Benefactor vehicle that doesn't resemble a Mercedes-Benz model. However, Smart is part of the Daimler AG group, which is also the parent company of Mercedes-Benz, and the real life Smart Fortwo also contains parts that are also used on some Mercedes-Benz models.
