5 fastest HSW cars in GTA Online (October 2023)

The Next-Gen console version of GTA 5 was a grand update. Not only did it add enhanced graphics and improved support, but it also brought along the Hao's Special Works (HSW) upgrades for some cars. With better base top speed and acceleration, these have quickly become one of the most popular vehicles in the game. Unfortunately, there are only 19 models that can equip this upgrade from Hao’s auto shop.

But, even with these few numbers, it can be difficult to pick out the fastest one. So, it is important to gather this information before spending any money because neither the base car models nor the upgrades are cheap.

The upgrades range anywhere from $370,000 to $1,415,000, depending on the car. Besides the cost, the base speed and acceleration also differ for each vehicle. Below is a ranked list of the top five fastest HSW cars that one can purchase in GTA Online.
