List of all HSW cars in GTA Online after The Last Dose update, ranked

HSW cars in GTA Online are those vehicles which can utilize a feature exclusive to the next-gen version of the game. Hao's Special Works essentially makes these automobiles significantly faster. For instance, the original Vigero ZX has a top speed of 125 mph, whereas the HSW version goes up to a staggering 157.5 mph. Many other cars follow a similar principle where Hao can make them go approximately 20 to 30 mph faster than before.

Let's quickly learn about all HSW cars in GTA Online as of May 2024. It is worth noting that this article will primarily focus on top speeds and lap times. Also, the Hakucho Drag bike won't be listed here since it's not a car. Popular YouTuber Broughy1322 compiled the data used here.

The Hakuchou Drag is a bike with a top speed of 157.5 mph, tying it with the Vigero ZX. Generally speaking, most of these vehicles are significantly faster than non-HSW cars. No ordinary automobile in the old-gen ports of GTA Online was capable of reaching over 150 mph without exploits.

Now, there are multiple cars that can do that. That number could always grow in future updates.

Top speed is a useful metric, yet it can be a bit misleading in races with many sharp turns. That's why some players might prefer lap time. Here is how they would be ranked from fastest to slowest:

1. Pegassi Weaponized Ignus: 0:55.589
2. Coil Cyclone II: 0:55.823
3. Principe Deveste Eight: 0:58.359
4. Penaud La Coureuse: 1:00.811
5. Overflod Entity MT: 1:00.494
6. Grotti Turismo Classic: 1:00.693
7. Benefactor Stirling GT: 1:00.844
8. Bravado Banshee: 1:00.993
9. Declasse Vigero ZX: 1:02.145
10. Grotti Itali GTO Stinger TT: 1:02.829
11. Pfister Astron Custom: 1:04.348
12. Declasse Vigero ZX Convertible: 1:05.299
13. Karin S95: 1:05.699
14. Weeny Issi Rally: 1:06.066
15. Bravado Buffalo EVX: 1:06.132
16. Maibatsu MonstroCiti: 1:06.183
17. Ubermacht Sentinel XS: 1:06.433
18. Grotti Brioso R/A: 1:06.768
19. Imponte Arbiter GT: 1:06.800
20. Karin Vivanite: 1:08.452

If one wanted to include the Hakuchou Drag, it would be in first place with 0:52.736. Otherwise, all HSW cars in GTA Online are reflected above. Some interesting things to note between this list and the one for top speed include:

• Brioso R/A is consistently in the bottom three.
• Grotti Itali GTO Stinger TT is #1 for speed, yet its lap time is not.
• Similarly, the Weaponized Ignus is #1 for lap time but not for top speed.
• The Ubermacht Sentinel XS is the most consistent for being #16 in top speed and #17 in lap time.

It is vital to mention that all of the HSW cars in GTA Online featured in this list are available as of May 2024. Anything new afterwards will be added to the article.
