Rockstar added the GTA Online Ocelot Virtue to the game along with The Last Dose DLC back in March 2023. It's a stunning electric supercar that any car enthusiast in the game would want to have. Although it's not the fastest car in the game by any means, it still boasts a super acceleration and exceptional handling. The Virtue can also be equipped with Imani Tech upgrades, which makes it quite versatile for different scenarios.

In light of all that, we're exploring five different things that every player should know about the GTA Online Ocelot Virtue and whether the vehicle is still worth buying or not.


5 vital things to know about GTA Online Ocelot Virtue

1) Based on Lotus Evija

Ocelot is a fictional manufacturer in the Grand Theft Auto Universe whose models are mostly based on British cars made by Jaguar and Lotus. As such, car enthusiasts and Grand Theft Auto fans would instantly recognize the similarity between the GTA Online Ocelot Virtue and the Lotus Evija, an all-electric hypercar.

The Virtue has a decent selection of customization options as well as liveries, so you can modify the vehicle according to your liking. All this makes the Virtue one of the best looking cars that are also highly customizable in GTA Online.


2) Satisfying performance

The real-life Evija has a top speed of 218 mph, which the GTA Online Ocelot Virtue can't match at all with its 119.25 mph top speed (as measured by YouTuber Broughy1322). However, the acceleration is quite comparable, and this is what makes the vehicle so impressive.

When you're speeding through the busy streets of Los Santos and traversing across the city's grids, you will frequently need to slow down. The high acceleration means that the Virtue excels in this sort of environment. Its exceptional handling also makes it the perfect choice for racing around tight bends.

In fact, the GTA Online Ocelot Virtue has a recorded lap time of just 0:59.293, which is extremely impressive with its low top speed.


3) Imani Tech compatibility

Any vehicle is made better with the availability of Imani Tech upgrades for it. The GTA Online Ocelot Virtue already has the looks and the performance, so the ability to install some unique technological upgrades is the cherry on top. Like most Imani Tech-supported vehicles, the GTA Online Ocelot Virtue can be fitted with a Remote Control Unit or a Missile Lock-on Jammer.

It can also be equipped with Slick Proximity Mines, which would be especially effective during chases. The Missile Lock-on Jammer is almost essential if you're playing in public lobbies. Now, it's currently not known if Imani Tech will return in Grand Theft Auto 6, but we might get to know more as the GTA 6 release window gets closer.


4) Armor Plating compatibility

One of the best Imani Tech features is Armor Plating, and thankfully, the GTA Online Ocelot Virtue can be equipped with these. Naturally, this makes it more resistant to damage from gunfire and explosions. Here's how much damage the Virtue can take with the Armor Plating upgrade:

  • 11 RPGs/missiles
  • 29 Heavy Sniper MK II explosive rounds
  • 11 sticky bombs

When equipped with Armor Plating, the Virtue, along with the Omnis e-GT, has higher resistance to explosives than any Imani tech vehicles.


5) Can be obtained for free

You can buy the GTA Online Ocelot Virtue from Legendary Motorsport for $2,980,000, while the Trade Price of $2,235,000 is unlocked when you complete Last Dose 5 - BDKD. This might seem like a lot, but it seems completely justified if you look at the performance and unique features of this car.

However, you can get this vehicle completely free of cost if you complete all of the Last Dose DLC missions as Leader. You can then pick up Dr. Isiah Friedlander's pre-modified Virtue from a parking lot near the Eclipse Medical Tower.


So, is it worth buying in GTA Online?

The GTA Online Ocelot Virtue is one of the best supercars in the game that every player should have in their garage, but since you can get it for free, there's no point in buying it. These missions also leave you with a lot of money, so it's much better to get it that way.
