GTA Online vehicles that players should not underestimate

1) Karin Kuruma Armored

The Karin Kuruma Armored was once one of the most popular cars for GTA Online beginners and it is still great for free roaming in the game. It is an upgraded version of the Karin Kuruma and protects its driver from enemy bullets. However, the game has now many other armored vehicles, because of which the Armored Kuruma became underrated.

The glass panels of the vehicle are covered with metal panels that resist most of the firepower. It is a sports car that has a decent top speed, which is enough to cover the entire map within a few minutes. Grand Theft Auto Online players, especially beginners, should not underestimate this car as it can help them in the early stages of grinding.

2) Nagasaki Buzzard Attack Chopper

The Nagasaki Buzzard Attack Chopper is one of the best helicopters in GTA Online. However, since it has been in the game since 2013, many players think it is a basic aircraft. The helicopter has a decent top speed, which you can increase by flying higher. It even boasts homing missiles and machine guns. You can use it in all kinds of missions, especially those of a free-roam nature.

Experienced players use the Nagasaki Buzzard Attack Chopper with the SecuroServe features. Once you become a CEO, you can spawn it anywhere instantly. While the helicopter is not great for dogfights in GTA Online, you can use it to practice your flying skills in the game.

3) MTL Brickade 6x6

The MTL Brickade 6x6, also known as Acid Lab, is mostly popular as one of the best businesses in GTA Online. But it is also a great vehicle to drive in free-roam. It is a truck that can withstand up to 48 homing missiles. The passengers inside the vehicle remain protected from griefers unless they attack you with a gun through the glass panels.

Many players use the vehicle to operate the Acid Lab business only. But you should also use its mobility and drive as a regular vehicle. The MTL Brickade 6x6 also has strong ramming power that can toss any vehicle on the road.

4) Western Reever

The Western Reever is one of the most underestimated vehicles in Grand Theft Auto Online. Many fans believe it is a simple-looking motorcycle you can use for commute.

However, it should be noted that with a top speed of 163.00 mph or 262.32 km/h, the Western Reever is the fastest motorcycle in the multiplayer game. Additionally, Rockstar Games offers some of the best customizations for the motorcycle.

There are many reasons to own the Western Reever in GTA Online, so every player must try to get it.

Many players avoid the Toreador as it looks like a griefer's best friend equipped with weapons and boosts. But it is also useful for normal players. It is an amphibious vehicle that you can drive almost everywhere. If you are a regular grinder, it is one of the best vehicles to make the process easy.

The Pegassi Toreador gives you the confidence to fight enemies and also protects you from griefers. It is one of the best-armored vehicles in GTA Online in 2024.
