All purchasable cop cars in GTA Online, ranked according to their prices

Rockstar added the ability to buy and own cop cars in GTA Online with The Chop Shop update. Since then, the roster has been increased considerably, so you have plenty of options when choosing which one you want. Or, you might want to add them all to your collection. However, these aren't cheap by any means. In fact, the police cars in this game are some of the most expensive vehicles.

Rockstar likely did this because they anticipated how much players would covet them. Therefore, checking the prices of these cars is absolutely mandatory before buying them. You also need to unlock them first by meeting a few requirements.

In light of that, we've created a complete list of all ten purchasable cop cars in GTA Online, ranking them from cheapest to costliest.

All cop cars in GTA Online ranked from cheapest to most expensive

1) Unmarked Cruiser

Cost: $2,962,500 - $3,950,000
How to unlock: Survive a 3 star wanted level for over 5 minutes
Dispatch Work: Yes

The Unmarked Cruiser, as the name implies, is a police car that doesn't have any police liveries, so it works quite well as an undercover vehicle. It's based on the iconic Ford Crown Victoria, just like the next vehicle on this list, the Stanier LE Cruiser. The Trade Price can be unlocked after completing The Gangbanger Robbery as leader. The Vapid Unmarked Cruiser is the cheapest among all cop cars in GTA Online.

2) Stanier LE Cruiser

Cost: $3,517,500 - $4,690,000
How to unlock: Complete Scope Out: Mission Row Police Station as part of The Gangbanger Robbery
Dispatch Work: Yes

The Vapid Stanier LE Cruiser is the regular variant of the Unmarked Cruiser, and is basically the same vehicle but with actual police liveries. These liveries, along with the paint, can all be customized, just like most other cop cars in GTA Online. You can unlock the Trade Price for this car after finding a piece of evidence at a Crime Scene.

3) Impaler SZ Cruiser

Cost: $3,540,000 - $4,720,000
How to unlock: Not required
Dispatch Work: Yes

The Declasse Impaler SZ is based on the Chevrolet Impala SS from the 90s, and was added to the game with The Chop Shop DLC. The Impaler SZ Cruiser is the police variant of the same car, with police markings and equipments. This vehicle might be a reference to Midnight Club 3 and Midnight Club LA, two iconic racing game titles from Rockstar, as the '96 Impala SS was a police car in both these games.

The Trade Price will be unlocked after completing Possession for Sale as part of Dispatch Work.

4) Police Riot

This vehicle can't be customized (Image via GTA Wiki || Rockstar Games)

Cost: $3,600,000 - $4,800,000
How to unlock: Lose a 4 or 5 star wanted level naturally
Dispatch Work: No

The Police Riot is an armored riot van that heavily resembles the Lenco BEAR. Unlike most of the other cop cars in GTA Online, this one doesn't allow you to play Dispatch Work missions. The Trade Price for this vehicle gets unlocked after finishing the Tactical Gear preparation mission of the Gangbanger Robbery. It should be noted that despite being armored, the tires on this van aren't bulletproof.

5) Impaler LX Cruiser

Cost: $3,600,000 - $4,800,000
How to unlock: Not required
Dispatch Work: Yes

The Declasse Impaler LX Cruiser was added as one of the new drip-fed cop cars in GTA Online, as part of the Bottom Dollar Bounties DLC. It's based on the 1980–1985 Chevrolet Impala, an iconic muscle car. Like most of the newer cop cars from the Bottom Dollar Bounties update, there's no additional requirement for unlocking the vehicle. There's also a regular Impaler LX that was added earlier in The Chop Shop DLC.

You'll unlock the Trade Price for this vehicle after completing Civil Disturbance, which is part of Dispatch Work.

6) Greenwood Cruiser

Cost: $3,682,500 - $4,910,000
How to unlock: Not required
Dispatch Work: Yes

Just like the regular Greenwood, the Cruiser variant of this car is based on the 1977–1978 Dodge Monaco. An interesting thing to note about this car is that it was supposed to be added to the game much earlier, along with the canceled Cops & Crooks DLC in 2020. This was revealed during the Grand Theft Auto 5 source code leak.

The Trade Price for this cruiser is unlocked after completing 5 Dispatch Works.

7) Dominator FX Interceptor

Cost: $3,712,500 - $4,950,000
How to unlock: Not required
Dispatch Work: Yes

The Vapid Dominator FX Interceptor is another one of the newest cop cars in GTA Online that was added as a drip-feed vehicle. It's design seems to heavily resemble the 1982 Ford Mustang SSP, which is one of the Foxbody Mustangs. Like the Impaler LX, there's a regular variant for this one as well, which was also added with the Bottom Dollar Bounties.

You can buy this at its Trade Price after finishing Malicious Mischief as part of Dispatch Work.

8) Dorado Cruiser

One of the most unique cop cars in GTA Online (Image via GTA Wiki || Rockstar Games)

Cost: $3,753,750 - $5,005,000
How to unlock: Not required
Dispatch Work: Yes

The Bravao Dorado is based on the first-generation Dodge Durango (DN), and its police version is essentially the same. This is the only SUV among all the cop cars in GTA Online. Although the Park Ranger is also an SUV, it's not exactly a cop car, and you can't start Dispatch Work in that vehicle. The Trade Price for this police car is unlocked after completing Officer Monitored as part of the Dispatch Work missions.

9) Gauntlet Interceptor

This vehicle was spotted in the Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer (Image via GTA Wiki || Rockstar Games)

Cost: $4,065,000 - $5,420,000
How to unlock: Complete Slush Fund as a leader
Dispatch Work: Yes

The Gauntlet Interceptor is essentially the police variant of the Gauntlet Hellfire, which is based on the 2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon. There are some unique liveries on this vehicle that aren't available on any of the other cop cars in GTA Online. The Trade Price is unlocked after completing Scene of the Crime as a leader. This is the most expensive among all cop cars in GTA Online, most likely due to its performance.
