Lamborghini Countach in GTA 5 Online: The Pegassi Torero’s visual design

Being one of the vehicles featured in the current GTA 5 Online weekly discounts, the Pegassi Torero base design took up inspiration mainly from the Lamborghini Countach, with some design cues taken from:

• Koenig Countach – Side skirts
• Ferrari F40 – Front parking lamps
• Ferrari 328 – Rear lamps

Players can also find some resemblance with Grand Theft Auto Vice City’s Infernus car mode, although both are different vehicles. Here are some of the main visual characteristics of the Lamborghini Countach-based Pegassi Torero, giving it a short body yet sporty look:

Front body:

• Five thin intakes
• Two additional vents
• Square-shaped lamps on black-finished housings
• Pop-up rectangular headlamps
• Manufacturer emblem on the bonnet

Side body:

• Single strake line splitting the air into side intakes
• Plastic trim around the windows
• Wing mirror behind the A-pillar
• Black-slatted intakes
• Small grills
• Scissor doors

Rear body:

• Black-coloured panel
• A black strip on the panel’s center
• Circular rear lamps similar to that of the Infernus Classic
• Inner lamps consisting of turn signals and reverse lights
• Twin exit dual exhaust below the rear bumper

Unlike the latest GTA Online podium vehicle, the Lamborghini Countach-inspired Pegassi Torero runs on a V12 engine with a 5-speed transmission in an RWD layout.
