GTA Online has many amazing radio stations for players to choose from. While driving, players can switch to their favorite radio station that plays their favorite genre of music.

Radio stations have been a part of the GTA Series ever since its first entry back in 1997 and are now one of the staple features of any GTA game. There is no experience like enjoying the radio while being in a high-speed cop chase in GTA Online.

Today, many players are so accustomed to their favorite radio, that they pick their vehicles of choice depending on what are the default radio stations for the vehicle in the game.
