Are Mitsubishi cars good in GTA?
In the GTA series, most Mitsubishi/Maibatsu vehicles are work or task-oriented as opposed to the high-speed, performance-driven supercars you’ll see zooming around the map. Seriously, how can a regular old box truck compete with a functioning jetpack?
That’s not to say that Mitsubishi models are no fun at all, far from it—for example, clever players can have a ton of fun with the Mule without spending a dime! Just hop on top of one at an intersection, cause a little chaos, and next thing you know, you’ll be truck-surfing down the street with the entire police force chasing after you. Watch out for stoplights!
This represents one of the major appeals of the GTA series. Even though the latest iteration, GTA V, came out almost 10 years ago, it still has a dedicated and loyal player base full of people still finding new ways to enjoy the game.
