Car mods are one of the easiest ways to change how GTA 5 feels without touching missions or the map. Most of the ones below are add-ons, meaning they slot in as new vehicles rather than overwriting something already in the game, so your existing traffic and garage stay intact. A couple go further than a single car and change how every vehicle drives or handles on screen.
When picking between them, think about what you actually want: a sharper look for a specific car, a full tuner build with swappable parts, or a system-level change like steering rotation or handling physics. Check what each mod needs to run properly, since several call for extra tools such as OpenIV or specific trainers, and note whether a mod only works with the Legacy version of the game or also supports Enhanced.
1. 2020 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat – Add-On Muscle Car
This add-on puts the four-door Hellcat into GTA 5 on its own vehicle slot, so it sits alongside the standard traffic rather than replacing anything. The body is high quality with a mid-tier interior, all lights work including an extra light, and the daytime running light colour can be changed to match your paint.
One tuning part and three extra parts give a bit of visual variety without turning it into a full build project. It is a straightforward pick for anyone who wants a modern muscle sedan in their rotation and it runs fine alongside VStancer.

2. 480 Degree Steering Wheel Rotation – Realistic Driving Fix
This one is not a car, it is a fix for the cars already in the game. It edits the core vehicle data so steering wheels turn through a proper 480 degree sweep instead of the short stock arc, and that rotation is forced across every camera view, with the option to push it past 900 degrees in the settings.
It covers somewhere between 70 and 80 base game vehicles and does not rely on heavy scripts, so there is no performance hit, and it works fine with keyboard or a standard controller. Hand animations stay at the default setup, so expect a slight mismatch between hands and wheel. OpenIV is required to install it.

3. Drive V – Realistic Handling and Damage Overhaul
Drive V rewrites the driving feel for the whole game, giving every vehicle its own handling line instead of relying on shared defaults. Steering response is the headline change, with heavier and older cars reacting in a way that feels closer to real weight, and body roll and deformation are tuned to sit closer to GTA IV than the stock arcade feel.
On top of the physics work there are reworked off-road surfaces, realistic colour palettes pulled from real finishes, and over 310 customised vehicles placed at spawn points. It also includes optional traffic and AI driving tweaks. This is a heavier install than a single car mod, since it needs Simple Trainer, InversePower and ENB to run as intended.

4. 2025 Xiaomi SU7 Ultra – Add-On Car with Tuning and Extras
This conversion brings the road-going SU7 Ultra into GTA 5 as a new add-on car, with opening doors, breakable windows, working dials and hands placed on the wheel. The interior and exterior use a vertex ambient occlusion map for extra depth, and there are two seat positions to choose from.
Customisation is light but useful, with a carbon bonnet tuning part and roof and rear plate extras, plus four colour options covering body stripe, livery, leather and caliper. It is built for the Legacy edition only and is not compatible with Enhanced.

5. 2025 BMW M4 GT3 EVO G82 – Add-On Race Car
This is the track-focused GT3 version of the M4, added as its own car rather than replacing anything in the roster. Both Legacy and Enhanced versions are included, and the package comes with two builds, a standard wheel setup spawning as evog82 and a racing wheel version spawning as evog82r.
Detail work includes extra working front lights, tintable and breakable glass, a customised speedometer, reflective mirrors and a detailed interior with a working steering wheel and hands on it. Good pick if you want a dedicated race car rather than a street tune.

6. 2020 Toyota GR Supra A90 – Add-On Car with Tuning Parts
This add-on brings the current-generation Supra into GTA 5 without touching the existing vehicle line-up, and it leans hard into customisation with over 80 tuning parts. That includes six front and six rear bumpers, ten spoilers, eleven bonnets and two engine swap options built around a 2JZ or an RB-26.
Paint is split into separate slots for body, calipers, wheels, stitches and interior, and a template is included if you want to build your own liveries. It needs Corona Begone and VStancer to work as intended, so factor that into the install.

7. Mansory Audi RSQ8 – Add-On Luxury Performance SUV
The RSQ8 is already one of Audi’s most powerful SUVs, and this add-on fits it with a full Mansory body kit on top of a high-quality base model. It does not replace an existing car, so it just adds another option to the garage.
Both singleplayer and FiveM files are included, so it works whether you play solo or on a server. It suits anyone who wants a large, loud, heavily styled SUV rather than something closer to stock, and OpenIV is required to install it.

8. 2018 Honda Civic Type R FK8 – Add-On Hot Hatch with Bodykits
This add-on brings the FK8 Civic Type R into GTA 5 as a right-hand drive car with a high-quality body and interior, sitting alongside the existing cars rather than replacing one. The real draw is the tuning range, with support for J’S Racing, Seibon, Varis and Modulo bodykits, plus a J’S Racing GT wing, sports exhaust and grille.
There is also a Seibon carbon hood and trunk, COPLUS headlights and a rims pack, and paintjob support covers a template plus over 20 community liveries including itasha designs. Good fit for anyone into JDM hot hatch builds who wants a lot of visual options on one car.

9. 1998 Toyota Supra JZA80 – Add-On JDM Car with TRD Bodykit
This add-on puts the classic JZA80 Supra into GTA 5 as a right-hand drive car with a high-quality body and interior, joining the roster rather than replacing anything. Bodykit options include TRD and Varis-Ridox, plus an early 1993 Zenki stock kit if you want the original look.
Extras include a manual front spoiler you can trigger with Shift and Ctrl, a removable hood, glowing LED taillights and interior upgrades like a race steering wheel and gauges. Paint support covers a template and over 20 community liveries, making it a solid base for building your own JDM look.

10. Ferrari 458 Italia Hot Pursuit Police
This mod turns the 458 Italia into a detailed police cruiser, available in both add-on and replace versions depending on how you want to install it. The model is ultra high quality with a detailed interior and engine, and it carries a proper lightbar setup with a 40-LED main bar plus smaller 6-LED and 2-LED bars and extra lights.
Working dials, high-quality mirror and glass reflections and a 4K livery with a custom skin template round it out. It suits players who want a pursuit vehicle with real detail rather than a reskinned patrol car.

Tips for cars mods in Grand Theft Auto 5
- Always back up your original game files before installing any add-on or replace-type car mod, so you can undo changes if something breaks.
- Check each mod’s stated requirements before installing, since some need extra tools or scripts such as OpenIV, a trainer, or ENB to work correctly.
- Confirm whether a mod targets the Legacy or Enhanced version of the game, as not all add-ons support both.
- Install one car or fix at a time and test it in game before adding the next, so you can spot conflicts early.
- Keep tuning parts, templates and livery packs in mind when installing add-on cars, since missing files can cause textures or parts to show up incorrectly.
