Grand Theft Auto V may be a game about many things, but the premise of stealing cars remains. Rockstar Games' commitment to player satisfaction has made the difference. A plethora of updates has added new vehicles for players to relish. Some of which worked well in the game, but some are plain clumsy and awkward to drive.
Now that Grand Theft Auto V is coming to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, it's going to be a gamechanger. The new editions will include new content and revamped graphics for the next-gen consoles. In the meantime, let's go over some of the most challenging vehicles to drive. Here they are ranked from least to most difficult to drive.
10 Festival Bus
The 1.44 After Hours update added a variety of irregular vehicles, including a hover motorcycle, blimps, and the Festival Bus. The latter can be purchased for $1,842,050 from Southern S.A. Super Autos.
The Festival Bus's handling and braking are both poor, making this one of the most challenging vehicles to drive. What do you expect when the vehicle is essentially a driving concert? It's great for outdoor parties in the secluded Chiliad Mountain State Wilderness, just don't expect to evade the police in this abomination.
9 Stanley Tractor
This old tractor has seen been days, but it was likely never easy to maneuver. You can attach a trailer called the Farm Trailer, which doesn't make driving it any easier.
The small wheels in the front are steerable with two massive wheels in the back. It has a wheel type that better suited for driving on dirt. You're unable to customize this vehicle. It has abysmal handling, which is why it should be salvaged for spare parts and not left in a garage to rust further.
8 HVYÂ Cutter
Technically speaking, the HVY Dozer has worse handling than the HVY Cutter. We had to say that the HVY Cutter is more difficult to drive because of its odd shape. The purpose of the vehicle is mobile tunnel boring (excavating tunnels). It was likely inspired by a vehicle from 1995's Die Hard with a Vengeance.
This vehicle has a handling rating of 33.33. It has a bit of a worn appearance suggesting that people aren't willing to give this a repaint. After all, how would you? The Cutter is enormous and won't fit in a Los Santos Customs garage.
7 Ocelot Pariah
Added as part of the Doomsday Heist update, the Ocelot Pariah is heavily inspired by the Aston Marton Vanquish Zagato. The Ocelot Pariah is something of an outlier on this Grand Theft Auto V vehicle list.
As the fastest car in the game with superior handling, it could be said it's one of the most comfortable vehicles to drive. At the same time, many players will find the top speed of this car to be overwhelming. Evidently, faster isn't always better.
6 Blimp
The blimp is not the most versatile air vehicle. It is not meant to make tight maneuvers. The blimp moves at a steady pace throughout the sky, but most people will eventually crash it because they try to perform stunts.
You can choose different liveries for the blimp, but you cannot deny that it has heavy drag and is a difficult to steer semi-rigid airship.
5 Volatol
This aircraft from Grand Theft Auto V was added as part of the 1.42 The Doomsday Heist update. It bears many similarities RM-10 Bombushka, but it has a sleeker appearance and might be more vulnerable to damage. Exercise caution when driving the Volatol as it is not fit for combat.
It has a tremendously high top speed, but extremely low acceleration and inferior handling. Homing missiles are determinantal to the Volatol since it doesn't have the handling or defensive capabilities to dodge or withstand an attack.
4 Karin Futo
At $9,000, it's either the best or worst purchase you could make for a vehicle. This car is what you make of it. Karin Futo is a vehicle that can drift around corners like few others. There is a tremendous amount of detail seen around this car, from the engine to the interior.
The tires are typically used for high-end vehicles, but Futo has poor handling compared to some of those vehicles. At cheaper than two sniper rifles, you might want to consider buying the Karin Futo.
3 Pegassi Ultralight
Added as part of the Smuggler's Run update, the Pegassi Ultralight is a one-person plane with a hang glider. You can purchase the Pegassi Ultralight in Grand Theft Auto Online for $665,000.
Nothing is ordinary about this vehicle as it is a tricycle and a plane. Given that it is both a tricycle and a plane, it could be said it's not effective at being either. Consider yourself a seasoned Grand Theft Auto V player if you can pilot this vehicle.
2 RM-10 Bombushka
The RM-10 Bombushka was a mission exclusive at one time but later became available for purchase. It is a cargo plane and one of the most challenging vehicles to steer.
The Air Freight Cargo mission is considered one of the most difficult because of the RM-10 Bombushka's weak armor. You have to drop off cargo while defending against Buzzard Attack Choppers. Thankfully, if you manage to complete this mission, you'll be handsomely rewarded for piloting possibly the most dangerous vehicle in Grand Theft Auto V.
1 Kraken Submersibles Kraken
The Kraken Submersibles Kraken is unlike any other boat in Grand Theft Auto V. It was added with the next-gen version of Grand Theft Auto V. It is based on the Triton 1000/3. The handling rating for the Kraken is 0.00, given that it is almost impossible to maneuver.
Visibility is limited due to the darkness of the seafloor. You'll be able to see marine life if you can figure out how to steer. You'll be crashing into the ocean floor most of the time. This is considered the most difficult vehicle to drive in Grand Theft Auto V.
