The '''Perennial''' is a recurring station wagon/minivan featured in every [[Grand Theft Auto]] game since [[Grand Theft Auto III]] (except [[Grand Theft Auto Advance]]). The car's outward appearance and performance has changed only slightly throughout its appearance, having only been radically redesigned as a minivan from [[Grand Theft Auto IV]] onwards. | The '''Perennial''' is a recurring station wagon/minivan featured in every [[Grand Theft Auto]] game since [[Grand Theft Auto III]] (except [[Grand Theft Auto Advance]], [[The Lost and Damned]] and [[The Ballad of Gay Tony]]).

In [[Grand Theft Auto IV|GTA IV]], in contrast to the Perennial's rustic station wagon appearance throughout the GTA III Era, the Perennial is now based on a more streamlined and modern minivan, the [[wp:Honda Odyssey#Third generation (2003–2008)|JDM Third Generation Honda Odyssey]]. The US version of the Honda Odyssey is much taller and more formal-looking, so it appears to be the JDM/International version of the Odyssey, which looks more futuristic and is not sold in the US despite it being common in the game. It does not have sliding doors, as the international version does not feature them. The rear of the sides and rear window are also similar to those a [[wp:Mercedes-Benz R-Class|Mercedes-Benz R-Class]]. It is the only vehicle in GTA IV which has fully glassed roof, which is very reminiscent of the ill-fated [[wp:Renault Avantime|Renault Avantime]], though it was a coupe and not an MPV. The taillights seem invented but loosely resemble a [[wp:Honda Accord#Seventh generation (2003–2007)|2003-2005 (US) Accord]]. The interior seating is part leather and part cloth. | In [[Grand Theft Auto IV|GTA IV]], in contrast to the Perennial's rustic station wagon appearance throughout the GTA III Era, the Perennial is now based on a more streamlined and modern minivan, the [[wp:Honda Odyssey#Third generation (2003–2008)|JDM Third Generation Honda Odyssey]].

GTA IV's Perennial is also available as an airport shuttle van, bearing [[FlyUS]] liveries and a strobe light, lacking a glass roof, and spawning at the [[Francis International Airport | GTA IV's Perennial is also available as an airport shuttle van, bearing [[FlyUS]] liveries and a strobe light, lacking a glass roof, and spawning at the [[Francis International Airport in GTA IV Era|Francis International Airport]]. | ||
The [[Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars|GTA Chinatown Wars]] rendition appears to revert to an older design, sporting a lean 1970s appearance more alike early renditions of the [[Regina]]. For the PSP and iOS renditions however, the Perennial adopts the GTA IV design; the front end however seems to have been tweaked such that it resembles the second-generation Toyota Previa/Estima/Tarago. | The [[Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars|GTA Chinatown Wars]] rendition appears to revert to an older design, sporting a lean 1970s appearance more alike early renditions of the [[Regina]].
