File:Infernus (GTA3) (front).jpg
An Infernus in Grand Theft Auto III (Rear quarter view).

The Infernus is a sports car that has appeared in all games of the GTA III Era (except Grand Theft Auto Advance), and GTA IV.

Design

GTA III — GTA Vice City Stories

Between Grand Theft Auto III and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, the Infernus had appeared in three different forms, each illustrating the car as a sleek, low-profile sports car comparable to the Cheetah:

Although the Infernus' design suggests a mid-engined layout in GTA III and GTA Liberty City Stories, its engine is visible under the front hood, possibly due to limitations of the game engine. The GTA Vice City and GTA Vice City Stories renditions reposition the engine to the back; the front compartment is revealed to be the trunk. The GTA Vice City Infernus, however, still emits smoke from the front if moderately damaged. The GTA San Andreas Infernus is intentionally front-engined.

In GTA San Andreas, the Infernus can be modded at any TransFender branch.

GTA IV — GTA Chinatown Wars

The Grand Theft Auto IV rendition is largely based on the Lamborghini Murciélago LP640, with the rear end inspired by the Pagani Zonda. The Infernus features scissor doors, which are seen on no other GTA IV vehicle.

Players who pre-ordered Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars from Amazon are able to purchase a bulletproof Infernus early in the game.

Performance

GTA III — GTA San Andreas

The Infernus' handling remains similar between GTA III and GTA Vice City, but in San Andreas, although it is the fastest car in the game, (top speed 240 km/h), its cornering ability is considerably inferior to its prior renditions.

GTA IV

The Infernus is extremely fast, but is highly susceptible to deformation from high-speed impacts, and even impacts which do little damage can eject the driver through the windshield (See Windshield Ejection). In GTA IV, it is the third fastest car in the game (after the Comet and the Coquette), with a top speed of 336 km/h (208 mph); accordingly, it's a good racing car. It is a mid-engined four-wheel drive, like the real Murciélago; the mid-engine configuration makes it unlikely to break down or be set aflame from front-end collisions, another benefit when racing. While reversing, the Infernus can be easily turned 180 degrees with a mere nudge to the steering wheel, which can be useful after losing control of the vehicle. The Infernus has the same engine sound as the Comet and the Super GT.

Color Bug

If the Infernus in GTA IV is taken to the Pay n Spray several times, it will lock into a dark green color.

Locations

GTA III

GTA Vice City

  • Parked in front of the mansion owned by Ricardo Diaz, and later Tommy Vercetti. Prior to the mansion's change of hand, the Infernus is featured with a conventional range of body colors. Thereafter, the car appears with a unique white body color, suggesting the car is Lance Vance's white Infernus.
  • On a platform in North Point Mall. The car is there as part of a competition, but the competition cannot be entered.

GTA San Andreas

GTA Liberty City Stories

GTA Vice City Stories

GTA IV

File:Infernus (GTA4) (Bryce Dawkins') (front).jpg
The reward for completing the "Buoys Ahoy" in GTA IV will be an Infernus available in one of two shades of orange and a black strip on the sideskirts.
  • An Infernus can be encountered relatively early on if one spawns as a competitor (or in traffic) during Brucie's street races. These can be stolen, although killing an opponent and stealing their car will forfeit the race, lowering Brucie's approval rating.
  • Stevie will send you a message saying that he requires an Infernus to be delivered to his garage. This Infernus always has a unique gold paintjob. Like all of Stevie's desired cars, it will respawn if taken away, and thus can be "duplicated". Find the Infernus, park it at a safehouse, then return to its original location; a new Infernus will be there, and this can be delivered to Stevie instead.
  • An Infernus, previously owned by Bryce Dawkins, is given to the player by Bernie Crane after completing all of his missions. It is the only Infernus variant in the game, sporting a stripe on the sideskirt, black sports rims, and a one-of-a-kind bright orange paintjob which will not appear anywhere else in the game.
  • In GTA IV Multiplayer it can be seen driving around the streets of Liberty City.
  • Riding an NRG 900 around, especially in and around Star Junction, may cause an Infernus to spawn eventually.
  • As with most cars, Infernuses will spawn more readily once the player is already driving one. Approaching the South Bohan safehouse from the southern bridge may be a good way to spawn parked Infernuses near a convenient storing place.
