	The Freeway in GTA IV features similar performance traits from its previous incarnations, retaining an average top speed of 117 kph/73 mph and average acceleration, as well as fairly weak steering. Due to the bike's average grip, it also has a tendency to tailspin, making the bike less controllable when cornering. Its brakes, however, are fairly responsive.

			[[Angel]]s in GTA Vice City, GTA Liberty City Stories and GTA Vice City Stories generally share the exact body design of Freeways in their respectable games, but feature unique paintwork, modified performance traits and, in the case of GTA Vice City, additional accessories. The [[Avenger]] in GTA Liberty City Stories is also similarly based on the Angel.

	In GTA IV, a Freeway is requested as part of [[Stevie's Car Thefts]], appearing with a beige coloring. As a new Freeway will respawn at the same spot until the player delivers one to [[S&M Auto Sales]], the player can save one at their safehouse before delivering another.

			Between GTA Vice City and GTA Vice City Stories, the bike is designed with ape handles, and was largely unchanged in form, as the GTA Liberty City Stories and GTA Vice City Stories renditions were recycled GTA Vice City Freeways with the left exhaust pipes removed (the GTA Vice City rendition is the only Freeway with exhaust pipes on both sides), while the GTA San Andreas rendition is the only one to receive significant cosmetic refinements.

			=== Performance ===
			Freeways between GTA Vice City and GTA Vice City Stories feature fairly powerful engines; in GTA Vice City and GTA Liberty City Stories, the Freeway the third fastest motorcycle behind the [[PCJ-600]] and [[Angel]]. However, its steering and braking are less responsive due to its heavier weight, resulting in the constant need for e-brake-aided turns around sharper corners. Due to its heavy weight, it is also unsuitable for stunts or off-roading, but its speed makes it suited for ordinary street-cruising.

Due to the bike's average grip, it also has a tendency to tailspin, making the bike less controllable when cornering. Its brakes, however, are fairly responsive.
