A promotional screenshot for GTA V depicts an Infernus similar to that in GTA IV, but featuring minor cosmetic modifications on the front bumper, such as slightly wider bumper grills along with a different rim design. The Infernus' new wheel design in GTA V is based on that of the [[wp:Lamborghini Reventón|Lamborghini Reventón]], a limited-production supercar based on the Murciélago.

[[Legendarymotorsport.net]] says that the Infernus is powered by a 610 bhp 6.0L engine, possibly a V12 (with the 610 bhp being a reference to the [[wp:Lamborghini Huracán|Lamborghini Huracán LP 610-4]], which is similarly powered by a 610 bhp V10 engine).

The Infernus in GTA IV is extremely fast and one of the fastest (with a top speed of 360 km/h / 224 mph) cars in this game but is highly susceptible to deformation from high-speed impacts, and even impacts which do little damage can [[Windshield Ejection|eject the driver through the windshield]]. It is one of the fastest cars in GTA IV, and accordingly, it's a good racing car; it does, however, suffer from understeer in sharp turns at speed. It is a mid-engined all-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]].

Due to its very low profile, it is possible for the Infernus in GTA IV to "scoop" some larger vehicles during collisions, causing them to either drive over the car or even launch off the Infernus in the case of head-on collisions. This seems to do only minor damage to the Infernus.

Much like other renditions of the Infernus', the GTA Chinatown Wars Infernus boasts excellent acceleration and top speed and excellent brake response, but has a penchant for spinning out when cornering in higher speeds. While the car can soak up similar amounts of damage as most other vehicles, the tendency for vehicles to receive more damage from high speed crashes in GTA Chinatown Wars also makes the game's Infernus more likely to be destroyed faster.

The GTA V Infernus performs virtually identical to the GTA IV rendition.
The GTA V Infernus performs virtually identical to the GTA IV rendition. However, its top speed has been downgraded to 209 mph (336 km/h), presumably in an attempt to keep the Infernus closer to the real-life Murciélago in performance (the Murciélago base model has a top speed of 205 mph (330 km/h)).
