* In [[Grand Theft Auto III]] and [[Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories]], it resembles a [[wp:Vector M12|Vector M12]] with the rear end incorporating elements of a [[wp:Lamborghini Diablo|Lamborghini Diablo]]. It may also be a cross between a [[wp:Jaguar XJR-15|Jaguar XJR-15]] and a [[wp:Jaguar XJ220|Jaguar XJ220]]. However, like with the M12 and Diablo, the Infernus has a V12 engine. During [[Beta Releases#Grand Theft Auto III|development of GTA III]], one of the earliest known names given to the car is the "'''Dyablo'''", a nod to the Lamborghini Diablo name; contrary to its final form, the car shares an uncanny resemblance to the Lamborghini Diablo and is illustrated without a rear spoiler. The car in its earlier form and with its earlier name is depicted on the [[Capital Autos]] website. | * In [[Grand Theft Auto III]] and [[Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories]], it resembles a [[wp:Vector M12|Vector M12]] with the rear end incorporating elements of a [[wp:Lamborghini Diablo|Lamborghini Diablo]].

* In [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]] and [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories]], it closely resembles a [[wp:Lamborghini Countach|Lamborghini Countach LP 500]], but lacks the characteristic scissor doors, and features bulging headlights and round taillights. During development of GTA Vice City, early screenshots hinted of a design closer to the Countach LP 500, featuring a sleeker and more angular frontage, blocky lights, and a heightened spoiler. | * In [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]] and [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories]], it closely resembles a [[wp:Lamborghini Countach|Lamborghini Countach LP 500]], but lacks the characteristic [[wp:Scissor doors|scissor doors]], and features bulging headlights and round taillights.

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 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 steam, smoke, or fire from the front if damaged enough, again due to game limitations. The GTA San Andreas Infernus is front-engined by design, unlike its real-life counterpart, which uses a rear mid-engine layout. | ||
In GTA San Andreas, the Infernus can be modded at any [[TransFender]] branch. | In GTA San Andreas, the Infernus can be modded at any [[TransFender]] branch. | ||
