The Übermacht Oracle XS (dubbed simply Oracle when entered) is a four-door luxury sedan in Grand Theft Auto IV.

Description

Design

The Oracle is a four-door sedan which inherits the general design and role previously filled by the Sentinel in the GTA III era (the GTA IV Sentinel is redesigned as a two-door sports coupe). The Oracle resembles the BMW E65/E66/E67/E68 7 Series (2002-2008), particularly the pre-facelift models (2002-2005). The only noticeable differences are inverted front indicators, a slightly different taillight design, and the lack of BMW's traditional kidney-shaped grilles.

There is a slightly modified variant of the Oracle driven by members of the McReary Mob. It is painted dark green with front and rear bumper kits and a sport mesh grill, and its badge markings are removed. This variant is often seen in Steinway, Dukes.

Performance

The Oracle is probably powered by a V8 or V10, and is thus able to achieve a decent high speed with satisfactory acceleration. Its handling is superb for a car of its size, and it is durable, owing to its luxury construction. The soft suspension means that the car is comfortable on all surfaces.
