The '''Stratum''' is a mid-sized 4-door station wagon seen in [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]] and [[Grand Theft Auto IV]]. The Stratum has a more streamlined design than other station wagons in the series.

=== Design ===

The Stratum's design, performance, and its likely V6 engine suggest that it is derived from the [[wp:Honda Accord#Fifth generation (1994–1997)|fifth generation (1994–1997) Honda Accord wagon]]; however D-pillars have been added. The car's real-life counterpart fails to fit in the game's time setting (1992).

The car is a gang car preferred by the [[San Fierro Triads]].

=== Design ===

In GTA IV, the [[Zirconium]] Stratum 2.6GT still takes its primary inspiration from the [[wp:Honda Accord#Fifth generation (1994–1997)|fifth generation Honda Accord station wagon]] (with the same added pillars as the previous rendition), albeit with a front end derived from the [[wp:Nissan Skyline|R32 Nissan Skyline]], the rear end loosely resembles the first generation Subaru Impreza station wagon, and C-pillars which may be derived from the 1996-2001 Toyota Camry wagon. The game's Stratum may appear in two forms, the standard model or the "Twin Turbo" variant, which features an additional spoiler over the rear windscreen and a "Twin Turbo" badge in the rear. The GTA IV rendition also features an optional sunroof or luggage rails, or a slight bodykit.

* The front of a Stratum is very similar to the front of a [[Solair]]. The two cars are so similar, that people who play both GTA San Andreas and GTA IV infrequently often get the two cars confused.

* In GTA San Andreas, it is one of the gang cars used by the [[San Fierro Triads]], the other two being the [[Elegy]] and the [[Sultan]]; it heavily increases [[Carl Johnson|CJ's]] [[Statistics|sex appeal]].

* In GTA IV, after completing [[Stevie]]'s text message car thefts, the Stratum may be sold in his garage for $1,800.

* The Stratum plays the following radio stations by default when entered:

** [[Bounce FM]] in GTA San Andreas.

** [[Integrity 2.0]], [[WKTT Radio]] or [[Public Liberty Radio]] in GTA IV.

** [[Integrity 2.0]], [[We Know The Truth|WKTT Radio]] or [[Public Liberty Radio]] in GTA IV.

* In a [[Beta Releases|prerelease]] screenshot of GTA San Andreas, the Stratum had an emblem on the hood.<ref>[http://www.gtasanandreas.net/screenshots/gallery.php?image=60 Prerelease screenshot of a Stratum]</ref>

* Oddly, the front turn signal lights do not illuminate in GTA IV, however they do illuminate on the ground like every other car.
