Car Bomb
A Car Bomb is an explosive device placed in a car to be detonated. In GTA Advance it is used as a weapon and the player needs to place the car bomb in the car himself.
Grand Theft Auto IV
Car bombs in GTA:IV may be obtained through Patrick McReary as a friend special option. They will be left in the player's general location, and are remote detonated. They can be attached to any vehicle once in the player's possession.
Types
There are three types of car bombs.
- Engine Ignition Detonation
The player has to arm the bomb while in a car. When anyone enters the car, the bomb will immediately detonate.
- Five-Second Time Delay Detonation
The player has to arm the bomb and wait five seconds for the bomb to detonate.
- Remote Detonation
The bomb is remotely detonated using a Detonator.
