The '''Newsvan''' is, as self explained, a news van in [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]]. | |||
== Description == | |||
=== Design === | |||
The Newsvan is designed as a news van for [[SAN News]], with a satellite dish on the roof, and its rear compartment containing crudely rendered broadcasting equipment as well as a chair. It has no special function (despite having a satellite dish), and is not important to any missions. The front appears to based on a fourth generation Ford Econoline but the sides seem to be from the third generation Econoline. The sides could as well be from a 1979–1993 Dodge Ram Van since the taillights seem inspired from one. | |||
== | === Performance === | ||
The performance of the Newsvan is moderate-to-excellent, with a moderate acceleration with good torque, a good top speed, good hill climbing capabilities, and good durability. Due to its height, however, it has a tendency to flip if driven over rough terrains. The Newsvan's braking is very good. | |||

In the mission [[Cut Throat Business]] there is a chance to get an indestructible Newsvan with a unique white color. The player may simply fail the mission by failing to chase the fleeing [[OG Loc]] in the beginning, thereby gaining the Newsvan, which remains parked at the same location. | |||
