In [[Grand Theft Auto III|GTA III]], [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City|GTA Vice City]] and [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas|GTA San Andreas]], the Perennial has a close resemblance to the [[wp:Chevrolet Nova#First/Second generation|1962-1964 Chevrolet Nova]] station wagon, though they are fashioned much smaller and shorter. The GTA San Andreas version features the most cosmetic changes among the three, with a redesigned frontal V-bumper, redressed light clusters, and metallic side trimming. The GTA Vice City and GTA San Andreas renditions also feature optional roof racks towards the rear. | In [[Grand Theft Auto III|GTA III]], [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City|GTA Vice City]] and [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas|GTA San Andreas]], the Perennial has a close resemblance to the [[wp:Chevrolet Nova#First/Second generation|1962-1964 Chevrolet Nova]] station wagon, though they are fashioned much smaller and shorter.

In [[Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories|GTA Liberty City Stories]] and [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories|GTA Vice City Stories]], the car assumes a slightly newer and slimmer model that resembles a [[wp:Ford Country Squire#Fifth generation .281969.E2.80.931972.29|1969 Ford LTD Country Squire]], based on the position of the side panels and grille, but retains elements of previous iterations of the car in the rear. The cars also constantly feature roof racks. | In [[Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories|GTA Liberty City Stories]] and [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories|GTA Vice City Stories]], the car assumes a slightly newer and slimmer model that resembles a [[wp:Ford Country Squire#Fifth generation .281969.E2.80.931972.29|1969 Ford LTD Country Squire]], based on the position of the side panels and grille, but retains elements of previous iterations of the car in the rear.

The [[Dinka]] Perennial "MPV AW" returns to the GTA lineup with a significant makeover, both in looks and performance. Gone is the horrendous FWD layout, ditched in favor of a rear-biased 30% Front/70% Rear AWD layout (hence, AW). The Perennial is more than likely powered by a mid-range V6, and is coupled to a 5 speed gearbox. Acceleration is now average, with a reasonable top speed. Handling is also upgraded significantly, as the Perennial no longer flops about on the road, but keeps steady. The suspension is quite firm for a vehicle of this size, and aides high-speed cornering. Braking is average, and the optional (but rare) ABS definitely helps. Crash deformation is below average, and as such the Perennial cannot sustain much damage before being un-drivable. However in a head on crash, minimal damage is suffered in the interior. | The [[Dinka]] Perennial "MPV AW" returns to the GTA lineup with a significant makeover, both in looks and performance.
