In GTA IV, the Securicar, manufactured by [[Brute]], is a larger vehicle with a realistic design, similar in shape to the GTA San Andreas rendition. The truck chassis is based on an armored [[WP:Navistar International|1989-2001 International 4000 Series]], but the front turning signals have been omitted. The cargo area has a similarly shaped roof to the GTA San Andreas rendition. The Securicar shares its basic chassis with the [[NOOSE]] [[Enforcer]] and [[Police Stockade]], the latter of which may be the "original".

The GTA IV Securicar will spawn a large amount of [[Money|cash]] around it if blown up, but doing so with weapons will immediately attract a 2-star [[Wanted Level in GTA IV|wanted level]], regardless of where it is done. To avoid this, the player can use one of the car-bombs supplied by [[Patrick McReary]] (this is his [[Friendships in GTA IV|friendship]] bonus) to blow up the car, or damage it enough while driving it that it will burst into flames and explode.

In GTA IV, the Securicar's handling and acceleration have been greatly enhanced, and it will no longer tip over when turning through corners. It is highly resistant to gunfire and everyday vehicle damage, but it is not explosion- or fire-proof, and so can be destroyed by a single grenade or RPG explosion.
