The Sunrise parked in Los Santos

Overview

The Sunrise is another vehicle that is only available in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. It is one of only two 4 door cars that can arguably be used for both street racing and police evasion. It is sometimes seen driving around in San Fierro and Las Venturas, but is generally absent from Los Santos.

Design

The Sunrise closely resembles an early-90's Pontiac Bonneville SSE.

Performance

While speed is extraordinary, acceleration is slightly disappointing, likely due to the front-wheel drivetrain being poorly matched with the engine. However, handling is taut, and the brakes are strong. The Sunrise reaches very high speeds, even greater then the other four-door racer, the Sultan. The drawback, however, with this car is that due to its lower-than-average curb weight, the very high speeds it is capable of reaching can send it out of control even at the slightest perturbance. Its lowered suspension also prevents this car from being used on uneven roads, hills, and trails.
