Ultimate GTA V Mods To Play

From the very beginning, when GTA 5 started to conquer the gaming industry, the modding community has created a lot of mods. Some GTA mods involve improvements in utility and visuals, while others target mission and gameplay mods. Yet, the majority of players still prefer mods related to vehicles. And it is not surprising given the perfect mechanics of driving in the game, a wide selection of cars, and more.

Vehicles are extremely important in GTA V since they are not only a handy way of transportation but also help in combat, social interaction, and gameworld exploration. While in the game version of 2013, there were 300 vehicle types, GTA V can boast over 760! The process of adding more and new cars never stops, so every GTA V fan should know how to use this peculiarity fully!

Realistic Driving V

If you explore GTA V forums, game fans often complain that the car handling is not up to the mark. For example, vehicles are often handled as arcade ones, which is not appropriate in some situations and scenarios. Trucks and big cars that transport cargo may be the only exception to this rule. All other cars behave almost the same. This can significantly decrease the overall gaming experience. The situation changes dramatically with the launch of Realistic Driving V mod. Designers added the following features to this mod:

• Enhanced driving physics;
• Offroad driving is close to real-life experience;
• Increased car deformation after crashes;
• Disabling of automated breaks;
• Better improvements to police cars.

What’s more, now, vehicle performance perfectly matches its real-life variation. Try this add-on, which is available for all GTA V Story Mod cars.

Realistic Ultimate Speed and Acceleration

Real car physics comes hand-in-hand with the vehicle’s top speed and acceleration. Notable that all vehicles in the original gameplay are kept at lower speeds. The fastest car in the game (story mode) is Vapid Pißwasser Dominator. If you are lucky, you can reach up to 126.50 mph or 203.58 km/h driving this car. The Realistic Top Speed and Acceleration mode changed the rules and made cars drive faster. For example, you may sit in the Progen T20 and reach up to 360 km/h. If you do the same in the original game, you can reach a maximum speed of 122.25 mph or 196.74 km/h.

IVPack – GTA IV vehicles in GTA V

Developers from Rockstar Games always try to cater to the needs of as many GTA fans as possible. Thus, before creating the fifth iteration of the game, they decided to add several cars from Grand Theft Auto 4, which were (and, for many, still are) the favorite ones for many enthusiasts.

Yet, it was not enough and many of the top options were missing.

The situation has changed with the IVPack mod that allows players to drive GTA 4 cars in the 5th version of the game. One of the main features of the mod is that some cars are available for detailed tuning. Also, cars have the latest top interiors with a lot of function options, including a properly working radio. What’s more, players do not need to struggle to find desirable cars all across the Los Santos map. Instead, the majority of them are available simply in the traffic.

Better Deformation/Durability of Cars

GTA V has always attracted players with the physics that is responsible for car deformation during crashes. With new technologies, it became possible to change the way cars break and deform much better than it was in the 2013 version of the game. A lot of gaming fans complain about the vanilla deformation of GTA 5 and that it is way too pre-programmed. This means you can predict in advance the part of the car that will be deformed after the specific crash.

These complaints became a reason why this mod was launched. Now, you can deform and damage a car the way you like. It’s up to you to drive directly into the building or to go off the bridge and experience unique deformations. Along with this, changes were applied to the engine. For example, while the crash impacts the looks of the car, it strengthens the engine and makes it more durable. Thus, even after a severe crash, you can still drive a car until it is completely destroyed.

The Fast and the Furious Cars Pack

GTA V and the popular Fast and Furious movie franchise have a lot in common. They both are widely known for powerful and high-speed cars. What’s more, many movies within a franchise have been shot exactly in Los Angeles, which is the direct inspiration for Los Santos. Thus, if you like both GTA V and this movie’s franchise, then it is a must for you to try this mod. We are 100% sure you won’t regret it!

Even though not all the cars from the movie were brought into this mode, the top ones are still available! Among them are Dinka Jester Classic, Declasse Sabre Turbo, Willard Faction, and more. The modded vehicles pleasantly surprise players with original bodywork and badging. This definitely makes them the most iconic. For maximum immersion into the gameplay, all cars are highly detailed. This relates to both internal and external design. Also, they perform the same, including actual speeds, acceleration, and more.

Vanillaworks Extended Pack

This is another comprehensive mod that boosts the game’s vehicle selection with a plethora of lore-friendly vehicles built by different enthusiasts and modders. All games fit seamlessly into the GTA V world without compromising aesthetic as well as thematic consistency. Choose among dozens of options, from trucks to emergency vehicles, that perfectly cater to almost any gameplay style and preference.

Another feature to point out is natural traffic spawning. This means cars are naturally spawned in traffic, boosting the overall immersion into the GTA V universe. Of course, these vehicles can be easily customized with multiple tuning parts and liveries. What can be better than to create a personalized vehicle?

That’s not all! This mod is actively maintained and polished, with multiple updates addressing bugs and bringing new extra content based on community feedback. By the way, exactly an active community is the main driver for changes: developers constantly cooperate with gaming fans to bring the gaming experience to the top. Compared to many other mods, this one contains additional documentation with detailed guides on installation, compatibility, and other useful info.
