Grand Theft Auto Online is getting a little faster and furious-er with the new update Los Santos Tuners. Along with a new social space to show off your personalized cars, this expansion adds new races, rewards, and cars. Some car upgrades, however, will be exclusive to the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S version of GTA Online coming later this year.

The Los Santos Tuners update is a multi-pronged update that begins with a new social space in Cypress Flats called the LS Car Meet. There, players can unlock a new Reputation progression with rewards at each level, access to the Test Track for online races, and Test Rides where you can sample high-end cars.

The Prize Ride Challenges will let players compete for Prize Ride and access to special shops like the Merch Shop, Tattoo Shop, Modding Area, and Private Takeover which lets you decorate the Car Meet space to your style.

Along with new races including a Street Race series where you’ll compete in the streets against other races and the LSPD, you can earn new upgrades and cars. Rockstar is promising 17 new cars in total over the summer, with 10 coming on July 20 when the update goes live.

However, some vehicles will be upgradable with “all-new speed improvements and more,” but these “special upgrades will be available only on PlayStation and Xbox Series X|S versions of Grand Theft Auto 5.”

This upgrade is scheduled to be released in November, but with consoles still hard to find, here’s hoping there are PS5s and Xbox Series X|S to go around by the time the upgrade lands.
