Liberty City has more than 60 vehicles, many of them adapted from Grand Theft Auto IV and a few new ones. This page lists the separate models by type, and it points to where side activities hand you a particular vehicle. Variants made by changing an existing model, such as the gang Burritos, are not listed separately.

Sports, super and race vehicles

These are the fastest rides and the ones you want for street races. The Go Kart is the vehicle for the Go-Kar-TT time trial at Liberty Go-Karts.
