Rockstar continues to stock up GTA Online with new content. This week the Manchez Scout has finally been added along with a range of discounts for the Kosatka submarine. Also, the Toreador has been added as this week’s Podium Vehicle.

Despite being released 8 years ago, GTA 5, in one form or another, still continues to get more items and opportunities added to it. This week’s update is no exception.

Thanks to our usual GTA Online leaker TezFunz2, we have information on new vehicles and discounts in this week’s update & patch notes.

Manchez Scout added to GTA Online

Originally announced during the Cayo Perico expansion, the Manchez Scout has now been added to the game.

Described as a military off-road motorcycle, the Manchez Scout is a stylish and nimble beast. If you want to take a ride on it, it’ll set you back $225,000.

GTA Online Diamond Casino Lucky Wheel Reward

You’re going to want to make sure you don’t miss out on the Diamond Casino Lucky Wheel as this week’s prize is simply fabulous. Rockstar has generously put the Toreador up for grabs.

The Toreador is worth a staggering $3,660,000 and here’s the official description of the vehicle:

No land? No problem. With Pegassi’s submersible, booster-fitted sports car, taking your life and all its problems out to sea has never been faster. Nothing is as therapeutic for the soul as the endless blue of the Pacific Ocean and firing off a few torpedoes at passersby.

Major GTA Online Discounts

One of the biggest additions to GTA Online recently has been the Kosatka submarine that came as part of the Cayo Perico update. The costly submarine is fun but requires a lot of cash to upgrade.

Here are some new discounts for it to ease that burden:

  • Sonar Station ($900,000)
  • Guided Missiles ($1,425,000)
  • Moon Pool Vehicles (S>$1,361,250 – A>$1,158,750)
  • Weapon Workshop ($262,500)

40% Off Vehicles

  • Buzzard ($1,050,000)
  • Reaper ($957,000)
  • Sea Sparrow ($1,089,000)

30% Off

  • Coquette D10 ($1,057,000)

25% Off Vehicles

  • Alkonost ($3,262,500)
  • Stealth Annihilator ($2,902,500)

That should just about cover everything in this bumper update to begin the new year. We are surely counting down the weeks until we get GTA 6 details so keep enjoying GTA Online in the meantime.
