DARTZ, a Latvian company that makes armored luxury off-road vehicles, is preparing a custom-ordered car called the Nightshark VI. It is a real-life version of the HVY Nightshark, an SUV from the video game Grand Theft Auto Online. The first public presentation is planned for Miami in the United States in November 2026, during the week the game GTA VI is due for release.
The vehicle was built to a private client's order, and its value is estimated at more than one million dollars. The design draws on elements of DARTZ's own armored SUVs, which had already been used for the look of the game's virtual vehicle.
Technical specifications
The Nightshark VI is based on an extended GM GMT 825 chassis. Under the hood is an AMG 6.2-liter V8 engine producing more than 500 horsepower. The body panels are made of carbon fiber reinforced with armor.

The source does not say how many units will be built or who the buyer is. It states only that this unique project was made for a single client and will be shown to the public for the first time in Miami.
