Gran Turismo 7 Update 1.43 Released With Patch Notes

Gran Turismo 7 has been one of the premiere racing games for PlayStation fans since it launched in 2022. Developer Polyphony Digital has kept players engaged by dropping all kinds of new content into GT7, and that continues with the new 1.43 Update. The latest patch went live earlier today and features three new cars that are sure to excite long-time fans. The 2009 Audi TTS Coupe leads the way and is joined by the 2006 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX MR GSR and the 1985 Renault R4 GTL. That’s a nice selection of vehicles for players to jump into with the Gran Turismo 7 update, but it doesn’t end there.

GT7 players will also have three new events in World Circuits. The Japanese Clubman Cup 550, Sunday Cup Classic, and European Clubman Cup 600 will all be welcoming new racers. Gran Turismo players will also have access to new content in the Cafe and Scapes, alongside a host of bug fixes and general improvements. That includes a price revision for Legend Cars, which should make some of them a bit more affordable.

Below, you’ll find the full list of patch notes for Update 1.43. Gran Turismo 7 is available now on PlayStation platforms.
