Gran Turismo 7 Update Features Legendary Car

Although the PlayStation 5 exclusive racing game, Gran Turismo 7, launched three years ago, developer Polyphony Digital has continued to support its latest iteration with regularly released updates and brand-new content for its players to enjoy. Today’s update, simply called Update 1.60, is no different, as it brings a trio of new cars to its ever-growing lineup of vehicles, as well as new events. Additionally, like any update, it also introduces several improvements and adjustments to make the driving experience smoother.

Arguably, the most exciting additions with the new Gran Turismo 7 update are the cars. The Citroen BX 19 TRS ’87, Peugot SUV 2008 Allure ’21, and Lancia Delta HF Integrale Rally Car ’92 are all available to use in-game. The Lancia Delta HF is probably the most notable of the bunch, especially for rally enthusiasts, as it was one of the most dominant cars in the WRC in the late 80s and early 90s.

Here are the full patch notes for Gran Turismo 7 update 1.60.
