The Exciting Return of Gran Turismo 7

Gran Turismo 7 has captured the hearts of racing fans since its launch in March 2022, both on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5. This long-awaited entry continues the legacy of one of the greatest driving simulators ever crafted.

Monthly Updates Keep the Thrill Alive

Even though fans are eagerly awaiting the next installment, Polyphony Digital keeps the game vibrant with monthly updates featuring fresh races, online events, and exciting new cars.

Introducing the 2002 Renault Avantime!

This month, players are in for a treat with the arrival of the quirky 2002 Renault Avantime, marking its first appearance in Gran Turismo 7. Alongside powerful Chevrolet Corvette concepts, this unique minivan brings an eccentric charm to the game.

A Classic with a Unique Edge

The Renault Avantime is no stranger to the Gran Turismo series, having previously appeared in Gran Turismo 4 through 6. Unlike its absence in the racetrack-focused Gran Turismo Sport, its return to GT7 allows for exploration beyond just performance cars.

Specs That Surprise!

In-game, the Avantime boasts a 3.0-liter V-6 engine, delivering 207 horsepower and 210 pound-feet of torque. While it might not win any speed contests with a 0-60 mph time of around eight seconds, its quirky design and unique aura make it a memorable collectible.

A New Era of Corvette

The update also includes the stunning Chevrolet CX Concept and CX.R Vision Gran Turismo, showcased at The Quail in Monterey. Though they may not reach production, players can take them for a spin in the game!

A Cult Classic Worth the Wait

With just about 8,500 units produced from 2001 to 2003, the Avantime earned a reputation for its eccentricity. American fans can anticipate the opportunity to import this collectible by 2026 under current laws.

Gran Turismo 7: The Ultimate Playground!

For now, Gran Turismo 7 offers the perfect avenue to experience the eccentric Renault Avantime, blending nostalgia, uniqueness, and a hint of racing excitement. Get ready to shift gears in this one-of-a-kind vehicle!
