Gran Turismo 7: new cars land with the April update

Three new cars, a new track layout, and a suite of other updates arrive with Gran Turismo 7 patch 1.13, the April update. 

Taking center stage are the Subaru BRZ GT300 ’21, Subaru BRZ S ’21, and Suzuki Cappuccino (EA11R) ’91. The former two are purchasable at Brand Central, while the latter will be available from the Used Car Dealership from tomorrow, April 26. One new track layout is also available, the 24-hour layout for Spa-Francorchamps, offering some extremely long-term racing. Three events have also been added to this layout.

In addition, the patch brings a host of tweaks to UI, UX, and even some balance changes – more literally, for cars, I suppose. Most notably, the performance of rear-wheel drive has been improved through suspension calculation updates and your controller should now relate better to what’s happening in-game.

There have also been tweaks to multiplayer elements to better introduce new players and to keep a handle on Performance Point bugs. Given this is the system that limits how powerful a car is allowed into various races, these are pretty vital changes to keep everyone on a fair playing field.

Plenty more images of those lovely new vroom-mobiles in the official blog post and the rest of the patch notes over here. While you’re here, see how GT7 stacks up against the other PS5 games we recommend.
