Overview
The Squalo is a Grand Theft Auto boat modelled on an offshore performance powerboat (Chris-Craft Stinger / Cigarette-style). Rockstar has not shown or named the Squalo for GTA 6, so everything below is drawn from its real-world basis and its history across the series — not from confirmed GTA 6 detail.
History in the GTA Series
The Squalo debuted in GTA Vice City (2002) and was one of the most recognizable boats in that game. Its speed and sleek design made it the premium watercraft for players who wanted to travel the waterways in style. The Squalo returned in GTA Vice City Stories (2006) and GTA V (2013), maintaining its position as a high-end sport boat. In GTA V, the Squalo competed with the Speeder and Jetmax for the fastest boat crown, with its balanced handling earning it fans among players who valued control alongside speed. The Squalo has one of the longest histories of any boat in the franchise. Whether it returns in GTA 6 has not been confirmed.
The Squalo has represented high-performance powerboat capability in GTA since its introduction, providing players with a watercraft that delivers genuine racing-class performance on open water. Its Cigarette Racing inspiration connects it to the most prestigious name in American powerboat racing, a brand that has dominated offshore competition for decades through relentless engineering development and a refusal to compromise on performance. This racing heritage gives the Squalo cultural credibility within the marine vehicle category.
What We Actually Know About It in GTA 6
Rockstar has not shown or named the Squalo for GTA 6. It is a long-running series staple, going back to GTA Vice City (2002), which makes a GTA 6 version reasonable to expect — but expectation is not confirmation. Rockstar has published no top speed, acceleration, handling rating, price, spawn location or customization list for the Squalo in GTA 6 — the in-game economy and traffic spawns have not been shown at that level of detail. As a boat you can reasonably expect on-water handling we can only guess at until launch; past GTA games let you find vehicles like this in traffic, buy them from in-game websites, or earn them through missions, and we expect something similar. Once the game is out we will replace this with verified detail — until then, any exact mph figure, dollar price, street location or upgrade menu quoted for it is invented.
