Buffalo Cruiser in GTA 5

Overview

The Buffalo Cruiser is Bravado's police interceptor version of the Buffalo in the Emergency class, seating four and priced at $4,435,000 through Warstock Cache and Carry. It brings genuine sports sedan pace to a law enforcement livery. Testing has it at 116.5 mph flat out with a 1:05.165 lap on the benchmark circuit, strong figures for the Emergency class. Rear wheel drive on a relatively light 1710 mass gives it sharp, responsive handling for a car built around pursuit work. It arrived with the A Safehouse in the Hills update in April 2026, one of the newest additions to the Emergency class. A more track focused STX Pursuit version is sold separately if you want even more pace.
