Declasse's Moonbeam is GTA's plain-Jane compact van, a shape borrowed from the Chevrolet Astro and GMC Safari built between 1985 and 1994, two of the few American vans of that era to use rear-wheel drive rather than a front-drive minivan layout. Rockstar also lists the second-generation Jeep Liberty SUV among its references, a boxier compact SUV sold last decade, which suggests some of the Moonbeam's later styling passes borrowed from a more modern shape.
In GTA 5 the Moonbeam earned its Muscle class listing less for how it drives stock and more for what players do to it afterward. It became a favorite blank canvas for wild custom builds, a deliberately unglamorous van that hides real performance potential once modified. That reputation is tied to the current version and its file-recorded four-seat, rear-wheel-drive setup, not to anything confirmed about how the GTA 6 model will behave.
The Moonbeam surfaced for GTA 6 through gameplay clips that leaked in September 2022. Rockstar has not confirmed a price, stats, or whether the modification options that made the original famous will carry over to Leonida at all.
Performance specs land at release. Everything confirmed so far is in the key facts. The bars stay hollow until we have tested numbers, the same way a hollow wanted star means the police know something happened but not what.
