\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n

The Gran Turismo World Series 2024 World Finals in Amsterdam has revealed another new car is heading to Gran Turismo 7<\/em> soon, with a second unique vehicle based on classic Formula One machinery.<\/p>\n

Dubbed the F3500-A, the vehicle joins the older F1500T-A in the “Gran Turismo” brand stable as an unlicensed but really rather recognizable Formula One car from days gone. <\/p>\n

Just as with the F1500T-A — a 1.5-liter turbo — the F3500-A’s name gives away what lurks beneath: a 3.5-liter, naturally aspirated engine. According to the event preview, the car sports some 773hp, although it’s not immediately apparent what engine that is.<\/p>\n

Commentary pinned it as a V12, but to our ears — and the fact it looks like a 1991 Williams FW14 — we reckon it’s a V10. We’d say it’s a spiritual successor of Gran Turismo 3<\/em>’s F1-inspired cars which, notably, were different depending on which region of the game you had!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n

The competitors in the Gran Turismo World Series Nations Cup final<\/a> raced the car in the second race of the finals, giving us a first look (and listen) of the F3500-A in action in a race at — where else? — Monza.<\/p>\n

As for when players might get their hands on it in the public build of Gran Turismo 7<\/em>, there was no specific information forthcoming. However the commentary team suggested it would be “relatively soon” and we are expecting a game update in January 2025 to bring the already-revealed Hyundai IONIQ 5N<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Along with the two cars, the World Finals have also given us a good look at a potential future application for the Gran Turismo Sophy AI with an exhibition of a B-Spec mode<\/a>. Mark us down as very intrigued!<\/p>\n
