Kazunori Yamauchi went to X to tease the upcoming update of Gran Turismo 7, dropping in by next week, with the series director adding silhouettes of the said cars coming to the game.

Usually, Polyphony Digital's updates for GT7 which feature new cars to drive only offer three to four new wheels to bring to gamers. However, this is a different case for Gran Turismo 7 this week, with Yamauchi being the one to tease it to gamers via social media.

While for the normal person, these cars would not be recognizable as much, these silhouettes are enough for those who are well-versed in the automotive world. Also, other sleuths did some digging to identify what exactly are these cars coming from.

What are the 7 New Cars Coming to GT7?

According to Traxion.gg, the seven cars center on renowned and favorite rides around the world, offering European, Japanese, and American cars in the lineup. After doing some digging, Traxion has named all the seven cars coming next week in Gran Turismo 7's "big update" coming, and was matched to the said silhouette images from Yamauchi.

The cars coming include:

Mercedes-Benz 190E
Lexus LFA
Tesla Model 3
Porshe 911 GT3 RS (992)
Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat Demon
Nissan NISMO Skyline 400R

However, it is important to note that these are only guesses and that the official list is yet to come from Polyphony once it drops next week.

Gran Turismo's Racing Franchise

The latest Gran Turismo game now is the Gran Turismo 7, and it was part of Sony's release that was made available in cross-gen, meaning that the PlayStation 4 and the PlayStation 5 both have the experience. According to its team, Gran Turismo 7 "did not suffer" from being cross-gen, and that the game was "very scalable" for either the present tech or its previous generation.

This cross-gen upgrade cost gamers a $10 fee for their transfer, with the initial release of the PS5 seeing this imposed on gamers in playing the famed racing game.

GT7 has gained fame among those wanting to get real-world driving experience, with simulation kits and rigs widely available to many, and has been a massive investment for many.

The Gran Turismo experience has always been popular on the PlayStation, and what is iconic with the game is that gamers and sim-racers may enjoy it, for their casual or professional setups. Gran Turismo 7 is coming in with an update coming soon, with Yamauchi teasing a massive part of the update, wanting gamers to anticipate it next week with the new cars dropping soon.
