Drive V is the result of 5 years and over 2,000 hours of learning the physics system and testing in order to create a realistic and fun experience. Every vehicle is unique (even some variants that originally shared the same handling line) and has had careful attention to every single dynamic attribute. The most critical change I felt was needed was the Z-axis rotation, which is what made the vanilla cars feel so darty with every flick of the wheel. Now, heavy and old vehicles have a realistic delay between steering inputs and the car reacting, giving something like the Emperor the sloppy feel of a '70s Cadillac, and making semi trucks actually feel like you're driving a massive rig. You'll also notice vehicles like the Emperor have a very soft suspension and more body roll (like IV), while sporty cars have stiffer suspensions (unlike IV). For an example of the attention to detail: The taxi has less precise steering and poorer brakes than the police variant to reflect wear and tear because taxis are often driven hard with high mileage. The police variant gets a power boost and improved handling to reflect the police package upgrades, but still feels like a heavy Crown Victoria that's prone to oversteer, whereas the Interceptor drives like a more modern car.
Power levels and acceleration have been adjusted to match vehicles' real world counterparts, to the extent of calculating the net SAE horsepower ratings of old muscle cars that used a different rating standard (SAE gross) to determine a true realistic power output. Off-road traction has been overhauled for realism. Damage/deformation has been increased to a realistic level, similar to GTAIV. Downforce has been removed from everything except supercars that would actually produce downforce. Finally, the original game had many cars sitting at unusually low ride heights, so they have been raised to reflect the ride heights of their real world counterparts.
Features:
- Realistic top speeds
- No more snapping onto curbs
- Level of deformation similar to IV
- More body roll
- Downforce disabled from all but supercars
- Vehicle cabin deformation enabled (via ENB)
- Re-worked off-road surfaces
- Lots of customized vehicles added to spawn points
- Lots of new colors based on real life finish options
- Optional realistic traffic edits
- Optional AI driving improvements

New for 7.1: Added support for Bottom Dollar Bounties DLC. Realistic top speeds and recalculated engine power values are now fully supported. New optional AI driving improvements. Increased collision damage (body parts fall off easier). New cars with real life color palettes: Coquette D1, Dominator FX, Euros X32, Vorschlaghammer and Yosemite 1500. New colors for Dominator GTX, Club, Slamvan, Fagaloa, Kanjo, Yosemite, Vivanite, Fusilade, Stratum, Hauler, Ingot, Monroe, Penumbra FF, Rapid GT Classic, Sultan, Serrano, Surano, Tailgater, Guardian, Tow Truck and Speedo.
New customized vehicles added to spawn points, including versions of Dominator FX to replicate 1979 Cobra, 1983 GT, SVO, 1987 ASC/McLaren and 1980 McLaren Mustang, as well as Dorado and Dominator FX highway patrol vehicles. Handling edits to Sentinel and Sentinel XS to better differentiate the two, handling improvements to V-STR and all large trucks/semis have improved turning radius. New engine sound for Cheburek. Artificial burnouts have been removed entirely.
Changes to optional traffic edits: I've reduced the amount of police in the countryside, as they were too common, and fixed an issue causing LSPD to spawn in the countryside. I've also added a small amount of decommissioned police cars to traffic in poor areas.
Issues fixed: Fagaloa horn issue, Vivanite off-roading issue, Sheriff SUV color reverted to b/w.
New for 7.0: Added support for Chop Shop DLC. New colors for both Impalers, FR36, Terminus, Dorado, Dominator GT, Aleutian, Asterope GZ, Cavalcade XL, Vivanite. Customized Impalers added to gangs and Gauntlet Interceptor added to police spawn locations. For the new Drift cars, I've removed the advanced flag that significantly lowers grip artificially. They can now drift without being so slippery. I've taken another shot at bike handling, starting with the PCJ-600. Realistic top speed conversion progress continues, along with the removal of auto-braking. I've also started converting engine power to a new calculation that takes into account power-to-weight ratio, as the game itself does not. Handling edits to Buffalo EVX, Jester Classic, Police Stanier (plus new engine sound), Penetrator, Penumbra, Gauntlet Hellfire, Tornado, Gauntlet Classic, Virgo, Surano, Thrax and Zorrusso. New colors for Radius, Omnis E-GT, Walton, Coquette Classic, Rhinehart, Seminole Frontier, Tahoma, Nebula, Virgo, Club, Blista Compact and Futo. Tulip M-100, Greenwood, Tahoma and Minivan added to gangs. Fixed installer issue affecting Special Races and Criminal Enterprises vehicles.
Changes to optional traffic edits: I have now created a unique vehicle group for rare cars, so that they can actually be set to spawn rarely. I've also added a small amount of police into regular traffic on the streets.
New for 6.9: Added support for Mercenaries DLC. New colors for MonstroCiti, Walton L35 and Bufflao EVX. About 80 percent of all cars have now been converted to realistic top speeds. New colors for Z Type, Riata, Tulip M-100, Comet Safari, Glendale and Pigalle. Adjustments made to Stanier, Cavalcade, Greenwood, Voltic, Schafter, Sentinel, Ruiner, Lurcher and Surge. Added "crushes other vehicles" flag to monster trucks. It's not a huge difference, but it increases damage when you run over another vehicle. Note: Rockstar disabled deformation on the Walton L35 somehow and I cannot find any way to enable it.
New for 6.8: Support for LS Drug Wars DLC. This DLC dropped as I was starting to convert the cars to realistic top speeds. Since I didn't want to keep everyone waiting until I finished converting all 700-something cars in this game, I'm releasing it with partial support for realistic top speeds. The supported vehicles right now are those from the new DLC and the original game vehicles in alphabetical order, ending with the Patriot. Increased power of engine upgrades for Boor, Tahoma and Tulip M-100. Added Calico rally car to customized spawn point. Increased offroad grip for Kuruma, Sultan and Calico. Lowered traction for Weevil. Side note: DriveV is compatible with CruelMaster's Online - Offline mod. I'd always wanted to try out the online missions, but never bothered because of the terrible vanilla handling.
New for 6.7: Support for Criminal Enterprises DLC added with new finishes for Kanjo SJ, Postlude, Greenwood, Ruiner ZZ-8 and Picador, copying real life counterparts' finish options. Traction control disabled on bikes, enabling wheelspin and oversteer. Recommended InversePower settings have been updated, and now oversteer is more easily controllable (this is a big improvement!). New customized cars that will spawn around the map. Large truck and semi turning radii have been tightened (thanks for the feedback!). Muscle car wheelspin somewhat reduced.
New for 6.5: Support for Contracts DLC added, tons of new finishes for various cars, increased the steering angle that Rockstar inexplicably limited on certain cars (does not affect handling, just visual). Traffic issues fixed (I also recommend setting VehicleVarietyMultiplier to 1.4 in settings.xml, just know that the more vehicle variety you have, the less color variety you get). I tried my best to make engine damage more realistic, but the damage system is almost nonsensical and very unpredictable. I've also made detachable parts break off easier, so you'll no longer have a totaled car with the bumpers still attached. All SUVs now have bumper collisions enabled, so offroading should be more realistic, in regard to approach and departure angles. Changed some engine sounds to be more appropriate. Enabled suspension lowering for the Stanier and made the default modkit engine upgrades more powerful and suspension height changes more significant. No WOV patch this time, sorry.
New for 6.0: Support for Tuners DLC added, and new finishes based on the actual colors offered on each car's real world counterpart (this is a teaser, it will be expanded to more DLCs in the future). Another teaser that's applied only to the Tuners DLC is modified engine upgrades: underpowered cars like the Futo and Remus get more significant boosts in power. World of Variety patch added (big thanks to LDNENG), just make sure you use an updated gameconfig because the current release of WOV includes an old one. Cars snapping/popping onto curbs finally fixed. LOTS of customized cars added to existing spawn points around map, and to gangs. These have been carefully considered, for example, classic movie cars spawn in the movie studio parking lot, rally cars and off-roaders can be found on dirt roads, etc. Patriot Limo now spawns with tinted windows. There are also some rare modified police cruisers and limos. TR3 (Yacht trailer from Father/Son mission) handling fixed and added to traffic. New color options for certain base game vehicles (Dominator, Rancher XL, Tornado, Buffalo, Patriot, Bullet, Primo & more). The vanilla color options had too many different shades of silver for each car, so now the traffic is a little more varied in color. Taxis are now all yellow and I've added a pearlescent blue tint to the police cruisers just for fun. Fixed some cars that shouldn't have had ABS. Support for Adventures in Finance and Felony DLC and next gen exclusive vehicles added (missed those before somehow). And LOTS of tweaks to already supported vehicles: Beater Dukes now has less grip (shitty tires), a softer suspension (shot springs/dampers), worn brake pads etc, Sultan Classic now reflects basic WRX specs, while Sultan Classic RS reflects STI Type R specs. Damage fixed on Brutus. Various tweaks to Washington, Dominator, Sentinel, Issi, Bison, Cognoscenti 55, Alpha, Sadler, Asterope, Impaler, Michelli, Tornado, Banshee, Hellion, Surano, Retinue 1&2, Mamba, Nightshade, GT500, Warrener, Dynasty, Coquette Blackfin, Zion Classic, Jester Classic, Gauntlet Classic, Ruiner, Infernus Classic, Dominator GTX, Elegy and more that I can't remember!
New for 5.0: Every DLC update now supported. Base game motorcycles now supported as well. The motorcycles in this game are a real challenge to extract realism from, but I did the best I could to get some level of oversteer and quell how darty they behave. This lead to some issues with the suspension and/or wheels scraping during heavy oversteer that I've mostly eliminated. I also worked on the Blazer quite a bit to make it more controllable and less prone to spinning out. I found the issue with the Stromberg's handling to be the submersible handling data, so I removed it. That means it no longer works as a submarine but now can actually handle normally. I did the same for the Toreador. Big changes to the Tampa Drift. Removed advanced flags from relevant DLCs. Various tweaks to Gauntlet, Gauntlet Classic, Desert Raid, Hustler, JB700, Yosemite, Rumpo Custom, Scramjet and Swinger.
New for 4.0: Further improved off-road physics with special attention to Redwood Lights motocross track. Expanded DLC support up to and including After Hours (however, support for supercars is now limited). Gave North Yankton snow variant vehicles their own handling lines with improved off-road traction due to tire chains. Tightened up the Police Interceptor's suspension and handling. Reduced body roll for Comet. Various tweaks to other already supported cars.
New for 3.0: Damage deformation has been significantly overhauled, particularly in regard to DLC vehicles, which Rockstar strangely reduced deformation on compared to base vehicles. I had a breakthrough when I finally discovered a function separate from the deformation multiplier, which was limiting deformation. No other realistic damage mod I've seen uses that function. Also, with the help of ENB to disable damage limits to the passenger compartment, we can finally achieve a true semblance of realistic damage, even for cab-forward vehicles like the Surfer and Journey. The other big change is off-road handling. That aspect is still a work in progress, but the goal was to create a wider gulf between street vehicles and off-roaders. It always bothered me that a supercar or a family sedan could handle just as well offroad as a Sandking.
Supported: Sports, Coupe, Sedan, Compact, Classic, Muscle, Super, SUV, Offroad, Van, Service and Emergency. Only supported motorbikes are the ones that came with the base game.
DLC Support: All DLCs supported.

Drive V is the result of 5 years and over 2,000 hours of learning the physics system and testing in order to create a realistic and fun experience. Every vehicle is unique (even some variants that originally shared the same handling line) and has had careful attention to every single dynamic attribute. The most critical change I felt was needed was the Z-axis rotation, which is what made the vanilla cars feel so darty with every flick of the wheel. Now, heavy and old vehicles have a realistic delay between steering inputs and the car reacting, giving something like the Emperor the sloppy feel of a '70s Cadillac, and making semi trucks actually feel like you're driving a massive rig. You'll also notice vehicles like the Emperor have a very soft suspension and more body roll (like IV), while sporty cars have stiffer suspensions (unlike IV). For an example of the attention to detail: The taxi has less precise steering and poorer brakes than the police variant to reflect wear and tear because taxis are often driven hard with high mileage. The police variant gets a power boost and improved handling to reflect the police package upgrades, but still feels like a heavy Crown Victoria that's prone to oversteer, whereas the Interceptor drives like a more modern car.

New customized vehicles added to spawn points, including versions of Dominator FX to replicate 1979 Cobra, 1983 GT, SVO, 1987 ASC/McLaren and 1980 McLaren Mustang, as well as Dorado and Dominator FX highway patrol vehicles. Handling edits to Sentinel and Sentinel XS to better differentiate the two, handling improvements to V-STR and all large trucks/semis have improved turning radius. New engine sound for Cheburek. Artificial burnouts have been removed entirely.
Changes to optional traffic edits: I've reduced the amount of police in the countryside, as they were too common, and fixed an issue causing LSPD to spawn in the countryside. I've also added a small amount of decommissioned police cars to traffic in poor areas.
Issues fixed: Fagaloa horn issue, Vivanite off-roading issue, Sheriff SUV color reverted to b/w.
New for 7.0: Added support for Chop Shop DLC. New colors for both Impalers, FR36, Terminus, Dorado, Dominator GT, Aleutian, Asterope GZ, Cavalcade XL, Vivanite. Customized Impalers added to gangs and Gauntlet Interceptor added to police spawn locations. For the new Drift cars, I've removed the advanced flag that significantly lowers grip artificially. They can now drift without being so slippery. I've taken another shot at bike handling, starting with the PCJ-600. Realistic top speed conversion progress continues, along with the removal of auto-braking. I've also started converting engine power to a new calculation that takes into account power-to-weight ratio, as the game itself does not. Handling edits to Buffalo EVX, Jester Classic, Police Stanier (plus new engine sound), Penetrator, Penumbra, Gauntlet Hellfire, Tornado, Gauntlet Classic, Virgo, Surano, Thrax and Zorrusso. New colors for Radius, Omnis E-GT, Walton, Coquette Classic, Rhinehart, Seminole Frontier, Tahoma, Nebula, Virgo, Club, Blista Compact and Futo. Tulip M-100, Greenwood, Tahoma and Minivan added to gangs. Fixed installer issue affecting Special Races and Criminal Enterprises vehicles.
Changes to optional traffic edits: I have now created a unique vehicle group for rare cars, so that they can actually be set to spawn rarely. I've also added a small amount of police into regular traffic on the streets.
New for 6.9: Added support for Mercenaries DLC. New colors for MonstroCiti, Walton L35 and Bufflao EVX. About 80 percent of all cars have now been converted to realistic top speeds. New colors for Z Type, Riata, Tulip M-100, Comet Safari, Glendale and Pigalle. Adjustments made to Stanier, Cavalcade, Greenwood, Voltic, Schafter, Sentinel, Ruiner, Lurcher and Surge. Added "crushes other vehicles" flag to monster trucks. It's not a huge difference, but it increases damage when you run over another vehicle. Note: Rockstar disabled deformation on the Walton L35 somehow and I cannot find any way to enable it.
New for 6.8: Support for LS Drug Wars DLC. This DLC dropped as I was starting to convert the cars to realistic top speeds. Since I didn't want to keep everyone waiting until I finished converting all 700-something cars in this game, I'm releasing it with partial support for realistic top speeds. The supported vehicles right now are those from the new DLC and the original game vehicles in alphabetical order, ending with the Patriot. Increased power of engine upgrades for Boor, Tahoma and Tulip M-100. Added Calico rally car to customized spawn point. Increased offroad grip for Kuruma, Sultan and Calico. Lowered traction for Weevil. Side note: DriveV is compatible with CruelMaster's Online - Offline mod. I'd always wanted to try out the online missions, but never bothered because of the terrible vanilla handling.
New for 6.7: Support for Criminal Enterprises DLC added with new finishes for Kanjo SJ, Postlude, Greenwood, Ruiner ZZ-8 and Picador, copying real life counterparts' finish options. Traction control disabled on bikes, enabling wheelspin and oversteer. Recommended InversePower settings have been updated, and now oversteer is more easily controllable (this is a big improvement!). New customized cars that will spawn around the map. Large truck and semi turning radii have been tightened (thanks for the feedback!). Muscle car wheelspin somewhat reduced.
New for 6.5: Support for Contracts DLC added, tons of new finishes for various cars, increased the steering angle that Rockstar inexplicably limited on certain cars (does not affect handling, just visual). Traffic issues fixed (I also recommend setting VehicleVarietyMultiplier to 1.4 in settings.xml, just know that the more vehicle variety you have, the less color variety you get). I tried my best to make engine damage more realistic, but the damage system is almost nonsensical and very unpredictable. I've also made detachable parts break off easier, so you'll no longer have a totaled car with the bumpers still attached. All SUVs now have bumper collisions enabled, so offroading should be more realistic, in regard to approach and departure angles. Changed some engine sounds to be more appropriate. Enabled suspension lowering for the Stanier and made the default modkit engine upgrades more powerful and suspension height changes more significant. No WOV patch this time, sorry.
New for 6.0: Support for Tuners DLC added, and new finishes based on the actual colors offered on each car's real world counterpart (this is a teaser, it will be expanded to more DLCs in the future). Another teaser that's applied only to the Tuners DLC is modified engine upgrades: underpowered cars like the Futo and Remus get more significant boosts in power. World of Variety patch added (big thanks to LDNENG), just make sure you use an updated gameconfig because the current release of WOV includes an old one. Cars snapping/popping onto curbs finally fixed. LOTS of customized cars added to existing spawn points around map, and to gangs. These have been carefully considered, for example, classic movie cars spawn in the movie studio parking lot, rally cars and off-roaders can be found on dirt roads, etc. Patriot Limo now spawns with tinted windows. There are also some rare modified police cruisers and limos. TR3 (Yacht trailer from Father/Son mission) handling fixed and added to traffic. New color options for certain base game vehicles (Dominator, Rancher XL, Tornado, Buffalo, Patriot, Bullet, Primo & more). The vanilla color options had too many different shades of silver for each car, so now the traffic is a little more varied in color. Taxis are now all yellow and I've added a pearlescent blue tint to the police cruisers just for fun. Fixed some cars that shouldn't have had ABS. Support for Adventures in Finance and Felony DLC and next gen exclusive vehicles added (missed those before somehow). And LOTS of tweaks to already supported vehicles: Beater Dukes now has less grip (shitty tires), a softer suspension (shot springs/dampers), worn brake pads etc, Sultan Classic now reflects basic WRX specs, while Sultan Classic RS reflects STI Type R specs. Damage fixed on Brutus. Various tweaks to Washington, Dominator, Sentinel, Issi, Bison, Cognoscenti 55, Alpha, Sadler, Asterope, Impaler, Michelli, Tornado, Banshee, Hellion, Surano, Retinue 1&2, Mamba, Nightshade, GT500, Warrener, Dynasty, Coquette Blackfin, Zion Classic, Jester Classic, Gauntlet Classic, Ruiner, Infernus Classic, Dominator GTX, Elegy and more that I can't remember!
New for 5.0: Every DLC update now supported. Base game motorcycles now supported as well. The motorcycles in this game are a real challenge to extract realism from, but I did the best I could to get some level of oversteer and quell how darty they behave. This lead to some issues with the suspension and/or wheels scraping during heavy oversteer that I've mostly eliminated. I also worked on the Blazer quite a bit to make it more controllable and less prone to spinning out. I found the issue with the Stromberg's handling to be the submersible handling data, so I removed it. That means it no longer works as a submarine but now can actually handle normally. I did the same for the Toreador. Big changes to the Tampa Drift. Removed advanced flags from relevant DLCs. Various tweaks to Gauntlet, Gauntlet Classic, Desert Raid, Hustler, JB700, Yosemite, Rumpo Custom, Scramjet and Swinger.
New for 4.0: Further improved off-road physics with special attention to Redwood Lights motocross track. Expanded DLC support up to and including After Hours (however, support for supercars is now limited). Gave North Yankton snow variant vehicles their own handling lines with improved off-road traction due to tire chains. Tightened up the Police Interceptor's suspension and handling. Reduced body roll for Comet. Various tweaks to other already supported cars.
New for 3.0: Damage deformation has been significantly overhauled, particularly in regard to DLC vehicles, which Rockstar strangely reduced deformation on compared to base vehicles. I had a breakthrough when I finally discovered a function separate from the deformation multiplier, which was limiting deformation. No other realistic damage mod I've seen uses that function. Also, with the help of ENB to disable damage limits to the passenger compartment, we can finally achieve a true semblance of realistic damage, even for cab-forward vehicles like the Surfer and Journey. The other big change is off-road handling. That aspect is still a work in progress, but the goal was to create a wider gulf between street vehicles and off-roaders. It always bothered me that a supercar or a family sedan could handle just as well offroad as a Sandking.
Supported: Sports, Coupe, Sedan, Compact, Classic, Muscle, Super, SUV, Offroad, Van, Service and Emergency. Only supported motorbikes are the ones that came with the base game.
DLC Support: All DLCs supported.

Power levels and acceleration have been adjusted to match vehicles' real world counterparts, to the extent of calculating the net SAE horsepower ratings of old muscle cars that used a different rating standard (SAE gross) to determine a true realistic power output. Off-road traction has been overhauled for realism. Damage/deformation has been increased to a realistic level, similar to GTAIV. Downforce has been removed from everything except supercars that would actually produce downforce. Finally, the original game had many cars sitting at unusually low ride heights, so they have been raised to reflect the ride heights of their real world counterparts.
Features:
- Realistic top speeds
- No more snapping onto curbs
- Level of deformation similar to IV
- More body roll
- Downforce disabled from all but supercars
- Vehicle cabin deformation enabled (via ENB)
- Re-worked off-road surfaces

the cheval taipan literally cannot stop drifting. you cant even turn youll sldie like ice
bro this mod not working on all gta version can you make it working on old version ?
in what world does a sportscar do 0-100 in 2 seconds thanks for the uninstaller bro
@drakonex Because it's trying to add handling to DLC vehicles you don't have. You'll have to delete the folders/files added for the DLCs you don't have, and revert to the unedited popgroups.ymt and vehiclemodelsets.meta. It would be a ton of work to make multiple versions compatible with every previous game version, for very few people who would even want that.
@noidontthinkso74 I'll look into the APC. The Taipan is a car that's sending 1,800 hp only to the rear wheels, so it's going to be inherently dicey. I'll take another look at it though.
@PermissionToLand I will change the bike handling only. I will take screenshot of your permiss and put it in the pictures of mod.
@Taheem_PlayZ_GTA Cool! No need to screenshot, haha.
Game crashes when I try to load in, only mods installed are Drive V and the requirements.
Got it, i had to delete my mods folder and reinstall Drive V but everything works good now. Driving is so much fun, thank you for the mod! Do you think this would be compatible with RDE?
@stupidass Every time there's an update/DLC, the mods folder won't work until ScripthookV is updated as well. I don't believe it would be compatible with RDE. Many of the same files are edited.
@PermissionToLand I've tried installing the mod anyway to see how it goes. So far I think I have no issues but I'll make an update if anything goes wrong, in case somebody else also wants to play with both mods.
@Jetblock88 Hello, I'm the one who manage the FiveM port. The installation is like any resources, you just need to drop "DriveV" to your resources folder. If you don't know how to manage it then I suggest you to give a look at the FiveM
documentation
ScriptHook has been updated and the mod seems to work, but when I try to switch characters I get wasted and stuck in a black loading screen. It may be worth noting I only have Franklin right now
does anyone have enb working im not using any graphics mods actually i only have drive v and related mods in the description but enb isnt loading
I gotta ask. In terms of adding other mod cars into the game with this mod enabled, would you have to manually make its handling or is there something that already does it?
where do i install the mod? gamr folder or mod folder?
please, update for compatibility with Liberty City Preservation project :D
Love this mod so much I consider this like a simracing handling for some of the car. However much of the super car have too much downforce and too much accel. For example Nero has ridiculously high accell and grippy when in the real counterpart (which is chiron) yes has so much Horsepower but has lower accel due to it's weight nature. Maybe you can provide some optional that make super car has near resemblance to the real world counterpart ( yeah it's open world game so I didnt expect it to be perfectly accurate). Overall greatwork!
@Agtadude It's all manually edited.
