Tropos Rallye

"Stunningly beautiful and astonishingly violent, the Lampadati Tropos may have a European name, but it's got an American heart. This is the car that defined a whole generation of rally design, so if your favorite pastime is calling other people's choices derivative then this is by far and away your best bet."

- Southern San Andreas Super Autos description.

The Lampadati Tropos Rallye is a two-door rally sports car featured in Grand Theft Auto Online, as part of the Cunning Stunts update.

Grand Theft Auto Online
The Tropos Rallye is primarily based on the rally edition, seen particularly in the overall comapct body shape, wide rear body, pop-up lighting area, additional rally lamps, and indicator lights positioned on/beside the grille. The rear lights are similar to the Stratos', albeit twin, taking some influence from wide-body Chevrolet Corvette C3's. The front fascia of the vehicle takes inspiration from the Ferrari 288 GTO, seen particularly in the indicator lights and the front underside spoiler. Said car also has influence in the rear lights.

The front arches of the car feature small ducts directly above the pop-up headlights for extra decoration. Under the front bumper and light unit is a spoiler with additional livery logos. The front clam of the vehicle opens to reveal a spare wheel tied with with green straps, in a similar manner to the Trophy Truck. In place of the rear window is a set of rear louvers with the applied livery. The rear clam of the vehicle also opens, to reveal the vehicle's carburetored V6 engine laid transversely. The rear wheels are much wider than those at the front for traction and drag purposes. On the interior, there is an RPM indicator placed in the gauge cluster, close to the steering column.

The Tropos Rallye is the first vehicle to feature pop-up headlights in GTA V. It is also the first vehicle to feature pop-up headlights since the Hakumai in GTA IV.

Grand Theft Auto Online
The vehicle has good performance for its design, although most other vehicles in its class are still superior to it. Its off-roading capabilities are impressive thanks to the rear engine layout, which gives it less body weight and better power to weight ratio. The vehicle also sports a compact design giving it minimal weight. The Tropos is one of the first vehicles in the game to sport a modeled V6 engine, in which is carburettored/throttle bodied, and laid transversely. Twin exit, twin exhausts are found coming out of the rear body. Exhaust silencers can be seen underneath the vehicle, behind the rear wheels. The Tropos has a relatively small steering radius when compared to other similar cars, meaning it has a tendency to understeer at speed.

Trivia

 * The name of the Tropos is a play on words on the Stratos, as the troposphere is the lowest layer on Earth's atmosphere, while the stratosphere is the second lowest.
 * This car is the third car in the GTA Series to feature eyelid/pop-up headlights, the others being the ZR-350 and the Hakumai as well as the fourth car to feature hidden headlights, the other three including the aforementioned cars and the Dukes.
 * The "Air Herler" livery is loosely based on the Martini Racing livery on the Lancia Stratos.
 * The "Stronzo" livery's color scheme is loosely based on the Alitalia livery on the aforementioned vehicle.
 * The Rockstar Games Social Club image shows the car fitted with rally lamps, despite these being an additional modification.
