- "The Coil Cyclone is here to prove one thing: the days of the internal combustion engine are over. Sure, it was fun while it lasted. Just like your psychotic, knife-wielding ex was phenomenal in bed. But that fossil-fuelled comfort zone is about to be nothing more than a distant speck in your rear-view mirror as you surrender to this harbinger of the electric age. True power is here. Drive the lightning."
- ―Legendary Motorsport description.
The Coil Cyclone is a two-door electric supercar featured in Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the Smuggler's Run update, released on November 14th, 2017, during the Cyclone Week event.

- "In the past, you'd have been forgiven for thinking that electricity was for the weak and environmentally conscious. Those days are over, and the Coil Cyclone is here to change your mind faster than a 1,000 volt blast straight to the jewels. Fly off the line faster than a toupee in a hurricane and usher in the electric age with the Coil Cyclone - now available for purchase at Legendary Motorsport."
- ―Rockstar Newswire description.
The dashboard is shared with the one used on the Specter and Specter Custom. Despite its electric nature, the dashboard still features an RPM-based tachometer, a clear oversight from the shared interior.

Performance
Grand Theft Auto Online
The vehicle accelerates like no other vehicle in the game, beating the Voltic and becoming the fastest accelerating electric vehicle in the game, while being a close rival to the rocket-powered Rocket Voltic. However, the traction is by far the worst in the Supers class, as the vehicle lacks in cornering speeds and spins out quite easily, despite its all wheel drive system. The all-wheel-drive system juxtaposed with the extreme amounts of torque create both low-speed oversteer and high speed understeer. The extreme acceleration must be managed, else the player will careen into obstacles ahead.
The Cyclone is powered by a large battery on the back, and like other fully-electric vehicles like the Voltic, it has a CVT transmission and little to no noise coming from the car (only heard in quiet areas and with the radio off).

Trivia
General
- The name Cyclone is derived from a natural disaster, usually tornadoes, hurricanes and tropical storms.
- This is further supported by the promotional poster, where it features a stormy background.
- The default radio stations of the Cyclone are FlyLo FM, Los Santos Underground Radio and Soulwax FM.
Grand Theft Auto: Online
- Despite being fully electric, the Cyclone features a rear exhaust.
- The false exhaust may have been inspired by the Koenigsegg Regera's rear motor and battery cooler.
- The vehicle was incorrectly listed as a Sports vehicle on the Rockstar Games Social Club, while in-game, the vehicle appears in the Super vehicle class.
- It was later corrected to match with the in-game class.
