Design
Grand Theft Auto Online
The vehicle's general shape and front and rear fascia is primarily based on the Lexus LF LC Vision Gran Turismo. The front fascia is based on the Gazoo Racing Lexus LFA, while the bodywork is based on a modified Toyota 86, namely the R&D Sport Subaru BRZ GT300 with minor styling cues from the Toyota FT-1 Concept. The spoiler, B-pillar and roof shape is similar to the Nissan GT-R Nismo GT3, taking the design of a touring car with a livery and several racing modifications.
The design of the car is very unique, featuring a carbon-fiber splitter spanning the whole width of the car and a large intake on the center, along with the manufacturer emblem above it. On the upper area, there is a thin grille on the center and curved headlights, composed of four square units and LED-like strips, placed in black housings. The hood features two small vents near the windshield.
The sides denote its bulky profile, featuring vertical intakes and air-flow exits on both sets of fenders, along with a single side-exit exhaust on the driver side, indicated by the heat shield around it. Around the greenhouse area, the pillars are finished in black and the rear quarter sections are covered by what appears to be fuel inlets, while a black, bolted-on plate covers the rear of the cabin.
The rear section features a large carbon-fiber spoiler placed on the rear of the vehicle, followed by the tail lights, the license plate and a lower exit vent. A 5-element diffuser can be seen at the bottom, with a single brake light on the center. Its underside is fully carbon-plated, which appears to be a single piece that includes both the front splitter and the rear diffuser.
The interior of the car makes use of steel flooring and sport seats with race seatbelts. The ETR1 includes various switches and buttons around the center console, and features a knob reading F/R, likely indicating a rear/four wheel drive locking diff. The steering wheel itself includes dual RPM indicators on the upper section, and a large extended gear-shifter is centralized on the console between the seats. Also, a radio is seen located under the dashboard, on the passenger side.
The primary color is applied on the bodywork, the interior stitching and the detail on the steering wheel that surrounds the badge, while the secondary color is applied on the inner side of the central intake, the inner sides of the bulky fenders, rear-view mirrors, roll cage, brake calipers and the center of the stock wheels. Like the RE-7B, the ETR1 features racing slicks with Atomic markings for the stock wheels, with the rims being similar to the "Endo v.1" rims available in Los Santos Customs, albeit using a permanent grey color and featuring a protruding center.
Both liveries have the same sponsors and only differs by the primary one (Kronos or Dense):

Performance
Grand Theft Auto Online
The car performs well for its type, surpassing the performance of many other cars in the Supers class. The vehicle has excellent traction thanks to its large spoiler, giving it large amounts of downforce when accelerating, as well as allowing it to retain speed in corners. The vehicle has a lower-revving engine compared to other endurance cars, but still supplies a large amount of power for its top speed. The engine sounds relatively powerful but certainly is not as high pitched as the RE-7B or Tyrus.
The engine model appears to be similar to that of the Sultan RS', sharing the same valve covers. The model has 3 pipes on each manifold, making it a V6 engine. It bears oil breathers and a fuel injection port to the left of the model, as well as cold-air pipes from the Rapid GT. Its engine sound is a higher-pitched variation of the one used in the Coquette, the Jester and the Jester (Racecar).

Trivia
Grand Theft Auto Online
- The "Dense" livery for the ETR1 is a reference to the Denso SARD Supra GT livery.
- The "Kronos" livery is based on the Petronas Motorsport livery for the SuperGT versions of the Lexus RC F and the Lexus SC400.
- If damaged, the ETR1's stock spoiler may detatch from the car. However, a "No Spoiler" option can be applied in Los Santos Customs by removing the spoiler.
- This has since been fixed in the GTA Online: Bikers patch.
- In Content Creator, however, the ETR1 may spawn with or without the stock spoiler, suggesting it is considered an extra.
- According to the internal name, it was originally named "SHEAVA", but was soon changed to ETR1 prior to its release.
- The file name may be derived from Shiva from its pronunciation, likely named after the Hindu god of the same name.
- The ETR1 is the first vehicle to be based on a Vision Gran Turismo vehicle; another Vision Gran Turismo-based vehicle is the Nero Custom.
- The default radio stations for the ETR1 are Radio Los Santos, West Coast Classics, and The Lab.
