Locations[]
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
- Can be selected as a respawn vehicle in a Capture (GTA Online).[ref?ref?This fact is likely to be disputed and needs a source for confirmation.]
Prominent Appearances in Gameplay[]
Grand Theft Auto V[]
- Appears outside the Bobcat Security Depot in Ludendorff during The Prologue, but it cannot be driven by the player. This variant may also spawn on the roads when the player is controlling the Rancher XL.
- Appears in Ludendorff during the mission Bury the Hatchet when arriving in North Yankton as Michael De Santa. Although the player can obtain the vehicle by shooting the driver, the game will warn the player to return to the Asea provided, and will fail the mission if the player drives too far away from the Asea.
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
Adversary Modes[]
- Numerous snowed vehicles appear on the streets in the Entourage (Festive Remix), but are locked and therefore uncontrollable.
Oversights[]
- The car's dashboard features Declasse badging on the steering wheel despite it being manufactured by Albany.
Radio Stations[]
The snowy Emperor has the following defaultdefaultstations dictated by the vehicle, not set by any previous NPC occupant's preference radio station(s):
- In Grand Theft Auto V, the default radio stations are grouped by genre. The snowy Emperor uses the "Rap" group which can play:
- West Coast Classics
- Radio Los Santos
- The Lab
- Blonded Los Santos 97.8 FM (May not play due to a three station limit within the group)
- IFruit Radio (May not play due to a three station limit within the group)
However, during the only appearances it makes, the player is unable to listen to or change the radio.
