The Progen PR4 is an open wheel car featured in Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the continuation of the The Diamond Casino Heist update, released on February 20, 2020, during the Blista Kanjo Week event.
Design
Grand Theft Auto Online
The PR4 is a Formula One car modelled after the 1989 McLaren MP4/5, evidenced by the V10 powerplant and solo wing/spoiler, although the sharper nose, flatter air intake and narrower rear endplate leans toward the 1991 McLaren MP4/6. Some modifications available at Los Santos Customs are apparently borrowed from the MP4/5B. The engine is supplied by Dinka Racing Division, reflecting the McLaren's Honda power.
The PR4 features a narrow, low-profile design, having the distinctive long nose with the large dual wings on front, an open driver compartment, small side intakes and the large rear wing with the single tail light. The entire underside of the vehicle is carbon plated. Also, similar to vehicles like the Drift Tampa or the Hotring Sabre, the PR4 features the use of racing slicks for the wheels, along with its own custom "Race" wheels. The vehicle is painted with the primary colour, while the surfaces of the wings are painted in a secondary colour.
Its interior uses the race-type digital display screen used on various vehicles, along with numerous buttons found around the panel and the steering wheel.

Performance
Grand Theft Auto Online
- Vehicle
The PR4 is a surprisingly well rounded vehicle, having fair handling and excellent braking. At high speeds, the vehicle will get a slight understeer when attempting tight turns but this is mitigated through simple use of brakes. The downside of using this vehicle, however, is that the driver will be unable to use their weapons at all, risking the player getting attacked and not being able to return fire.
Unlike other vehicles, the PR4 damage absorption will not result in deformation but instead the body kit falling off, exposing the engine and base frame. This can result in more understeer as the car loses more traction because of the missing parts, especially if the spoiler is gone.
Due to the immense downforce, the PR4 can also drive on walls, even ones that are slightly curved outwards, and even ceilings if the player angles the car correctly, especially in the Los Santos Storm Drain, where there are inclines.
The PR4 is powered by a V10 engine fitted with what appears to be a large intake with double-barrel carburetors/throttle bodies. Its sound is a higher-pitched variation of the engine sound from the Tyrus. Installing the "Turbo Exhaust" modification adds a turbocharger on either side of the engine.
Both the PR4 and the R88 are known to have different downforce values in Freemode. Depending of the front and rear wing setups, one is able to provide either lower downforce to increase speed or higher downforce to provide better cornering abilities. In Open Wheel Races, however, wing setups do not have effect on the vehicle, as it resets downforce values.
- Features
In addition to its already impressive speed, the PR4 also has KERS, allowing the driver to increase their speed even further by activating the boost, in a similar manner to the Lectro and the Vindicator. The boost lasts for four seconds and it takes about six seconds to recharge to its full capacity, but it does not have to be full to activate it. In order for the boost to recharge, the vehicle needs to begin slowing down to let it charge. Stopping the vehicle, accelerating, or reversing will prevent the boost from recharging.
