RUNE (Russian: РУНА) is a Soviet vehicle manufacturer appearing in Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the Southern San Andreas Super Sport Series update.
Description[]
With the introduction of the Kosatka, it was pinpointed that RUNE has been active since at least the late Soviet period (pre-1991).
Influence[]
RUNE appears to be primarily based on LADA, as its capitalized name, logo, and first released vehicle, the Cheburek, draw heavy influence from those of LADA. The RUNE logo resembles the carved hull of a Norse longship; this is a direct reference to LADA's logo.
The company also seems to take secondary influence from the Ukrainian all-terrain vehicle manufacturer Sherp, as the design of the Zhaba closely resembles that of various SHERP UTVs.
The name of the company, RUNE, could allude to a rune, a character from the runic alphabets used by Germanic peoples to write their languages from the 2nd to 8th centuries AD, which further ties into the company's Norse-inspired logo.
