Party like it's the Prohibition era in this armored 1920s limousine. Perfect for a gangster and his moll on their first date or their last. Let the Valentine's Day massacres commence.
Legendary Motorsport description.

The Albany Roosevelt is a classic limousine featured in Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the Valentine's Day Massacre Special update. It was initially made available in GTA Online as a time-restricted vehicle from February 13 to March 3, 2014, and later re-released indefinitely

Design

Grand Theft Auto V

It is based on the custom 1928 Cadillac 341A Town Sedan owned by the infamous mobster Al Capone, along with elements from the Cadillac 341B. Its grille and headlights (including its metal mesh covers) are based from certain Bentley car models from the same period, particularly the 1927 Bentley Speed Six. The Newswire states that, similar to the real car, the Roosevelt is armored. The front grille sports the Albany logo and protects the radiator. There are four Drum headlights closely installed together in front of the grille. Two are large main beams with metal mesh covers, the other two are smaller fog lamps. In addition, two spotlights are mounted where mirrors would normally be. They are usable with the secondary headlight option. The hood has a chrome, cross-shaped trim and opens to reveal a carbureted V12 engine coupled to a 5-speed transmission.

Interior wise, it is unique, well detailed and appropriate for its era. It has two classically upholstered bench seats. The dashboard has multiple brass dials, but seems to mistakenly have a steering wheel that would match to a car from the 1950s and 1960s. There are two spare wheels located on either side of the vehicle that are preserved in leather cases that are held with a pair of straps. Behind those are four small containers situated under the doors. There is a black luggage bag located at the rear instead of a regular trunk, which cannot be opened.

Performance

Grand Theft Auto V

The Roosevelt drives smoothly. It is quite heavy, possibly owing to its thick armor. It is powered by a massive 6-double barrel downdraft carburetor, single-cam V12 engine, which is capable of powering the vehicle up to relatively high speeds, although acceleration isn't as good. With its archaic suspension, spinning out is very likely at higher speeds, and oversteer may become an issue. Lowering the suspension may help prevent this since it will reduce body roll. It is quite durable and proves capable when off-roading. Its acceleration may suffer with more passengers.

Much like the Granger (and its law enforcement variants), players can ride on the sides of the vehicle, standing on the running boards. While doing so, they are able to use assault rifles and MGs, which are not normally available for use in any vehicle other than helicopters. However, as like any vehicle of this type, passengers hanging from the outside will fall off from harder collisions, scraping against surfaces or impacts from large heights.

Locations

Grand Theft Auto V

Original version
  • Available in all three characters' garages.
Enhanced version
  • Has a chance of spawning in a parking lot in Backlot City. Look right when entering from the south-east corner gate, or south after entering from the center east gate. For a better chance, go into the area of the studio where Franklin steals the JB 700 for Devin Weston first, then go to where you would find the car.
  • Rarely spawns in the garage at the 2848 Milton Road, Vinewood Hills. It will have a random paintjob, wheels, suspension upgrade, and sometimes even the trunk at the back is missing.

Trivia

  • In terms of real life inspiration, the Roosevelt and its variants are the second oldest cars in the HD Universe (behind the Tractor), and are followed by the HotknifeZ-Type, Rat Loader and Duneloader.
  • The vehicle is named after Theodore Roosevelt and Franklin D. Roosevelt, the 26th and 32nd Presidents of the United States respectively. Franklin Roosevelt, according to a widely believed but disproved legend, made use of the armored limousine confiscated from Al Capone for protection after the attack on Pearl Harbor, before he could have his own armored vehicle. A vehicle named Roosevelt, named after Theodore Roosevelt and manufactured by the Marmon Motor Car Company between 1929 and 1930, also bears a resemblance to the in-game Roosevelt.
    • The fact that the car spawns in green in single player garages is also a reference toAl Capone's personal car, which was also painted green to match Chicago police cars of the period.
    • It is one of four cars to be named after a US President, the others being the Jefferson, Washington and Monroe.
  • The Roosevelt and its Valor variant both have a unique stock horn, which is an old Klaxon.
  • Exhaust fumes are expelled at the left side of the back of the car even though the entire exhaust system is missing. This is likely an oversight.
  • The stock wheels are painted the same color as the car's primary color and have large drum brakes, which look black from the outside. Installing custom wheels will replace them with disc brakes.
  • The Roosevelt has no default radio station. The radio will be switched off whenever the player enters the vehicle.
  • The Roosevelt features the newer Albany logo. This is possibly a developer oversight as the Alpha, a much newer Albany vehicle, features the old logo.
  • Its name in the files is "btype", suggesting that it was meant to be a HD Universe rendition of GTA 2's B-Type.
  • Despite the Roosevelt being made unavailable for purchase after March 3, 2014, it is still possible to obtain it using hacking or certain glitches.
    • However, in the Be My Valentine update, the Roosevelt returned to last-gen consoles and was made permanently available for purchase.
