The Sunrise is a vehicle featured in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.
Design
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
The Sunrise looks slightly similar to a eighth generation Pontiac Bonneville with a custom bodykit and with rear fascia resembling 1996-2000 Japanese and Southeast Asian Toyota Corolla.
Despite the fact that the Sunrise has quite sporty appearance as it features a custom bodykit, it cannot be modified in Wheel Arch Angels, but in TransFender instead.
Performance
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
While speed is extraordinary, acceleration is slightly disappointing, likely due to the front-wheel drive train being poorly matched with the presumably throaty V6 engine. However, handling is taut, and the brakes are strong. The Sunrise reaches very high speeds.
The drawback with this car, however, is that due to its lower-than-average curb weight, the very high speeds it is capable of reaching can send it out of control even at the slightest perturbation. It is not really a low suspension, but its awkwardly located wheel wells (a bit too high) that prevent this car from being used on uneven roads, hills, and trails.
Still, it is one of only two sedans that can arguably be used for both street racing and police evasion, the other being the Sultan.
