The Lampadati Tropos Rallye is a two-door rally car featured in Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the Cunning Stunts update.
Design
Grand Theft Auto Online
The Tropos Rallye is primarily based on the Lancia Stratos rally edition, seen particularly in the overall compact body shape, wide rear body, pop-up lighting area, additional rally lamps, and indicator lights positioned on/beside the grille. The rear lights are similar to the Stratos', albeit twin, taking some influence from wide-body Chevrolet Corvette C3's. The front fascia of the vehicle takes inspiration from the Ferrari 288 GTO, seen particularly in the indicator lights and the front underside spoiler. Said car also has influence in the rear lights.
The front arches of the car feature small ducts directly above the pop-up headlights for extra decoration. Under the front bumper and light unit is a spoiler with additional livery logos. The front clam of the vehicle opens to reveal a spare wheel tied with with green straps, in a similar manner to the Trophy Truck. In place of the rear window is a set of rear louvers with the applied livery. The rear clam of the vehicle also opens, to reveal the vehicle's carburetored V6 engine laid transversely. Like many high-performance cars, the rear wheels are much wider than those at the front for traction and drag purposes. The underside appears to be rather generic, but sports unique accessories for the suspension systems, including single wishbone suspension for the front axle and a multi-link suspension system for the rear axle, with each of the rear axle shafts having parallel trailing arms. From the engine bay, two exhaust tubes comes from the upper side and both ends in two separated exhaust silencer with twin exhaust tail pipes each. On the interior, there is an RPM indicator placed in the gauge cluster, close to the steering column.
The Tropos Rallye is the first vehicle to feature pop-up headlights in GTA V. It is also the first vehicle to feature pop-up headlights since the Hakumai in GTA IV.
Both liveries have the same sponsors, although the Stronzo livery adds the corresponding sponsor on it:
- Lampadati
- Power Metal
- Stronzo (Stronzo livery only)
- Whiz
- Xero

Performance
Grand Theft Auto Online
The vehicle has good performance for its design, although most other vehicles in its class are still superior to it. Its off-roading capabilities are impressive thanks to the mid-rear engine layout, which gives it less body weight and better power to weight ratio. The vehicle also sports a compact design giving it minimal weight.
The Tropos is one of the first vehicles in the game to sport a modeled V6 engine, in which is carburettored/throttle bodied, and laid transversely. Twin exit, twin exhausts are found coming out of the rear body. Exhaust silencers can be seen underneath the vehicle, behind the rear wheels. The Tropos has a relatively small steering radius when compared to other similar cars, meaning it has a tendency to understeer at speed. The high revving engine gives a large amount of power and extra fuel causes large backfires during shifting and deceleration.
Among the rally cars featured in the game, the Tropos Rallye is one of the best balanced when taken away from tarmac. The relatively light weight, combined with its low centre of mass, short wheelbase give it very good cornering ability and stability on loose gravel and dirt surfaces.

Trivia
- The name of the Tropos is a play on words on the Stratos, as the troposphere is the lowest layer on Earth's atmosphere, while the stratosphere is the second lowest.
- This is also true from its GTA 2 equivalent, the Meteor, which is also based on the Stratos.
- This car is the third car in the GTA Series to feature eyelid/pop-up headlights, the others being the ZR-350 and the Hakumai as well as the fourth car to feature hidden headlights, the other four including the aforementioned cars, the Dukes, and the Ruiner 2000.
- The "Air Herler" livery is loosely based on the Alitalia livery on the Lancia Stratos but with the british flag colors instead of the green and red pattern of the original one. It also has some kind of resemblance to the VK Stratos livery.
- The "Stronzo" livery's color scheme is loosely based on the Alitalia livery on the aforementioned vehicle.
- The default radio stations for the Tropos Rallye are The Lowdown 91.1 and Space 103.2.
