- "Originally designed as a road-legal confidence booster for the wealthy but poorly endowed, the Tyrus found its true calling elsewhere. It didn't just beat its race-tuned rivals - it serially teabagged them across every endurance grand prix in competitive motorsport. Which is particularly good for you, because you can pretend this isn't all about your tiny, tiny package."
- ―Legendary Motorsport description.
The Progen Tyrus is a two-door endurance racing car featured in Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the Cunning Stunts update.

Design
Grand Theft Auto Online
The car takes clear influence from the McLaren F1 GTR Longtail, the Saleen S7R and the Mosler MT900R, seen heavily in the general shape and front and back fascia. The frontal fascia takes minor influence from the Quaife R4 GT1, whereas the side/frontal vents, headlights and front overhang take inspiration from the aforementioned McLaren.
The Tyrus features a distinctively long body and a very aerodynamic design, where the front end has a plastic extender/splitter at the bottom. A set of mesh intakes can be seen on the vertical section of the car, the central one having a curvature on the upper side and a racing hook centered of it, followed by two split curved intakes on the edges and two canards on the front quarters of the vehicle. On the upper area, the car features a set of dual circular lamps with small turn signals, which are located in black housings and behind glass casings, together with bolted-on plastic trims around it. The bonnet is relatively aerodynamic, sporting a central intake, two concave sections, bolt details and safety pins.
On the sides, the front fenders feature bolted-on extensions and flat rear fenders with bolt details on the upper side, along with plastic skirts slightly extending out of the body. Two concave formations can be seen through the doors, with the upper one starting from the front vents and leading to the rear ones intended to direct airflow to the engine bay, and the lower one leading to a lower vent intended to direct airflow to the rear brakes. The cabin area makes use of plastic trim with a Pißwasser banner on the windscreen, bolted-on side windows, and rear-quarter panels with circular vents. The roof features a long scoop and an aerial, while the area behind the cabin consists of an openable engine compartment with horizontal slatted vents on the sides and small vertical vents in the centre. The vehicle features butterfly doors, as seen with the roof sections being carried with the door, although the hinge itself appears to be absent.
The rear section of the car features another scoop and a vented panel intended to direct airflow to the gearbox/diff area, while the rear end features a small lip, black panels holding the circular tail lamps, a central vented area with "PROGEN" lettering and small strips for the third brake light and the reverse lights. The lower area is occupied by two rear vents with a horizontal separation and a central meshed vent, with open sections for the twin exit, twin exhausts. A license plate can be seen over the central vented section. The entire underside of the vehicle is carbon plated, with an open section for the gearbox/diff and elevated sections on the rear end, acting as the diffuser. A spoiler can be seen installed by default.
The interior of the car makes use of steel footrests, a carbon-fibre floor, carbon-fibre sport seats with race seatbelts, along with a coloured roll cage. The Tyrus includes various switches and buttons on the center console and passenger side and features a knob reading F/R, likely indicating a rear/four wheel drive locking diff. An RPM indicator can be seen in the gauge cluster below the digital dial, and a large extended gear-shifter is centralized on the console between the seats. Also, a radio is seen located under the dashboard, on the passenger side.
The vehicle only has a primary colour applied to the bodywork, roll cage, and interior stitching. Although not accessible, a trim colour is applied on the cage paddings and a dial colour for the digital display, which are set to black in purchased examples. Similar to vehicles like the ETR1 and RE-7B, the Tyrus features Atomic racing slicks for the stock wheels, with the rims having six spokes and a hexagonal centre. The rims also have the corresponding wheel colour, although it is only used in examples generated in the Content Creator.

Performance
Grand Theft Auto Online
The car performs extremely well. The car has extreme grip but can still understeer around corners occasionally. It has a high top speed thanks to its extreme power.
Under the engine cover is a V8 engine reused from cars like the Cheetah and the Reaper, with what appears to be two cold-air intake systems coming from the roof scoop (ram-air intake) of the car in a similar manner to cars like the Rapid GT, powering the rear wheels through a 6-speed gearbox. The engine sound is similar to the X80 Proto, being a very high revving engine, and the car tends to backfire when decelerating or revving quickly. When powered down, the engine shares the same sound effect used on the Shotaro and X80 Proto.
