Cutaway shuttle bus

Name not confirmed

What the community calls it

Widely identified as the Rental Shuttle Bus.

GTABase files this vehicle as the Rental Shuttle Bus, with Brute as the manufacturer and a 1996-2002 Chevrolet Express as the donor. The lettering on the upper body of our bus begins The Gra and runs off the edge of the crop, so we have the start of an operator's name and no vehicle name at all.

What supports it

  • Cutaway layout, a van cab and nose with a squared passenger body grafted on behind: the body type their donor describes.
  • The lettering across the upper body says it runs for somebody, which is what a rental shuttle does.

What does not

  • The only lettering on the body stops at The Gra where the photograph ends, and we are not completing it. Whether it names an operator is not in the frame either.
  • No badge is legible on the nose, the flank or the door.
  • Rental Shuttle Bus reads as a description rather than a nameplate, and we cannot test it against anything in our own material.
  • A second source works from this same official screenshot and reaches a different answer: it files the vehicle as an unnamed cutaway minibus built on a Burrito, not as a rental shuttle bus. Two readings of one picture, not two votes for one name.
  • That same source says there is a badge to read: Brute Burrito 4000, behind the passenger mirror, in this very screenshot. We have not measured that spot. If it reads, the name on this page will be one we read ourselves, and it will not be theirs or GTABase's.

Read on GTABase, September 17, 2026. They name the vehicle but no picture, so they confirm that it exists and not that it is the one in our frame. The identification is theirs, not ours.

We have not confirmed this. Our confidence in the identification: low.

When the real name is confirmed, this page moves to that name and this address keeps working.

The silver cutaway shuttle bus at the roadside: The Gra in dark serif on the upper body running off the edge of the photograph, a band of coloured triangles on the cab side and beside the door, a chrome mirror with stacked heads, a red marker at the top rear corner, three people at the door and a fourth at the left edge

Press pack · rear three quarter · 1113 × 1036 px © Rockstar Games The whole frame at 3840 × 2160, scaled down to fit — never enlarged. The box marks the crop exactly as we measured it, and that crop is the detail alongside, at its true size.

A cutaway shuttle bus at the roadside with three people at its door: silver, thoroughly used, a band of coloured triangles on the front of the body, and lettered The Gra before the photograph runs out.

The vehicle is a cutaway: a van cab and nose at the front with a squared passenger body built on behind it, a long run of side windows with a small upper pane in each, and a red marker light at the top rear corner. The paint is silver and thoroughly used, streaked and chalked along the panels, and a dark drip rail runs straight along the edge of the roof.

Lettering runs across the upper body in a dark serif and reads The Gra before the photograph ends. We are not going to complete it. Lower down, on the side of the cab and on the panel between the cab and the entry door, runs a band of coloured triangles in teal, lime, orange, red and yellow, dulled under the dirt. Whether that is the bus’s livery or something added later, the frame does not say.

The fittings are what place it. A chrome mirror arm with stacked heads stands off the cab door, the wide entry door is glazed in two tall panels, and the front corner carries a chrome-edged lamp cluster with a clear lamp and two orange-red lenses. Three people stand at the door: a woman in a straw hat and purple top, a man in a red shirt, khaki shorts and a tan cap, and a third in a blue floral shirt. A fourth stands at the left edge. Whether any of them is getting on, the still does not show.

The same body type turns up on the highway at 0:02.67 of Trailer 1: a white cutaway with a van cab, a boxy passenger body and a row of windows, its headlights lit in the red evening light. Nothing on it can be read at that size, so this page does not claim it is the same bus.

How to recognise it

  • Cutaway layout: van cab and nose with a squared passenger body behind
  • Long run of side windows, each with a small upper pane
  • The Gra in dark serif on the upper body, running off the right-hand edge of the photograph
  • A band of teal, lime, orange, red and yellow triangles on the cab side and the panel ahead of the door
  • Chrome mirror arm with stacked heads; entry door glazed in two tall panels
  • Red marker light at the top rear corner of the passenger body; chrome-edged front lamp cluster with a clear lamp and orange-red lenses

The frame it comes from

The frame is a still from the official Press pack, which carries no timecode. It is 3840 by 2160, and the vehicle occupies 1113 by 1036 of it. Also in it: Chip's Body Shop, the Leonida Keys, a blue mobility scooter, and a red beach cruiser bicycle.

These figures come from the dataset, not from the prose above. We measure everything and claim what counts. How we work

What we still do not know

  • The full lettering. The photograph stops at The Gra; what follows, and whether it names an operator, is not in the frame.
  • Who runs it, and whether it serves a route
  • Whether the triangles are the livery or were added later
  • Everything measured: top speed, capacity, price, where it spawns

Measured in the same frames as the images above, but without a page of their own. Same rule as everywhere else: what the crop carries, with the source and the timecode. The ones whose frame no page shows are collected in the frame.
