The Big Bug, as depicted in Grand Theft Auto 2.

The Big Bug is a vehicle in Grand Theft Auto 2 and possibly GTA V.

2D Era Description

In Grand Theft Auto 2, It can be found in all three districts of Anywhere City. It gives a machine gun in the Downtown District and an armor icon in both Residential and Industrial Districts when crushed. Its an enlarged version of the Bug, akin to a Baja Bug.

HD Era

Design

The buggy features a short wheelbase body, based on a 1949 VW Type 1, which has been modified to cope with off-road use. The rear of the car's body features a large removed area to house a rear-mounted engine. The rear windscreen is ovular and vertically split into two equal halves. Although many elements have been removed from the rear, the engine is sat on a tube frame with a chrome finish. This tube frame has a long antenna mounted towards the right, at the top. To make the vehicle road legal, it features two circular tail lamps and a central area to mount a license plate.

Performance

The Bug features a rear-mounted, air-cooled engine powering the rear wheels in an RR drivetrain layout. It features two exhaust tips, which are pointed downwards beneath car's floor level. It uses very large, high profile sand dune tyres.
