A Car Bomb is an explosive device placed in a car to be detonated.
3D Universe
Car bombs are purchased through bomb shops.
Types
There are three types of car bombs.
Engine Ignition Detonation
The player has to arm the bomb while in a car. When anyone enters the car, the bomb will immediately detonate.
Eight-Second Time Delay Detonation
The player has to arm the bomb and wait eight seconds for the bomb to detonate.
Remote Detonation
The bomb is remotely detonated using a Detonator. In Grand Theft Auto Advance, it is used as a weapon and the player needs to place the car bomb in the car himself.

When a car bomb explodes in the 3D Universe games, the wanted level is not awarded or revived.
GTA IV
A planted car bomb in GTA IV
Car bombs in Grand Theft Auto IV are first encountered in the Gerald McReary mission Actions Speak Louder than Words where they are used to destroy a fuel depot. Car bombs in GTA IV can later be obtained through Patrick McReary as a friend special option, which will unlock the "Dial B for Bomb" achievement/trophy. They will be delivered to the player's general location and the player can place the bombs beneath cars, buses and light vans only. The bombs are remote detonated through calling Packie on the cell phone and selecting Detonate.
Sticky Bombs from The Ballad of Gay Tony are a very good alternative as they can stick to cars and are detonated with the down button on the D-Pad (though they will auto-activate if unactivated for a minute).
GTA Chinatown Wars
Fitting a car bomb in the iPad rendition of GTA Chinatown Wars.
Not to be confused with Proximity Mines, which also affect vehicles with explosions, car bombs, which are introduced in the mission Operation Northwood, can be fitted at a garage in North Holland. Upon entry, the touch screen will show a picture of the car's engine, which you then must place the bomb onto and wire it up. The bombs cost $500, as in previous iterations. Once placed in the car, the detonator symbol will appear in the PDA. This can be activated at any time, both in-vehicle and out, and will instantly destroy the car and any others or pedestrians surrounding it.
GTA Online
In GTA Online, the player can go to Los Santos Customs and buy one out of two types of car bombs: One explodes when the vehicle engine is turned on and the other can be detonated by using the player's Cell Phone.
