Xero is a petroleum company featured in Grand Theft Auto IV and Grand Theft Auto V.
GTA IV
Unlike its competitors, such as RON, Globe Oil, and Terroil, Xero does not appear to have set up any gas stations in Liberty City, although it does operate a refinery at the southwestern corner of the Acter Industrial Park in Alderney. Xero storage tanks and faded advertising of the brand can also be found in selected parts of Liberty City, and Xero sponsorship vinyls are visible on certain Bati Customs designs.
GTA V
Many Xero filling stations and their adjacent convenience stores can be found in San Andreas. ATM's and Jerry Cans are usually found at these gas stations. The company also owns a industrial building on Greenwich Parkway in the Los Santos International Airport, as well as a refinery in Blaine County.
It is one of the sponsors on the livery of the Jester and Massacro racecars.
In the enhanced edition of GTA V, Xero has its own blimp.

Influence
It could be based on Exxon, as both have an "x" in their names and share the same colors in their logos. Its name and logo design also appear to be similar to that of Xoomer in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. It might also be based on Chevron, given the fact that much like Chevron, it has refineries on the East Coast, yet no presence in gas retailing there.
