Benson

The Benson is a robust commercial truck featured in Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online. Manufactured by MTL in the game, it is designed for heavy-duty tasks, taking inspiration from real-world box trucks and freight Vehicles used for industrial and logistical purposes.

Vehicle Overview

Design

The Benson is a robust and practical commercial vehicle, featuring a boxy design optimized for cargo transport. Its utilitarian appearance is marked by a large front grille, basic headlights, and a spacious cargo area. The truck’s hardy build and straightforward lines make it a staple for industrial and delivery tasks around Los Santos.

Performance

The Benson is engineered for power and stability rather than speed. While it may not be the fastest vehicle on the road, its powerful engine provides the necessary torque for hauling heavy loads. Its handling is steady and reliable, particularly suited to off-road areas and rough terrains, although its size can make maneuvering through tight city streets a bit challenging.

Customization

At Los Santos Customs, players can tailor the Benson to better fit their needs. While the customization options aren’t as extensive as those for sports Cars, players can still enhance its durability with armor upgrades and improve performance with engine and transmission modifications. Additionally, players can personalize the appearance with custom liveries and paint jobs to match their style or corporate branding.
