Cable Car

Overview

The Cable Car in Grand Theft Auto V is an automated aerial tramway that provides transportation to and from the summit of Mount Chiliad. It is a unique feature in the game, offering players a scenic and leisurely way to experience the landscape of Los Santos from above.

The Cable Car is not a traditional vehicle that players can drive or customize. Instead, it operates on a fixed track, automatically ferrying passengers between the base and the peak of Mount Chiliad. This makes it a popular choice for players looking to enjoy the views or quickly reach the mountain's summit without the need for off-road vehicles.

Performance

The Cable Car does not have performance metrics as it is a non-drivable, automated transport system.

Customization

How to Obtain

The Cable Car is accessible at the base of Mount Chiliad in Blaine County. Players can board the tramway at the designated station, where it will automatically take them to the summit.

There is no purchase option for the Cable Car, as it is a public transport system available to all players in the game.
