This mod replaces the default handling.meta file to deliver a realistic driving experience in Grand Theft Auto V.
Almost every land vehicle has been fine-tuned to better reflect real-world handling characteristics from suspension and gear ratios to weight and air resistance.
Features
Realistic Weight & Physics: Vehicles feel heavier and behave naturally under acceleration, braking, and cornering.
Improved Air Resistance: Cars lose speed more realistically at high speeds.
Enhanced Suspension: Better stability, traction, and road feedback.
Authentic Gear Shifts: More natural and dynamic gear transitions.
Vehicle Type Differentiation:
Muscle Cars: Heavy, powerful, and traction-focused.
Sports & Super Cars: Light, agile, and highly responsive.
SUVs: Heavy, with noticeable body roll and slower acceleration.
Commercial Vehicles: Extremely heavy and sluggish.
Sedans: Balanced between weight and performance.
