Note, the production model of this vehicle has a longer recharge time on uses of the rocket burst.”
The Coil Rocket Voltic is a modified sports car featured in Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the Import/Export update.
Design[]
The Rocket Voltic is essentially a Voltic with a large "rocket" engine attached to the rear. While seemingly identical to the Voltic in body design and wheelbase, the rear of the car was heavily modified, with two intakes on the cabin area, a fuel cap on the driver-side rear section and a central cut-out on the rear end, having the silver "COIL" lettering relocated below the turbine. The area behind the cabin is covered by a panel and featuring multiple hoses for the aforementioned turbine. The interior of the car uses the same components as the standard Voltic, but features numerous switches and steel foot rests in a similar manner to vehicles like the RE-7B and the ETR1, as well as a padded roll cage and race seats.
Color distribution is slightly changed, where the primary one paints most of the body and the interior stitching, while the secondary one is applied on the rear cover where the turbine and the hoses are seen emerging from. Although not accessible, a tertiary color is also available for the cage paddings, which is set to black when purchased. It shares the same rim design as the standard Voltic, being a derivative of the "FiftyNine" sport rims available in Los Santos Customs.

Performance[]
Vehicle[]
While the car shares the electric engine as the normal Voltic, it is slightly heavier due to the addition of the rocket on the back, but still has good acceleration thanks to the direct transmission between the engine and the wheels.

Ability[]
The Rocket Voltic is fitted with a large rocket booster that, when used, emits a small burst that propels the vehicle at high speed for a second. From a stand-still, the vehicle will be boosted from 0 to around 130 miles per hour in approximately 1.5 seconds, and running at top speed, it will boost to around 140. After that, the rocket needs a recharge time of nine seconds before being used again, but should be noted that it will not recharge until the car lands on all four wheels. However, the vehicle may become airborne again and it will continue to recharge as long as it is grounded afterwards.
Like the fighter jets' turbines, the Rocket Voltic's turbine will push away any player or pedestrian that is standing in front of the same if the rocket burst feature is used, even killing them. The player needs to be very careful on using its turbine, as it can propel forward and crash headlong into traffic.

Prominent Appearances in Gameplay[]
- The Rocket Voltic appears in the fifth "Special Vehicle Work" mission, Firewall Protection, as the main transportation for the team to reach the main targets. This version has a much faster recharge time, taking only 4.5 seconds to recharge the rocket boost.
- Can be used in the VIP/CEO work Velocity.
Locations[]
- Can be purchased by CEOs with a Vehicle Warehouse from Warstock Cache & Carry for $3,830,400 or $2,880,000 (SecuroServ trade price after completing the Special Vehicle Work mission Firewall Protection).
- The vehicle is stored in the Vehicle Warehouse's Underground Garage.
Radio Stations[]
- In Grand Theft Auto Online, the default radio stations are grouped by genre. The Rocket Voltic uses the "Dance" group which can play:
- FlyLo FM
- Soulwax FM
- Los Santos Underground Radio (Enhanced Editions only. May not play due to a three station limit within the group)
- Music Locker Radio (Enhanced Editions only)
- Media Player (Enhanced Editions only. May not play due to a three station limit within the group)
Trivia[]
- Despite its compact design, the car still allows for prostitutes to be picked up.
- The nature of this vehicle and the Legendary Motorsport description are allusions to SpaceX, as both Tesla Motors and SpaceX are owned by Elon Musk.
- The rocket concept is possibly inspired by the JATO rocket(s) attached to classic Chevrolet Impalas tested in episodes of MythBusters.
- Prior to the After Hours update, the vehicle was unavailable for placement in the Content Creator.
- In stunt races, the rocket boost recharges for three seconds, making it much faster to recharge than the Special Vehicle Work of Firewall Protection.
