The Benefactor Schafter LWB is a luxury four-door saloon appearing in Grand Theft Auto Online, and due to appear in Grand Theft Auto VI.
Description[]
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
The car was released as part of the Executives and Other Criminals update, alongside its armored variant.
Grand Theft Auto VI[]
The Schafter LWB appeared in the September 2022 GTA VI leaks, in a single clip.[1] The vehicle's model appears to have been upgraded in overall quality, featuring increased polygon count, 3D-modeled panel gaps, enhanced pillar details, remodeled door handles, and a brand new interior with a visible Benefactor badge on the steering wheel. The interior door cards and three-spoke steering wheel seen in the leaked footage seem to be inspired by one of the vehicle's influences, the Mercedes-Benz E-Class (W212), albeit the E 63 AMG model.
Design[]
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
The Schafter LWB is a long wheelbase variant of the Schafter, featuring the front and rear bumpers of the Schafter V12 with minor alterations. The front bumper assumes a standard lower insert on the centre (instead of the black/carbon-fibre one from the Schafter V12 and the Schwartzer), and the rear bumper lacks the vents of the Schafter V12. A quarter window divider has been added to the rear windows.
Colour distribution is the same as the regular Schafter, where the primary colour is applied to the body and the interior stitching, while the secondary colour is applied on the bonnet, roof and boot. A trim colour is also available for the interior, being applied to the dashboard, seats and door panels. Its wheels share the same rim design as the "Diamond Cut" sport rims available in Los Santos Customs, wrapped in low-profile tyres.

Detailing
Performance[]
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
The Schafter LWB is largely a downgrade of the original Schafter, offering inferior acceleration, but slightly higher top speed. Handling is slightly more lethargic, with the increased weight and longer wheelbase hurting the cornering radius and response time.
