The HVY Vetir is a military truck featured in Grand Theft Auto Online as part of The Cayo Perico Heist update, released on January 28th, 2021, during the Vetir Week event.
Design[]
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
The vehicle is seemingly based on the Saviem SM8/Renault TRM-4000, seen in the general shape and purpose. Some elements of the front of the truck seem to be derived from the Mercedes-Benz NG/FAP 1118.
The Vetir is depicted with a cab-over-engine layout and a rear bed with benches similar to the Barracks. The front of the truck features a small bumper with a winch on the centre, and square headlamps with what seems to be mesh screens for protection. The cabin features wide horizontal separations for the grille and small panels beside it, along with small lamps below the windscreen that work as high-beam lights. The sides of the cab makes use of bulky fenders, small side steps for access and black rear-view mirrors on the cabin area, along with rear-quarter windows. The interior of the cab uses the standard "Truck" analog dials.
The rear section mostly consists of the rear bed with small marker lights, seat benches and a canvas top, which is supported by black, thin frames. Large black mudguards are seen next to the rear wheels, along with the corresponding fuel tank on the right side and a spare wheel on the left. The rear end shares a similar layout to the Barracks, featuring small panels supported by thin frames and housing circular tail lamps, with the inner ones activated when the lights are on. Red-white warning strips can be seen on the bed, just below the rear tailgate.
The primary colour of the truck is applied on the cabin, rear bed, fuel tank and the rims, while the secondary colour is applied on the hinges of the bed, the roof frames on the bed, the rear section holding the tail lamps and the oil tanks. It uses a set of wheels with the same rim design as the Chernobog.

Performance[]
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
The truck struggles to get up hills due to its weak engine, although given enough time, it can reach a respectable speed on flat ground. Being designed as an off-road truck, it possesses good grip off-road, but due to its high center of gravity, it is slightly unstable in corners and on uneven terrain.

Cut Content[]
The truck was originally planned to be able to be stored and modified as a Personal Vehicle, not a Pegasus stored vehicle. This is clear from:
- The cut exhaust and livery modification[4][5].
- Its trunk bed modifications on the cinematic preview image and vehicle stats/flags on Rockstar Games Social Club.
- The official load screen ad for the vehicle shows two trucks, the second one has a camo livery.
Trivia[]
General[]
- 'Vêtir' is French for 'getting dressed', hinting to the French origins of its real life counterpart. It may also refer to its role in The Cayo Perico Heist, where it allows the player to con themselves into the compound after dressing up in guard clothing and pulling up in this truck.
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
- Like the Bodhi, the brake lights use the orange indicator lights and the indicators use the red brake lights.
- The door panels on both doors inside the interior of the Vetir slightly clip into the dashboard.
