The Ocelot Virtue is an electric hypercar featured in Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the continuation of the Los Santos Drug Wars update, released on March 16th, 2023, during the Last Dose Week event.
Influence[]
The Virtue is primarily based on the Lotus Evija, given the similarly-designed tail light and brake lights, as well as the unique, branded reverse light. However, unlike the Evija, the rear vents that surround the back of the vehicle are not separated from the tail lights. Also, unlike the Evija, the car lacks the retractable rear-view cameras located on the front fenders, but can be modified with a set of rounded wing mirrors with long supports, similar to those from the LaFerrari.
Design[]
The front fascia of the car shows heavy predominance of large mesh intakes, which are separated by two thin dividers around the centre and two wider ones on the outer portions, while the bottom is separated into two painted splitters with curved inner edges and a plastic section on the centre, which actually spans the front overhang on the underside. The upper area is denoted by the curved line above the intakes, which extends towards the front quarters, while the outer sections on the upper area are occupied by vertical plastic housings with dual modern headlamps. The centre of the boot area has an elevated profile and two small extensions on the lid that form two narrow ducts when closed, as well as the Ocelot emblem on the frontal area, ahead of the boot seam. The same boot lid hinges from the front and opens to reveal a small, fully-carpeted luggage compartment.
The side profile of the car denote its aerodynamic design, made up of dual inset formations and ducts on the front and rear fender areas, with the frontal ones being larger. The lower formations curve outwards and become seemingly flatter with the rest of the bodywork, while the upper ones curve inwards and lead towards the rear intakes. The glasshouse/cabin area is relatively curved in shape and bears plastic trim around the windows, painted pillars and a small vortex generator/fin on the roof, while the rear section bears a glass pane that exposes the engine bay. Further ahead from the rear glass there is a plastic vented section that is as wide as the rearmost edge of the window, followed by a retractable spoiler on the end.
The rear fascia is clearly distinguished by the narrow section below the retractable spoiler, while the section below has dual vents continuing from the sides and a central panel finished in plastic. Around the same panel and vents, there is a continuous red strip working as the main/brake light, while the panel features a unique "OCELOT" lettering that doubles as a reversing light. The rear bumper area mounts a large diffuser with three blades, with the inner ones mounting an additional insert/bridge, while a plate holder is seen ahead. The underside of the car clearly exposed the front splitter/panel and the rear diffuser, as well as a riveted plate finished in carbon fibre. The axle areas, on the other part, are exposed, thus rendering the control arms visible.
The interior of the car is a derivative of the one from the Nero, the Nero Custom and the XA-21, with the Ocelot emblem on the horn cap and the seat headrests.
The car is painted with a primary colour for most of the bodywork and the overstitches of the interior, and a secondary colour for the glasshouse/cabin area. A trim colour is also available for most of the interior. It has the same wheel design as the Cyclone II from the Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 releases of the game, which are in turn chrome variations of the ones from the Sugoi. Low-profile tyres are fitted as standard.

Performance[]
Vehicle[]
The Virtue has the fastest wheel-powered acceleration of any vehicle in the enhanced version of the game, as it can take off at 62 mph/100 Kph in 1.53 seconds, compared to the Cyclone that can accelerate to the speed in 1.83 seconds. It is only outperformed by the Cyclone II with HSW performance upgrades, and vehicles with rocket boost such as the Rocket Voltic. Vehicle top speed is 119 mph/191.5 kph, which is slightly faster than the Cyclone. The Virtue has low downforce and surface grip, and it has a chance of spinning out while turning at high speeds; however, an experienced driver can still easily navigate around corners.
Installing the GT Bolt-on Splitter will make the vehicle prone to colliding with curbs, as it has a very low hitbox.
The Virtue is powered by a large battery cell with a similar design to the Cyclone and the Imorgon, with a CVT/single-speed transmission that powers all wheels. As expected from a fully-electric vehicle, it has a quiet noise, barely heard in quiet areas with the radio off.

Features[]
The Virtue, along with selected Imani Tech vehicles, can be modified with a Remote Control Unit, which allows the ability to drive the vehicle remotely, similar to the RC Bandito and the Invade and Persuade Tank. Note that this feature cannot be kept if the Missile Lock-on Jammer is installed, and that the camera is always set to first-person view.
Armour/Defense[]
With 100% Armor upgrade and a player inside, the Virtue can withstand two regular explosives, or six Explosive rounds from the Heavy Sniper Mk II (blowing up on the next round). Unlike the vehicles from The Contract update, it lacks bulletproof windows, but it does not appear with a unique radar blip (features also present on the Greenwood, the 300R and the Omnis e-GT). The back interior is not solid and does not provide protection against firearms.
When the Armor Plating upgrade is equipped, the vehicle is given armour padding on the sides in a similar manner to the armoured vehicles featured in the Executives and Other Criminals update. However, like the Omnis e-GT, it gives even higher resistance to explosives than any Imani tech vehicles, resisting 11 RPGs/missiles, or 29 Heavy Sniper MK II explosive rounds, or 11 sticky bombs (The amount of explosives is halved if not occupied or remote controlled by a player). Prior to the San Andreas Mercenaries update, installing Armor Plating removed the occupants' ability to use throwable weapons, but this has been corrected.
The Virtue, along with selected Imani Tech vehicles, can be modified with a Missile Lock-on Jammer, which prevents the lock-on system of the Homing Launcher and other weaponised vehicles to lock onto it. Note that it cannot be kept if the Remote Control Unit is installed.
Weapons[]
The vehicle has the option to install Slick Proximity Mines (green flashing light), which burst a large amount of oil on the surface, causing vehicles passing over it to lose control. This deals no damage to either vehicles or players.

Notable Owners[]
- Isiah Friedlander owned a Virtue and parked it in the basement of FriedMind HQ in the Eclipse Medical Tower, but abandoned it as he flees to South America during the Last Dose 5 - BDKD mission. The car was found by Dax and Luchadora after the event, and it is currently owned by the player.

Locations[]
- Once the player has completed all Last Dose missions as leader, Isiah Friedlander's pre-modified Virtue will be given as a reward to be collected at a parking lot near the Eclipse Medical Tower.
- When entering the vehicle, the game will ask for a suitable garage for the player to store the vehicle. Choosing a garage will not move the vehicle directly, but the player can choose to simply exit it and use the return to storage option in the Interaction Menu.
- Available for purchase at Legendary Motorsport for $2,980,000, or for $2,235,000 after completing Last Dose 5 - BDKD.

Radio Stations[]
- In Grand Theft Auto Online, the default radio stations are grouped by genre. The Virtue 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[]
- The "Black Diagonal Racing Stripes" livery is similar to the decal on the Lotus Evija (prototype).
- The "Estancia Racing" livery bears a strong resemblance to a JPS livery for the Lotus Evija in Forza Horizon 5, designed by Dr Julls 42.
- The "Ocelot Racing" livery is based on the Lotus Evija LMH Concept Livery by Sean Bull Design.
Oversights[]
- When driving the Virtue in third-person, the camera is positioned much further away from the typical vehicle camera position. This is due to the camera data being copied from the Brickade 6x6.
- Opened doors lack collision to players.
- The player was unable to throw bombs outside the window when driving the vehicle. This has been fixed following the San Andreas Mercenaries update.
