This is the reason why I don't always drive supercars in GTA 5. Do you relate to it?
So obviously a lot of GTA 5 players would drive it's supercars and sports cars because they are very fast and awesome looking but nowadays when I play GTA 5 I don't always use sports cars when playing that game and mostly use station wagons, 4 door sedans, compacts, SUVs and cross-overs and drive it on the freeway in the game. That's because I try to imagine as if I am driving on an Indian highway. So as you all know we live in Bangalore in India and whenever we go on the Indian highways in cars, we see lots of overtaking so I try to capture it while playing GTA 5. I used regular 4 door cars and SUVs because supercars are super super rare on Indian highways and most cars you see you are family cars like hatchbacks, sedans, SUVs and crossovers. Also supercars are too fast and is faster than literally all cars so it doesn't capture that Indian highway feeling.
Like I imagine the station wagon in the game named Ingot as the Maruti 800 which we had in 2009-2015 as the Ingot is really slow and just like that the Maruti 800 was slow on highways too so I drive the Ingot in game slow showing how much faster other vehicles are. I imagine the Serrano in GTA 5 as our current car Maruti Suzuki Baleno which is much faster on highways and the driver we hired drives it really fast and overtakes many cars which I find really thrilling when going on a highway in our car and that way I drive the car in the game. I imagine the Cavalcade SUV in GTA 5 as the Toyota Innova(I know Cavalcade is a Cadillac Escalade but Cadillacs are super rare in India but Cavalcade in game is as common as the Innova is in India) and I imagine the Habanero car in the game as the Maruti Swift but it looks similar to the older Tata Nexon model. But yeah I am not going and driving our Baleno in real life on highway regularly so I try to feel it by doing it in GTA 5 on the freeway. Obviously it's not perfect.
In the game, the AI typically follows the lane and will go slow even with a truck in front but in real life Indian highways, drivers will change lanes fast to overtake. Also in the game if you drive the car full fast, no other cars can overtake you as the AI again makes it in such a way that the cars go at some max speed whereas in real life highway, speed varies like our Baleno might go 100-110 kmph, a Hyundai Santro might go at 90 kmph and suddenly a BMW X3 might go at around 130 kmph but the game NPC's cars go at a more constant speed so if our car goes really fast, we are the fastest in the game.
