Grand Theft Auto 5 Online will be getting a facelift following Rockstar's recent announcement of a Tornado week update which brings in a slew of new cars, addition of new Sumo maps, Lowrider discounts on items, increased RP and a whole lot more.

Rockstar, the company behind the widely popular GTA series, is also set to release on April 5 the Declasse Tornado Custom vehicle to Benny's Original Motor Works in GTA Online 5 as reported by Gamespot. Benny's, game's custom repair shop, is expected to offer a diverse range of interesting upgrades including an 'eclectic' Livery as well as roof design options.

In addition, a renowned GTA informant, Yan2295 revealed in a number of GTA forums that the GTA developer will reportedly bring two new other cars as part of a continuing add-on of the famous Lowrider theme namely the Sabre and the Minivan according to iDigital Times.

As mentioned earlier, the Tornado Custom is already slated for April 5.  Minivan Custom is expected to arrive on April 12 while the Sabre Turbo Custom is purportedly scheduled for launching on April 19. Lastly, the well-known tipster also mentioned about the slated release of a new adversary mode called 'In and Out' on May 3.

As part of the new update, GTA 5 Online is also set to receive to new Sumo mode maps- Sumo V and Sumo VI. According to a report by the International Business Times, GTA's game developer offers a cautionary advice to players to be mindful of the cracks that litter throughout Sumo V map particularly when 'smashing, bashing, and barging on top of SS Bulker at the docks'. Likewise in Sumo VI, players should also be wary of cracks on the Sightings Bar and Restaurant's roof at the airport.

Meanwhile, the latest roundup on the next installment of the GTA franchise indicates that the work on GTA 6 is now a work in progress. Currently, there are unconfirmed reports suggesting that sixth installment's location would either be Bogota or Las Vegas. But since the work on the next game has just started, all these roundups churning out the rumor mill should be taken with a grain of salt.
