In GTA Online, the Benefactor Krieger has finally been released. It is extremely expensive. But what does the new super sports car offer for its price and how fast is it?
What is new? Today, September 12, the new Benefactor Krieger has been released in GTA Online. Players have eagerly awaited the release of this super sports car because, according to data miners, it can compete with the fast Emerus. Some suspected it might even be faster. Even before its release, the Krieger was a star in the community.
Now it’s clear that you’ll have to drop some GTA dollars on the dealer’s table for the car. But can its speed keep up?
This is the Krieger: The car is likely based on the Mercedes-AMG One, with the rear resembling an Audi R8 LMS. The price of the beast is 2,875,000 GTA dollars. This makes it the most expensive super sports car currently available for purchase in GTA Online. More expensive are special vehicles like the Stromberg, the Vigilante, the Deluxo, or the Scramjet, which can either swim, have rocket propulsion, or can fly.
How fast is the Krieger?
The Krieger compared to Emerus: After the hard facts, potential buyers want to know what performance they get for their money. It is surprisingly fair and almost on par with the Progen Emerus.
YouTuber Broughy1322 has taken the new car to the track and recorded some test times. His result is that the Krieger ranks 3rd among the fastest cars in the super sports car category, directly behind the Emerus.
The Emerus had a lap time of 0:57.823 in tests. The Krieger was only slightly slower with a lap time of 0:57.858. This refers mainly to land races. In stunt races, the Krieger has even more potential and could complete faster laps.
How does it drive? According to the tests by YouTubers, the Krieger drives “easier” than the Emerus. The all-wheel drive provides a lot of control and minimal sliding in corners. So if you weren’t doing well with the Emerus’s driving behavior, the Krieger might be a better fit for you.
Community Feedback
How is the Krieger received? Some players are convinced by the new car. One user writes on Reddit that he was able to beat all his old stunt records by 2 seconds with the car. The handling and traction are particularly praised.
It is criticized that tuning is kept sparse and players cannot really let loose.
In the community, the Krieger has already been eagerly purchased and visually altered by players. Here are some screenshots from users.
