Gran Turismo 7 Spec IV Update: New Cars, Sportsland SUGO Track, and New Features
Polyphony Digital will release update 1.72 for Gran Turismo 7 on October 15, 2026, launching the first phase of the major Spec IV content package with six new vehicles and a Japanese racing circuit, according to reports by Konsolowe.info and Gamegpu. Totaling 12 new vehicles and two tracks across two stages, the Spec IV package follows a 2022 release that faced initial struggles and low ratings before turning the trend around.
While Gamegpu and Konsolowe.info point to an October 15 rollout, Interia Gry reports that the update arrives slightly earlier on October 14. The free update applies to both PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 versions, with Gamegpu confirming compatibility for PlayStation VR2 users.
Sportsland SUGO Makes Series Debut
The primary addition to the track roster is Sportsland SUGO, located in Murata, Japan, as reported by Interia Gry. Konsolowe.info notes that this marks the circuit’s first appearance in the Gran Turismo series.
Known for its demanding layout and significant elevation changes, the track was previewed during the third round of the Gran Turismo World Series 2026 in Singapore, according to Gran-Turismo.com. All new vehicles and track configurations will be accessible in single-player campaign rankings, custom online lobbies, and Sport mode ranked races, Gamegpu reports.
Six New Vehicles Join the Roster
The update brings a diverse lineup spanning decades of automotive history, blending classic combustion models with modern electric concepts. According to Konsolowe.info and Interia Gry, the vehicle roster comprises:
- Ferrari F355 Berlinetta (1994): Highlighted by Konsolowe.info as a classic V8 coupe making its long-awaited addition to the game. Konsolowe.info adds that the model features a 3.5-liter V8 engine and a closed-roof Berlinetta body style.
