The Hyundai Elantra has completely taken over Daily Race B in Gran Turismo 7—but just how overpowered is it?
I attempted the Cobra King Challenge using non-meta cars at Bathurst in Gr.4, but what I discovered was ridiculous. At the time of recording, approximately the first 1,300 positions on the qualifying leaderboard were occupied by the Hyundai, with the only alternative inside the top 1,500 being a Volkswagen Scirocco nearly 2.5 seconds off the leading pace!
During the stream, I tested the Scirocco, Mazda3 and Hyundai Elantra under similar conditions:
???? Mazda3: 2:15.3—barely inside the top 1,200
???? Hyundai Elantra: 2:13.9 with a similar amount of practice
A meta car will always exist, but should one car be this dominant? When choosing anything else means sacrificing over a second per lap, GT7’s supposedly balanced Gr.4 category effectively becomes a one-make race.
In this video, we examine the leaderboard, test the Hyundai’s closest competitors and decide whether Gran Turismo 7’s Balance of Performance is completely broken.
Do you think Polyphony Digital should nerf the Elantra or improve the other Gr.4 cars? Let me know below!
