The news from the Gran Turismo World Finals in Fukuoka continues to roll in. Alongside the major milestones and future venue announcements, Polyphony Digital and Hyundai have pulled back the curtain on the next confirmed addition to the Gran Turismo 7 car roster: the Hyundai Elantra N TCR.

After a year of competition, comprising a short online qualifier season and three preliminary rounds at live events around the world, the 2025 Gran Turismo World Series World Finals are now here — starting with the Manufacturers Cup.

The Gran Turismo World Series World Final is almost upon us, with this year’s showpiece event coming from one of the game’s two home towns: Fukuoka.

After marking the annual, year-end festivities with special bonuses in 2023 and 2024, Gran Turismo 7 will once again be awarding players with little gifts for playing over the next not-quite-three weeks.

There’s a bit of a strange look to this week’s Gran Turismo 7 Daily Races, with two races featuring specific car lists, a tie-in with this weekend’s Gran Turismo World Series final with a big credit boost, a tuning event, an oval race, and one which looks shockingly pay-to-win.

A quiet change to Gran Turismo 7, instituted in the recent 1.65/Spec III update, has made the game the dirtiest it has ever been — and we don’t mean in the Daily Races.

After a lengthy two-month wait and a substantial 15GB preload on PS5, the Gran Turismo 7 Spec III has finally arrived. While a lot of attention is on the big changes — including the debut of Circuit Gilles-Villeneuve and Yas Marina, the Power Pack DLC and Sophy 3.0, and a new “Unlimited” Invitation system — the rather diverse roster of eight new cars is pretty interesting, too.

With the Spec III update arriving today, players can also get a first look at the latest iteration of the Gran Turismo 7 Weekly Challenges, available from midnight Friday morning in your local time zone.
