Games also have to support it and have to be patched, otherwise if you force the VRR (this is an option just below on the screenshots they released) they advise it could cause visual issues.
So yes GT needs to update to support it, unless it’s already there but needs activation.
Because you don’t seem to have actually read the full press release from Sony I’ve quoted the relevant bit for you with the screen shot.

Man, if this was reality, that December update would be the perfect Christmas present for me lol. Absolutely love the Suzuki Cappuccino, and I'd love to see the Accord Euro R back in GT as well (learnt to drive in an '03 Accord Euro, fantastic car!)
The '71 Maverick looks awesome, and the Bellett and Autozam are great little cars as well. Then on top of that, a new original track! As much as I like the original tracks from past GT games, I love having completely new tracks to learn.
So all in all... perfect update, lol

Did a fun bit of work working out what Premium cars from GT6 didn't make it to GT7 - link here! (GT6 premium missing)
I wonder which ones will be upgraded/added for GT7 ... noting that some of them won't be appearing due to licensing issues (Lotus, NASCAR etc)
There's201 200 in the list, realistically there's probably about 183 that could come to GT7.

To put some perspective - the OP was content for those unsure. Also, with announcement today, does that mean with “few additional patches” of content, we could see quite a number of new cars in April?

Thanks! Removed the 71' Mach 1 and the Fairlady Z - the issue was the GTPlanet car list labels it as a 370Z!
I left the 1986 Quattro in, given the wing size difference!
Agreed RE: the customer builder cars - I guess we'll see

Thanks for the list! I was looking at it myself and glad someone compiled it together. The VW Kübelwagen Typ 82 '44 and VW Schwimmwagen Typ 166 '42 would be nice to have back to compliment the Jeep and would make for a nice World Circuit/Seasonal event in one of the updates. Not sure what for April would make it in, but there is a lot to work with, especially the Kei cars and the American muscle. Having a mix of GT6 returners and a couple of new entries would make for a good pack.

Fingers crossed!My guess is that we will get the Tesla Model 3 that was teased since the modeling on it is likely complete:
Tesla Model 3 Teased for Gran Turismo 7 in New Promo Video
There's a new Gran Turismo 7 preview video available on the official GT channels today, and it appears to confirm that a racing-grade Tesla Model 3 will be coming to the game in a post-launch update. The video, "Virtual to Reality", is something of a crossing of streams between the Gran Turismo gwww.gtplanet.net

Most of us were quite wrong. It's okay to be wrong, we're all humans after all, but too many around here make me think this:
You want pizza for supper. Mom says meatloaf. You throw a tantrum.
Now, if you get your way but continue to grouch, that doesn't reflect well on you.

They need to fix all of the gameplay issues more than they need to add cars and tracks. I wouldn’t care if, say, the Lexus LFA didn’t get added to GT7 until summer, as long as they fixed the stuff in need of fixing first.
Now, as far as new content after fixing everything is concerned:
Just my two cents
Now, as far as new content after fixing everything is concerned:
- New cars should include more recent stuff like the McLaren Senna and the 992 GT3. There is a noticeable lack of cars from the past five years in this game. More old-school stuff can be added at the same time though, but I know some of us like the newest cars.
- For tracks, I would rather see more real-world circuits in the game. Sure, Apricot Hill and Grand Valley would be cool, but I would love to see Silverstone and Indianapolis return in GT7, as well as new-to-GT locations like Imola.
- New World Circuits events should include more races with Gr.2 (GT500) and Gr.1 (LMP1/LMH) cars. More endurance races that last an hour or more for those who love a good and long period of racing and strategy. More one-make series and even a Vision GT series would be great too.
- Give more circuits completely dynamic weather, particularly dynamic rain. Some obvious locations need the rain feature, like Interlagos. And why does one layout of Dragon Trail have the rain feature, but the other one doesn’t? Come on, PD! Personally, I love the added challenge of driving on a wet circuit.
Just my two cents

Don't know if here is the right place to post this but I have a theory (and maybe many people might have stated this too but I haven't noticed it before) that PD are previewing their plans on new car updates in Channel and Museum sections inside Brand Central. Here's some kind of proof for this by reviewing their counterpart dealerships in GT Sport:
- Ford featured a video of the 2018 IMSA Ford GT LM that was removed in GT7 when the 2018 Ford GT Racercar appeared.
- Corvette C4 appears more than 3 times in the Chrevolet Museum considering their different trims.
- Jaguar D-Type was featured 6 times.
- Mercedes-Benz museum shows at least 3 times the W194 300SL and 300SL Gullwing models (disregarding that the later was featured in previous iterations of the game).
- BMW has an image of some variant of the 3.0 CSi (if I'm not wrong), ressembling the additions of 3.0 CSL from '71 and '73.
- Ferrari musuem holds the one of highest number of predictions without any partnership, with the appearance of the Testarrosa, 308GTB, F50 (coming to GTS in an update), F12 Berlinetta, and FXX-K.
- Abarth shows a video of the 595 "50 anniversary".
- A new video of the Toyota GR Yaris appeared some months before the car actually debuts in the game.
- Nissan museum has a card dedicated for the Fairlady Z432.
- Mazda RX-8 Spirit R is featured in the brand musuem as well as the original RX-Vision and 2015 Demio (GTS update).
- Probably, the most evident manufacturer to demonstrate this is Porsche with their media showcases. The musuem section holds the appearence of the 356 A (both coupe and speedster), 550 Spyder (in a racing version), 917 (K and LH), 962, 911 Carrera RS (964), and the Carrera GT. In their channel section, there's a short video for the Porsche 962 in Daytona
.
What are my predictions based on this? These are some possible returning and new faces based upon the number of similar car model appearances in the media:
- Ford Puma? - 1 (extremely low chances)
- Chevrolet Corvette C5 - 3 (maybe Z06)
- Chevrolet Camaro 5th Gen - 3 (low chances because it may be superseded by the 6th gen)
- Chevrolet Camaro 2nd Gen - 5
- Chevrolet Corvette C8 - 5 in total (nearly a confirmation at some point, hopefully a Z06)
- Dodge Charger - 3 (or up considering other trims)
- Dodge Coronet 5th Gen - 3
- Jaguar XK120 - 3

This content wouldn't come in April completely but over the game's lifespan. Might have some clear omissions though. This predictions might mean nothing to the future content too. I'm really looking forward what GT7 could bring to the table.
EDIT: Both lists were grouped inside spoiler tags to reduce the size of the post. Also added Lamborghini in the predictions list.

From their info blog:
Some options they could go for (from the real world locations):
* Le Mans - Bugatti Circuit
* Le Mans - Maison Blanche Circuit
* Nürburgring - Sprint Circuit
* Nürburgring - Müllenbachschleife
* Barcelona - National Circuit
* Barcelona - Club Circuit
* Monza - Junior Course
* Tsukuba - 1000 Course
* Suzuka - West Circuit
The ones in bold I would really love to see added.
From the original locations they can basically do what they want, but I would love to see a Dragon Trail Seaside + Gardens combined layout.
Mind you that’s course layouts, not locations. Which for the record is also perfectly fine for me this early in the game’s lifespan. I assume that will mostly be shorter layouts of our existing locations, at least for the real world locations.

Yeah the Audi Gr.3 as well as the Ferrari 458 Gr.3 are both unstable beasts. No matter how much tweaking I tried doing, they simply want to kick out the back no matter what. I find ways to deal with it to an extent... but in a true competitive race online you'd be a sucker to use one of these rides and hope to stay competitive. I'm on DualSense, wonder how wheel users deal with these cars.
---
As far as what I'd like to see with this upcoming 'major' update:
I want to be able to apply carbon fiber paints to individual parts of the car and still be able to apply another 'special paint' to other parts of it. Right now if I want actual carbon fiber parts on my car but not the entire car, I have to use decals to cover the parts I don't want in CF. It makes for a dull design due to the limitations of decal texture types. Applying a true semi matte metallic/flakes paint along with carbon fiber on other parts would be sweet. Also, painted carbon fiber would be sweet.
Also, multiplayer lobbies need to be improved significantly. Bring them to the level of GTSport at least. They're missing crucial features as simple as changing the course you're racing on after creating the room.
More cars is always welcome in my book. The way I see it, they probably had a few already prepped pre-launch for post launch content so I don't think it's something they need to work much on at this point, at least for the first batch so yes I welcome more cars. The more the merrier.
More events of course, and an improvement of the daily roulette chances. More ways to earn roulette tickets than just 1 per day after finishing the Cafe would also be great.

They're definitely going to have a strong lineup, not sure if Road Atlanta was the best possible pick for the first content update but will be fun
What would be better still is if a European MR layout racecar or LM special was in the lineup.
I would also say some kind of hatch, AWD, for extra realism

Seems like a realistic update to me. Evo 8 is nice but I would've liked to see the Evo 9 MR.
