The Grotti X80 Proto is a two-door prototype hypercar appearing in Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the Further Adventures in Finance and Felony update, released on June 21st, 2016, during the Power Play Week event.
Influence
The X80 Proto is the first car in the series to be based on a concept hyper/racing car, namely the Ferrari F80 Concept, as seen in the frontal styling, especially in the grille area, side profiling and intakes. It also a bears strong resemblance to the Espera Sbarro Haze Concept. The mechanical spoiler seems to take its inspiration from the Ferrari FXX-K, as do the LED rear light units. The rear diffuser seems to be based on that of the GreenGT LeMans prototype car, which gives the X80 Proto a double diffuser array, not unlike those used in F1 from 2009 until they were banned in 2011.
Design
The X80 Proto assumes the design of a two-door Berlinetta sports car with an extremely stylised design. It is composed of large intakes on the front fenders and a small, low-profile cockpit, with the rear consisting of two tails interconnected with spoiler blades.
Visible from the front windshield are large shock absorbers positioned at the base of the vehicle's dashboard. The car features gull-wing doors functioning in a similar manner to those on the Osiris, RE-7B and Stirling GT, which carry part of the coloured roof panels.
One of the vehicle's most unique features its its built-in mechanical spoiler that is mounted between the rear fenders, which doubles as an airbrake and the halves tilt when the car turns.
The interior is mostly composed of carbon fibre, found around the dash, gauge cluster and central console. By default, the vehicle gains a dark-red interior around the front of the cockpit, directly under the window. Red can also be seen down the door panels. It was originally completely new and unique to this vehicle, but has since been used in several high-end super cars, including the Vagner and Visione.
The X80 Proto allows several colour combinations, where the primary one is applied on the centre of the front and most of the rear body, while the secondary one is applied on the fenders, the intakes leading to the engine bay and the stitches found in the interior. A trim colour is available for the dashboard, part of door panels and the seats, as well as an accent colour for the thin lines passing through the sides and the details on the wheels. The car uses unique wheels with five split spokes and black colour, wrapped in low-profile tyres.
Performance
As expected, the X80 Proto is one of the best performing cars in the game. The car's exposed bodywork and carbon-fibre usage gives it very little weight; comparable to the Panto and Futo. As well as this, traction is equally as good due to the all wheel drive layout. The vehicle's powerful engine gives it a high top speed, higher than that of the Adder by 1km/h. The car also has rapid acceleration, although several other super cars, such as the Emerus and Krieger beat it out in this field. In terms of handling, the car is equipped with separate rear flaps which individually lift up and down according to both acceleration and cornering, in a similar manner to the T20. This gives the car excellent stability and control in cornering, however the overall low weight and phenomenal power still prove too much in some instances, and cause the vehicle to spin out. The flaps also serve useful in braking situations. The car's exposed bodywork mean it is incredibly vulnerable to damage and tires being shot out, unfortunately. The car is also prone to slight oversteer when cornering at high speeds, and reducing the revs and throttle mid-way through a corner can often result in slight loss of control, but this can be easily recovered by maintaining around 6000 revolutions around corners.
The engine cover/cam cover design appears to be reused from the Furore GT and Rapid GT, appearing to be a V8 engine. The engine sound, while hard to summarize, is similar to Formula 1 racing car engines, an extremely high revving engine, which seems to have the sound of a supercharger whine. Because of the high power of the engine, and the excessive amount of revolutions per minute, the car tends to backfire when downshifting. Constantly hitting the brake when at high speeds can result in large backfires which have a louder sound than any other backfires on vehicles.
The X80 Proto's statistical stock top speed is 117 mph / 188.3 km/h. [ref?]
- EMS Engine Upgrade 1 produces 119 mph / 191.5 km/h.
- EMS Engine Upgrade 2 produces 120 mph / 193.1 km/h.
- EMS Engine Upgrade 3 produces 121 mph / 194.7 km/h.
- EMS Engine Upgrade 4 produces 122 mph / 196.3 km/h.
This makes it, at stock, one of the faster vehicles in the game, in a straight line, tied with the Nero Custom, however when modified, vehicles such as the Banshee 900R and Pariah will exceed this speed, even if the X80 Proto is upgraded too.

Oversights
- A small glitch causes the light emitted by the taillights as well as headlights to be visible through the solid bodywork at certain camera angles.
- Originally, if the player brought their X80 Proto to their garage and gets out, its door becomes unexpectedly detached from the car; this can occur to its passenger door too. This was fixed in the Import/Export update.

Trivia
- The name "X80" is an obvious reference to the F80 it is based upon, while "Proto" refers to its status as a prototype/concept car.
- Furthermore, the X80's internal name, prototipo, is Italian for "prototype". It is also likely the vehicle's initial name before being changed to the current one.
