The Quadra Turbo-r V-tech Car is more than just a vehicle in Cyberpunk 2077; it’s a symbol. Featured prominently in the game’s trailers and promotional materials, this car has become synonymous with the dark, gritty, and high-octane world of Night City. If you’re looking to cruise around in the same iconic ride that V, the protagonist, is often seen driving, this guide will walk you through exactly how to get your hands on the Quadra Turbo-R V-Tech car in Cyberpunk 2077, updated for version 2.2.
Why the Quadra Turbo-R V-Tech Car is a Must-Have
What makes the Quadra Turbo-R V-Tech car so special in Cyberpunk 2077? Beyond its striking aesthetics, reminiscent of classic muscle cars fused with futuristic design, it’s the car’s legacy within the game’s marketing that truly elevates its status. Long before players set foot in Night City, the Quadra Turbo-R V-Tech was already imprinted in their minds as the quintessential Cyberpunk 2077 vehicle. It’s not just a car; it’s a piece of the game’s identity.
Beyond the hype, the Quadra Turbo-R V-Tech delivers on performance and driving experience. It boasts significant power, offering thrilling acceleration and a robust feel on the road. Whether you’re navigating the crowded city streets or speeding through the Badlands, this car provides a stable and responsive ride. Furthermore, both the first-person and third-person perspectives while driving are exceptionally well-crafted, immersing you fully in the driving experience. It’s arguably even more iconic than Johnny Silverhand’s Porsche 911, simply due to its pervasive presence in the game’s marketing.
Step-by-Step Guide to Obtaining the Quadra Turbo-R V-Tech Car
Getting your own Quadra Turbo-R V-Tech car in Cyberpunk 2077 involves completing two side jobs. These missions are relatively short and can be undertaken at almost any point in your playthrough, though be prepared for some potential combat in the first gig.
Step 1: Complete the “Life’s Work” Gig
The first step to claiming your Quadra Turbo-R V-Tech is to complete the gig titled “Life’s Work.” This side job automatically initiates when you enter the designated area in The Glen, Heywood. Padre Ibarra will contact you with the details of the job – a “Search and Recover” operation. Your objective is to infiltrate the Wicked Tires Autoshop on McBride St, upload a virus to a computer, and retrieve Jake Estevez’s custom vehicle.
Head to The Glen in Heywood and approach the Wicked Tires Autoshop to trigger the mission.
Once you’re near the autoshop, Padre will call, providing you with the mission briefing. You have a choice in how you tackle this mission: a direct confrontation or a stealthier approach.
Option 1: Eliminate the 6th Street Gang Members
For players who prefer a more direct approach, clearing out the autoshop is a viable option. Be warned, the 6th Street gang members inside are fairly tough, especially if the mission is marked as “High Threat” for your current level.
If you choose to fight, consider using a sniper rifle like the Overwatch for long-range engagements. Headshots are highly effective against these enemies. Alternatively, utilize hacking skills to weaken or disable them before engaging directly.
Option 2: The Quick In-and-Out Method
If you prefer a faster, less confrontational approach, you can quickly infiltrate the autoshop, complete the objectives, and escape. Upon entering the shop, head to the corridor located beneath the first car bay on your left. Proceed to the end of this corridor and take the stairs up to the office. Hack into the computer in this office and upload the virus.
The target vehicle, Jake Estevez’s custom car, is conveniently located on the ground floor, right next to the office. Simply enter the car and drive away.
Once you’re in the car, drive it to the designated location to meet Jake Estevez. After a brief interaction where Jake thanks you for your help, the “Life’s Work” gig concludes. Padre will contact you to confirm completion and transfer your payment; expect around 3100 Eddies, though this might vary based on your level.
Step 2: Complete the “Sex on Wheels” Side Job
With “Life’s Work” completed, you’re one step closer to owning the Quadra Turbo-R V-Tech. Now, you need to wait for approximately 24 in-game hours. You can use the “Skip Time” function in the game menu to advance time quickly.
After the waiting period, you will receive a text message from Jake Estevez. He expresses his gratitude and invites you to his garage in Rancho Coronado, Santo Domingo, to give you a special thank you gift. As you might have guessed, the gift is the Quadra Turbo-R V-Tech car!
Travel to Jake’s garage in Rancho Coronado, Santo Domingo. Upon arrival, your mission objective will update, instructing you to enter the garage and get inside the car.
To permanently add this stunning vehicle to your collection, simply drive it out of the garage and beyond the marked orange area on your minimap. Congratulations! The iconic Quadra Turbo-R V-Tech car is now yours to keep and drive throughout Night City.

Bonus Easter Egg: The Roach Sticker
There’s a fun little easter egg hidden on the Quadra Turbo-R V-Tech car that many players might miss. As a nod to CD Projekt Red’s other flagship title, The Witcher 3, the developers included a sticker of Roach, Geralt’s trusty steed, on the vehicle.
Look closely at the rear right side of the Quadra Turbo-R, just above and slightly behind the wheel. You’ll spot a small sticker depicting Roach in one of her signature, slightly awkward poses. It’s a charming detail that Witcher fans are sure to appreciate and a testament to the developer’s attention to detail and love for their own creations.
Now that you’re cruising in style with the Quadra Turbo-R V-Tech, why not enhance your Cyberpunk 2077 experience further? Consider obtaining Johnny Silverhand’s iconic Samurai Jacket (guide here) or explore other free vehicles available in Night City (free vehicles guide).
