Gran Turismo 7’s June Update: A European Triple Treat Elevating the Racing Lineup
Polyphony Digital is preparing a surprise that delights Gran Turismo 7 fans worldwide. Scheduled for release during the week of June 26, 2025, the next GT7 update adds three fresh vehicles. This is all from European roots and notably, all originating from the same automotive group. These mark the first time the series has introduced an entirely European podium of new cars in an update.
This silhouette teaser, updated by Kazunori Yamauchi is the creator of Gran Turismo, on June 19 has sparked intense speculation and excitement within this community. The teaser is confirmed
The silhouette teaser shared by Kazunori Yamauchi—creator of Gran Turismo—on June 19 has sparked intense speculation and excitement within the community. The teaser confirmed the timing (“coming next week”) and hinted at a trio of European models: a classic road-going icon, a legendary racing machine, and a modern-market car designed for everyday appeal. Enthusiasts quickly noticed something: all three cars share parentage under the same French-owned automotive group.
On forums such as GTPlanet and Reddit, fans have dissected the teaser image relentlessly. This key community guesses include: Citroën BX (or the newer Citroën C3) for its distinctive compact silhouette
Peugeot 2008 is a contemporary crossover-style model
Lancia Delta Rally (Integrale), the famed Group A rally star
From GTPlanet’s threads, it looks like a Citroen C3 drom2024 on left, a Renault Fuego on right and maybe the Delta Rally car on the front?”
“Looks like a Citroen C3 from 2024 on left, a Renault Fuego on right, and maybe the Delta Rally car on front??”
Meanwhile, Reddit users have sharpened the speculation:
“Three cars in Gran Turismo 7’s next update – Could it be Citroen BX, Peugeot 2008 and Lancia Delta rally?”
The recurring theme: a shared European parent, possibly the Stellantis group that includes Citroën, Peugeot, and Lancia. The teaser silhouettes indeed support this convergence.
While Polyphony Digital has not released the official car list yet, the community theory makes strong sense
- Citroën BX/C3- The BX’s iconic wedge profile was revolutionary in the 80’s and 90s while the modern C3 can bring fresh, current-day flavor to GT7’s street car roster.
- Peugeot 2008, which is a contemporary crossover loved in Europe, offers players a fun and practical everyday drive experience.
- Lancia Delta Integrale Rally Car is a timeless legend of rally sport. Its inclusion would resonate deeply with the G7’s emphasis on iconic racing heritage.
Gran Turismo has traditionally blended various global marques per update. There is a trio from a single European parent group showcasing Polyphony’s regional strategy, appealing to fans across Citroën, Peugeot, and Lancia. There are multiple options ranging from nostalgic to current, road to rally, and this update offers something for every player: collectors, racers, historic enthusiasts, and casual explorers. There is a speculation frenzy forum thread, Reddit buzz, which creates organic hype. Polyphony’s teasers are clearly working, stoking fan excitement, which is crafting many theories. It is even announced unusually mid-week instead of the typical weekend, that this June release deviates from GT7’s previous update patterns. This suggests Polyphony could be experimenting with delivery timing to maximize attention.
What you can watch out for in the major update is the Cars spotlights and specs. After the launch, expect many articles, video reviews and community breakdowns on various platforms of the performance vehicle, handling, and tuning potential
Series Events: Official GT7 World Circuits or Café challenges may spotlight one or more of these new additions, perhaps integrating Peugeot’s crossover or Lancia’s rally pedigree.
Collector & Fantasy Value: The Lancia Delta Integrale, especially, would be a prized pickup among simulation fans, cherished for its historical and collectible appeal.
As Gran Turismo 7 moved further into the lifestyle, there are updates like this which demonstrate Polyphony Digital’s continued commitment to head-turning content and responsive engagement. Tapping into the European group identity and celebrating rally royalty alongside modern utility, there is a game that reinforces its place as the premier diving simulator globally.
In the next few days, there will be an official announcement that will likely confirm the exact models and rollout schedule. Fans will watch Kazunori Yamauchi’s channels and the PlayStation Network for update notes going live around June 26, 2025.
Stay tuned, gear up, and get ready to turn heads—three new European icons are ready to hit your virtual garage soon. Keep Reading Khiladi Cafe for more such game news.
