The Blista is a minivan featured in GTA III and GTA: Liberty City Stories and a three-door hatchback in GTA V and GTA Online. It is manufactured by Dinka in the .
The Blista resembles a Dodge Caravan (Third Generation) in appearance, with the headlights and grille resembling a Chrysler Voyager (Fourth Generation), depicted as a modern minivan in contrast to the older Moonbeam. Despite the Blista's minivan design, it can only accommodate three passengers and one driver, the same as any four-door vehicle. Its name, rather unpleasantly, sounds like a portmanteau of the words "blister" and possibly "Honda" (probably referring to the first generation Honda Odyssey, even though it has a closer resemblance to the Dodge Caravan).
The Blista spawns with a primary color on the upper side and a secondary color on the lower side, rear-view mirrors and window trim.
The Blista (Japanese: ブリスタ, Burisuta) returns in Grand Theft Auto V, which has been completely redesigned into a three-door hatchback (more specifically, a B-segment), but still retains traits reminiscent of its predecessor, the Blista Compact, with sport coupe styling and elements such as dual exhaust pipes. It is based on a mix of both the European and Asian third-generation Honda Civic Type R hatchback and the 2009–2014 pre-facelift Volkswagen Scirocco R, as seen in the front and rear fascias and some side profile details, such as the door handles. The lower parts of the side profile as well as the side skirts might have been inspired by the 2008–2010 Honda Fit/Jazz Sport, while the C-pillar might have been inspired by the second-generation 3-door Mazda2, although elongated, similarly to the one found on the Scirocco. The overall shape and size of the car resemble either the Mazda2 or the 2006–2013 Toyota Yaris/Vitz hatchback, judging by its rounded profile on the roof.
The Blista is more suited to younger drivers of Los Santos due to its compact shape and its sporty design. The front end of the vehicle is relatively small, featuring a plastic grille and circular headlamps. The intakes are covered by plastic horizontal bars, and the bonnet has a small scoop. On the sides, carbon-fibre mirror shells can be seen mounted over black frames, followed by plastic trim around the windows. The door handles are finished in chrome. The rear of the car is predominated by the bulky bumper and the black diffuser, holding the two exhaust tubes. The tail lamps have a circular shape on the rear and arrow-pointed edges on the sides, along with a small spoiler over the rear window. A silver "BLISTA" badge and the manufacturer emblems can be seen on both ends.
The Blista only uses a primary colour, which applies on the whole bodywork and the interior stitching. While there is a secondary colour in the files (set to black in all colour sets), it does not seem to be applied on the car. The vehicle uses eight-spoke rims wrapped in low-profile tyres.
