The Bravado Gauntlet is a two-door muscle car featured in Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online.
The Gauntlet is heavily inspired by the 2008–2013 Dodge Challenger, based on its distinctive body shape, with lines that are flared and smooth, and iconic hood scoops, while the "GAUNTLET" lettering design on its rear quarter is similar to that on the 2006 Challenger Concept. The Gauntlet also appears to take major influences from the fifth-generation Chevrolet Camaro, having a similar grille, front bumper, side skirts, and side vents. While its rear end draws heavily from the Challenger, the tail lights are closer to the ones on the Camaro as well.
The front end of the car has a slight pointy shape, where the bumper houses a meshed central intake that is about half the car's width and two circular fog lamps beside it, as well as the license plate mounted in front of the intake. On the upper area, the car features four horizontal grille separations on the center, while the outer edges have black housings with dual circular headlights. The hood has a bulged shape on the center that is wider on the rear half, while the Bravado emblem can be seen on the front.
The sides are mostly traditional in appearance, featuring flared arches and thin vertical intakes on the rear fenders, intended to cool off the rear brakes. Silver "GAUNTLET" lettering can be seen around the rear quarters of the vehicle, while the front fenders bear "450cui Turbocharged" badging. The greenhouse area is relatively simple and features black trim around the windows, with black separations between the door and rear-quarter windows, along with colored mirror wings.
The rear of the car is very traditional, featuring semi-circular tail lights with chrome details on either side, together with the Bravado emblem on the central section. A black section can be seen at the bottom of the bumper, which spans almost the entire width of the car and houses two rounded exhaust tips on the edges. The license plate can be also seen on the center of the black section.
In the enhanced version, the interior of the Gauntlet is shared with the Dominator, the Buccaneer and the Ruiner, using the same textures and dial set. The steering wheel bears the Bravado emblem on the center.
Most of its bodywork is painted with the primary color, while the secondary color is present in the form of a wide stripe running across the whole vehicle, starting from the hood and continuing to the trunk, also going down onto the rear bumper. The car uses seven-spoke rims also shared with the Radius, which looks very similar to certain custom muscle rims seen in Los Santos Customs, wrapped in low-profile tires.
