Based on the front grille I would have to disagree with the notion that it's a GAZ, looks to me like a 2nd gen Plymouth Valiant.

Really the only difference is the rear end, and that could just be a case of artistic license.

A 60's Plymouth to me makes the most sense as the Rio map also contains a mid 60's Ford Thunderbird.

I have the theory that this car was initially meant for La Havana (since Cuban police forces drove USSR cars at that time), but somehow during development they just put that car in Rio and made a new model (or reused the Dodge model?) for La Havana police.

i agree with Jony93, the front grill looks very similar to the Valiant and the page should be changed, but why did they put a valiant in the game anyway, i remember movie that located in rio using different cars www.imcdb.org/vehicle_217443-Chevrolet-Opala-GM-V-1980.html its like a Opel Rekord

I have to agree. The few pictures I could find of Rio police cars of this era were almost entirely American or European makes (mostly VW Beetles and Chevrolet Veraneios which wouldve been cool to see in this game). The car does have some resemblance to a Volga but I believe the Valiant is a better choice based on historical context. Plus Plymouth Valiants were exported to various nations and used as patrol cars

An soviet made car in use by the Rio's Police dep. in the time of brazilian military regime(1964-1985)?
The government ruled by generals was aligned with the US back then, it would be extremely improbable..

Yet, the Rio's cruiser in service at the 70's aside with the GM "Veraneio" or 'Summer-set' (who is not present in the game) was the Ford Corcel, but the in-game model doesn't match what should be its real life counter-part.
The GAZ is indeed very similar, but if you pay attention, the front grid is pretty different from the game model.

That way, i think its most likely that the dev's based the game model on the 1965 Plymouth Valiant, as seen in the picture ahead.

It's just a livery which has nothing to do with Brazilian police

Not 1966, it's 1970+ (First year of production).

One of my favourite cars in the whole game! I don't know why, I just liked it from the first moment I saw it many years ago.
