Step-by-step guide for unlocking Hao's Special Works in GTA Online on the PS5 and Xbox Series X/S

How to unlock the new auto shop

Hao's Special Works isn't taking up new space in the Expanded and Enhanced San Andreas of GTA Online. Instead, as Rockstar's description reads, it will just be an upgrade to the Mod Shop inside the Los Santos Car Meet.

To unlock this specialist shop, players can follow these steps:

• Players will get a phone call from Hao which, when received, will allow them to take on a time trial.
• This time trial has to be completed with a highly-modified vehicle from Hao's Special Works.
• Players need to beat the par time of the time trial to unlock the shop.

The shop offers special HSW (Hao's Special Works) upgrades for select vehicles, including the five new ones. It also offers an all-new range of customization options, including chameleon paint, as well as performance upgrades like improved acceleration.

Some details about the new cars and where to buy them from

The first thing that the screenshots reveal is that the five new vehicles will be spread out between different auto stores in the game. The featured sellers include Southern San Andreas Super Autos, Legendary Motorsport, and Warstock Cache & Carry. This implies that the upcoming vehicles may vary greatly from one another.

Southern S.A. Super Autos is a dealer of low to mid-range vehicles, including tuners and other unique cars. Their inventory is quite diverse, and most players expect the Karin S95 to be available from here. This car was recently revealed by Rockstar themselves as a reward for GTA Online players who migrate their data.

Legendary Motorsports is almost an exclusive dealer of high-range luxury and sports cars. The cars available here are quite expensive, but not as much as some of the weaponized vehicles in Warstock Cache & Carry.

Warstock, as the name implies, deals in military and weaponized vehicles, including tanks, submarines, and even aircraft.
