GTA Online Weekly Update (January 19) - bonus rewards, discounts, and vehicles

January 19 has come around, which means we’ve just got a whole new selection of bonuses, discounts, and new content thanks to the GTA Online Weekly Update! As with all weeks, you’ve got the typical spread of free vehicles for skillful or lucky players, price reductions on certain vehicles, and bonuses to a select number of missions.

In the GTA Online January 19 weekly update we’ve got a brand new car up for sale, as well as a new side activity in the form of Taxi driving, which should act as a nice distraction from all the dishonest payouts you’ve been getting recently.

New Content

The first big of new content added with the January 19 weekly update is the Brickade 6x6, a heavily armoured vehicle purchasable from Warstock Cache & Carry for $1,450,000.

If you’d rather give up the crime and pick up a respectable day job, you can also go to the Los Santos Taxi hub by the Casino and start doing Taxi missions. These pay out for each successful trip you make, and can act as a relaxing way of netting some extra money on the side.

If you’re really into the Taxi lifestyle, you can even buy a personal one for yourself for $650,000. If you own it, you can start Taxi missions from anywhere on the map, so it should save you plenty of time.
