The Dashound is a long-distance coach introduced in Grand Theft Auto V and carried into Grand Theft Auto Online as a Service vehicle.4 A visually similar coach appears among traffic in Grand Theft Auto VI Trailer 1.1

Overview

Design and Inspiration

The Dashound closely resembles the MCI Renaissance coach, later renamed the E4500, through its high-deck body, sloped windshield and long passenger window line.2 Its tall profile and large luggage bays also resemble the Prevost H3-45.3

Appearance

The Dashound appears in Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online. A visually similar coach travels through the opening highway sequence in GTA VI Trailer 1 alongside vehicles resembling the Brute Shuttle Bus, Vapid Speedo and Jobuilt Phantom.1

The nearer Easy Going coach has three axles and vertically stacked rear lights; the white coach has round rear lights set into its pink and blue rear graphics.5
