addedNew Free Vehicle: GrossoAs a token of our gratitude for clearing out 50 million Wasted, we stole this sweet AWD ride from the Enforcers. The Grosso’s innate perk is Lock Jammer, which gives the player a longer immunity window to Weapon Lock after evading with a Boost or a Sidebash. To unlock the new car, simply update the game and the Grosso should already be added to your garage.
