Gran Turismo 5 January 16th, 2012 by Jordan (GTPlanet)

The latest Gran Turismo 5 update, version 2.03, weighs in at 225MB and is currently going live around the world. 2.03′s new features leakedwere , but have now been officially confirmed by Polyphony Digital:

12 new My Home theme colors and 12 new wallpapers for [GT Mode] have been added to the game. Please find these from the [My Home Settings]-[My Home Design] menu on the left side of the screen. 
Tire wear speed prediction has been added to the pit stop decisions in B-Spec, to prevent tires from wearing out completely during long races. 
Regenerative braking (which recovers energy by converting kinetic energy into electricity) in electric cars have been made stronger to extend driving distance. 
Electric cars will now also creep forward (as in standard automatic cars) when the brake is released without pressing the accelerator. 
Regarding the Chaparral 2J race car’s performance points, the increased performance factor due to the downforce produced by the fan is now calculated. 
A issue has been corrected where the car would pit in unintentionally during the last lap of a B spec race.

	three good cars out of six. why do they keep putting electric cars in the game? it's not like the gas powered cars are really polluting the air.

	Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 2011 The new Lambo is a beast fully tuned. The Astin looks and drives really nice too. I got ripped off on the 1988 Jaguar XJR-9 LM Racecar though. I already own the standard version and it's faster than the premium version. The VW is fun to drive. It's really easy to get it up on two wheels in turns. Haven't driven the Mini or the Leaf yet. I got my Red Bull Proto up to 322mph yesterday on the new track. It wasn't the speed test though so I guess it's not official, lol.
