Banshee in FiveM: spawn code, top speed and engine sound

The Bravado Banshee spawns with banshee. Below: its handling numbers explained and ranked against the Sports class, ready Lua spawn code, the three forms of its hash, how to use its sound on an add-on car, and its mod kit, colour and light ids.

Read from the game files of GTA V Legacy build 1.0.3889.0 on November 8, 2026. It already exists in game build 3258, the build many FiveM servers enforce. By the FiveMRides team.

How the Banshee drives, in numbers

• Rear-wheel drive: fDriveBiasFront is 0.0, so all of the drive force goes to the rear wheels. It has 5 forward gears.
• Top-gear limit: about 178 km/h (110 mph), from fInitialDriveMaxFlatVel 148 x 1.2. 83 of the 126 Sports vehicles in the game files have a higher limit; the class median is 182 km/h.
• Drive force per tonne: 0.283 (fInitialDriveForce 0.34 on 1,200 kg). That is 23% more than the Sports median of 0.23; it is a handling index for how hard it pulls for its weight, not horsepower.
• Brakes: fBrakeForce 1 with 55% of the braking on the front axle (class median 0.86).
• Grip: peak traction 2.42 and sliding traction 2.32 (fTractionCurveMax / Min). The gap of 0.1 is how much grip it loses once the tyres slide; 49% of the grip sits on the front axle.
• Weight: 1,200 kg, 20% lighter than the Sports median of 1,500 kg.

Against all 126 Sports vehicles in the game files

The bar runs from the lowest to the highest value in the class, the filled part ends at the Banshee, the light tick is the class median. Hover a row for the numbers. Stock values without upgrades.

Spawn the Banshee in FiveM

Client script (spawns it where the player stands and seats them in it):

local model = `banshee` -- 0xC1E908D2
RequestModel(model)
while not HasModelLoaded(model) do Wait(0) end
local ped = PlayerPedId()
local pos = GetEntityCoords(ped)
local veh = CreateVehicle(model, pos.x, pos.y, pos.z, GetEntityHeading(ped), true, false)
SetPedIntoVehicle(ped, veh, -1)
SetModelAsNoLongerNeeded(model)

Server script (OneSync, the server owns the entity; admin only through the ACE restriction):

RegisterCommand('spawnbanshee', function(source)
    local ped = GetPlayerPed(source)
    local pos = GetEntityCoords(ped)
    local veh = CreateVehicleServerSetter(`banshee`, 'automobile', pos.x, pos.y, pos.z, GetEntityHeading(ped))
    while not DoesEntityExist(veh) do Wait(0) end
    SetPedIntoVehicle(ped, veh, -1)
end, true)

• vMenu: Vehicle Spawner, then Spawn Vehicle By Model Name, type banshee.
• txAdmin: in-game menu, Spawn Vehicle, type banshee.
• QBCore / ESX: /car banshee for admins.
• The second argument of CreateVehicleServerSetter is the vehicle type; for the Banshee it is automobile. A wrong type makes the server entity fail.

An add-on car that does not appear is a different problem (stream folder, data_file lines, model name): see FiveM car not spawning. All vanilla codes in one table: FiveM spawn codes list.

Hashes

All three are the same number: the joaat (Jenkins one-at-a-time) hash of the lower case name, which is what GetHashKey('banshee') and the Lua backtick form `banshee` return.

Use the Banshee engine sound on your car

The game has a car audio object named after this model, so one line in the vehicles.meta of an add-on car makes it use the Banshee sound set:

<audioNameHash>banshee</audioNameHash>

• Engine audio type: granular. Recorded engine samples blended by engine speed, the type most modern GTA cars use.
• The audio object sets rev limiter pops.
• The audio object is the whole vehicle sound: engine, horn, doors and radio genre change together. How it sounds on your car also depends on that car's gears and top speed.

Want a recorded engine instead of a GTA one? FiveM engine sounds lists 102 packs and the Soundpack Maker builds the resource.

• Mod kit id 51: 32 visible parts, 17 of them liveries.

Questions

What is the spawn code for the Banshee in GTA 5 and FiveM?

The spawn code (model name) is banshee. Its joaat hash is 0xC1E908D2 (3253274834 as an unsigned number). Admin menus such as vMenu, txAdmin and the /car command of QBCore or ESX take the model name as it is.

How fast is the Banshee in GTA 5?

Its handling gives a top-gear limit of about 178 km/h (110 mph): fInitialDriveMaxFlatVel 148 x 1.2, the value GetVehicleModelEstimatedMaxSpeed returns for ordinary handling values. Drag and upgrades change what a driver sees. It is RWD with 5 gears and weighs 1,200 kg.

Can I give an add-on car the Banshee engine sound?

Yes. Put <audioNameHash>banshee</audioNameHash> in the add-on car's vehicles.meta. The game then uses the Banshee audio object, which is the whole vehicle sound: engine, horn, doors and radio genre change together.
