The Alpha is based on the 2013 Cadillac Elmiraj. It also borrows features from a few other Cadillac cars like the tail lights and front grille. The front grille is split into two parts, between which sits the Albany logo. The headlights have a sleek design and the tail lights are divided into three parts. There is a horizontal strip for the brake light along with the two tail lights on the left and right edges which also hold the reverse lights at the rear end of the Alpha. This vehicle has a long hood. There is an Albany logo on the left and right side of the car's body towards the front end. This car has a unique 5-spoke rim design. The bumpers, exhausts, hood, spoiler and skirts can be modified at .
(The interior of the Alpha in first person perspective)
The Alpha performs very well in terms of speed and acceleration, however it feels a little heavy while making turns and maneuvering the car. The handling is great but there is some amount of oversteer produced when making turns at higher speeds. This vehicle can go from 0-60 in less than 4 seconds and has great acceleration. It is fitted with a 4.3 liter V8 engine that can touch around 500HP. Braking is really good for the heavy weight of the car. Upgrading the car improves performance but doesn’t change the feeling of heaviness with the car's weight while making turns.

This vehicle has no mission appearances in GTA 5’s story mode.
Available in every garage for all the protagonists.
Spawns around Los Santos, especially in the richer areas such as Rockford Hills. May sometimes be found in Vespucci Beach. A modded version of the Alpha can sometimes be spotted outside any of the Los Santos Customs garages. This vehicle is spotted being driven around places like Little Seoul, Bay City Avenue, Sinner Street, Vinewood Boulevard, Del Perro and Cassidy Creek Bridge at certain times of the day.
Alpha is the first letter of the Greek alphabet and is often used to show the dominance of something or someone, therefore expressing the vehicle's quality. The default radio stations for the Alpha are Radio Los Santos, The Lab, or West Coast Classics. Interestingly, the Alpha is badged with the old Albany logo, which is a silver crown. The car resembles a Cadillac ATS, which rides on GM's Alpha platform, hence why the name Alpha was likely used for this car.
