===Performance===
The Savage Rivale GTR is an acceleration-biased car with a maximum total speed of 282.5 mph/454.9 km/h at MAX+PRO with a Tuning Kit. Upon its release, it was the fastest accelerating car in the game, although it has since been outclassed by later cars like the Shelby Cobra 427, TRION NEMESIS, McLaren Mercedes MP4-25, McLaren MP4/8, and Rezvani Beast Alpha. It also features great overall handling and drifting capabilities, but its major shortcomings are its subpar nitro efficiency and low raw top speed when compared to cars with similar ranks or total speeds.
The S-R GTR's closest rivals are the McLaren P1™, Zenvo ST1, Falcon F7, Lotus Evora Sport 410, SCG 003S, and Nissan GT-R NISMO. It has stronger acceleration compared to these cars and a higher total speed than everything listed except the F7 (283.1 mph/455.8 km/h), SCG (283.9 mph/457.1 km/h), ST1 (284.2 mph/457.7 km/h), and NISMO (284.5 mph/458.1 km/h), but it has a lower raw top speed by comparison. Only the ST1 has worse nitro efficiency at Level 1, with 9. While being marginally better on short tracks, the S-R GTR is jeopardized by its lower raw top speed and worse overall nitro efficiency, which can prove a threat to the car's performance on longer tracks.
In addition, despite having a lower total speed by 3.8 mph/6.2 km/h, the McLaren MP4/8 is much superior over the S-R GTR due to having much faster acceleration, better raw top speed, sharper overall handling, and a much more efficient nitro (5/10/15).
The Lamborghini Egoista acts as a stat upgrade to the S-R GTR, but with faster acceleration and a slightly higher nitro speed above MAX+PRO.

====Events====
Upon its release, the S-R GTR was the best Class A car on short or medium-length tracks, but since the inception of the Ferrari 330 P4 and later cars, the S-R GTR's dominance is now completely gone. However, it is still competitive in a few Event brackets, but is otherwise outclassed by the likes of the McLaren 650S GT3 and Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4.
====Multiplayer====
The S-R GTR is not recommended for use in Multiplayer, despite its strong acceleration, as it will still easily be beaten by cars like the Lamborghini Centenario LP 770-4, Apollo Intensa Emozione, Aston Martin Vulcan, 2018 McLaren X2, Porsche Carrera GT, , and .
