The Chupcabra is a vehicle in Just Cause 4.

This article also includes data for the other sub-versions.

Appearance

It's a modern monster truck with a plastic pick-up style body covering the steel frame and components. There are three exhausts sticking out of both rear fenders. The armed versions differ by having weaponry mounted on the vehicles.

Performance

The steering is difficult to get used to. On flat ground and at low speed it can turn pretty well, but at higher speeds it looks like it understeers. It becomes unstable when going over obstacles, so it may randomly jump/spin to a random course.

All wheels can turn, but the way that's programmed makes it look like the vehicle is drifting at every turn, unless driving slowly.

Trivia

• The chupacabra is a Spanish and American folklore legend about a dog-size vampire-like animal that attacks goats, chickens and other livestock and sucks their blood (occasionally more than just that) with its long weaponized tongue. The creature was rumored to live in south America, but was eventually disproven as a hoax.
• The first monster truck in the game series is The Vampire, another supernatural monster.
• Just Cause 4 reuses many vehicles from Just Cause 3, with a different name and usually some hard to spot minimal changes. This vehicle is very similar to the Incendiario Monster Truck.
