Shitzu

Automotive manufacturer, Electronics company ST · Statewide

Shitzu is a Japanese vehicle and electronics manufacturer recurring across the Grand Theft Auto series and expected in Grand Theft Auto VI. Its motorbikes and compact trucks draw mainly on Suzuki with touches of Honda and Kawasaki, while its electronics arm appears modeled on Fujitsu. The name misspells the Shih Tzu dog breed as a piece of Rockstar toilet humor.

GTA VI Evidence So Far

No Grand Theft Auto VI trailer timestamp, screenshot, promotional image, Leonida location, vehicle model, price, class, variant, modification, or character use has been identified for Shitzu. Its connection to the game is limited to its expected presence as a returning manufacturer.

Keitora, Bikes, and Boats

Among Shitzu’s vehicle output, its small Keitora truck and much of its motorcycle range take their main inspiration from Suzuki. The motorcycle catalogue is not tied to one real-world maker alone: certain bikes instead draw from Honda and Kawasaki designs. Shitzu also builds several speedboats. Some of those boats began as Grotti products in Grand Theft Auto IV before being associated with Shitzu.

Logo and Electronics Identity

Shitzu’s electronics side is associated with Fujitsu. Its Japanese name is written シッツ and romanized as Shittsu. The brand name resembles a mistaken spelling of the Shih Tzu dog breed, despite the company being Japanese rather than Chinese. The joke also reads as a crude reference to “shit,” reinforced by an emblem shaped like a stylized pile of feces.
