Gran Turismo 7 Weekly Challenges: Ioniq Boom

A new set of Gran Turismo 7 Weekly Challenges arrives this Friday, September 11, as your console clock ticks past midnight. As ever, there are five events to work through, seven days to do it, and a set of bonus reward tickets for anyone who clears the lot.

If you’re new to the format, Weekly Challenges unlock once you’ve completed the GT Cafe career through Menu Book 39 and watched the ending movie. Each week pairs four races from the World Circuits roster with a fifth “Special” event built for that set, and podium finishes in one, three, and five of them drop bonus tickets into your Gifts (redeem them before they expire). Counting race prizes, clean race bonuses, and the tickets, a full sweep is worth roughly 1.3m credits.

This Week’s Highlights

The Special Event is a one-make race for the Hyundai Ioniq 6 N ’25, running five laps of Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta for an 80,000cr win reward.

The 6 N is one of the newest cars in the game, having arrived in Update 1.71 on August 20 alongside the big physics overhaul, and plenty of players have taken to it since. If you haven’t picked one up yet, it’s a 90,000cr Brand Central purchase, so the win reward nearly pays for it.

The headline money is at Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps, where the World Touring Car 700 runs eight laps for anything up to 700PP on racing tires and pays 140,000cr. It’s also the one event this week with the fuel and tire wear multipliers turned up, both to 8x, so expect at least one trip down the pit lane.

The Porsche Cup at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca matches the Special Event’s 80,000cr over five laps, open to any Porsche at 650PP or less. The Sunday Cup at Kyoto Driving Park’s Miyabi layout is four laps for road cars and 20,000cr.

That leaves the American FR Challenge 550 at Blue Moon Bay Speedway as the low point of the week at just 10,000cr, though at three laps for front-engine, rear-drive U.S. road cars, it won’t keep you long.
