Outlaw is a recurring vehicle and one of the first vehicles introduced in the Twisted Metal series. It made its first appearance in the original Twisted Metal, and it has gone on to appear in all Twisted Metal games except Twisted Metal 4. It is one of the most well-rounded vehicles, having average speed, handling, and armor.
Description[]
Outlaw is portrayed as a law enforcement vehicle in all of its appearances. It is a usually a standard police cruiser, however in Twisted Metal: Black and the 2012 game, it is an armored SUV police vehicle. It is almost always driven by someone with the "Roberts" surname, either Carl, Jamie, or Officer Roberts. In Black and the TV series, it is driven by a character named Agent Stone.
In all games, its Special Weapon is an omnidirectional attack that damages opponents that are within close range. The attack itself is typically an electric taser, though in Black and 2012 it is a machine gun.

Scrapped[]
- Outlaw - Twisted Metal: Harbor City: Outlaw was scheduled to be in Twisted Metal: Harbor City, the cancelled sequel to Twisted Metal: Black. Its design was closer to its original appearances throughout the series, and seems to be taken from an early concept art for Outlaw from Black. Its special weapon was its classic taser. Black's Outlaw was also in earlier versions of Harbor City, likely as a placeholder.
Trivia[]
- Outlaw may get its name from an ironic fact: despite each of Outlaw's drivers working for the greater good, they still participate in the Twisted Metal Tournament, which results in the deaths of several innocents.
- Every driver of Outlaw in the series to date has been "betrayed" by Calypso.
- With the exception of Twisted Metal: Black, each of Outlaw's drivers shared the same motive of ending the Twisted Metal tournament once and for all.
- Even though Outlaw doesn't appear in Twisted Metal 4, Quatro is the stand-in only in each driver of Outlaw's motives, as Meter Maid acquires the taser weapon for her 3-Wheeled Meter Car.
- Furthermore, a police SUV can be created with the Create Car mode.
