The game is centered around an 'open-ended' design. There's no career mode, with the single-player menu simply presenting players with three variables: Mode selection (Time Trial, Single Race and Drift Trial), Car Selection and Track Selection. The player can to pick and choose circuits and vehicles, with credits earned based on the difficulty, performance and number of laps they have chosen. Players can select from any number of laps, 1 to 120. There are 45 tracks (including layout variations) plus the added bonus of reverse, which takes the track number to 70.

Gran Turismo features over 800 vehicle, each modelled and specced on their real life counterparts. Players will start with a low powered car, but can upgrade as they go. The dealerships available change after each race, so players won't always be able to buy what they are looking for.

For multi-player, players have access to four-player local wireless play across a handful of modes, with various options that allow players of all skill types to play together. There's no online play nor are there any online leaderboards for time trial times or the ability to share ghost laps with other players.
