The purpose of the video is to promote the car, not the game.
It showed some footage from GT5P (I don't see any GTPSP footage) because that's where the car originated. There wasn't any mention of the GT5.

The car is coming from a concept to reality and it will be shown @ the coming Frankfurt Auto Show.

That car will never be a production reality, nor will anything based on it in the mid future at least (>5 years).  

The name of the prototype itself contains the logo of Gran Turismo the game, you can't separate the two. So when the car is shown enywhere, it becomes a promoting tool for GT and Citroen by default.  

The car was shown at Auto Shows before, so the coming Frankfurt Auto Show is not why they are showing it on the streets of London now.

 

It IS being produced in real life.

$1.8 million each and only 6 will be produced. Powered by either a GM or Ford V8.

 

The car is heading into production. That's why the car was in London street to create buzz.
The final detailed spec will be revealed at the next Frankfurt Autoshow.
