Retitled a stale pre-launch heading and reconciled the Yesteryear listing against the version notes on the mobile storefront
11Overview22Hethereau is a massive, fully driveable open-world city, and vehicles are one of the primary ways to get around. Players can purchase, store, and customize a range of cars, motorcycles, and mopeds, then drive them freely through the city streets with no loading screens between on-foot and vehicular gameplay. The vehicle system is one of Neverness to Everness's standout features, setting it apart from other open-world RPGs in the gacha space where traversal is typically limited to running and gliding.44Driving in NTE is designed to feel satisfying on its own, not just as a means of getting from point A to point B. The handling model varies between vehicle types, the city is built with driving in mind (wide boulevards, highway loops, tight alley shortcuts), and the ability to commandeer NPC vehicles on the fly adds a layer of sandbox freedom that ties directly into the wanted system. The official pre-launch materials describe the roster as "numerous vehicle models for players to choose from, including regular cars, muscle cars, supercars, and motorbikes, with a high fidelity physics engine," and the full lineup keeps expanding through post-launch updates.66Vehicle Categories88The game groups its drivable vehicles into a handful of broad categories, each with its own handling feel and typical use case. The table below covers the full spread that has been shown publicly across the Containment Test, Co-Ex Test, and launch build, including the categories added later in development.1010CategoryDescriptionExamplesRegular CarsStandard sedans and compact cars for everyday city driving. Balanced handling and speed.Compact hatchbacks, three-row sedansMuscle CarsHigh-power cars with aggressive styling. Heavy feel and strong acceleration.Added during the Co-Ex TestSupercarsTop-tier performance vehicles. They hold the highest top speed and total score figures in the roster and carry the highest Fons prices to match.Pendragon, LaVeloxCoupesTwo-door vehicles, including real-world-inspired designs and original NTE models.Convertibles, sport coupesMotorcyclesSport bikes for fast, agile traversal through city streets. Crashes are much more punishing than in a car.Blizzard-V4, Novis ST-X 950Mopeds / Retro ScootersCompact two-wheelers for short commutes. Slow top speed but easy to maneuver in congested districts.Rover A1SUVs / Off-RoadRugged vehicles suited for rougher terrain outside the city center. Higher ride height, slower top speed.G3Commercial VehiclesUtility vehicles used by businesses and public services. Slow but sturdy, and useful for certain delivery missions.Vans, kei trucks, busesWatercraftAdded in Version 1.3. Summoned on open water rather than driven off a garage, and usable in ocean and lake areas.Tide1212Real-World Inspirations and In-Game Names1313Vehicles in NTE are inspired by real-world cars but use fictional in-game names. Some of the recognizable silhouettes seen in beta footage and trailers map onto the models in the table below. The names on the right are descriptive placeholders ("AE86-type", "911 Turbo-type") because the game ships under new model names by manufacturers like Regalia, Novus, and TerraX; the real-world listing is provided here purely as a recognition aid for readers who have seen the prototypes in preview coverage.1515Real-World Model (Inspiration)YearTypeToyota Sprinter Trueno (AE86)1985Sports car / coupeNissan GT-R502021SupercarPorsche 911 Turbo1981Sports carPorsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet1986Convertible sports carRover Mini Cooper1998Compact carSuzuki Jimny Sierra2019SUV / off-roadVolkswagen Jetta1984SedanMitsubishi Minicab1985Kei truck / vanHino PonchoModernBus / commercial vehicleOriginal NTE coupeFictionalOriginal design (no real-world twin)1717An in-city brand called Surpass Motors (sometimes referred to as "New Surpass Motors") also supplies retro-style scooters and sport motorbikes on top of the main Regalia, Novus, and TerraX line-ups. Additional models are planned for post-launch updates, and new roster entries appear on this page as they are added to the database.1818In-Game Roster2020Twenty named vehicles are catalogued in the roster below, covering every car, motorcycle, moped, and watercraft added to the game through Version 1.3. Each entry links to its dedicated wiki page with full stats, repair costs, customization slots, and acquisition notes.2222ImageVehicleTypeManufacturerTierPrice (Fons)Top SpeedTotal ScorePendragonCarRegaliaS10,000,000193235LaVeloxCarRegaliaS8,750,000191220Blizzard-V4MotorcycleRegaliaS2,450,000180222Griffin VolanteCarRegaliaB1,800,000170186EnforcerCarNovusA1,720,000172207GriffinCarRegaliaA1,500,000170196M1000CarNovusB350,000146171Novis ST-X 950MotorcycleRegaliaB250,000140178G3CarTerraXC240,000138163C2000CarNovusC50,000130151Rover A1MopedNone listedCReward4057Tomorrow RushMopedNone listedC30,000 (Pink Paws Den)5074B100CarNovusB20,000 (Pink Paws Den)132160K01Car (go-kart)None listedCReward99144.5ST79Car (utility)NovusB450,000155(unverified)Pursuit V8CarRegalia(unverified)4,000,000180(unverified)Porsche 918 SpyderCarPorscheSEverdriving Mystery Box (not sold)212Top-tier speed stats; collab vehicleDracoMotorcycleRegaliaSNeon Rift Mystery Box (not sold)180224SiroccoCar (off-road buggy)TerraXC4,000,00095138TideWatercraftHikari's(unverified)Lucent Tides Mystery Box (not sold)(unverified)(unverified)2424Tomorrow Rush and B100 are sold from the Pink Paws Den exchange rather than the standard manufacturer dealerships, which is why their dealer column reads Pink Paws Den even though the chassis is otherwise a normal Novus B-tier car or a Mr. David concept moped. K01 is a hobbyist go-kart with no dealership entry; it is acquired through gameplay rewards rather than direct purchase.2525ST79 is the Novus utility car with the highest cargo capacity in its price bracket, useful for heavy-duty delivery missions where damage absorption matters more than top speed. Pursuit V8 is the Regalia all-wheel-drive option that sits between the mid-tier sport cars and the supercar bracket on price; it shares the Regalia Horizon engine and transmission family with the Pendragon and the LaVelox, so its mod path follows the same Horizon lineup rather than the Novus or TerraX aftermarket parts. Both vehicles are dealership purchases (Novus for ST79, Regalia for Pursuit V8) rather than Pink Paws Den exchange entries.2727How to Obtain Vehicles2929There are four ways to put a vehicle in the player's hands. Only dealership purchases and reward unlocks produce a vehicle that can be stored in the garage and customized; the two requisition methods produce temporary rides that despawn after the session.3131MethodDescriptionDealership PurchaseBuy a vehicle from a manufacturer dealer in Hethereau using Fons. Dealerships are accessible early in the game. Purchased vehicles are stored permanently in the player's garage.Badge RequisitionWith help from Mint and the Bureau of Anomaly Control, flash the Appraiser badge to peacefully borrow any NPC's car on the street. No wanted stars are earned if the NPC complies. Not all drivers cooperate. See Vehicle Requisition for the full procedure.Forceful RequisitionAttack an NPC and take their vehicle by force. This triggers the wanted system and may lead to the Detention Center if the player gets caught.Collecting / RewardsCertain vehicles are unlocked through gameplay activities, events, pre-registration milestones, and progression rewards rather than through a purchase. The Rover A1 moped is the clearest example on the current roster.3333Purchasing and Garage3434Vehicles are purchased through dealerships and shops around the city using Fons, the city's soft currency. Prices vary widely depending on the vehicle class: a basic moped costs nothing at all while a top-end S-tier supercar like Pendragon goes for ten million Fons. All purchased vehicles are stored in the player's personal garage, which can be accessed from designated points around the city.3636Players can own multiple vehicles simultaneously and switch between them at the garage. Each vehicle retains its customization settings when stored, and the garage itself unlocks through the City Tycoon progression system. Damaged vehicles can be repaired at workshops throughout the city, with the repair bill scaling to the vehicle's tier.3838Vehicle Customization4040Garages throughout Hethereau serve as both repair and customization facilities. The system covers both visual modifications and performance tuning, so the same chassis can be styled differently, tuned differently, or both. See Vehicle Customization for the full system overview and interaction with Street Racing.4242Aesthetic Modifications4444Paint jobs and color changes, including metallic and matte finishes.Decals and custom graphics applied to specific panels.Body kits that alter the vehicle's exterior silhouette.Front and rear bumper swaps.Spoilers and other aerodynamic additions.Tires and wheels with different designs.4646Performance Upgrades4848Suspension tuning for ride height and cornering stiffness.Engine modifications for increased power output.Gearbox swaps that change shift speed and acceleration curves.Handling adjustments for tighter cornering and differential lockup.Brake balance and braking strength tuning.Tire compound choices that change wet-weather grip.5050Driving Mechanics5252NTE uses a high-fidelity physics engine where each vehicle has its own handling characteristics. The driving layer dynamically reacts to the weather, which means the same car feels different in rain and snow than on a dry road. The developers have confirmed in pre-launch interviews that driving controls and camera behavior are being iterated on through launch and post-launch patches, so small handling changes between builds are expected.5454Camera Perspectives5656Third-person driving: Default chase camera. Wide view of the road and the vehicle silhouette, which makes it easier to judge distance in traffic.First-person cockpit view: Optional interior camera with a rendered steering wheel, dashboard, and side mirrors. The sense of speed is noticeably stronger, and custom interior trim choices are visible from this view.5858Physics and Features6060FeatureDescriptionWeather EffectsRain reduces grip and increases slide distance during turns. Snow affects traction and alters drift behavior. Weather changes are dynamic and apply in real time.DriftingDedicated drifting mechanic that is central to many Street Racing events. Vehicles with higher drift ratings slide more predictably through corners.Vehicle DamageVehicles sustain visible collision damage. Tires can be popped, glass is breakable, and heavily damaged vehicles may explode. Damage affects handling, not just appearance.Driver InteractionsHorn, eject-at-speed, companion passengers with ride animations, and an adjustable in-car radio with multiple stations.NavigationSetting a destination on the map paints glowing turn arrows on the road ahead while driving.Traffic AINPC traffic with varied vehicle types creates a realistic urban flow. Street vehicles are not just set dressing; they can be requisitioned, crashed into, or used as cover.6262Commandeering NPC Vehicles6363In a direct nod to the game's open-world crime-sandbox influences, players can requisition NPC vehicles on the street. Walking up to an occupied vehicle and interacting with it attempts a takeover. The outcome depends on the NPC: some drivers willingly step out without a fight, while others resist, triggering a short forcible acquisition sequence where the player physically removes the occupant.6565Badge-flash requisitions keep the player's record clean when the NPC cooperates. Forceful requisition always raises the player's wanted level, with the exact amount of heat generated depending on the circumstances. Stealing from a passive NPC in a quiet neighborhood adds fewer stars than carjacking in front of a police patrol. Once the player is in a stolen vehicle, any reckless driving (hitting pedestrians, crashing into objects) piles on additional wanted stars. See Vehicle Requisition for the full breakdown of wanted tiers and police response.6767Vehicle-Related Activities6969Driving ties into a number of ongoing activities. Some are money-makers, others are side content, and all of them reuse the same underlying vehicle mechanics.7171ActivityDescriptionStreet RacingRace against NPC crews in different city districts or compete in multiplayer racing lobbies with other players. Drifting is a core racing feature, and several courses reward drift-heavy vehicles.Taxi DrivingPart of the Hethereau Hobbies gig economy content. Pick up passengers and deliver them across districts. Earn Fons per trip plus tips for smooth driving.Delivery MissionsSpeed-based delivery quests that reward fast and careful driving. Cargo damage reduces payout, so these runs favor stable vehicles over raw top speed.Bus DrivingOperate public buses along scheduled city routes. Pays less per minute than taxi work but stacks progression toward the hobbies system.Train DrivingDrive trains across the city's rail network on set tracks. Slower pace than the other activities and tied to the public transport progression line.7373Public Transportation7474Beyond personal vehicles, Hethereau has a full public transit system that players can use for traversal without owning a vehicle at all. These options are free or low-cost and useful for crossing the city quickly when a personal car is not nearby.7676TransportDescriptionTrain NetworkExtensive rail system connecting every district of the city. Faster than driving for cross-city trips since it bypasses traffic entirely.TramsStreet-level public transit running through urban areas. Useful for short-to-medium hops within a district.BusesPublic bus routes that players can ride as a passenger or drive themselves as part of the bus driving hobby.Ghost TrainA supernatural fast-travel option tied to the game's anomaly lore. Lets players zip across Anomaly zones to reach distant destinations quickly, separate from the normal rail network.7878Non-Vehicle Traversal7979Personal vehicles and public transit are not the only movement options. Characters have a full on-foot moveset that integrates with Esper abilities, which makes parkour and traversal its own satisfying loop.8181Standard running, sprinting, jumping, climbing, and swimming.Wall-running enabled by certain Esper abilities.Parkour across buildings and rooftops.Anti-gravity gliding, such as Nanally's Esper ability that lets her float and glide over rooftops.A regenerating stamina bar governs most special movements (running is free). Stamina recharges automatically between bursts.Seamless transitions between on-foot parkour, swimming, and driving. The player can step out of a moving car and immediately continue on foot without a loading screen.8383Tips8585Buy a cheap starter vehicle early. Even a moped or a C-tier car is far more cost-effective for exploration than waiting to afford a top-end ride.Motorcycles are faster than cars in many situations because they can weave through traffic, but a single crash at high speed is punishing. Glass repair is zero on most bikes, but explosion repair is still costly.If a requisition goes wrong and the police respond, break line of sight immediately rather than continuing to drive recklessly. Running up to three wanted stars draws drones that can destroy a vehicle in seconds.Racing rewards scale with difficulty. Harder races against faster opponents pay out more Fons, so saving for a higher-tier vehicle snowballs quickly once the player can win mid-bracket events.Customization is both cosmetic and functional. Performance tuning (suspension, engine, brake balance, tire compound) noticeably changes how a specific vehicle behaves, especially on rain-slick or snowy roads.The train network is faster than driving for cross-city trips because it ignores traffic entirely. Save personal vehicles for in-district errands, drifting runs, and bounce-around exploration.8787Pre-Launch Note88+Sourcing Note8989Neverness to Everness launched globally on April 29, 2026. Parts of this page were first written from the Containment Test and Co-Ex Test builds, and the roster has grown with every version since: Draco in Version 1.2, then the Sirocco and the Tide watercraft in Version 1.3. Handling, driving UI, and camera behavior have all been revised post-launch, so treat any figure carried over from a beta build as the weaker of two sources when it disagrees with the live game.9191Purchasing at Local Dealerships9393Both cars and motorcycles are purchased at local dealerships scattered across the city. Each dealership specializes in a slice of the roster, so finding the right storefront is part of shopping around for a chassis that fits the current budget and the kind of driving the player wants to do. Dealerships are marked on the city map and open early in the game, which means a starter vehicle is reachable before most combat and commission content becomes relevant.9595Summoning with the Key Fob9797A key fob lives on the player's hotbar as a standing shortcut. Pressing it summons the vehicle that best fits the current terrain. On normal city streets and highways the fob drops the bound car next to the player, while narrower areas where a full-size car cannot fit spawn a smaller two-wheeler such as a scooter or a bike instead. The fob is the fastest way to recover from getting stranded on foot, because it does not depend on walking back to a parked ride.9999The vehicle summoned by the fob can be swapped, so any garage entry can be elevated to the default summon once it is owned. A common mid-game preference is to bind the Enforcer to the fob because it is one of the faster cars available in the beta, which turns the key fob into a dependable way to get around at pace.101101Keyboard vs Controller Handling103103Driving input matters a lot for how the cars feel. On keyboard, turning is binary and the steering response has a stiff, unresponsive character: small corrections are hard to dial in and the car often feels like it is fighting the player mid-corner. On controller, the same chassis steers noticeably smoother because an analog stick can feed in partial inputs, which is what the handling model was tuned around. Players who find the car hard to control on keyboard usually find the same car much more forgiving after switching to a gamepad.105105Driving physics were overhauled between betas. The prior beta's cars turned from the middle of the chassis, which made cornering feel floaty and slightly unrealistic. The current beta's cars turn more like real vehicles: the front wheels steer, the rear follows, and weight transfer reacts to throttle and brake inputs. The overall feel is a clear improvement, but it still takes practice to adjust to the new tuning, and drifting in particular requires time to get used to because slide recovery is now more input-sensitive than it was previously.107107InputHandling FeelNoteKeyboardBinary steering, stiff and unresponsive in cornersSmall corrections are hard to dial in; acceptable for straight-line cruising, rough for tight coursesControllerAnalog steering, noticeably smoother corneringMatches the handling model that was tuned for analog input; recommended for drifting and racing109109Weather and Tire Grip110110The weather layer feeds directly into driving performance. Rain reduces grip on the road surface, and a car that does not have enough grip to start with will spin out through corners that would be routine on a dry road. Stock tires on lower-tier cars are the most vulnerable to this, and the effect compounds at speed: the faster the car is going when a corner begins, the more a wet surface magnifies any loss of traction.112112Upgrading tires is the direct fix. Tire compound choices under Performance Upgrades change how a chassis holds the road in the specific conditions it is most often driven in, so the same vehicle can be built to feel predictable on rainy city streets, dry highway loops, or rougher terrain at the city edges. Matching tires to the expected road type keeps the car planted when the weather turns and removes the spin-out risk that unupgraded tires introduce on a wet surface.114114WeatherEffect on DrivingMitigationDryBaseline grip; handling feels as tuned for each chassisStock tires are fine for most routesRainReduced grip; unupgraded cars spin out on cornersUpgrade tire compound at a workshop; slow entry speeds through turns until the weather clearsRough Terrain Edges of the CityStock road tires lose grip on dirt or uneven surfacesUse an off-road-tuned vehicle or fit tires suited to that terrain before leaving paved roads116116Jumping Out of Moving Vehicles117117Vehicles can be abandoned mid-drive. Triggering the exit command while the car is moving launches the player out of the seat; the character takes fall damage from the impact but does not die from a normal-speed ejection. The vehicle itself keeps rolling with no driver until it comes to a stop on its own, either because it coasts to zero velocity on a flat road or because it hits something. This is useful for quick-dismount situations: ditching a car at the edge of a combat encounter, bailing out just before a bad landing on uneven terrain, or repositioning while the ride covers the last stretch on its own.119119Shotgun Passengers and Bond Level121121Characters with a high enough bond through the Affinity System can ride shotgun in the player's car. Once the bond gate is met, the passenger sits in the empty seat during drives and talks to the player while the car is in motion. The chatter depends on the companion and on what the car is doing at the time. Nanally, for example, reacts positively to high-speed driving: fast runs through city streets produce a different response from her than slow cruising, which makes the shotgun slot a way to hear extra character voice lines beyond what the bond quests unlock on foot.123123Scooter Tutorial Unlock125125The scooter is handed out during the early tutorial in the current beta, rather than locked behind a mall purchase as it was in the prior beta. This means a small two-wheeler is in the player's garage before the open city fully opens up. The scooter keeps being useful well past the tutorial because its small footprint lets it slip through enemy camps and across rough terrain that would stop a full-size car, so it earns its hotbar slot even after a faster chassis has been bought at a dealership.127127Vehicle Skins From the Gacha Board129129Vehicle skins are distributed as rewards on the character gacha board. The character pull uses a board-game layout where every roll moves an avatar across tiles, and the tiles on the outer path of that board include cosmetic rewards alongside the mainline featured-character tiles. A portion of those outer-path tiles award vehicle skins when landed on, which means that pulling for a featured character can incidentally hand out a cosmetic set for an owned vehicle. Skins only change the vehicle's appearance, so the handling numbers on a chassis stay identical regardless of which skin is currently applied.131131Enforcer as a Hotbar Pick133133The Enforcer is one of the faster cars available in the current beta roster, and it is an on-hand pick for the vehicle bound to the key fob once the player owns one. Binding a fast car to the fob turns the summon shortcut into a practical fast-transport option for longer cross-city trips where the scooter or a starter car would be too slow. Players who prefer bikes can bind a motorcycle to the fob for the same reason; the point is that the fob always summons whatever the player has elected as their default, and the Enforcer is a common default in the current build because its top speed is among the best on the cars tier list.135135Other Activities Accessible by Car137137Several city activities are reached by driving between their start points, which gives the vehicle roster an extra role as a traversal layer between content. The Pink Paws Heist bank runs start at a designated city location that is easiest to reach by car, and non-progression heist runs do not cost city stamina, so there is no daily reason to avoid driving to them. Street Racing events and Taxi Driver gigs reuse the same driving layer as regular exploration, which means improvements to handling from tire upgrades and fob-bound fast cars pay off directly in those activities as well.139139Quick Reference: New Driving Facts141141Cars and motorcycles are purchased at local dealerships.A hotbar key fob summons a terrain-appropriate vehicle.Keyboard input feels stiff; controller input feels smooth.Driving physics were overhauled between betas; cars now steer from the front wheels instead of the middle of the chassis.Drifting still takes practice after the physics overhaul.Rain reduces grip; unupgraded tires cause spin-outs in the wet.Jumping out of a moving car deals damage but does not kill.A jumped-out car keeps rolling until it stops on its own.High-bond companions can ride shotgun and talk during drives; Nanally reacts positively to high-speed driving.The scooter is unlocked during the early tutorial in the current beta.Vehicle skins drop from outer-path tiles on the character gacha board.The Enforcer is a fast car and a common pick for the key-fob default summon.143143Buyer Priority Guide145145With over a dozen cars, motorcycles, and mopeds in the dealership lineup, every Fons spent on the wrong chassis is fewer Fons left for housing, customization, or character pulls. Community testing across the latest beta points to a short list of high-value purchases and one expensive trap car that underperforms cheaper rides even after maxing every Vehicle Customization slot. The table and notes below summarize the recommended buying order so first-run players can clear Street Racing content without pouring savings into a chassis that cannot keep pace.147147Race courses in the current build come in two broad flavors: drift-favored layouts where slide angle through corners decides the lap, and grip-favored layouts where holding the racing line at speed is what wins. The headline takeaway from community testing is that the right chassis paired with the right performance tuning at a workshop can bridge both. A single 1.5 million Fons high-performance two-door coupe, modded with the right suspension, gearbox, and tire compound choices, has been shown to clear drift-heavy and grip-heavy courses without swapping vehicles between events. Players do not need a separate dedicated drift car for the racing campaign; they need one well-modded grand-tourer-class chassis.149149The Porsche Collaboration car has since landed, and it is not a Fons purchase at all: the Porsche 918 Spyder comes out of the Everdriving Mystery Box, and a June 10, 2026 client update added two free mod-shop parts for it. That removes the main reason players used to hold a large Fons buffer in reserve. The 4 million Fons high-end bracket is still the weakest bracket for raw performance per Fons, and the Sirocco sits in exactly that bracket, so buy it for the dunes and coastline it is built for rather than for lap times. Fons left over once the must-buy chassis are owned is better spent on housing or Beetle Coins investments.151151PriorityVehicle Tier / PriceRecommendationNotesHigh (buy first)C2000 (50,000 Fons, Novus C-tier sedan)Buy as the starter chassis. Fully mod it.Community testing reports that a fully-modded C2000 stays competitive in races against vehicles costing many times more, including against fully-modded entries from the 4 million Fons price bracket. It is the cheapest practical race-ready car in the dealer lineup and a lock-in first purchase.High (race workhorse)Griffin (1,500,000 Fons, Regalia A-tier coupe)Save up after the C2000 and buy the 1.5 million Fons two-door coupe widely recommended by the community.After modding for suspension, gearbox, and tire compound, this chassis handles both drift-favored and grip-favored race courses without a swap. Multiple players report sub-1:30 lap times on standard race circuits with the unmodded 1.5 million Fons coupe and faster runs once it is fully tuned. There is also a soft-top variant in the same coupe family at a similar price; community advice is that the hard-top variant is the one to prioritize because it is the one that accepts a Joen-themed cosmetic skin, and handling between the two is otherwise indistinguishable.Medium (optional convenience)Novis ST-X 950 (250,000 Fons, Regalia B-tier motorcycle)Pick up only if a fast two-wheeler is wanted for traversal.A clear upgrade over the tutorial-issued retro scooter and a useful fast-travel tool because bikes can be summoned in tighter spaces than full-size cars. Not required for the racing campaign: several races mandate a four-wheeled vehicle, and the C2000-plus-Griffin pair already covers those. Players who already own a K01 go-kart from gameplay rewards can skip the bike outright.Low (avoid until collection phase)Pursuit V8 (4,000,000 Fons, Regalia high-end car)Do not buy as a race car. Save Fons for the upcoming Porsche collaboration vehicle instead.Community testing reports that this 4 million Fons chassis underperforms the fully-modded 50,000 Fons C2000 in race conditions and does not turn well even after every customization slot is filled. Co-op race footage circulating in the community shows fully-modded 4 million Fons-class cars losing to modded C2000s and to the AE86-style drift coupe (the 600,000 Fons drift specialist sold at base). Treat this purchase as a collection or roleplay item only, well after the Griffin and any genuine race needs are settled.Low (avoid until collection phase)Higher-priced sibling chassis at the 4 million-plus Fons tierSkip alongside the Pursuit V8 unless completing the dealership lineup.Community testing places this even pricier sibling in the same bucket as the Pursuit V8: poor turning, sluggish corner exit even after a full mod pass, and worse race-pace than chassis costing a fraction of the price. Players are advised to avoid the entire 4 million-plus Fons high-end-car tier for race purposes and direct that budget elsewhere.Optional (fun pick)AE86-style drift coupe (around 600,000 Fons base price)Buy purely for fun if drift handling is the goal. Not required.A 1980s rear-wheel-drive coupe homage that excels at the drift-favored courses where slide angle is rewarded. Some race events with grip-heavy layouts are awkward for it, which is part of why the 1.5 million Fons coupe stays the safer single-chassis race answer. Treat this as a roleplay or collection item rather than a campaign requirement.High (when launched)Porsche Collaboration 918-class vehicle (price not yet announced)Hold a Fons buffer in reserve for the launch of this collaboration.A 918-class collaboration vehicle has been teased for a future patch. Release date and exact in-game cost have not been confirmed yet, so the buffer recommendation is by deliberate margin rather than a fixed Fons amount. Players who already own the C2000 and the 1.5 million Fons coupe and have cleared the racing campaign are in the safest position to redirect surplus Fons toward the collaboration drop, instead of sinking it into the Pursuit V8 bracket.Optional (collection)Mini Cooper-style compact, Hummer-class SUV, retro scooters, and other novelty entriesBuy as collection or roleplay items only.Compact city-runabouts, larger off-road SUVs, and other novelty chassis in the dealership lineup are not race-competitive and are not required for any progression milestone. Players completing the full garage roster can pick them up after every higher-priority slot above is settled. The flame trail effect on full-size motorcycles, unlocked through the Headless Biker encounter and a Hathor-equipped Raging Flames Arc, applies as a cosmetic on top of any owned bike rather than as a separate purchase.153153None of the priorities above forces a particular acquisition method. Vehicle Requisition lets players borrow or commandeer NPC vehicles for short stints without paying any Fons, which can cover one-off errands while the player is saving for the next purchase on the priority list. Garage-stored, modded vehicles still win every race scenario, so requisition is best treated as a stopgap for traversal between the C2000 starter purchase and the 1.5 million Fons coupe milestone, not as a permanent substitute.154154Headless Biker Anomaly and Motorcycle Flame Effect156156One of the open-world anomalies on Hethereau's streets is the Headless Biker. Triggering the encounter rewards a copy of the Raging Flames Arc and unlocks an unusual cosmetic interaction: motorcycles spawned by certain characters can run with a permanent flame trail on the wheels and exhaust.158158Spawn Conditions160160Set the in-game time to about 10:00 PM. The biker only roams at night.Drive a car to the marked street. The cinematic that starts the chase has the player driving up in a four-wheeled vehicle, so arriving on a motorcycle does not register as a trigger.Pursue and defeat the biker. Bureau agents join in if the fight runs long, so even players who are slightly under-leveled can finish the encounter.162162After the encounter, the Raging Flames Arc lands in the player's inventory. The Arc itself is documented on the Raging Flames page along with refinement and ascension data.164164Igniting Motorcycles with Raging Flames166166To run motorcycles with the flame trail effect, equip Raging Flames on a Lakshana character such as Hathor or Nanally, take that character on field, and summon any motorcycle other than the Rover A1 scooter. The effect persists for the duration of the ride and turns off again the moment the carrier is no longer the active character. Players who do not own Hathor can equip the Arc on Nanally or another Lakshana character with a comparable kit slot to enable the cosmetic, even though the Arc's stats are tuned around Hathor's Skill rotation.168168Mopeds and short scooters in the lowest tier are excluded. The flame effect is targeted at full-size motorcycles like the Blizzard-V4 and Novis ST-X 950, which is why community guides usually frame the unlock around the Blizzard-V4 garage purchase rather than the tutorial scooter.170170Draco (Version 1.2)172172Draco is a limited vehicle added in Version 1.2 "999 Nights" on July 8, 2026. It is obtained from the Neon Rift Mystery Box event, which runs from July 8 to August 19, 2026 and unlocks its full reward pool after all 15 boxes are opened. Community coverage describes Draco as able to carry Shinku as a passenger, with a special visual effect tied to one of her outfits.174174Sirocco (Version 1.3)176176The Sirocco is an off-road buggy added on August 19, 2026 with Version 1.3 "Rising from the Moonlit Fog". It is a permanent dealership purchase rather than an event vehicle: Fons x4,000,000 at the TerraX dealership, the same brand that sells the G3. Its pitch is the coastline, and it arrived alongside the Duskmoor location and its beaches.178178AttributeValueTypeCar, off-road buggyManufacturerTerraXTierC, total score 138PriceFons x4,000,000, permanent stockTop speed rating95, a C gradeStrengthsShift speed and ride height both grade S, and braking grades S, which is what makes it hold a line over sand and broken ground.WeaknessesTop speed is the weakest of any four-figure-tier car in the roster, and drift grades B.

See Vehicle Customization.180180Tide (Version 1.3)181181The Tide is the first watercraft in the game, added on August 19, 2026 with Version 1.3. It is summoned in ocean and lake areas rather than driven out of a garage, which makes the open water around Duskmoor and Tearlake traversable for the first time. It is described in-game as a signature build by Hikari.183183The Tide is not a dealership purchase and it is not a free unlock. It comes out of the "Lucent Tides" Mystery Box event, which opened on August 19, 2026 at 17:00 (UTC+8) and runs to September 30 at 05:59 (UTC+8). Boxes are opened with Fons or Annulith at a cost that rises with each box, there are fifteen boxes in total, and opening all fifteen unlocks the whole reward pool. The same pool holds several limited outfits and the "Endless Summer" avatar frame, so the Tide is one prize among many rather than a guaranteed first pull. Repair pricing is the usual pair: 1,000 Fons for tires and 4,250 Fons after an explosion.185185A second Version 1.3 vehicle, a two-person bicycle named Yesteryear, was shown on the preview broadcast for the September 9 phase. It has not shipped, and its manufacturer, price, and acquisition route have not been published, so it is listed here as announced rather than added to the roster table above.186+A second Version 1.3 vehicle, a two-person bicycle named Yesteryear, was shown on the preview broadcast for the September 9 phase. The version notes published on the mobile storefront list it in the Version 1.3 vehicle summary alongside the Tide jet ski and the Sirocco beach buggy, but the Version 1.3 patch notes themselves only detail Tide and Sirocco, and its manufacturer, price, and acquisition route were still unpublished as of September 7, 2026. It is listed here as announced rather than added to the roster table above until an acquisition route is published.
