A Vehicle (from Latin: vehiculum) is a mobile machine that transports passengers or cargo. Most often, vehicles are manufactured, such as bicycles, cars, trucks, buses, motorcycles, trains, ships, boats and aircraft. Vehicles that do not travel on land include watercraft, aircraft, and spacecraft. Land vehicles are classified broadly by what is used to apply steering and drive forces against the ground: wheeled, tracked, railed or skied.
In LEGO City Undercover[]
Vehicles are unlocked much like character disguises. While a few vehicles are unlocked automatically over the course of Story mode, most must be earned by collecting the many vehicle tokens scattered across LEGO City and hidden in the 15 Special Assignments. Each Special Assignment has two vehicle tokens for Chase McCain to track down.
Like character tokens, McCain must visit the LEGO City Police Station and spend Studs to purchase vehicles whose tokens he has collected. Also, like character disguises, every vehicle belongs to a specific category. However, the only noteworthy difference between the vehicle categories is that most emergency vehicles have sirens that cause traffic to move out of the way. In addition, most emergency and performance vehicles have Nitrous, while most vehicles in other categories don't. The red brick Nitrous For All enables Nitrous for every vehicle, excluding the Grounddog, a Bikes Class vehicle resembling a skateboard.
Ordering vehicles[]
Ordering vehicles could not be easier. After purchasing one, simply visit any Call-In Point and order it up for immediate delivery. Note that Aircraft can only be ordered at Helipads.
Certain points must be reached in Story mode before vehicle call-in points and helipads are available. Though McCain can use boats docked around LEGO City, he is unable to purchase them for on-demand delivery.
