Summary

Far Cry 6takes place in the sprawling island country of Yara. Emphasis on the word ‘sprawling.’ Traversal is unarguably one of the most time-consuming obstacles players will face when playingFar Cry 6. Players eventually have the choice to fast-travel or use their wingsuit to get to where they need to go, but finding a good way to ride around Yara is vital to experiencing its beauty.

Deciding which vehicle to use can be overwhelming.Far Cry 6has an enormous variety of vehicles to choose from, and which vehicle best suits a player’s playstyle may differ from person to person, but it wouldn’t be a modernFar Crygame if you couldn’t fly around causing havoc in a helicopter.

The 1968 Garin Vorona CT in Far Cry 6 comes with mounted machine guns and a bulletproof windshield

Updated on April 27th, 2024, by Jeff Drake:Vehicles play an incredibly important role in open-world games. They are not merely a means of conveyance; the right vehicle can make an almost impossible mission easy, allow the player to zip around the map, or provide weapons that are otherwise unusable by a human - like a tank cannon. Vehicles also let players make a statement to other players if the game is multiplayer, or can help round out the virtaul personality of a customized character. The list below has been expanded with this update, giving even more options to players looking for the best vehicular ways to get around Yara in Far Cry 6.

231968 Garin Varona CT

A Flying Tank

The1968 Garin Varona CTis basically a flying tank. It can lay waste to the region, and take a serious amount of damage before it’s rendered unusable. This variant of the Varona comes equipped with a bulletproof windshield and a mounted machine gun for some added toughness.

This vehicle suits nearly every need due to its ruggedness, powerful weapons, and the ability to take off and land vertically. Being able to fly to a destination also greatly shortens travel time. Getting this helicopter requires causing mayhem in urban areas; a tank is the best vehicle for this job. When a 1968 Garin Varona CT arrives to deal with the mayhem, use an EMP weapon to force it to land.

The ALHV-2 hovercraft in Far Cry 6

22ALHV-2

Capable Of Travelling On Land Or Sea

This tactically useful forced-air hovercraft is capable of traveling over land and sea equally well. Hovercraft have their uses, but in general they try to do too much and wind up being not as good as either a car or a boat. The fact this vehicle can go from sea to land seamlessly, and perform well on both, helps execute missions in difficult to reach areas.

TheALHV-2also has the benefit of two forward-facing mounted machine guns. This lets the player clear the path when in enemy territory, or while making a hasty getaway. These vehicles will spawn around guerrilla hideouts and similar locations.

The sturdy Jengo Warden off-road vehicle in Far Cry 6

211963 Hard Top Jengo Warden

There are miles and miles of roads inFar Cry 6. The game is played on a tropical island dominated by lush jungles and impassible terrain. Areas like this are perfect for theJengo Warden, which is essentially a type of jeep. This vehicle performs well on paved surfaces, but unlike many land vehicles, the Warden performs well off-road as well.

This variant comes with a turret mounted machine gun behind the driver. This works better with a passenger, but provides a powerful weapon should the driver need to stop and defend themselves. It’s not exactly a sports car, but a sports car isn’t designed to go off-road either.

Using the Wingsuit to fly around Yara in Far Cry 6

20Wingsuit

Glide Quietly To A Destination

Most seasonedFar Cry 6players will tell beginners that thebest method of travel inFar Cry 6is tofast travel to an areavia aerial drop points, then use theWingsuitto fly to the destination before deploying the parachute. This is not only faster but gives the player a bird’s eye view of the destination.

The only thing to keep in mind is that the player is extremely vulnerable when flying in the wingsuit. The smallest collision is typically fatal. Just be sure to pop the parachute when the trees start getting close.

The Aquablast Water Foul is a jet ski with mounted machineguns in Far Cry 6

191998 Sokudo Aquablast Water Foul

A Jetski With Mounted Machine Guns

When traveling over water, there are few vehicles better than the jet ski, or boatercycle. They are the fastest water vehicle in the game, and handle surprisingly well - for a watercraft, anyway. The drawbacks to the jet ski are they are only built for one person, and they can’t take much damage before being disabled.

TheAquablast Water Foulis a standard jet ski butwith twin-mounted light machine guns. The blazing speed, maneuverability, small size, and built-in weaponry make this the go-to combat water vehicle; the only exception being the Salacia RHIB Z-600.

Pure Muscle is a Pygmalion SSR variant in Far Cry 6

18Pure Muscle

Get Around Yara In A Classic Muscle Car

For players ofFar Cry 5, one of the more favored vehicles wasthe Pygmalion SSR. This car was clearly inspired by the muscle cars of the 1970s; specifically, the Pontiac Trans Am. This vehicle was built for speed, handles well, and has enough power to push through roadblocks.

Pure Muscleis only available with the purchase of the Bad BoyBilly Bundle. This is also about the only reason to buy the Bad Boy Billy Bundle, unless players really, really, want their character to be dressed like a pool lifeguard.

Mountaineer 4x4 Turbo truck in Far Cry 6

171988 Sokudo Mountaineer 4x4 Turbo

Great On Any Terrain

“My little mule, Pepe”. Staying on the road is not always an option in open-world games - at least not ones that involve combat likeFar Cry 6. High-speed chases (or getaways) can frequently go off-road. For times like that, players will wantsomething that can handle the rough terrainwith the ease with which most cars travel on a paved road.

There are many off-road vehicles inFar Cry 6; though, many of those vehicles are designed specifically foroff-road drivingand are not able to outperform regular cars while on a road. TheMountaineer 4x4 Turbois equally versatile off-road or on.

Street Samurai from the Yarapunk Bundle for Far Cry 6

16Yarapunk Street Samurai

Quick And Nimble Street Racer

So many vehicles inFar Cry 6are vintage autos. There’s nothing wrong with that, but sometimes a player wants to drive something a little sleeker than a sedan from circa 1957. Those players should get theYarapunk Street Samurai. This is perhapsthe most modern-looking car in the gameand is one of the best-performing cars available.

Unfortunately, the Street Samurai is not part of the base game. This car is included in the Yarapunk Bundle.DLC, and one of the main reasons to purchase this DLC package.

Far Cry 6 Zerba Mount walking on dirt path

15Mogote Zebra

An Exotic Zebra Mount

TheMogote Zebramay not be the fastest or toughest vehicle choice, but who doesn’t want to ride around on an exotic animal? There are no offensive or defensive perks to the Zebra, but players can use a sidearm gun or melee weapon while riding, so that’s at least a plus.

The Mogote Zebra isone of the horsevariants available in the game and can be obtained during story progression, specifically upon finishingBreak the Chains mission. The Mogote Zebra is one ofAnton Castillo’sprized possessions, so stealing it for personal use may bring some enjoyment.

Far Cry 6 Croco Taxi vehicle with Dani

14Croco Taxi

Not Fast Or Rugged, Just Cool

TheCroco Taxiis one of the sillier vehicles inFar Cry 6. What the Croco Taxi lacks in speed and overall usefulness, it makes up for in brilliance. It’s a giant crocodile head. And a small taxi. There isn’t much more to be said about how cool this vehicle is, but it is amusingly unique.

Players can find the Croco Taxi at a few different locations around the map, sometimes around thecoasts of Esperanza.
