As mentioned earlier, there are a total of ten personal vehicles in the game. Most of these rides are attached to the main story mission of Borderlands 4, while others require achieving specific levels with different Vault Hunters.

The first six vehicles listed in the table are tied directly to the main storyline, so unlocking them is relatively straightforward. However, the real challenge lies in obtaining the last four, which requires reaching the maximum level (level 50) with each of the Vault Hunters: Vex, Harlowe, Amon, and Rafa. This goal demands a significant investment of time and effort.

In addition to obtaining rides to move across Kairos, unlocking all of the personal vehicles in the game will help you get the Catch-a-Ride Achievement, bringing you one step closer to a completionist run.

That was all about the personal vehicles and their unlock methods in Borderlands 4.
