"The skycar...its fast and agile, but God help it if it so much as clips an object. Bloody thing is built like its made of rivets."
— Human engineer.

The Skycar, known by its factory placeholder X3M, and alternatively called the Aircar, is a contragravity speeder designed for transporting individuals through metropolises and space stations, and serves as the replacement to the conventional car. Invented by the asari to navigate Thessia decades before the Thessian Republics were established, the vehicle is specifically designed in such a way that it only operates efficiently within an atmosphere, and cannot be used exoatmospherically. The vehicle is of a simple design, and measures such as speed, lift, contents and load bear change depending on the design of the skycar. Even during the Galactic Dominion, the skycar remains the transportation of choice for the 22nd and 23rd century galactic world.
