The Best Vehicles in Watch Dogs

There’s pretty much no point in Aiden Pearce being able to control the entire city of Chicago’s infrastructure if he has to walk, or even worse use public transport to traverse it. Luckily for us there are numerous vehicles in Ubisoft’s Watch Dogs, which allow you to travel across both land and water with relative ease.

Vehicles can be obtained in a variety of ways ranging from ordering them through the “Car On Demand” in game app on your smartphone all the way to the classic tried and tested method of stealing them from the closest civilian. Another good tip is to steal parked cars over ones that are being driven, as that will decrease the chances of a police chase. One of the best methods for securing some of the faster and more rare vehicles for free is to steal them directly from a showroom by driving through the glass windows. Don’t worry, you’ll be on the other side of the city by the time the cops notice.



But what are these fast and rare vehicles I hear you ask, well the vehicles come in many shapes and sizes, ranging from muscle cars to motorcycles and even the occasional Spider Tank. Follow on to find out all of the games vehicles and the best ones in each of the categories.

Sports Car

Although their top speeds leave a little to be desired, the handling more than makes up for this shortcoming, especially in a chase scenario. The best Sports cars are the Zusume R, Carrozza and Sunrim.

• Core-T 
• Kirscher
• Zusume R
• Luciano
• Rotor
• Carrozza
• Sunrim
