Big Ambitions All Cars & Vehicles List: Prices and Cargo
Vehicles in Big Ambitions do two jobs that pull in opposite directions: hauling stock, and looking expensive enough to satisfy the achievements and your own happiness. Almost nothing does both.
The Three Dealerships
| Dealership | Specialises in |
|---|---|
| City Cars | Low to mid-range vehicles for day-to-day use |
| General US Trucks | Cargo vehicles for warehouse work |
| Manhattan Luxury Cars | Luxury vehicles |
Ambulances, patrol cars and taxis exist in the world but are not purchasable.
Full Vehicle List
Cargo is the number that matters for business; top speed and price are what matter for everything else.
| Vehicle | Cargo | Tank | Auto-park | Top speed | Price | Dealer |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Freight Truck T1 | 60 | 378 | No | 50 | $98,000 | General US Trucks |
| Vord Courier D500 | 40 | 250 | No | 60 | $72,500 | General US Trucks |
| Mersaidi Dash | 24 | 185 | No | 65 | $48,500 | General US Trucks |
| Vord V150 | 20 | 118 | No | 80 | $44,000 | City Cars |
| UMC Nunavut | 18 | 110 | Yes | 80 | $65,000 | Manhattan Luxury Cars |
| Vord Tiara Vic | 12 | 72 | No | 70 | $11,000 | City Cars |
| BIMA 320 | 10 | 57 | No | 70 | $48,000 | Manhattan Luxury Cars |
| Honza Mimic | 8 | 55 | No | 60 | $2,500 | City Cars |
| Lytte L6 | 8 | 80 | Yes | 80 | $156,000 | Manhattan Luxury Cars |
| Mersaidi S500 | 8 | 80 | Yes | 80 | $95,000 | Manhattan Luxury Cars |
| Petrolls Fanton | 8 | 80 | Yes | 80 | $720,000 | Manhattan Luxury Cars |
| Vord Pony | 5 | 72 | No | 80 | $187,000 | Manhattan Luxury Cars |
| Mersaidi MGA GT | 5 | 66 | Yes | 100 | $220,000 | Manhattan Luxury Cars |
| Anselmo AF90 | 3 | 68 | Yes | 100 | $520,000 | Manhattan Luxury Cars |
| Ferdinand 112 | 3 | 77 | No | 90 | $130,000 | Manhattan Luxury Cars |
Two things jump out of that table. The Honza Mimic at $2,500 carries 8 cargo — more than a $520,000 Anselmo. And the Mersaidi Dash at $48,500 carries 24, which makes it the sensible mid-game delivery vehicle rather than a luxury purchase.
A note on sourcing: this table comes from the community wiki’s own vehicle stats, which still carries a couple of untranslated entries and an inconsistent name for the Freight Truck. Prices may have moved across patches, so treat them as a guide to relative cost rather than a live quote.
Delivery Reach per Vehicle
For warehouse work a second number matters as much as cargo: how many stores one vehicle can deliver to. That depends on the vehicle class and on your logistics manager’s skill. The community wiki and the BiggerAmbitions fan database agree on the tiers, and a developer forum reply confirms the truck and van maximums.
| Vehicle | Destinations at low skill | At 100% logistics skill | Driver skill needed |
|---|---|---|---|
| Freight Truck T1 | 4 | 8 | 95% |
| Vord Courier D500 | 3 | 6 | 75% |
| Mersaidi Dash, Vord V150, UMC Nunavut, UMC Desert | 2 | 4 | 50% |
| Every other vehicle | 1 | 2 | — |
The UMC Desert (14 cargo, 140 tank, top speed 50) appears in the fan database and the wiki’s logistics table but not in the wiki’s dealership list, so we have left it out of the price table above. Driver skill percentages are community figures. How the manager side of that equation works is in logistics manager.
Auto-Park
Only five vehicles support auto-park: the UMC Nunavut, Lytte L6, Mersaidi S500, Petrolls Fanton, Mersaidi MGA GT and Anselmo AF90 — all from Manhattan Luxury Cars. If you spend a lot of in-game time driving between businesses, this is a genuine quality-of-life feature rather than a status flourish.
The 1.0 Private Driver
The 1.0 release added a private driver, which changes the calculus for anyone who was buying luxury cars purely to move around faster. Set up a contract with Onyx Luxury Chauffeurs, leave a vehicle in their garage, and you can summon a driver whenever you need a ride. Any vehicle works — Uncle Fred’s cheap Honza is explicitly called out as valid — and there is an Onyx-exclusive limo if you want the full package.
Practical implication: you no longer need a fast car to save time. You need a car and a contract.
Vehicle Repair and Achievements
Vehicles need repairs, and there is an achievement chain for it: Mechanic Paradise at $10,000 (bronze) and $50,000 (silver) spent on repairing vehicles. Two other chains push you up the price ladder — Mad Whip for owning a car worth at least $15,000, $90,000 and $120,000, and Carpark for owning two vehicles.
Read those thresholds against the price table above: a $130,000 Ferdinand 112 clears every Mad Whip tier for a quarter of what an Anselmo costs.
Boats
Boats exist as a separate category, with the SeaKing 8000 and Blue Yachts OG appearing in the game’s world. Relaxing on a boat is one of the documented happiness activities, and 1.0’s Hamptons gated communities include private docks. If you are searching for where to buy boats, it is a lifestyle purchase rather than a business one.
What to Actually Buy
- First vehicle: Honza Mimic, $2,500, 8 cargo. It is the tutorial car for a reason.
- First delivery vehicle: Mersaidi Dash, $48,500, 24 cargo — or the Vord V150 at $44,000 if 20 cargo is enough and you want more speed.
- Scaling deliveries: Freight Truck T1 at 60 cargo. Remember your warehouse’s vehicle capacity caps how many can run at once — see warehouse and deliveries.
- Status and achievements: Ferdinand 112 clears the top Mad Whip tier at $130,000.
