REPO’s Cosmetics Update has added vehicles to the game, giving players a much faster way to move around dangerous maps. The new Semiscooters completely change how runs feel, especially for teams trying to move loot quickly or recover after getting separated. There are currently two vehicles available, the Scout and the Hauler.

The Scout usually costs between 18K and 24K, while the Hauler costs around 38K to 48K, depending on the shop rotation. Both vehicles let players move around maps much faster than normal, but they rely on battery power and can be destroyed if they take too much damage in REPO.

R.E.P.O. - Best Upgrades, Ranked

Players trying to decide on the best upgrades in R.E.P.O. will want to prioritize the following choices.

How to Get and Use the Scout in REPO

How to Get & Use Scout in REPO

The Scout can appear in the Shop during any run, although its spawn is completely random like other equipment and upgrades. It usually costs between 18K and 24K, making it the cheaper of the two vehicles currently available in REPO.

Once purchased, the Scout can be driven immediately and is mainly designed for speed and mobility. It does not include any storage space for valuables, so its purpose is focused entirely on movement. It’s most commonly used to scout dangerous rooms, search for extraction routes, distract monsters, or quickly travel between loot locations.

The Scout performs best on maps with long hallways or open areas where its speed advantage really matters.

You can use the Scout to lure monsters away from teammates collecting valuables.

How to Get and Use the Hauler in REPO

How to Get and Use the Hauler in REPO

The Hauler is also purchased through the Shop, but it is far more expensive than the Scout. Its price usually ranges between 38K and 48K, so most teams will need to save money across multiple successful extractions before buying one.

Unlike the Scout, the Hauler includes a rear cargo compartment that can store small valuables worth up to 20K total. Items can simply be dropped into the storage area. This way, teams can safely transport loot without carrying everything by hand. Once loaded, the Hauler itself can be pushed directly into the extractor, making extractions much safer during chaotic runs.

The Hauler is generally the better long-term investment for teams focused on completing quotas efficiently. If your team already has enough carts, the Hauler can completely change how safely you transport valuables across dangerous maps.

How to Repair and Recharge Vehicles in REPO

How to Repair and Recharge Vehicles in REPO

Vehicles in REPO are really fragile. Crashing into walls, falling into pits, running through hazards, or colliding with monsters drains battery power and damages the scooter. The Hauler has more health than the Scout, but both can eventually explode if their HP reaches zero. When a vehicle is close to destruction, there is a short delay before it detonates and deals massive damage nearby.

Vehicles can be repaired and recharged inside the truck using the upgraded charging station powered by Energy Crystals.

If you plan on using scooters regularly, make sure you keep extra crystals on hand, especially during longer runs.

FAQs

Can vehicles fly over pits in REPO?

No. Despite how fast they move, both the Scout and Hauler fall into pits like normal objects.

Which vehicle is better in REPO?

The Hauler is usually more useful because it stores valuables and has higher durability, while the Scout is better for speed and scouting.

Can vehicles damage monsters?

Yes, but mostly smaller enemies. Using boost increases collision damage, although larger monsters are still dangerous to ram.

How do you recharge vehicles?

Vehicles can be repaired and recharged at the charging station inside the truck using Energy Crystals. It’s a good idea to repair damage early instead of waiting until the vehicle is nearly destroyed.
