Vehicles
Halo: Campaign Evolved vehicles — 4-Spartan Warthog, Covenant Wraith, Scorpion tank, hijack mechanics, and vehicle combat tactics.
Introduction
Vehicles in Halo: Campaign Evolved are bigger, more destructive, and more numerous than ever. Drive the 4-Spartan Warthog with a new rear bumper seat, hijack Covenant Wraith tanks mid-combat, and pilot Scorpion main battle tanks against Forerunner and Covenant forces. The remake brings back every drivable from the original plus expanded physics, new mounted weapons, and a fully destructible environment that lets you flip Warthogs into cover positions. This wiki covers every UNSC vehicle (Warthog variants, Scorpion tank, Pelican drops), every Covenant vehicle (Ghost, Wraith, Shadow, Banshee), and the rare Forerunner vehicles you encounter in late-game missions. We also cover hijack mechanics, the new 4-player Warthog seating, vehicle-specific Skulls, and the best co-op driver/gunner combinations for Legendary runs.

Core Mechanics
Vehicles operate on Halo's classic physics — Warthog flips can be righted by holding the action button, the Scorpion's main cannon deals splash damage, the Wraith's mortar can be fired at high-arcing angles, and the Banshee's maneuverability makes it ideal for anti-air. The remake adds the new 4-seat Warthog rear bumper configuration.
Advantages
The Warthog is the iconic Halo vehicle — fast, mobile, and the only true 4-player transport. The Scorpion tank deletes Hunter pairs in one shell. The Wraith's mortar out-ranges every enemy weapon. The Ghost's boost makes it the fastest vehicle in the game.
Challenges
Vehicles are vulnerable to single-shot plasma weapons, Brute Spiker, and the Fuel Rod Cannon. The Warthog is fragile to Elites' plasma rifles. The Banshee is paper-thin against any ground-based weapon. The Scorpion's treads can be destroyed by sustained plasma fire.

Quick Tips
The Warthog's driver is the most important role — never let the AI drive in Legendary.
The Scorpion's main cannon can hit targets 200m away — use it for Hunter pairs at distance.
Hijack a Wraith from a downed driver — the mortar out-ranges every UNSC weapon.
The Ghost's boost makes it the fastest vehicle — perfect for skipping sections on Heroic.
Banshee 2-player co-op requires the passenger to fire — solo pilots only have plasma cannons.
