A second Journey to Batuu trailer dropped today (9/1), and at the 0:04 and 2:32 marks, you can spot a floating hovercraft/landspeeder (what is basically a car in Star Wars) in the background. I've included screenshots below, but go check out the trailer to see the hover animation. Of course, it could be a prop and/or limited functionality item. It could also be that cars are coming in a patch soon and that this hovercraft is a specific variation they included for the Star Wars pack. Either way, we should know soon. Thoughts?

Edit: You can also see two of these hovercraft at 0:36 mark.

Edit 2: #Disappoint. They are in fact just decorative. The props never seem to end with the Sims 4.

    Players talk as if we dont get things we ask for all the time. Just not in the order to time frame we want them. 😂 but anyway I was totally checking out that craft!! I'm thinking it could be set dressing or like a teleporter rocket ship kinda thing. But if it really is cars (which I totally believe are coming)that would be super exciting!! 🤗

    I'm also thinking it could work like the boat in briliton bay. Get in and hit a loading screen.
    Zombies, oh please oh please give us zombies!! :'(

    I'd rather it work like a car or the boats and bikes.

    I don't think it necessarily means anything. Brindleton Bay had parking lots with parked cars, and that was 2017. In 2018, the Get Famous trailer showed a limousine that our sims can't even ride, and only shows up as set dressing in Del Sol Valley.

    They're definitely working on cars because it's been requested for so long, but I don't think the appearance of land vehicles in a trailer means that they'll be arriving in the near future, because that already happened in 2018, and there's still radio silence after almost 2 years.

    So excited. Loving the trailers for the videos so far too.

    Even if it was a car worst pack ever I never wanted a Star Wars themed car I want real car game play as we had in every other Sims game.

    I expect this to be a deco car unusable nothing but more set dressing just a object to look at to pretend to be in a immersive world but no worries there is blue milk to keep people playing.
    Sims 4 went from "You Rule" to "One of the stories we want you to tell"

    The landspeeders are in the Build/Buy catalog! Does anyone know if the 'environment' rating mean that they are only decoration and not vehicles?

    Think they might be vehicles as the world is just one big neighborhood, with no lots.

    The landspeeders are purely decorative and do nothing. That doesn't mean they can't be updated in a patch to actually work, of course.

    It's actually so absurd to include a flying car that is not functional.

    Such a tease! I was hoping for a functional land speeder. Why include it if my sim has to walk anyway? :(

    Wonder if possible to turn that Landspeeder into a functional bike?
