The Storm IV Twin-Pod Cloud Car was an atmospheric vehicle known as a cloud car which was designed and manufactured by Bespin Motors on Bespin's Cloud City. This high-atmospheric aircraft consisted of two armored pods connected by a strong engine block housing the small yet powerful Kyromaster dual ion engine system and the secondary repulsorlift systems.[4] The ion engine operated as the cloud-car's main propulsion system and allowed it to attain speeds of up to 1,500 kph while the repulsorlift drive was used for difficult maneuvers and increased the car's speed.[3] Much of the engine area was exposed to reduce engine heat and allow maximum air-cooling. As it was designed solely for atmospheric flight, the vehicle also had a system of flaps, jets, vanes, and rudders to improve control.
