Get set for the Ether Jet

Traverse the vast worlds of the Bionis and the Mechonis at high-speed using the new Ether Jet vehicle. As well as providing a faster mode of transportation in both the main adventure and Xenoblade Chronicles: Future Connected, you can also take part in the Nopon Grand Prix, competing in timed and score-based races throughout the open world.

The Ether Jet can be unlocked by completing the quest ‘world-changing whatchamajig’ that appears from Chapter 4 onwards.
