Alright, so there's some decent room for debate here, but Andromeda's Nomad is the series' best vehicle to date. It's fast, versatile (that six-wheel drive mode...) and benefits from solid handling, all of which make it an easy improvement over the first Mass Effect's Mako, especially when you start lavishing it with upgrades.

Though the Mako's jankiness was indeed part of the appeal for many, the Nomad is a straight-up slick, no-nonsense vehicle that makes pulling donuts in the sand dunes an absolute blast. Mass Effect 2's Hammerhead also has its share of fans, but in terms of being an excellent all-rounder, the Nomad is the easy winner.
