Quick answer
The Kodiak is a recorded four-seat ground transport that costs $2,500 per deployment and has no one-time unlock gate in the reviewed Season 1 sources. It is designed for fast passenger movement and a small logistics load rather than protected combat.

A September 14 Season 1 vehicle guide records four seats, a 12-slot trunk, a 4×1 logistics bed and 154 km/h top speed. These are community observations from the launch build, while cash rewards and future handling remain patch-sensitive.
Passenger and cargo role
Use the Kodiak to move a small group from headquarters or a safe route to the edge of the active fight. Fill the passenger seats when possible: official game material confirms that transporting friendlies is rewarded, and a full trip provides more team value than a solo drive.
An August 28 cargo walkthrough shows the Kodiak carrying smaller containers rather than URAL-sized pallets. Confirm the current cargo slot before purchasing a crate.
Before deployment
Agree on the destination, choose a route and identify a dismount point behind cover. The current community guide describes the Kodiak as fast but lightly protected, so do not drive through a held street merely because the vehicle can reach it quickly.
Leave the vehicle where it can reverse or turn, and keep enough cash for another useful deployment. Transport earnings depend on completing the trip, not owning the fastest record on paper.
Compare another option
The Kodiak Flatbed adds passenger capacity after a Driver gate. The Humvee costs more but has a stronger protection record, while the Bobcat is the cheapest short-range two-person option.
Use the vehicle directory to compare seats, price and access before the group leaves headquarters.
Data version and sources
The image and vendor fields are versioned community records reviewed on September 16, 2026. The Season 1 article and cargo video corroborate the transport role and small-crate path. No official current armor, fuel-use or damage table was located, so those values remain outside the public facts table.
Read every value with its version.
Official changes use first-party announcements. Item fields without a current official table remain labeled as dated gameplay records until they can be checked in the public client.
