Vahki Transports,[2] also called Vahki Carts,[3] were large vehicles used in Metru Nui.

History

Larger variants of the Vahki Transport carrying Matoran Spheres

In Metru Nui, the Transports were used by the Vahki to transport large Rahi and other objects.

Toa Metru Vakama, Nokama, and Matau stowed themselves away aboard a Vahki Transport traveling through Ko-Metru after being branded criminals by Turaga Dume. The three Toa secretly exited as it passed through Po-Metru, where they freed their fellow Toa Metru from prison. The Toa later used a Vahki Transport they named The Lhikan to escape from Metru Nui. It was extremely battered during its trip to the surface and later melted down in the construction of the six villages.

Features

The interior of a Vahki Transport Carriage

Vahki transports are, like all ground vehicles on Metru Nui, driven by four or six pairs of insect-like legs, and not wheels. As a result, the ride is bumpy and unstable. The transports are powered by speed Kanoka, and come in various sizes and lengths. Some transports, such as those used to transport Matoran Spheres, have extra carriages attached to increase the capacity.
