There are 10 Personal Vehicles in Borderlands 4. Collecting all of them unlocks the Catch-A-Ride trophy & achievement.
You can view them under the menu Customization > Vehicle > Vehicle Select. When scrolling over them it shows the unlock requirement. The first 6 are all automatic rewards from story missions. The remaining 4 come from the character challenges for reaching level 50 with each of the 4 classes (Siren, Forgeknight, Gravitar, Exo-Soldier).
You can view the character challenges under Missions > Challenges > Character. When you scroll over the challenge it shows the reward icons for each tier, and the final reward for level 50 is the red vehicle icon. Do not confuse with vehicle cosmetics which are unlocked from other challenges/activities/quests and have a red paintbrush icon next to the vehicle icon.
The good news is that after finishing the story for the first time, you can start the other character classes immediately at Level 30. After the story you can go to Title Screen > New Game – Ultimate Vault Hunter (Level 30) > select Character. This means you don’t have to grind all the way from Level 1, only from Level 30 > Level 50.
The vehicle unlocks carry over between your characters and across different saves as they’re stored on your overall profile save. So after you’ve unlocked them with one character, you will immediately have access to them with all other characters.

How to reach Level 50 with all Characters fast:
With some smart planning you can minimize the level grind to just 2 characters.
- You will reach Level 50 automatically on one character by doing all 25 Main Missions + 98 Side Missions.
- You can pair the 80 Contracts for the Freelance, but Not for Free trophy with another character. Start a character after the story in Ultimate Vault Hunter Mode to farm the 80 contracts, this starts you out at Level 30 and doing 80 Contracts should get you to Level 50.
- For the last 2 characters, start them at Level 30 in Ultimate Vault Hunter Mode. Then replay the Primordial Vaults (combat arenas) which give roughly one level up per 20-30 minutes. It takes around 10 hours to grind from Level 30 to Level 50, depending on how quickly you can kill the enemies.
