But have you ever wondered what George Lucas’ characters would drive if they were based here on Earth? Here are the cars we think the universe’s most famous characters would drive.
Luke Skywalker – Toyota LandCruiser
The humble and adventurous hero of the original trilogy, Luke would definitely drive a reliable and sturdy vehicle, such as a Toyota LandCruiser to take him on his daring missions. With its rugged off-road capabilities and it would be the perfect vehicle for Luke to explore the wilderness and seek out new adventures.
Princess Leia Organa – Mercedes-Benz S63 AMG
The fierce and determined leader of the Rebel Alliance, Leia would likely be behind the wheel of a luxurious and elegant sportscar fit for a princess with an edge like a Mercedes-Benz S63 AMG. With its impeccable style, technology and power, the AMG would be the perfect reflection of Leia’s uncompromising spirit.
Han Solo – Classic Ford Mustang
The charismatic rogue and smuggler turned hero, would undoubtedly gravitate towards a classic muscle car like a Ford Mustang. With its raw power and rebellious attitude, the Mustang would perfectly complement Han’s daring personality.
Chewbacca – RAM 1500 TRX
Han’s faithful Wookiee co-pilot and friend would most likely be found driving a spacious and durable ute truck like a RAM 1500 TRX. With its rugged design and towing capabilities, it would be the perfect vehicle to transport Chewbacca’s tools and equipment all across the galaxy.
Darth Vader – Rolls-Royce Phantom
The iconic villain of the series would certainly be drawn to a menacing black luxurious technological marvel like a Rolls-Royce Phantom. With its imposing size, V12 power, sophisticated style, and somewhat familiar face, it would be a luxurious limousine befitting his status as the Dark Lord of the Sith.
R2-D2 and C-3PO – Tesla Model Y
The lovable droid duo of R2-D2 and C-3PO would be the most environmentally and tech-savvy of all Star Wars characters. A Tesla Model Y with its cutting-edge technology, sleek design and space would be the perfect vehicle for these futuristic robots who would certainly be ready to use the acceleration mode.
Jar Jar Binks
Jar Jar Binks is known for his clumsiness and bumbling personality. The Morgan Super 3 is a unique and quirky car that stands out from the crowd and has a vintage look and feel that would likely appeal to Jar Jar’s sense of adventure and whimsy. The Morgan Super 3 is also a convertible, which means Jar Jar would be able to feel the wind in his big ears.
