Vehicle
Pick one of 107 vehicles, from classic cars and trains to aircraft, ships and spaceships, and Nodaro adds the vehicle and a short description to your prompt.
The Vehicle picker adds a vehicle to an image or a video. You choose one vehicle from its catalog, such as a '57 Chevy, a sportbike, a steam locomotive, a sailboat or a starfighter. Nodaro adds the vehicle and a short description of its body and details to the prompt of every node you connect it to. The picker never calls a model, so it costs no credits.
When to use it
- Automotive product and lifestyle photography.
- Action and chase scenes.
- Period drama with vintage cars, carriages or ships.
- Sci-fi world-building with spaceships, mechs and hovercars.

Vehicle or Object/Props Asset
The Vehicle picker describes a kind of vehicle in words. Each run draws a new vehicle that matches the description, so the car changes from one shot to the next. To show one specific car again and again, use an Object/Props Asset. The asset keeps approved pictures of the object and sends them with every run. Read Objects for the full method.
Tips
- Match the vehicle to its time. Pair the picker with Era / Period to place a vintage car in its own decade.
- Change the finish or the action. Use Custom text (before), for example
matte-black, or Custom text (after), for examplewith tire smoke. - Set the scene around it. Add a Setting picker, such as Open Highway or Parking Lot, for a real place.
