Fire Rescue Van:

No other vehicle boost values have been documented. Upland has published zero official documentation on boost mechanics or values.

These are the first documented boost values from any Upland vehicle — and they came from a player doing manual testing in April 2026, not from Upland. After 7 months of selling vehicles with promised boosts, the company has never published what those boosts actually do.
