Rescue speeder

Rescue speeders were speeders used by the Jedi Order during the High Republic Era. In 232 BBY, Jedi Padawans Lula Talisola, Farzala Tarabal, Qort, and Bibs rode the vehicles to the Outer Rim planet Trymant IV's surface to help evacuate Bralanak City's residents during an Emergence of the Great Hyperspace Disaster that impacted the world. Using a rescue speeder, Talisola and Tarabal shot down a flaming piece of debris headed toward several civilians on a rooftop, saving them.

During the Battle of Eriadu in 228 BBY, several Jedi and their allies used rescue speeders to attack the Nihil marauders invading the planet Eriadu. While riding the speeders, they attacked one Nihil gunboat and commandeered another. After the group listened to a speech from Tarabal—by then a Jedi Knight—inspiring them to renew their fight against the invaders, the allies rode their speeders back to shore.
