    The Hurricane 506 Cloud Car is one of the variant predecessors of the Storm IV Cloud Car. At least around the Battle of Yavin, the Notsub Security company based on the planet of Tatooine employed this twin-engine design. It features a single cockpit that houses the crew in a cramped toboggan-like situation. This durable machine with its spotless repair record has a tendency to roll to port when accelerating.
