For those that want to make their own vehicles, they’ll need a vehicle structure, a driver’s seat, a Power Center powered by Power Cells, and wheels to both turn and propel the vehicle forward. These wheels are called Turnable Wheels and Powered Wheels.

How to unlock and craft Turnable Wheels and Powered Wheels in LEGO Fortnite

Both Turnable Wheels and Powered Wheels are available to build from the Build menu, in the Toys section under the Controls category. You do not require a specific crafting station to build them. Each wheel type comes in three sizes: small, medium, or large. The size of the wheel determines how much power it consumes from the Power Cells in your Power Center.

Turnable Wheels also spin forward when given a signal from the vehicle’s driver’s seat, but can also turn left and right.
