The Chevalier Ice Breaker is an ice cream truck in Just Cause 2.
See Chevalier Ice Breaker (JC4) for the Just Cause 4 version.
Appearance[]
It's a heavily modified Chevalier Piazza IX. It has a massive front bumper with spikes which allows it to easily ram smaller vehicles off the road. The wheels and rear bumper diffuser seem to be from a Sakura Aquila Metro ST. Its only available in pink.
While this vehicle is technically owned by the Agency, it doesn't seem to have any practical use for the them. It could be Rico's own personal vehicle.
There's an advertisement for Chameleon Ice on the back and ice-cream cones at the front upper corners.
It's made by the fictional company Chevalier.
Tune[]
The brief jingle that can be activated when driving the Chevalier Piazza IX was replaced by a catchy tune that sounds like a remixed version of that of the Piazza. The player operates the tune in the same way they would a siren; the horn button (Q on PC; Press Left Stick on Xbox 360; L3 on PS3) activates and deactivates it.
Performance[]
The Ice Breaker is surprisingly fast and very strong. It's able to control well on slippery snow (the developers may have given it this ability because of its name) and has fairly good steering. The Berawan Besar Mountains are an ideal location for this vehicle.
Ramming other similar sized vehicles has almost no impact on you when you use the Ice Breaker's front bumper. Because of its bumpers, it can easily knock Panau Military soldiers off any Hamaya GSY650, causing major damage to both the bike and the driver. Racking up road kills is easy when driving on the highways of Panau City.
The exceedingly good performance, combined with the low cost of just $25,000, makes this vehicle an excellent choice for all-terrain travel.
How to obtain[]
After purchasing the respective DLC, this vehicle can be purchased for $25,000 at the Black Market. Like all DLC items, it is unlocked immediately after Casino Bust and is fully upgraded.
