Nope, no vehicles. They were removed sometime in the past for being too op/broken. There used to be armored cars with machine guns. They were expensive but very strong. The enemy armies had like 10 cars and the ai was broken so they would just rush you and run your guys over. Then you had to try and kill them as quickly as you could with the RPG, but they would take multiple hits and you had to carry a bunch of RPG rounds, and even run back to your stash to get more. Meanwhile they would slaughter all your guys, and 2-3 hits from them would kill you. It was cancer. They would also take damage from normal bullets, but very slowly.
Iirc, the enemies in that version also had RPGs to kill your vehicles, the classes in that game version were really different, it was almost like a different game.
A vehicle used to cost like 80k-200k iirc, but they could die like normal soldiers if they got hit by grenades or RPGs, so you had to micro them and it was a big risk. They were strong against infantry, but you never knew which enemies had RPGs...
I think you could also drive them, but it wasn't that fun. I don't remember.

So TL:DR, the devs decided to cut them and rebalance the game to be infantry only. More boring, but more balanced and not as broken.

HOWEVER, I think you can play them if you go to the beta branch and select beginning version, haven't tested it though.
EDIT: nvm, the beginning version has no vehicles and it sucks anyways, the test branch also doesn't have them. So unless you find an old version somewhere, it seems vehicles are gone forever :(

Vehicles are not available in the current version, they existed only in the v0.200-v0.222 versions of the game. In those builds, you could buy them from separate vehicle shops.

Vehicles in battles had severe pathfinding issues. There were trucks and the like that you could buy to increase overmap speed but they were cut, I think they should have kept those.

Nope this game is literally just like what it would be if you put guns into mount and blade, literally everyone that isn't a transport convoy tromps around on foot.

Nope, no vehicles in the overworld as well. As a workaround, use the Y button to speed up time while moving to save time.

Yah...don't worry. They tried to make Viking Conquest basically to cash in on AC: Valhalla too, and every thing was 'your boat starts a raid on a shore' and it was a horrific mess.

Incidentally they banned modders off discord who tried to restore vehicles.

The devs all but admitted they simply didn't want to take time to fix vehicles back in the day. They had no seperate armor system for vehicles. Back when they were in, I never had issue killing them, because you could reliably get them to chase into grenade spam crossfire.

Because the AI is basic no matter what. Modders wanted to fix it, and got threatened by the dev team for asking about it. Ahh the days.
