A speeder was a generic term that encompassed any number of hovering high-speed ground vehicles that used anti-gravity repulsorlift technology and operated within a planet's atmosphere. Examples included landspeeders such as the XP-38 sport landspeeder; the term also applied to airspeeders, which were not strictly repulsorcraft as they did not hover above the ground.[1] Some speeders had afterburners that enabled high-speed flight.[2] Airspeeders were able to fly at altitudes higher than landspeeders, some reaching heights of more than 250 kilometers.[3]
