Legend of Zelda has seen several new and exciting changes, with new features and abilities for players to play around with. One of the new features added to Zelda Tears of the Kingdom is the ability to craft vehicles in the game using different items you find called Zonai Devices.
There are several Zonai Devices, including wheels, the cart, the steering stick, and even weapons such as bombs. In this guide, we will have a detailed look at the functions of Zonai Devices and where we can find them in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom.
All Zonai devices in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom
Zonai Devices always appear encapsulated, which you can take from your inventory for only one use. These devices, once taken out, can’t be put back again. It’s time to craft a vehicle after finding the dispensers and obtaining Zonai Devices in Zelda TotK from them.
Depending on your imagination and resources, these vehicles can be fit for ground, sky, or even water.
These Zonai Devices in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom can be combined using the Ultrahand ability you unlock for Link as a part of the main story progression. Let us look at all the Zonai devices and what they do:

Where to find Zonai devices in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom
Zonai Devices are obtained from their dispensers in Hyrule. Once you find a dispenser, you need to bring Zonai Charges to the dispenser, and the dispenser converts these resources into the devices you are after. Most of these dispensers are available on Sky Island.
Each dispenser gives you multiple Zonai Devices (specific to that dispenser), depending on how many Zonai Charges you feed to the dispenser (5 maximum at one time). Each dispenser can randomly give you any Zonai Device from a selection available to that dispenser.

Benefits of Zonai devices
Other than the obvious benefit, that allows easy and fast locomotion across Hyrule. It also allows you to access different areas quicker and easier. Zonai Devices can be used to make weaponized vehicles in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom.
These vehicles can then attack and target multiple enemies and clear out hordes of enemies without wasting too many resources. The different types of weapons you can use together in a single Zonai vehicle and what components you use can also help you work more efficiently against certain groups of enemies.
