The Fire Engine is a large vehicle, encompassing enough space for Shinra, Iris, Akitaru and Maki to sit comfortably in the back while having seats at the front for the driver and front-seat passengers. Attached to the vehicle are multiple fire extinguishers, hoses and a speaker-phone. On the bonnet of the vehicle is the crest that signifies the Special Fire Brigade, and depending on the brigade is the number that they represent (ex. for the 8th Special Fire Brigade is the number "08").

Overview
The Special Armored Fire Engine was first shown when the 8th Special Fire Brigade were called in to help an on-going wildfire at a small factory that manufactured metal fittings. Takehisa Hinawa drove the engine while the other members of the brigade sat in the back and discussed the situation and the objective of the mission. While Hinawa was driving, he alerted driving citizens through a speaker attached to the Fire Engine that they were in an emergency and they were passing through quickly.
