Xio Athos (ジオアトス, Jioatosu)[3] is a specialized hatchback-style investigation vehicle used by the elite defense unit Xio.

Overview[]

Design and Features[]

It is designed for a variety of tasks, from frontline operations and enemy pursuit to patrolling and reconnaissance[3], playing a key role in the team's mission to protect Earth from the monstrous threats that emerge. The main color of the vehicle is red.

Athos is equipped with a variety of advanced research and analysis equipment inside, designed to support the team during their investigative operations.

The vehicle is also armed with high-tech offensive and defensive capabilities. Mounted on the top of the vehicle is a powerful laser cannon known as the Athos Laser (アトスレーザー, Atosu Rēzā)[3][4], used for both offense and defense during combat scenarios. Additionally, the Athos Wing (アトスウィング, Atosu Uingu)[3][4] at the rear of the vehicle is outfitted with a universal sensor, enhancing its detection and tracking abilities.

Operation and Use[]

Athos is primarily operated by Wataru Kazama and Hayato Kishima[3], two of Xio's most skilled agents. These agents use the vehicle for a wide range of duties, including enemy pursuit, patrolling, and conducting investigations.

In episode 18 and onward, a personal touch is added to the vehicle: Hayato hangs an amulet created by Nanako on the rearview mirror, symbolizing protection and luck.
