Pods are small rescue vehicles featured in Thunderbirds are Go!. They are used by International Rescue in many of their missions. There are at least four in total; at least two carried by Thunderbird 2 (within Module 2) (possibly also in other modules) one for Thunderbird 3's cargo bay, and finally one inside Thunderbird 5. While on-board Thunderbirds 2 and 3, robotic arms customize their appearance and abilities by taking off and attaching on various tools and wheels (or other means of mobility) so that they can "become" different rescue vehicles for different uses. Some of these combinations have their own names, while others are unnamed.

| - Pods are small rescue vehicles featured in Thunderbirds are Go!. They are used by International Rescue in many of their missions. There are at least four in total; at least two carried by Thunderbird 2 (within Module 2) (possibly also in other modules) one for Thunderbird 3's cargo bay, and finally one inside Thunderbird 5. While on-board Thunderbirds 2 and 3, robotic arms customize their appearance and abilities by taking off and attaching on various tools and wheels (or other means of mobility) so that they can "become" different rescue vehicles for different uses. Some of these combinations have their own names, while others are unnamed. Without attachments, Pods are a rough cylindrical shape and, save for Thunderbird 5's grey one, yellow in colour. They can be entered from above by opening the glass roof. Their interior is very small and contains just two seats; one in the front for the driver, and one passenger seat in the back that is big enough to be inconveniently shared by another. They have on-board computers capable of taking control of a Thunderbird craft remotely, but only after permission has been granted. Driving the Pods is a role shared by all of the Tracy brothers, mainly Alan and Gordon.
