The Sidecar Glider is the aero-transportable vehicle that appears in Kingdom Hearts II and Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix. Riku commandeers it in The World That Never Was for the duration of the second battle with Xemnas on the Altar of Naught. It is only seen during the battle against Xemnas's Dragon Form.
Story
After the Corridor of Darkness leading to Destiny Islands has closed, Xemnas attacks Sora and Riku with a giant Dragon-like battleship. After the ship destroys part of the upper tower of the castle, Riku notices the glider and runs towards it closely followed by Sora. The two then continue to follow Xemnas on the Glider until they face him in the ship's cockpit, and the Glider is sucked into a void of nothingness.
Design
The design for the glider is done after Sidecar motorcycles where the driver rides in a seat on the main portion of the vehicle while driving, and a secondary passenger rides in a separate seat. This same design is used for the glider. Riku drives while Sora stands on the side appendage, both of them use their Keyblades to fight off incoming enemies. Two Nobody emblems adorn the glider, one directly in front of the driver's seat and another one on the floor of the sidecar.
It shares many similarities with Terra's Keyblade Glider.
Features
Laser
This weapon allows the Glider to shoot multiple lasers from a sharp pointed pod at the bottom of the Glider. This command is used by pressing 
.
Megalaser
The Megalaser is a Reaction Command that can only be activated after filling the Megalaser bar by using Drain to convert the offensive small lasers from enemies into energy to power it up.
Drain
When Riku uses this command a barrier is created, similar to Aqua's Reflect barrier, this feature allows you to absorb some of the energy from oncoming lasers to charge up the energy meter so that you can use the Megalaser Reaction Command. It also appears to reflect some of the energy at Xemnas's ship. It is used by pressing 
.
Attack
Commands Sora to strike with his Keyblade. Sora will do a 360-degree horizontal slash. This attack will only hit bomb-like Nobodies that often appeared in front of Sora and Riku. If those Nobodies are hit, they'll be thrown into the ship's part, dealing a good amount of damage. Riku uses it automatically when the Bomb Bell Nobodies appear. It is used by pressing 
.
