The area is designed to replicate the fictional town of Radiator Springs from the movies, bringing to life the characters and settings that fans have come to love.

Attractions[edit | edit source]

Cars Land features several attractions that are designed to immerse guests in the world of Cars. The most notable of these is Radiator Springs Racers, a slot car dark ride that takes guests through the scenic vistas of Ornament Valley before culminating in a high-speed race. Other attractions include Luigi's Rollickin' Roadsters, where guests can dance in a trackless ride system, and Mater's Junkyard Jamboree, a whip ride that has guests swinging in time to music.

In addition to attractions, Cars Land offers a variety of dining and shopping experiences. Flo's V8 Cafe serves up classic American diner fare, while the Cozy Cone Motel offers snacks and treats in cone-themed packaging. For shopping, guests can visit Sarge's Surplus Hut for merchandise and memorabilia inspired by the Cars movies.

Design and Development[edit | edit source]

The development of Cars Land was announced in 2007 as part of a $1.1 billion expansion plan for Disney California Adventure. The area was designed to bring the fictional world of Radiator Springs to life, with meticulous attention to detail in its architecture, landscaping, and attractions. The design team worked closely with Pixar to ensure authenticity, incorporating characters, settings, and themes from the Cars films into every aspect of Cars Land.

Reception[edit | edit source]

Since its opening, Cars Land has been praised for its immersive theming and attention to detail. Guests and critics alike have lauded Radiator Springs Racers as a standout attraction, both for its innovative ride system and its faithful recreation of the Cars universe.
