A heartfelt sports drama about aging, mentorship, and reinvention, wrapped in family-friendly animation and genuine emotional stakes.

Blindsided by a new generation of blazing-fast racers, the legendary Lightning McQueen is suddenly pushed out of the sport he loves. To get back in the game, he will need the help of an eager young race technician with her own plan to win, inspiration from the late Fabulous Hudson Hornet, and a few unexpected turns.
