The Best Sports Car Cartoon From Your Childhood
BUMBLEBEE
Bumblebee is a mini-flower in the original Transformers animated series, featuring an unsettlingly catchy theme song. This fits his diminutive nickname. That’s right, Bumblebee can change into a cheerful yellow Volkswagen Beetle when he’s not acting like the Autobots’ needy little brother.
This is almost a million miles away from how he appeared in Michael Bay’s Transformers movies when he became the series’ sexiest Chevy Camaro. The filmmaker definitely enhanced Camaro’s image, so maybe Chevy gave him a boost too.
Naturally, in the next series, as he evolved into some kind of Suzuki Swift motor show concept version with rockets on his roof, things got better for the animated version of Bumblebee.
From what we can deduce, Bumblebee is about four million years old. This sports car cartoon may still not be covered by a warranty, especially not a Chevrolet.
LIGHTNING MCQUEEN
The best thing about Lightning McQueen is how much of a bad guy he really is.
Hollywood often anthropomorphizes subjects by adding sweetness to them; As a result, Woody is a great toy, Nemo is a friendly fish, and even Sulley is a good monster.
But Lightning is exactly what you’d expect a Nascar sports car to be like, loud, haughty, and a bit dim. Of course, behind it, all was a signature Disney heart of gold, and his desire to win at all costs was finally quelled when he lost his “Sticker” and ended up looking more like a Corvette than a bad race car.
It seems that McQueen’s authors were also influenced by sports cars, such as the Mazda MX-5 (hence the pleasant face) and Dodge Viper, in addition to the Nascar race car.
VW Kombis are portrayed as profligate hippos, tow trucks like vans with no teeth, and the Porsche 911 (also known as Sally Carrera) is the kind of car you can’t help but fall in love with.
Kids love the Cars movies because they’re simple and cartoonish, but adults love them for their knowing references to the adult world and fun sayings like “thank you producer you’re alive.” .”
Herbie may be the first animated vehicle with personality, but Lightning McQueen is the best sports car cartoon because he maintains the integrity of reality.
As you might have suspected, Glenn McQueen, a Pixar animator who passed away in 2002, was the inspiration for Lightning McQueen, not the legendary Steve McQueen.
Based on Entourage’s Ari Gold, Lightning’s manager Harv (whom we never see on screen), is voiced by Jeremy Clarkson in the British version of Cars and stars Jeremy Piven in the American version.
THE MARK III
Penfold, Danger Mouse’s gentle, polite and forgetful friend is not a mole; Get ready to have your world turned upside down. Penfolds, whose first name is Ernest, is a hamster who, according to the creators of this hugely popular animated series, ran in the UK between 1981 and 1992.
This flying sports car cartoon has telescope wings from the sides when Danger Mouse presses a button on his wrist controller like Dick Tracy, tiny and darting away like a sparrow, but it probably less.
It was created for the DM by Professor Heinrich Von Squawkencluck and is frequently used in the hunt for Baron Silas Greenback and everyone’s favorite crazed villain, Count Duckula.
Despite its cheesy attitude, it remained immensely popular, attracting more than 21 million viewers in the UK in 1983 and becoming the first British animated series to enter the US market.
ECTO-1
Ecto-1 plays a more dramatic role in this cartoon, where this sports car cartoon is used to race by Winston and is equipped with Ghostbusting tools such as a cannon that shoots “bigger entities”, lassoo shooter, smoke generator and Jet Jumper that allow it to do a proper kangaroo jump, up to 2m. Eddie Murphy was originally supposed to play Winston, but he, and the role, was toned down.
Cruz Ramirez
In Pixar’s Cars 3, She’s the incredibly vivacious character tasked with getting McQueen back into shape for the main race. Comedian Cristela Alonzo is the famous actress for this sports car cartoon. She’s not directly based on a particular car, like McQueen, but her design cues incorporate those of the 2017 Toyota 86/Scion Fr-S and Honda Civic Del Sol from the 1990s.
Jackson Storm
Another great sports car cartoon in the movie is Jackson Storm, voiced by actor Armie Hammer, who is Lightning McQueen’s nimble, sly, and friendless foe. He is younger, and more agile than the main character in the movie. He’s billed as 2017’s custom-built “Next Generation” Piston Cup Driver in the movie. This guy is most similar to the Cadillac Cien supercar concept from 2002 in real life.
Strip “The King” Weathers
The vocalist of veteran “Dinoco-blue” racer, 1970 Plymouth Superbird, is none other than Richard Petty, a real-life member of the NASCAR Hall of Fame. This great sports car cartoon had a small role in the first film as the defending Piston Cup champion, who is about to retire. Sadly, he is seriously injured in an accident near the end of the film. McQueen himself lost his chance to win to help Weathers cross the finish line because he was torn between his old, self-centered winning ambition and his new-found altruism.
Conclusion
Sports cars were great in real life, but with the creative minds and high imaginations of animators, sports cars have come to life and magically. Above are the cartoon sports cars that you certainly cannot help but know because they have created a very beautiful childhood for everyone.
