Description
Who is Lightning McQueen?
The main character and central protagonist of Cars, considered one of Pixar's most popular and successful franchises, began in 2006. The series is set in a world entirely populated by anthropomorphic cars and other vehicles. Lightning McQueen is a professional race car who quickly rose to prominence in his local scene before debuting in the Piston Cup. He had a long and prosperous career, winning several championships before becoming the trainer and head of Cruz Ramirez on the Dinoco racing team. McQueen is typically portrayed as kind and passionate, having found an unlikely home in Radiator Springs, Arizona, where he lives with his best friend Tow Mater, his girlfriend Sally, and many other neighbors. Originally arrogant and self-centered, driven by ambitions to become a professional Piston Cup racer, he gets lost when his transporter takes him to Los Angeles and seeks help on the interstate road when pursued by the sheriff of the small town of Radiator Springs. After causing some chaos in an escape attempt, McQueen is sentenced to community service in the town. He ends up making friends with the locals, especially the distracted Tow Mater, a 1955 Chevrolet tow truck. The film spawned two sequels, Cars 2 (2011) and Cars 3 (2017), as well as two spin-offs, games, comic books, collectibles, and more.
