《Cars》 Original Trailer (2006) | 《Cars》 20th Anniversary

Pixar’s Cars follows rookie race car Lightning McQueen, whose unexpected stay in Radiator Springs reshapes his priorities before a championship race.

Lightning McQueen is a rookie race car who chases nothing but becoming a Piston Cup champion and the fame that comes with it. On his way to an important race in California, he gets lost and arrives in the small town of Radiator Springs on the old Route 66. This unplanned detour leads McQueen into a daily life moving at an entirely different pace.

Stranded in town, McQueen meets the residents, including the tow truck Mater, lawyer Sally, and quiet doctor Doc Hudson. At first, he wants to return to the race as quickly as possible, but spending time with them helps him realize that trophies and sponsorships are not everything. The film follows both the competitive tension of the race toward the finish line and the communal life of the declining town.

《Cars》 is a Pixar animated feature directed by Joe Ranft and John Lasseter. Owen Wilson voices Lightning McQueen, Paul Newman voices Doc Hudson, and Bonnie Hunt and Larry the Cable Guy are also part of the principal voice cast. It was released theatrically in the United States on June 9, 2006, and met Korean audiences on July 20 of the same year.

This 20th-anniversary video is the original 2006 trailer. Running 2 minutes and 25 seconds, it condenses the film’s starting point: McQueen, who had been focused solely on winning, encounters unexpected connections in Radiator Springs.
