DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — Disney and NASCAR have teamed up to unveil a new Disney-Pixar Cars/NASCAR co-branded playset and six newly designed die-cast racers from Mattel.
The Disney-Pixar Cars/NASCAR Lane Change Race Playset from Mattel is a 2.5-foot track set modeled after Los Angeles Raceway, a venue from the original Cars film.
The newly designed die-cast racers combine the worlds of Disney-Pixar Cars and NASCAR, bringing a unique twist to these popular brands. Each vehicle, designed in 1:55 scale, features a NASCAR-inspired design, metallic die-cast body, and rolling wheels. Every vehicle comes with a matching pit-stop barrier for added racing fun and display appeal.
In addition to Lightning McQueen, fans can look forward to die-casts inspired by real NASCAR stars:
- Ryan “Inside” Laney (Ryan Blaney, Driver of the No. 12 Ford for Team Penske)
- GoGo Logano (Joey Logano, Driver of the No. 22 Ford for Team Penske)
- William Byrev (William Byron, Driver of the No. 24 Chevrolet for Hendrick Motorsports)
- Carstin “Ace” Dillon (Austin Dillon, Driver of the No. 3 Chevrolet for Richard Childress Racing)
- Bubba Wheelhouse (Bubba Wallace, Driver of the No. 23 Toyota for 23XI Racing)
Fans will recognize Blaney’s and Wallace’s characters from their roles in Cars 3.
“NASCAR’s continued collaboration with Disney and Pixar’s beloved Cars franchise provides incredible opportunities to engage the next generation of race fans and introduce them to real NASCAR stars in a fun, familiar way,” said Megan Malayter, managing director of licensing and consumer products at NASCAR. “It’s great to have an industry leader like Mattel bringing this line to life and knowing that fans will be treated to a quality play experience, which can be such a powerful contributor to future fandom.”
Each die-cast is sold separately, and all products are available exclusively at Walmart.
