**Autopia** is a race track attraction at various [Disney theme parks](/source/Disney_Experiences#Disney_resorts), in which patrons steer specially designed cars through an enclosed track. Versions of Autopia exist at [Disneyland](/source/Disneyland) at [Anaheim, California](/source/Anaheim%2C_California) and [Disneyland Paris](/source/Disneyland_Paris) in [Marne-la-Vallée, France](/source/Marne-la-Vall%C3%A9e). There was also an Autopia at [Hong Kong Disneyland](/source/Hong_Kong_Disneyland) on [Lantau Island](/source/Lantau_Island), [Hong Kong](/source/Hong_Kong) before it closed on June 11, 2016. Other versions of the attraction can be found at the [Magic Kingdom](/source/Magic_Kingdom) as the **Tomorrowland Speedway** and formerly at [Tokyo Disneyland](/source/Tokyo_Disneyland) as the **Grand Circuit Raceway**. A previous generation of Disneyland's Autopia operated for over a decade at the [Walt Disney Hometown Museum](/source/Walt_Disney_Hometown_Museum) in [Marceline, Missouri](/source/Marceline%2C_Missouri); one of the retired cars is now on display.

## Etymology

The term autopia is a [portmanteau](/source/Portmanteau) of the words "*auto*mobile uto*pia*" and was first coined in the 1920s.[1] The term was later popularized in the 1970s to describe the effect of freeways on urbanization and architecture, particularly by English architecture critic [Reyner Banham](/source/Reyner_Banham) in his 1971 book *Los Angeles: The Architecture of Four Ecologies* and in American architect [Denise Scott Brown](/source/Denise_Scott_Brown)’s 1972 book *Learning from Las Vegas.*[2]

## Disneyland Autopia

Autopia in 1996, before its complete remodel in 2000. The Autopia cars at this time closely resembled the Corvette Stingray.

The Disneyland Autopia, in one form or another, is one of the few current attractions that opened with the park on July 17, 1955. When it opened, it represented the future of what would become America's multilane limited-access highways, which were still being developed. [President Eisenhower](/source/Dwight_Eisenhower) had yet to sign the [Interstate Highway legislation](/source/Interstate_Highway_System) at the time Disneyland opened.[3] Disneyland Autopia’s original sponsor from 1955 until 1970 was [Richfield Oil](/source/Richfield_Oil_Corporation).[4]

Drivers can use the steering wheel along the track but the center rail will guide the cars along the track regardless of steering input. Drivers and children too short to depress the gas pedal are paired with taller individuals who can. Brakes are applied automatically when the driver releases the gas pedal.

### Autopia cars

The original Disneyland Autopia cars were designed by Disney Imagineer [Bob Gurr](/source/Bob_Gurr) to resemble actual full-sized vehicles rather than a common [bumper car](/source/Bumper_car).[3] The cars were constructed with fiberglass bodies on a 64-inch wheelbase. They used a Gladden Products Corp. 4-stroke, single-cylinder 318 cc motor rated at 7.5 bhp at 3400 rpm. The 475-lb cars were limited to a top speed of 11 mph.[5]

Before the park opened, the cars were tested without the bumpers, and were almost completely destroyed by the test drivers. Bumpers were fitted around the vehicle, but there were still problems with collisions. After opening day, many of the 39 cars in service were broken.[3] Eventually the vehicles were fitted with spring-loaded bumpers to discourage collisions, roadway dividers and guide rails were added.[3]

The first fleet of Autopia cars were dubbed "Mark I". Throughout Disneyland's first few years, Autopia went through a few fleets, as the cars took much abuse. Though basically the same look, they went through Mark I, II, III, and IV by 1958. When the [Monorail](/source/Disneyland_Monorail_System), [Submarine Voyage](/source/Submarine_Voyage), and [Matterhorn](/source/Matterhorn_Bobsleds) debuted in 1959, so did a new fleet with an all-new look – the "Mark Vs". The next design, Mark VI, came in 1964. It was at this time (1965) the center guide rail was first installed.[6] 1967 brought another new design, the Mark VIIs, which cost $5,000 for each car and looked similar to the new [Corvette Stingray](/source/Chevrolet_Corvette_(C3)).[6] They remained in service through 1999, till a breed of Mark VIIIs hit the Autopia roadway. The cars were manufactured by Intermountain Design, Utah.[7]

Unitl 2008, the Disneyland Autopia cars were powered by 286 cc (17.5 cu in) [two-stroke](/source/Two-stroke_engine) gasoline motors from [Kawasaki](/source/Kawasaki_Heavy_Industries). After Honda agreed to sponsor the ride in 2008, cars were re-engined with the 270 cc (16 cu in) [Honda *iGX270*](/source/List_of_Honda_engines), a [four-stroke](/source/Four-stroke_engine) gasoline engine which was quieter and produced fewer emissions.[8]

In April 2024, it was announced that the cars would be re-powered with [fully electric](/source/Electric_vehicle) drivetrains by Fall 2026.[9]

### Autopia tracks

The Tomorrowland version was not the only form of Autopia to exist at Disneyland. Other versions, separate from the Tomorrowland version, included the Midget Autopia, [Fantasyland](/source/Fantasyland) Autopia ([Rescue Rangers](/source/Chip_'n_Dale%3A_Rescue_Rangers_(TV_series)) Raceway), and Junior Autopia. Of these, the Tomorrowland Autopia existed the longest.

The Midget Autopia opened in 1957 and was manufactured by [Arrow Development](/source/Arrow_Development).[10] It was the smallest and was the third Autopia track, after the Tomorrowland Autopia (1955) and the Junior Autopia in Fantasyland (1956). It was located next to the [Storybook Land Canal Boats](/source/Storybook_Land_Canal_Boats) and the Motor Boat Cruise at the very edge of Fantasyland. Adults were not allowed on the ride.[6] It was closed in 1966 and dismantled to make way for [It's a Small World](/source/It's_a_Small_World).

The ride was then donated to the city of [Marceline, Missouri](/source/Marceline%2C_Missouri), where it operated in the Walt Disney Municipal Park for 11 years until parts were no longer available for the cars. One of the cars is on display in the museum whereas the concrete track on which the cars ran was ultimately demolished in 2016 to facilitate replacement of the city pool. In 2015, the [Walt Disney Hometown Museum](/source/Walt_Disney_Hometown_Museum) made plans to recreate the ride next to the museum in downtown Marceline, launching a [Kickstarter](/source/Kickstarter) campaign to finance the project. The project attracted a fraction of the $500,000 required to reconstruct the vehicles and track.[11][12]

Unlike all other Autopia attractions, Midget Autopia was one of several of Arrow Development's "off-the-shelf" Arrowflite Tracked Auto Rides built at several amusement parks throughout the country, at least one of which still operates at [Idlewild Park](/source/Idlewild_and_Soak_Zone) in Pennsylvania.[13]

The Fantasyland Autopia began as the Junior Autopia in 1956. Unlike the original Autopia, the Junior Autopia track had a center guard rail.[6] It closed in 1958, and reopened on January 1, 1959, as the expanded Fantasyland Autopia. It was a duplicate version of the Tomorrowland Autopia and featured the same theme of the original until March 1991, when part of the Disney's Afternoon Avenue makeover of Fantasyland, the ride was transformed into the Rescue Rangers Raceway. The theming was kept until the beginning of 1992, when the promotion ended. The ride remained open on an interim basis until September 7, 1999, when both the Tomorrowland and Fantasyland Autopias were closed.[14]

In 2000, Disneyland replaced both existing Autopia tracks with a new, much larger Autopia sponsored by [Chevron](/source/Chevron_Corporation). The colorful [Chevrolet Corvette Stingray](/source/Chevrolet_Corvette)-style cars were replaced by three different kinds of cars: Dusty, an off-road style car; Sparky, a sports car; and Suzy, a [Volkswagen Beetle](/source/Volkswagen_Beetle)-style car. Each was designed to be tied into the Chevron line of animated '[Chevron Cars](/source/Chevron_Cars)', and four versions of the Autopia cars were sold as toys during the 2000 summer season at Chevron stations nationwide. The queue featured animated dioramas featuring the Chevron Cars, and the ride's background music is taken directly from the park's former [PeopleMover](/source/PeopleMover) attraction, which had closed five years prior to the new Autopia's opening. The voice of Dusty the Autopia car is voiced by Matthew Howard, who is said to be (as of 2004) the youngest Disney ride announcer. In response to several minor incidents, the ride safety spiel was re-recorded in 2004 in order to remind parents to watch their children.[15] New for the track was a short "off-road" section.[6] Chevron's sponsorship ended in the summer of 2012, though the Chevron Cars still appeared in the attraction's preshow until Honda took over sponsorship, with all overt references to Chevron removed.[16]

On January 11, 2016, the attraction closed for a new building, walkway (now painted blue, white, and silver), sign, vehicle paint schemes, minor vehicle modifications, and sponsor. The attraction reopened on April 29, 2016, with Honda as its new sponsor, replacing Chevron. In early 2017 all remaining Chevron references were all removed from the attraction. On March 24, 2017, Honda revealed [ASIMO](/source/ASIMO) in the attraction. Asimo is accompanied by Bird and are in various scenes throughout the attraction, most of the scenes replaced the carpark, and various billboards.

## Car attractions in other Disney parks

### Magic Kingdom

Magic Kingdom's Tomorrowland Speedway

The second Disney theme park to open was [Magic Kingdom](/source/Magic_Kingdom). An opening day attraction, the **Grand Prix Raceway** was based on an international car race rather than the futuristic roadways of Autopia. The original sponsor was [Goodyear](/source/Goodyear_Tire_and_Rubber_Company), as it supplied all of the tires on the Mark VII vehicles.

The track length has been the subject of incorrect discussion over the years. Through aerial photography and research it has been determined that the attraction was never lengthened, but shortened 3 times.[17][18] On opening day the track was approximately 3,118 feet. The attraction saw its length greatly reduced for the first time in 1974 for the construction of [Space Mountain](/source/Space_Mountain_(Magic_Kingdom)), with the two southern curves being shortened and the entire north portion of the track being reduced, thus shortening the ride to ~2,760 feet. An even larger section was removed to make room for [Mickey's Toontown Fair](/source/Mickey's_Toontown_Fair) sometime between late 1987 and early 1988, this time the track was reduced to ~2,191 feet. In 2012 the final curve was again shortened to make way for [Dumbo the Flying Elephant](/source/Dumbo_the_Flying_Elephant) diminishing the ride to ~2,119 feet. In the end, the current attraction has lost over 32% of its original length.

In 1994, the Grand Prix theme and name was dropped in favor of **Tomorrowland Indy Speedway**, but the track and vehicles remained the same, as new theming to coincide with the "New Tomorrowland" overlay was installed. However, *[The Walt Disney World Explorer](/source/The_Walt_Disney_World_Explorer)* application—both the original edition released in 1996 and the *Second Edition* released in 1998—used the original name for the attraction's slideshow topic in the application.[19][20]

On December 20, 1999, [Walt Disney Company](/source/Walt_Disney_Company) and the [Indianapolis Motor Speedway](/source/Indianapolis_Motor_Speedway) partnered to change the theme of the track. The ride was changed to add items from the famous Speedway, such as the famous *Yard of Bricks,* the Scoring Pylon, Gasoline Alley and the wheel and wing logo. The loading area featured panels with the three Indy events: the [Indianapolis 500](/source/Indianapolis_500), the [Brickyard 400](/source/Allstate_400_at_the_Brickyard) and the [United States Grand Prix](/source/United_States_Grand_Prix).

The name was changed in 2008 to **Tomorrowland Speedway**, resulting in the drop of the **Indy** portion of the title.[21]

In 2019, the ride underwent more track adjustments to accommodate the addition of [*TRON* Lightcycle / Run](/source/Tron_Lightcycle_Power_Run).[22] The attraction reopened on May 18, 2019.[23]

### Tokyo Disneyland

Tokyo Disneyland's Grand Circuit Raceway

At Tokyo Disneyland, the ride was known as **Grand Circuit Raceway**. This version of the ride opened with the park in 1983 and remained largely unchanged. The ride was sponsored by [Bridgestone](/source/Bridgestone) and featured a grandstand for visitors to watch the "races" between drivers. The track was described as a "figure eight" shape, but was actually quite longer. A new ride, [Aquatopia](/source/Aquatopia), opened at neighboring park [Tokyo DisneySea](/source/Tokyo_DisneySea) in 2001, but other than the name similarity to the Disneyland car ride (it is a homage) Aquatopia is closer (as an attraction) to Disneyland's former [Motor Boat Cruise](/source/Motor_Boat_Cruise). Tokyo Disneyland's version closed on January 11, 2017, to make way for a Beauty and the Beast themed area.

### Disneyland Paris

In [Disneyland Park](/source/Disneyland_Park_(Paris)) in [Paris](/source/Disneyland_Paris), the attraction, which opened with *Euro Disneyland* on April 12, 1992, uses the original Disneyland name of Autopia, but has a unique sense of style and theming. The cars are more rounded to go with a 1920s retro-futuristic theme.

This is also the only Autopia style attraction to have a storyline. The story was that the guests drove their cars, called "Astrocoupes", around a nearby city to [Discoveryland](/source/Tomorrowland_(Disney_Parks)), "Solaria".

In 2012, the "Solaria" prop was removed from the attraction and all Discoveryland logos were removed from the fleet of cars. The original storyline was also removed, turning it into a simple driving track, just like its American and Asian counterparts.

### Hong Kong Disneyland

Hong Kong Disneyland's Autopia

Hong Kong Disneyland was the first Disneyland-style park to not open with a form of the Autopia attraction. Later opened in summer 2006 as part of its phase one expansion, the Hong Kong version was different from the other versions as it featured electric cars with lighting effects and an onboard audio system. Theming included a lush jungle and alien landscapes. [Honda](/source/Honda) was the sponsor of the attraction. Hong Kong Disneyland's Autopia closed on June 11, 2016, which was originally set to be replaced by "Avengers Quinjet Experience". But, at D23 2024 on August 10, it was announced that "Avengers Quinjet Experience" has been cancelled to make way for a new unnamed Spider-Man attraction, a part of "Stark Expo".[24] In January 2026, the Walt Disney World News Today stated the new project would be expanded into a Spiderman/Avengers themed tower structure.[25]
