As the season progresses, the amount of new racers begin to increase, resulting in many veterans either retiring, or being fired by their sponsors, to make way for the new generation. Then, in the last race of the season, McQueen is injured in a rollover crash while trying to catch up to Storm. Four months later, McQueen, recovering in Radiator Springs, isolates himself from his friends, and is watching footage of Doc Hudson, whose career ended in a similar accident, and McQueen fears that this might happen to him as well. After receiving some encouragement from his girlfriend, Sally, McQueen decides to continue racing and call his sponsors from Rust - eze, Rusty and Dusty, who surprise him by telling him they opened a new state - of - the - art training center known as the Rust - eze Racing Center, only to reveal that they have sold the team to a new owner, Sterling. There, McQueen meets Sterling, and is assigned to train under Cruz Ramirez. Cruz 's methodical approach to training wears on McQueen 's impatience, and he attempts to use a high tech racing simulator - only to end up damaging it. Sterling decides that McQueen is unfit to race, and instead, plans to use him for promotional materials only. McQueen contests this, and instead, makes a deal ; if he should win the first race of the season, he will get to determine when he retires, otherwise he will retire on the spot. Sterling accepts the deal, but assigns him to work one - on - one with Cruz. McQueen tries to train on the nearby Fireball Beach in order to build up his speed, but he finds most of his time spent on teaching Cruz how to drive on various terrain. McQueen then attempts to race at a dirt track called Thunder Hollow, and inadvertently becomes part of a demolition derby called '' Crazy Eight '' that Cruz wins, and her elation leads to McQueen 's embarrassment. Distraught at the waste of training time, McQueen rages at Cruz, and in a fit of frustration, he accidentally breaks her trophy. Upset and in retaliation, Cruz furiously reveals that she had wanted to race professionally all her life, since she was inspired by McQueen, but never started a race because she felt intimidated by the other race cars, and simply lacked confidence. She resigns as McQueen 's trainer, and heads back to the training center. Guilty and with no other options, McQueen calls up his friend Mater, who suggests that he should talk to Doc 's mentor, Smokey in Doc 's hometown of Thomasville. McQueen catches up to Cruz, and, after revealing that he had fixed her trophy, apologizes to her, and convinces her to join him. In Thomasville, McQueen meets up with Smokey, who recounts how, despite his forced retirement, Doc found a new happiness in training McQueen. After McQueen accepts that he will never be as fast as Storm, Smokey and his friends help McQueen learn new tricks to overcome his speed disadvantage with Cruz as his sparring partner. However, during the last practice race, Cruz suddenly overtakes him, giving him a flashback to his crash, shaking his confidence. At the race in Florida, McQueen is coached by Smokey from the pits, and manages to gradually push up through the ranks. Sterling, who still believes McQueen can not win, orders Cruz back to the center, despite her wanting to stay and watch the race. McQueen overhears this, and remembers Cruz 's speech about wanting to be a racer. He devises a plan ; the next time he pits, he tells his crew to outfit Cruz in his racing number to try and finally beat Storm, against Sterling 's wishes. Cruz is initially shaken by her lack of confidence, but Smokey and McQueen help her to pull ahead. On the last lap, Cruz catches up to Storm. Storm, feeling threatened, tries to intimidate her - even to the point of ramming her against the wall, but she uses one of Doc 's tricks to repel off it, take the lead, and win. As Cruz celebrates her victory, Sterling offers her a role on his team, but she instead takes a counteroffer made by Tex Dinoco. Sterling reminds McQueen about his bet, but then McQueen 's name is shared with Cruz 's on the leaderboard as victors, since both he and Cruz raced with the winning number, thus winning the deal. Tex then goes to speak with Sterling, offering a deal. Sometime later, McQueen and Cruz return to Radiator Springs, decked out in Doc 's old color and number, respectively. McQueen reveals that Tex has bought Rust - eze from Sterling, and McQueen decides to continue racing, and to be Cruz 's crew chief. In the post-credits scene, Mater at his junkyard tries to answer an incoming call from his phone. Somehow he accidentally touches his reception antenna and his phone goes dead much to his dismay.

Production Development on Cars 3 began in 2011 after the release of Cars 2, and by March 2014 pre-production was underway. In October 2014, Pixar 's chief creative officer John Lasseter revealed at the Tokyo International Film Festival that the film would feature a tribute to Hayao Miyazaki 's film The Castle of Cagliostro, in a form of an old Citroën 2CV. Prior to the film 's release, John Lasseter, director of the previous Cars films, stated that the film had a `` very emotional story '', similar in tone to the first film. Co-writer Kiel Murray, who also co-wrote the original Cars, said of the return to the series roots, `` With these franchises you always want to know who it 's about. The first movie was about McQueen, and the second movie was a sort of off - ramp to the Mater story. We wanted to get back to the McQueen story. When we looked at what would be next for him, we wondered what that would be like both as an athlete, and also for what he was dealing with in the rest of his life. '' On January 5, 2017, it was announced that Armie Hammer and Cristela Alonzo would voice Jackson Storm and Cruz Ramirez, respectively. Two months later, Nathan Fillion, Kerry Washington and Lea Delaria joined the cast. The production utilized a new rendering system, RIS, which made scenes like the demolition derby race possible. The system was previously used on Pixar 's Finding Dory. Soundtracks There are two soundtracks released for the third film. The original motion picture soundtrack features rock / pop songs featured in the film, while the original score soundtrack features the score composed and conducted by Randy Newman.

Cars 3 had the lowest opening of the series, but nevertheless was the 16th Pixar film to debut at number one. In its second weekend, the film grossed $24.1 million, dropping to third place, behind Transformers : The Last Knight and Wonder Woman. In its third weekend the film made $9.7 million ( $14.1 million over the five - day 4th of July holiday weekend ), dropping to 5th.

Critical response On review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, the film has an approval rating of 67 % based on 193 reviews, with an average rating of 6 / 10. The website 's critical consensus reads, `` Cars 3 has an unexpectedly poignant story to go with its dazzling animation, suggesting Pixar 's most middle - of - the - road franchise may have a surprising amount of tread left. '' On Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating, the film has a score of 59 out of 100, based on reviews from 41 critics, indicating `` mixed or average reviews ''. Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of `` A '' on an A+ to F scale. In his review for Variety, Owen Gleiberman wrote, `` Cars 3 is a friendly, rollicking movie made with warmth and dash, and to the extent that it taps our primal affection for this series, it more than gets the job done. Yet in many ways it 's the tasteful version of a straight - to - DVD ( or streaming ) sequel. '' David Fear of Rolling Stone gave the film a positive review, saying : `` There 's an emotional resonance to this story about growing old, chasing glory days and the joy of passing the baton that leaves the other two films choking on its digitally rendered dust. The end goal this time out is n't just to sell a few more toys and Lightning McQueen lunchboxes. It 's actually tapping into something deeper than a corporate bottom line. '' Mike Ryan of Uproxx called the film ' The Rocky III Of The Cars Franchise, ' and wrote `` There 's a hint of sadness that seems to be present throughout Cars 3 that gives it a little more weight than the previous installments. '' Alonso Duralde of TheWrap gave the film a mixed review, saying : `` As a spawner of merchandise, Cars 3 fires on all pistons but, as a movie, it 's a harmless but never stimulating 109 minutes. '' Vicky Roach gave the film 3 out of 4 stars, saying : `` Returning to the iconic, backroads nostalgia of the original film, Cars 3 puts the flashy, unpopular middle film squarely in its rear vision mirror. The route that the filmmakers take might be familiar, but after gunning it, they take the corners like pros. '' Accolades Award Date of ceremony Category Recipient ( s ) and nominee ( s ) Result Ref.
