As Guests wind through this racetrack viewing platform, a giant video screen plays humorous animated scenes of humanlike cars as they discuss life and provide insights into the world as cars see it. From here, Guests reach the boarding area, where they board one of three distinctly styled car models for a fun-filled ride aboard the new Autopia. Each car can seat up to two adults or three children. As motorists cruise the Tomorrowland roadways, they experience the world from a car's perspective. Humorous billboards along the highway advertise directly to the vehicle.
Motorists encounter unexpected road hazards during their journey.
Cast Members at the Autopia are part of a professional auto track crew, like those seen at racing events. They direct the test drivers to the vehicles, providing any aid or instructions necessary. At the end of the journey, they help drivers stop the vehicles and safely exit the attraction. The Autopia is the only existing Tomorrowland attraction dating back to opening day, July 17, 1955. When the cars first took to the road, they captured America's fascination with the latest transportation innovation, the freeway.
