**Jackson Storm** is the main antagonist of *Cars 3*.

Following his debut in 2017, Storm proved to be highly talented, hitting top speeds that veteran racers struggled with reaching (210+ mph) Storm's stellar performance sparked interest in the *next-generation* of racers, and other Piston Cup teams began replacing their veterans with newer, more powerful racers. Storm achieved many wins during his first full season, and set the record for fastest lap of all time at the Florida International Speedway. He is also part of the next generation of high-tech racers. He is a arrogant racer because of his greatness.
Knowing how talented and successful he is, Jackson has a large ego, and disrespects other racers beyond simple trashtalk. One of Storm's biggest rivals was Lightning McQueen, who brutally crashed while attempting to keep up with Storm at the Los Angeles 500. After a long absence, McQueen returned to the Piston Cup for the Florida 500, but decided to switch himself out for Cruz Ramirez, who took advantage of Storm's weaknesses, allowing her to pass him and win the race. His racing number is 20, however, it is designed with the design of 2.0 sponsored by IGNTR to resemble the next-generation.
