Walt Disney Studios Park at Disneyland Paris is home to a thrilling new family-friendly attraction: Cars Route 66 Road Trip. Inspired by the iconic Route 66 and the beloved Pixar film Cars, this ride invites guests to embark on a whimsical journey through the American Southwest. While the exact duration of the ride experience itself might be a quick zip through roadside attractions, the overall adventure and immersion in the Cars universe promise to be much more extensive.
Announced recently, Cars Route 66 Road Trip is designed through the ongoing collaboration of Disney Imagineers and Pixar, ensuring an authentic and detailed experience for fans of all ages. The ride is conceived as a leisurely driving tour, allowing guests to discover quirky roadside attractions inspired by the legendary Route 66.
The boarding station itself is a sight to behold, drawing inspiration from mid-century modern architecture and thoughtfully incorporating automotive design elements. Imagine entering a vintage tourist booth, filled with maps, postcards, and decorative items that set the scene for your Route 66 escapade. This meticulous attention to detail, a hallmark of Pixar Animation Studios and Walt Disney Imagineering, extends throughout the entire attraction, promising a rich and engaging environment even before you board your ride vehicle.
Currently under construction, the loading station marks a significant milestone as the first structure built outside the original Walt Disney Studios Park perimeter. Accessible via a new road extending from Toy Story Playland, Cars Route 66 Road Trip is not just an attraction; it represents the first step in the exciting expansion of Walt Disney Studios Park. This new area promises to immerse guests even further into the Pixar universes they adore.
While specific details about the ride duration are yet to be fully revealed, guests can anticipate a ride experience typical of similar family-friendly dark rides found at Disneyland Paris – likely a delightful few minutes filled with visual storytelling and charming animatronics. However, considering the immersive theming and detailed environments, visitors should plan to spend a more substantial amount of time enjoying the entire Cars Route 66 Road Trip area. This includes soaking in the atmosphere of the queue, exploring the meticulously designed station, and perhaps even lingering after the ride to appreciate the surrounding details.
For families planning their Disneyland Paris adventure, Cars Route 66 Road Trip is poised to be a must-do attraction. Keep an eye out for further updates, including the official opening date and perhaps more insights into the ride’s length and specific features, as they become available. Get ready to start your engines and experience the magic of Route 66, Disney-Pixar style!
