How Old is Lightning McQueen? In the original Cars movie, McQueen is in his early-to-mid twenties, and reaches the apex of his career in his late thirties in Cars 2 , before approaching obsolescence and retirement in his early forties through Cars 3 .
Sally is mid-30's to early 40's at the youngest. Lightning is a rookie in this universe's version of NASCAR. I think the oldest NASCAR rookie this year was 26. Even in the best conditions, we are looking at a 10-15 year gap between Lightning and Sally.
Cars 3puts McQueen back in the spotlight, and the film acknowledges the more than 10 years that have passed between the first and third movies. Lightning McQueen is now the elder statesman of the Piston Cup racing series but still one of the fastest at the beginning of the film.
Smokey is a 1946 Hudson Pick-Up Truck painted maroon (though in the movie, he had worn away, and was orange and brown). Written on his sides are "Smokey's Automotive Service", and on his rear is "Best Dang Garage In Town".

Will there be Cars 4?
Anticipation for Cars 4 is high, but Disney has not addressed any details for the movie. Producers have shown openness to expanding the franchise, with potential for a new lightning McQueen narrative. Story details remain a mystery, focusing on potential Cruz Ramirez involvement and moving away from McQueen.
It is unknown why Holley did not appear in Cars 3, but it is possible that the nature of her work meant that she was busy with her job around the time of the third film.

“'Cars 3' is a return to focus on Lightning McQueen,” said producer Kevin Reher. In the 10 years between "Cars" and "Cars 3," McQueen has had quite a career. He's won several Piston Cups and numerous sponsor dollars from the Rusteze Corporation, makers of bumper ointment.
Like McQueen, she's not directly based on a single car, but her design elements mix and match that of a 2017 Toyota 86/Scion Fr-S and the 90s Honda Civic Del Sol.
In Cars 3, Sally continues to be the love-interest of Lightning McQueen, and attends his races to show support. She is present when Lightning crashes while trying to keep up with the nextgens, and gives Lightning the inspiration to continue racing after he is rebuilt.
Sally Carrera (or simply known as "Sally", now known as Sally McQueen) is the tritagonist in Cars and a supporting character in Cars 2 and a main character in Carasodes. Her boyfriend or her husband is Lightning McQueen, whom she calls "stickers" (due to the fact that he has stickers looking like headlights).
On November 2, 1956, he married Filipina actress and dancer Neile Adams, with whom he had a daughter, Terry Leslie (June 5, 1959 – March 19, 1998), and a son, Chad (born December 28, 1960). McQueen and Adams divorced in 1972.
Lightning even started to slow down because of the Next-Gens arriving and ended the season horribly with a near career-ending crash. Months later, McQueen recovered from the crash and was ready to race again.
Lightning McQueen's childish reaction isn't much better than ours often is. But his girlfriend Sally Carrera (voiced by Bonnie Hunt) provides sound advice.
Also John Lasseter said that Mater is this idiot-savant when it comes to minute rare car parts. The term 'idiot-savant' is an old term for someone who is an autistic savant.
In Cars 3, it is revealed that Mater and Holley's relationship is still going very strong and at the end of Cars 3, Mater distracts Sterling by mentioning that he has church flaps, hinting that he's someday getting married to Holley Shiftwell. He still loves her unconditionally and she still loves him unconditionally.
Finn McMissile is a 1965 Faultless GT, a fictional car that draws inspiration from various cars of the 1960's, like the Aston Martin DB5, but is primarily based on the 1958 Peerless GT.
Sally returns in Cars 3. She attends all of Lightning's races along with Mater in the pits to encourage him. She is present when McQueen crashes and rushes to him. Four months later, McQueen is still depressed and ruminating on the aftermath of his crash.
The film's story takes place during the 2016-2017 Piston Cup seasons. Long-time champion Lightning McQueen is beginning to struggle with new next-generation competitors, including the cocky Jackson Storm. Following a large crash, McQueen turns to racing trainer and technician Cruz Ramirez for help with recovery.
Even though Chick didn't appear in Cars 2, players can download him for Cars 2: The Video Game. It was also unknown why he didn't appear in the second film, as it never revealed what really happened with him following his pyrrhic victory in the first film.
The world premiere of the film took place at the El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood on June 18, 2011. Cars 2 was released in 4,115 theaters in the USA and Canada, setting a record-high for a G-rated film and for Pixar.
Pretty much yeah. Pixar doesn't like acknowledging the majority of Cars 2 besides the World Grand Prix and I guess the dent being connected to Mater meant it was connected to the spy part of the movie (despite him getting it in Radiator Springs) and might've just took it out to ignore the film even more.
It is implied that Doc died prior to the events of Cars 2, and he appears in flashback sequences in Cars 3. Doc is voiced by Paul Newman in Cars, Cars 3 (the latter via archive audio recordings) and Cars: the Video Game, and Corey Burton in all other media.
