“Lightning McQueen, his pit team and new pit boss Mater head around the world for the ‘Race of Champions’, taking place in five different countries: Tokyo, Germany, Italy, a 24-hour race in France and London. However, Mater, involved in a case of mistaken identity, saves the life of a British secret agent Aston Martin called Finn McMissile, and finds himself embroiled in his spy world.”

Star racecar Lightning McQueen (voice of Owen Wilson) and the incomparable tow truck Mater (voice of Larry the Cable Guy) take their friendship to exciting new places in Cars 2 when they head overseas to compete in the first-ever World Grand Prix to determine the world’s fastest car. But the road to the championship is filled with plenty of potholes, detours and hilarious surprises when Mater gets caught up in an intriguing adventure of his own: international espionage. Torn between assisting Lightning McQueen in the high-profile race and towing the line in a top-secret spy mission, Mater’s action-packed journey leads him on an explosive chase through the streets of Japan and Europe, trailed by his friends and watched by the whole world. Adding to the fast-paced fun is a colorful new all-car cast that includes secret agents, menacing villains and international racing competitors.
