Autopia at Disneyland began in 1955. I likely went to Disneyland the first time in 1955 or 1956 at age 7 or 8

Fire Up the Hot Rod

Cruise the scenic winding roads of this classic attraction in a souped-up coupe. 

Pick up the pace as you rumble under a small bridge and see iconic attractions like the Matterhorn in the distance. Spot Honda’s Humanoid Robot and Bird along the road. 

Featuring a working gas pedal and steering wheel, each classy chassis seats 2 adults or 3 children and navigates curves and inclines just like the real thing.

Safety First

Vehicles are equipped with front and rear bumpers and an undercarriage guide rail to safeguard your trip. Need to brake? Just ease off the accelerator to slow down.

Designed for Smaller Drivers

Guests who are at least 54 inches (137 cm) tall may drive their own gas-powered car. 

Guests who are at least 32 inches (81 cm) tall are also invited to drive, as long as they are accompanied by someone at least 54 inches (137 cm) tall.

Motoring Through History

Autopia is the only existing Tomorrowland attraction dating back to Disneyland Park’s opening day in 1955. When the cars first took to the road, they captured America’s fascination with the latest transportation innovation, the “freeway.” 

Over the years, the roadways and car styles have been updated, but the fun stays the same.
