Not many theme parks offer a unique experience, and Disney parks are one exception. Disneyland's Autopia gave many visitors a firsthand feel of what it was like to be maneuvering a "real car", and this time, one known automaker lent a huge hand in putting the ride back for everyone to enjoy.
Honda Motors dipped in its expertise by lending a hand in partnership with The Disney Co. and would be remodeling the cars for the fabled Disney Autopia rides, AutoWeek reported. The gasoline-powered, fiberglass bodied two-seater mini cars provided the similar adrenaline rush for its riders since it opened around 60 years ago, as one of the park's original attractions.
Following almost half a year of getting closed down, Autopia's rebirth was made possible by Honda, which included a complete makeover (repaint and all) of the ride's 96 buggys in various hues plus the Honda emblem on the cars' front and back ends.
Even the tires and engines were sponsored by Honda, too. This time, Honda's GX series (where the cars got modeled from) offer a more digital performance, as well as CDI ignition to CARB, and even EPA certification, according to the publication.
In a related MiceChat post, the whole new look for Autopia exudes a colorfully nice improvement for the Disney theme park. Its huge structure makes up for its Tomorrowland '98 counterpart, which has also seen much improvement over the last ten years.
Though the entire Disneyland theme park still requires a much-needed tech upgrade, the company announced that more Honda-sponsored updos would be visible in the next months. It could be an additional slew of cars for Autopia, however, let's keep our thumbs up for further image-changing upgrades for everyone to enjoy, as per the news agency.
