Discover Autopia

Our tips:

Autopia

Autopia is Tomorrowland's classic car ride. You drive a souped-up coupé along winding roads. It's the only Tomorrowland attraction that was already there on Disneyland Park's opening day in 1955.

The concept

When the cars first hit the road in 1955, they tapped into a new American fascination: the "freeway". Over the years the roads and cars have been updated, but the fun has stayed the same. Each car has a real accelerator and steering wheel and seats two adults or three children.

The Experience

You put your foot down and drive along a twisting course with slopes, just like in a real car. Along the way you'll spot, among other things, a Honda robot. The cars have bumpers front and back, because a little tap from another car can happen.

Drive solo from 137 cm

If you're at least 137 cm (54 inches) tall, you can drive on your own. Children from 81 cm (32 inches) can also steer, with someone of at least 137 cm beside them.

Braking is easy

Want to slow down? Simply take your foot off the accelerator. A guide rail under the car keeps you on course.

Look around you

You drive under a little bridge and see the Matterhorn in the distance.

Visitor information

You must be at least 81 cm (32 inches) tall. Driving solo without an accompanying rider is allowed from 137 cm (54 inches). Children under 7 must be accompanied by someone aged 14 or older. Disney advises against the ride if you have high blood pressure, heart, back or neck problems or motion sickness, and for pregnant women. Rider Switch is available: whoever waits with a child can ride afterwards without queuing again (maximum two people). Wheelchair users must transfer. The attraction is part of Lightning Lane Multi Pass, which lets you pick a time slot in the app and spend less time queuing.

Behind the wheel

For many children, Autopia is their first chance to drive themselves. A ride full of pride, for parents and children alike.
