Description And Comments

An elaborate miniature freeway with gasoline-powered cars that will travel at speeds of up to seven miles an hour. The attraction design, with its sleek cars, auto noises, highway signs, and even an "off-road" section, is quite alluring. In fact, the cars poke along on a track that leaves the driver with little to do. Pretty ho-hum for most adults and teenagers, but at least it’s much more visually stimulating than the unthemed Magic Kingdom version.

Touring Tips

This ride is appealing to the eye but definitely expendable on a schedule for adults. Preschoolers, however, love it. If your preschooler is too short to drive, ride along and allow him or her to steer (the car runs on a guide rail) while you work the foot pedal.

A mom from North Billerica, Massachusetts, writes:

I was truly amazed by the number of adults in the line. Please emphasize to your readers that these cars travel on a guided path and are not a whole lot of fun. The only reason I could think of for adults to be in line was an insane desire to go on absolutely every ride. The other feature about the cars is that they tend to pile up at the end, so it takes almost as long to get off as it did to get on. Parents riding with their preschoolers should keep the car going as slow as it can without stalling. This prolongs the preschooler's joy and decreases the time you will have to wait at the end.

Be aware that FASTPASS is oly offered on busier days and doesn't work very well at Autopia. It's typical for the wait in the FASTPASS return line to exceed 20 minutes. If Autopia ranks high on your pop chart, you might be better off riding the first hour the park is open and using the standby line.

Autopia Wait Times

This chart shows you roughly how long you'll wait for Autopia when you visit on a day with a given Disneyland Crowd Level. The blue bars represent the average "peak" wait time (that is, how long the line will at its busiest). The bottom and top black lines represent the range of peak wait times to expect (for you fellow nerds out there: it's the 5th percentile and 95th percentile of peak wait times). Please note that these are estimates, and for a better forecast for your travel dates, see Autopia Wait Times.

Special Comments

Boring for adults; great for preschoolers. Must be at least 32" tall to ride, and at least one guest in car must be 54".
