TLDR: The Cars x adidas Adizero Electric II brings Lightning McQueen to the gridiron as a performance-focused American football cleat. Racing graphics, the number 95 and a collection of sponsor logos turn the lightweight model into a tribute to the Pixar film. It was released on 9 September 2026 for 130€.
Twenty years after Disney and Pixar’s “Cars” arrived in cinemas, adidas is taking Radiator Springs’ most famous racing car into a new sport. The low-cut Adizero Electric II provides the foundation, with its speed-oriented construction proving a natural match for Lightning McQueen and his signature “Ka-chow!” attitude.
The flexible synthetic upper is dominated by vivid red. Yellow lightning bolts, the number 95 and Rust-eze branding transfer McQueen’s racing livery almost directly onto the cleat. Various fictional sponsor logos from the “Cars” universe cover the forefoot, while the character’s eyes look out from the tongue above the laces. Even the Three Stripes are incorporated into the dynamic motorsport graphics.
Beneath the animated design, the Adizero Electric II remains a functional piece of American football footwear. Its low profile is engineered for mobility and rapid acceleration, while the studded multi-ground outsole supplies traction during sharp changes of direction. Special “Cars” packaging completes the anniversary release.
