Description
Mario Andretti is a veteran race car who is considered one of the most universally successful racers in history. He is a 1967 ford fairlane with a blue and tan paint scheme, with a grey front bumper and grille. He has red rims, with black tire threads and the number 11 painted in white on his doors

Trivia:
• he is based on, named after and voiced by Mario Andretti himself, a retired nascar and formula one racer. He is also one of the few racers in the cars franchise to not have his name be carified or have a pun based name
• in the Spanish version, he is voiced by Spanish formula one driver Fernando Alonso, who also made a cameo as himself in the Spanish version of cars 2
• in the German version, he was named Mika hakkinen, after the Finnish professional racing driver, Mika hakkinen, who was also his voice actor in that version of the movie
• racing number 11 also includes junior moon, chip gearings and Chris roamin
• although despite his car finder bio saying he was friends with doc and raced against him, cars 3 retcons this info as Mario does not appear in the flashback of doc racing or his crash. Even then, the context wouldn’t make any sense since Mario’s model is from the 60s and doc is from the 50s
