"Positively glided, too true!"
Gerald, Cars: The Videogame

Gerald is a colleague of Fletcher that visited Radiator Springs in his debut appearance, Cars: The Videogame. He is a British race car with a shy personality, usually depending on Fletcher to speak for him.

History[]

Cars: The Videogame[]

In Cars: The Videogame, Gerald and Fletcher are awaiting Lightning McQueen's arrival at Flo's V8 Café. Halfway through their discussion with McQueen, two Mexican cars named El Guapo and Papo show up to join in the competition. While Fletcher does most of the talking, Gerald appears to side with Fletcher.

Gerald can later be found at Flo's V8 Café not too long after Lightning returns from his first Piston Cup race, striking up a competition between him and Fletcher, El Guapo and Papo. They get into an argument about who has better rims, with Gerald appearing to side with Fletcher. He then competes in a race through the desert area east of the courthouse.

He is not seen again until Radiator Springs Grand Prix, where he is one of the competitors, alongside Lightning, El Guapo, Fletcher, and Chick.

Cars: Mater-National Championship[]

In Cars: Mater-National Championship, Gerald appears as a minor non-playable character that is first seen as an opponent in the North Willy's Butte race. He is not involved in the cutscene, so it is presumed that he was recruited to join the race.

He can later be found as a competitor in Ornament Valley Airport, and again in Luigi and Guido's Team Relay 3, where he is on an opposing team with Fletcher and Yuri. Gerald also appears as an opponent in Canyon Run.

General information[]

Physical description[]

Gerald appears to be a Jaguar XK-E, known as a Jaguar E-Type in his home country, mixed with the Toyota 200GT. His front end, especially his headlights, also resemble a Triumph Spitfire or Triumph GT6, though the headlights also have a bit of Lotus Europa. He is painted gray, with the number 4 painted on his doors, surrounded by a white circle. His license plate reads "Gerald".

Personality and traits[]

Gerald seems to be very shy, speaking only when hit or performing well in a race. He is often seen hiding behind Fletcher while he does the talking, staying quiet and observing the situations they are in. Because of his quotes, he seems to be very intelligent.

Trivia[]

Gerald weighs a feather

This glitch as it happens.

  • In the PC version of Cars: The Videogame, his model is shaped slightly different, his side window is different, his headlights are larger, and his hood is taller. He also has differently-colored eyes, one is normally brown, and the other yellow.
  • All of Gerald's voice clips were re-enacted in Cars: Mater-National Championship, likely because they sounded too similar to those of Count Spatula, who was also re-enacted.
  • His icon in Cars: The Videogame depicts him only as a Jaguar, without any Porsche traits.
  • According to his physics file, Gerald is one of the lightest cars, meaning if the player were to brake directly affront a CPU-controlled Gerald, the opponent would slam into them, flip over, and "skate" forwards, and then the game will automatically flip them back up and they will continue as normal.
  • He shares the same name as the character out of South Park (Gerald Broflovski).
