He works with his business partner and best friend, [[Guido]]. |

- ""Luigi follow only the Ferraris.""
- —Luigi to Lightning McQueen after learning that McQueen doesn't race with Ferraris., [[{{{3}}}]]
Luigi is a character who is the owner of Luigi's Casa Della Tires, and a long time resident of Radiator Springs. Initially called "Lou" in early concepts of Cars, Luigi's name was changed for unknown reasons. He usually has the role of a supporting character that assists Lightning McQueen and other characters by providing tires. He also makes frequent playable appearances in the Cars video games. He works with his business partner and best friend, Guido.
History
Cars
Radiator Springs residents gather outside of Luigi's shop to watch Lightning.
In Cars, Luigi is unhappy with Lightning at first, as he is only a Piston Cup racer, and not a Ferrari. However, Luigi begins to like him after a while, like the other townsfolk do, and joins Lightning's crew at the Los Angeles International Speedway.
Towards the end of the film, Michael Schumacher, Costanzo Della Corsa and Antonio Veloce Eccellente come to Luigi's shop, causing him and Guido to faint in excitement.
Cars: The Video Game
Luigi in Cars: The Video Game.
In Cars: The Video Game, Luigi stars in his own mini-game, Luigi to the Rescue, in which the player controls him as he sets out to find all of the missing tires and return them to the shop within the given time limit. Despite being playable in story mode, he is not controllable in road races and other events in arcade mode, though he will occasionally appear as an opponent.
Cars: Radiator Springs Adventures
Luigi appears in the game Luigi's Fantastico Fun!, in which he drops lots of tires so that Guido can catch them with his forklift arms.
Mater and the Ghostlight
In Mater and the Ghostlight, Luigi listens as Sheriff tells the story of a mythical vehicle called the Ghostlight, scaring the rest of the town, especially Mater. Deciding to pull a practical joke, he and the other townspeople place a lamp on Mater's tow hook, scaring him all the way around Carburetor County.
Cars: Mater-National Championship

In arcade mode, Luigi is a playable character, with one alternate paint job to unlock, which is the one he is wearing during the cut-scene for Luigi and Guido's Team Relay 1 in story mode. He stats are 1 for boost, 4 for acceleration, 4 for handling, and 3 for stability.

At Luigi's Casa Della Tires, Luigi and Guido will be there. Guido will change the rider's tires, then they will go to the starting line and start the race.
General information
Physical description and traits
Luigi is a 1959 Fiat 500, like his mother.
His license plate reads "44.5-10.8". Luigi is painted yellow, with chrome rims and a sunroof that is modified to look like hair, and also may be by Vinyl Toupee. In The Radiator Springs 500½, he has the bottom half of his bodywork changed to honeydew.
Powers and abilities
Luigi searching for tires in Radiator Springs.
Luigi has a vast knowledge of tires and everything related to them. Whenever they go missing, Luigi is eager to find them, at one point even exploring all around Carburetor County on his own just to hunt them down.
According to Cars: Mater-National Championship, he is apparently a good racer, with good acceleration and handling, though his boost is weak.
Personality
Luigi is big-hearted, gregarious and excitable, and also has a very large liking of Ferrari racing.
Relationships
Wide Chick Pitty, Bruiser Bukowski and various other Team HTB members surprised at Guido's performance.
Luigi's best friend in the world is Guido, a small pitty he's known since they were young and lived in Italy with Uncle Topolino and Mama Topolino. Despite their good friendship, they were known to fight a lot, but still made up in the end.
He has also been shown to be on good terms with the rest of the Radiator Springs residents, particularly Lightning McQueen.
Luigi seems to dislike Chick Hicks and his team, specifically Bruiser Bukowski and Wide Chick Pitty, after they tried to make fun of Guido, but were rendered speechless after they watched Guido change McQueen's tires.
