Disneyland plans electric upgrade for classic Autopia ride

Disneyland Resort will replace the gas-powered vehicles on its Autopia attraction with fully electric models. The change is scheduled for early 2027 to support broader sustainability targets. Officials have confirmed an agreement with state regulators to retire the current engines.

Disneyland Resort is updating the Autopia ride in Tomorrowland with electric vehicles. This will end the use of gas engines that have powered the attraction since its opening in 1955. Imagineers are now handling the design, engineering, and testing of the new ride vehicles.
