This Hanna-Barbera cartoon focuses on on Wheelie, a red superhero Volkswagen Beetle that makes his living as a professional racing and stunt car. Unlike the other vehicles in the show, Wheelie only speaks in body sound effects, but also emotes by his honking language and displaying symbols across his windshield monitor showing his inner thoughts. He can also produce any form of prop needed from his hood latch through the use of special mechanized hands. Wheelie's regular nemeses are a four-member motorcycle agency called the Chopper Bunch.
