Abstract
A Disneyland attraction where visitors of all ages drive specially designed cars around an enclosed track. It was first set up before President Eisenhower signed development plans for the US interstate highway system back in 1955, and represented the future of American motorways. Over the years, Autopia has been updated to match the latest versions of America´s neverending ´automobile utopia´. Originally a taster for freedom to drive, these days it includes a wider driving ´experience´, where visitors watch animations of a futuristic three-dimensional city inhabited by talking cars discussing life´s challenges.
