- Visit www.InsideTheMa... for more about the updated Test Track ride!
This video takes you on a complete walk through the updated Test Track queue, on the ride, and around the post-show areas. Included is the interactive queue Chevrolet Design Center in which guests virtually create their own custom car designs based on a variety of attributes, then take that design with them on the ride to see how it scores. The post-show area was not 100% finished when this video was recorded (12/1/12) so the photo area and driving game were not yet available, but the Chevy showroom is seen along with the gift shop. The ride portion features binaural audio, so wear headphones for the best viewing experience.

This is certainly the best ride I've been on at Disney. The entire ride is amazing; the design, the way you interact with the ride and your car, the layout, this ride is truly amazing. I went to Epcot for a day and rode this ride twice. The second time the ride broke down for maybe 10 minutes but the ride makes up for it completely. My favorite part is the fast part just before the power section where the door barely opens. Me and my friends all love this ride.
Same! I love the power test when you are outside. The turns feel like you are really in a car on the highway. It’s amazing!
After watching videos on both versions of Test Track, I honestly prefer this version. The old one seemed kinda outdated and a little bland. I mean, parts like the temperature test rooms and the near-collision with the semi truck (the latter of which they still have) were very cool, but the other tests (for instance; braking, turns, etc.) were kinda slow with the constant braking and turning. Besides, wasn't the idea for the original conceived back in '76? Almost 40 years ago! Technology and automobile tests have totally changed since then. This one seems more current. I'm reading that people hate this because of TRON. The only features that remind me of Tron are the neon light effects. Just so you know, the sponsors over at GM (Chevrolet is one of their brands) helped the Imagineers with features of the update. I'm sure they know what they're doing, they've been a sponsor of the pavilion since October 1st, 1982.
Don't agree? Then I prefer the World of Motion.
They have to do braking and turning test to day to. Also it would be fun to see a car get smashed before the acual smash. Also, to much torn like. I like the consept of designing your own cars. But they have removed some elements that is still crusual to car designs and testing.
Anders Mostue There are some things I didn't know about car tests before typing that Comment... IDK if they will update it soon because so far it's still a huge hit in Epcot. GM has been sponsor since 1982 and when the guests want to see something new, that's when they know when to Update it. It would be cool to see a car-smashing scene.
Well, cars testing as of today standard has to pass several types of testing before any mass production: The weather testing, heat and cold testing for the engine. The wheels as of how much beating they can take and how fast they can get the car. The aerodynamic of the car. Brakes at several different speed including how fast the car stop at 100km/h to 0. How good the car turns at several speeds including a 90 degree turn at 45 km/h in both directions. The speed limit and acceleration from 0 to 100km/h. And of course the crash, which is the most crucial point in car design.
Besides what was shown and explained in the original Test Track, technologies to test those features of a car have been improved as technology has
Wait. Test Track 2.0 opened in 2012, The Same Year that EPCOT turned 30. The Same Year EPCOT opened, "Tron" was released. In 2012,"Tron" Turned 30 Years Old.
Oh My God.
The "Tron" aesthetic of Test Track 2.0 was an INTENTIONAL TRIBUTE TO TRON!
Or Maybe it's just a coincidence.
Either Way, Great Update of A Great Ride.
Probably a coincidence for Updating purposes. They would do a whole new _Tron_ attraction if there was anything regarding it.
Illuminati confirmed :p
+Zice033 You commented this a long time ago it appears, but I felt compelled to tell you that the voice of the narrator on the ride is Bruce Boxleitner, the actor who voices Tron in most (if not all) animated and video game versions of the series. Safe to say your theory is highly supported (:
it is a tribute to tron

16:38 "AND I WAS LIKE, AND I WAS LIKE, AND I WAS LIKE"
Hehehe😄😄 I heard that part too! 😄
lol
Wish you would've stayed in the first part of the queue longer.. I love that music. And to hear it with barely any other noises (like loud people, when its crowded) is just amazing.
love this ride and the queue music it sounds great. best ride ever! :)
I loved the old test track, I don't want it to change this drastically!!!!!
I hope this ride inspired some young minds to do engineering in the future. As slight as the chance might seem, I still hope so.
This ride somewhat added to my huge interest in car design. I’m actually gunning for a career in car design in the future
I'm back at this video after 8 years: I've ridden this ride twice, and it's amazing. This video is what sparked my inspiration, too.
Test Track is cool, I miss Disney World. Oh the memories. I hope to go again soon
ik..Haven't been there in 6 years..
Leon S. Rondellini' try 12 years..... >_
damn shit just got real.. ^
Yay!!! I am on the grid. I loved the old test track. But still love the new ride.
Before comments start slamming me for my opinion, I gotta say I really enjoyed Test Track when I rode it October 2015 and May 2016
It was fun competing against other vehicles and seeing the ride updated this way for me. I was kinda glad that this update didn't have a cheesy backstory and instead it was straight forward and fun for the most part. And I don't mind backstories for rides , but having backstories gets annoying if you ride the ride multiple times.
Although I will say I wish that the update had a better effect at the capability test instead of sounds and little fans unlike the older version which actually made you feel hot and cold. I'd also like to say that I like how the older version was a bit more realistic, for example, the signs on the ride were like real road signs. The same also goes for the Eco-friendly efficiency part as that was just being scanned with some effects.
But all in all I love both versions and each are fun in their ways and I'm glad that the Test Track was updated.
This ride is so much better at night.
Why are people complaining about 2.0?? It's EPCOT. The Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow! That means that everything in EPCOT should feel futuristic, and that's what 2.0 is. 1.0 was outdated, and GM made a good move by refurbishing this ride.
That may be true but its a bit overly done.
is EPCOT =Experimental Prototype Community Of Tomorrow!
+VincentWeir, explains why that feature wasn't there when I last rode it. lol We didn't get to design our vehicle at all, but the ride was still fun. This version looks way better!
VincentWeir this ride has less details..it was a downgrade and a cheap one
Expected more
I'm ok with the 2.0 update for the same reasons that the OP mentioned. In fact, I'm fine with as many updates as they want to make, AS LONG AS they don't eventually turn it into some Disney Frozen bullshit like they did with the Norway Pavilion. EPCOT was not meant to be just another expansion land of the Magic Kingdom. Walt would NEVER have approved of the crap they're doing to his theme parks across the world.
DCA is no longer a California Adventure. It's just another breeding ground of plugging in rides based on Disney characters rather than an actual California adventure.
And I fear EPCOT may soon be following suit. Frozen, taking over Maelstrom, is just the beginning :(.
Oh, and don't even get me started on what they've done and what they are going to be doing to Universe of Energy. I'm also looking at you, The Living Seas.
i love the new and improved version of the ride. loved the old version, was blessed to ride it in the past but can't wait in the future the next time i come to the disney world resort to ride it in person. THE NEW VERSION LOOKS ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!
Am I the only one that loves this version? Sure, the original will always be a nostalgic classic, but this is extra magical!
SEVENTEENCINEMA Agreed, I love this version as well. I thought it was a great experience!
Agreed.
Same!
Same
I love both versions
THIS IS DEFINITELY BETTER THAN THE OLD ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Considering Epcot is all about the future. This update was needed badly. The old Test Track was amazing, don't get me wrong, but it was outdated and quite bland compared to what Epcot is about.
I'm glad they updated it. They wouldn't have done it if they thought it was going to fail. Disney knows what's up. They aren't stupid.
I'm yet to go on this new one though. I went in 2007, 2008 and 2011 and all 3 times, I rode the original Test Track and loved it! Hopefully might go back in 2016 and ride this bad boy.
Callum Fletcher While I agree Tech Track may have been a bit out of place with it's old design considering it was in Future World, I'm not happy with the new look. It's far too sleek.
To me, Tech Track is about showing what the testing process of our cars is. The old clutter and disarray of having the rid in such a warehouse - like setting added to this theme. This new thing is a bland forgettable test track wannabe.
I can agree that Test Track could have used an update, what with all the new technology in our cars, but this.......THING..... if this is what tech track is now, then I cannot acknowledge this ride exists anymore. This was not an update. This was mutilation of everything Test Track was trying to do, and what it was.
Figura
+LegolasNordark too sleek? You seen the direction electric cars are going? It's all space-age stuff. BMW i8. Rimac One. FF Zero1. High tech spaceship like factories with minimal workforce and high automation.
+Will Davis I know, I know, but......it's just such a huge departure from the original style, and maybe it's because they want a "simulation" feel to it? It's in this weird hybrid land of Future-but-still-tangible, and I think it suffers because of that. If they want to make it all futuristic and digital simulation to test against your own car, then I don't think they went far enough.
make it stop its been going on for too long bring back the old test track its already 4 years old this version and it feels more out dated then the old one.
I loved this ride so much it was my favorite in Epcot to be honest
I understand how epcot is all about the future and this more futuristic, but I still like the original better
Same
I agree
Faster is not always better, unless you're 12.
Ulysses North I have to be honest. I DO love the new update for Test Track, but im still going to miss the old one.
Touring.com/aircars
Yes, I agree with you...it does fit in better. The original was awesome, I loved the quirky queue area music, but this should be really cool.
I had trip to Florida last weekend. And me and my Dad were waiting in line for an hour or two. We were ready to leave. But, we didn't. Since there were no other exits. We got into one of the cars and I said to my Dad, "This better be worth it..". I do admit it was really fun. What sucked is that the ride is so short, but the wait was so long.. ;-; /sobs, my feet hurt so bad.
The ride actually gave me pain in my chest .. although the ride was fun.. I don't think I would go back. Hahaha .. from what I heard from others who've rode Test Track in the past, the line to the ride has always been that long! It's crazy.
I cant believe how much its changed. Im going to miss the old goofier version but this one is really cool!
man so many people complaining about how to old test track was so much better, I LOVE this version compared to the old one. I like the que better, designing your own car is amazing. And the ride seems so much more epcot than the old version.
I LOVE DIS RIDE! I've been thru both.
Best ride there hands down.
PrimalPolar I agree
I love the music that's playing in the lobby when the car video is playing. I want it!!!
Actually, I liked the old one because it looked more realistic and yes, it was outdated, but this ride isn't fun for younger kids anymore. I think it just looks confused. I liked how it looked like you were really testing the car in the facility, going through the trees, the brake test, hot and cold test, and I don't even really like the new car feature. It doesn't REALLY change the car, it just kills time in line. I know a lot of you are going to disagree, but a lot of you are also going to agree, so whatever. This is my opinion.
Best market research ploy by Chevrolet ever! 'What car do you want?' the ultimate question ANY car designing company wants the answer for... absolutely brilliant way of collecting a cross section of data!
I personally love the ride considering it was my first time ever. It's all about having fun getting that experience and I gotten all of that. Sometimes you gotta update things to keep young people coming. If you don't like how it is now then don't ride it simply put 🤷🏾♀️
I LOVED this ride as a little kid!
For everyone saying how they ruined the ride.. think about it this way. The old Test Track was outdated. It didn't belong in Epcot's "Future World". Imagineers got the idea for the old test Track by visiting a car testing facility back in 1976. Yes, 38 years ago. And by the original opened, it was already outdated by 22 years. Please tell me how saying the old one was better makes any sense. Yes, it had more of a story to it, but it needed to be changed from the beginning. It was showing how cars were currently being tested. If you didn't know, Epcot means "Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow". Yes, "tomorrow" meaning not "today". Even though it may not look like an actual car being tested now, it still fits Epcot's theme much better than before. If you think the old one was more futuristic than the one shown in this video, you need help.
Scott Anders my god YOU HAVE SEEN THE LIGHT!
Well put it this way... I have never been on it, and came to youtube to see what it's all about because I'm going to Epcot next week. I watched the vid of the old one first not knowing about the upgrade, and had no real desire to go on it. Thought it looked old fashioned and boring. But then I saw the video of the upgrade and now I'm definitely going on it. This is from someone who has never been on either and is not swayed by the nostalgia of the old one. 2.0 looks much more inviting to me.
OMG!!!!!! The last time i saw and rode this was BEFORE they started redoing it. I WAS FLIPPING OUT WHILE WATCHING THIS VIDEO!!!! ITS NOT THE SAME AT ALL!!!! THEY TOOK IT TO THE NEXT LEVEL!!!! I guess they have a sponsor now? Chevrolet. I CANT WAIT TO GO BACK!!!!
I rode Test Track when I was 8 and it was the original version. This is completely different from what I rode. I remember making my own Driver's License in the original and getting so excited that I "had a Driver's License" lol.
yeah personally i think the old one is better, it looks more realistic, even though that's not really what "future world" is about
thank god! i'm glad they've done that. and hmmm i don't know why they've re-themed it, i always loved the theming for test track. it made more sense! thanks :)
Next time I go to Disney world again ill go on test track I been on the old one in 2009. this one looks cooler.
I love the queue music!
Why not just call this ride "Tron: The Grid?"
Cam Jones No Tron: The Ride brought to you by General Motors
Adam Smith now brought to you by Chevrolet
Dude u made one bad ass ride! Now that is the future design for the bright future of GM. Longer lower wider. Just like Harley Earls design ideas.
I personally think the original test track was executed a little better because it felt more "raw" and test development like. This feels very manufactured and controlled. I haven't ridden the new version but I believe the simplicity of the old one suited the ride better. It's still a cool ride though.
The old version had a much more "genuine" feeling if you know what I mean.
This is the bestest & greatest ride in the world. I love this ride.
closest thing we got to the original epcot center :/
I LOVED THAT RIDE SO MUCH!!!!
All those young kids think the car they "created" is going to be the one they ride...
when I went on 2012, that's what I thought... LOL...
+Dan Dowling ?
+Bananas eat Tacos I went in December of 2012 about 12 days after this video was posted. Luckily the ride recently re=opened just before I showed up. It was awesome. I recommend riding it at night.
lol I went to ride it, but I thought that too, but it’s just the info on the SimCar, I also hate OnStar, it’s annoying, but eventually it’s the fastest ride at Walt Disney World and in any Disney park, like always every SimCar at test track is the same just a little car test, but if you want the cars you really designed, like this reply, and agree by liking DarkPark’s reply too
I loved this ride!!
Whether you like the new version or not, you’re absolutely lying if you think this doesn’t look visually stunning!
I know! It's so cool
Can't wait to go to this awesome ride!! The music is so cool, and it is a cool ride that it is better than the original ride!
I don't understand the point of wanting to make your own car. I just want to get on the ride as quick as possible.
Dogeicken Would you rather sit in line doing nothing?
Blue That is what you will do until you get through the designing.
+Dogeicken they do that so you have something to do in line. The wait time is the same without it
+Brennen Walker no he means the room where you go and design your car, which is then ranked against the other cars.
+Dogeicken It's making the ride more "interactive." Frankly, I love rides like that. I actually enjoyed making my own car and competing with the other creations.
I thought this was hands down ,one of the best rides in Disney,much better than the original.
Who’s here after 2.0 closed!!!😢
Me
Me and I'm going back to Disney in August so I''m sad I won't be able to ride this.
Always liked this ride
It’s a lot different now since it was renovated but I was on this a couple of weeks ago with my grandson and loved it
Who else misses the original version?
me, i like this version and all but its nothing compared to the first one. I doubt that they will change it back.
TheBazinga314 You mean World of Motion? me! : )
Emmy Gerard Actually, no I meant the original version of Test Track. It was so much better than Tron Track. Although WOM looked like a cool ride but I never got the chance to ride it since it closed when I was not old enough to ride any rides. I wish I did!
TheBazinga314 Sorry. I know what you meant. I was just kidding but still wanted to bring WOM up because I miss it so much. I wish you could have experienced it! I haven't gone on this new Test Track version yet but I liked the old one and am at least disappointed with the video for this one.
This looks amazing!! It looks like it fits into Future World's continuity now! I hope all of the attractions in Future World start to fit into this theme better.
The truck scares me everytime lol and I know its there
How old are you?
Can't wait to try out this ride!
New Test Track is SOOO much more fun then the old one.
This ride is amazing 😍. Can't wait till ride it again soon ☺️
I liked the original version much better. It had a point. The cars actually went through tests. Now its just a dark room with Blacklights and cardboard cutouts everywhere. The heat and cold tests are completely gone. The new queue is neat, but the car designing part is just a way to keep you occupied while you wait in line, and it literally has no effect on the actual ride. They didn't even bother to change the freaking ride vehicles. Its not worth more than a 15 minute wait, ESPECIALLY if you've ridden the original, but since its at Epcot which has like 3 rides, the wait times will always be long.
Rode this in March.This ride is awesome. I really like the re-design. It has a Tron feel to it which is amazing, plus the car design part was a lot of fun. Disney at its best!
What happened to World of Motion? Next you are going to tell me they replaced Horizons with some crazy space flight simulator. Oh well, at least The Wonders of Life pavillion is still open.
Wonders of Life pavilion is closed. Only opens for the Flowers and Garden Festival.
markbundles2, he was joking...
NOT SO VERY FUNNY, I MISS HORIZONS.. but it was So good I can see it in my mind!
Ben Jacobs No he wasn't
Thanks for posting this. It looks awesome.
The old test track looked better why did they change it?
it's pretty obvious; epcot revolves around the future. Previously, Test Track appeared as a gigantic marketing campaign, which it was (and still is) but now it appeals to that "future" facade.
I still miss the old one... and i never got to go on it.
Because it was outdated since they opened it.
I know what you mean. It was super 80's, but everything else was great. All they had to do was re-record new footage of the people narrators from today.
I agree with Scott. The new one does fit Future World a lot better, but I always thought the old one had a more genuine feeling. I still like Test Track now that I've been on the new version.
I think the old ride was awesome with the history of cars and testing tracks. That being said I also like this version as well. Just glad I was able to ride the other before it was changed.
They need to change it back
This ride looks awesome can't wait to go on it! I love the whole futuristic thing now it really fits future world
I liked 1.0 more because it was more like real life, so it felt more realistic. That truck at 12:13 doesn't have the same effect it did in 1.0, now that it looks like a hologram.
2.0 version's like it's been fueled with 20 cups of hot coffee XD I went on it and yea... it's been souped up. Maybe souped up with 20 or 30 cups of coffee. No sugar, no cream. Just plain XD
GalaxyJazzGirl
Hahhah yeah
This ride was so much fun!
11:24 So that's what he looks like!
I so wanna go on this ride, this ride looks incredibly FUN
My biggest fear about Test Track is that one day, like Disney did with the Norway Pavilion, and every ride in Disney's California Adventure in Anaheim, and Universe of Energy at EPCOT, and The Living Seas at EPCOT, and the Mexican Boat Ride at EPCOT, they will change Test Track into some BS Mickey's Car Ride of Fun. I just see it happening. I know there's already a Cars Land and stuff like that in DCA, but I fear the worst. Disney is slowly selling out to their own movies and it makes me sad to see Epcot possibly be consumed by this assenine behavior.
thats bound to happen sometime. checvrolet will drop their sponsor.
wait til they get rid of test track.
Well your vision is coming true Paradise Pier at DCA is getting a whole new revamp California Screaming is becoming The Incredicoaster and new name for Paradise Pier is Pixar Pier! Already confirmed courtesy of Fresh Baked Disney!
I'm the biggest ride wimp ever. I still remember how terrified I was before going on this, I was almost in tears and shaking, holding onto my friend! But I had a blast, and I'd do it again over and over if I could go back!
Tron Track?
+Im a horse lover we know it looks like tron
The Tron ride is at the Shanghai Location, but I see what you did there.
I wouldnt mind having a tron ride using this system (cars instead of rails/track) but using test track to make it a look-a-like of tron is just BS. Test track use to be an amazing ride and now it looks like garbage (but I still enjoy the actually ride portion though because its still the same).
Good reference.
They should switch test track back and let Disney build the torn ride in the magic kingdom but everyone knows Disney won’t change it back
I find it interesting the way they kept the edutainment aspect of the ride with the queue and post-show. They definitely outdid themselves.
This 2.0 version is way better! The old one was really old and crappy.
TrainsWow™ your kidding me right?
no...
TrainsWow™ You look familier.....
Yes. I am subscribed to you! ;)
TrainsWow™ you missed a lot of my new model railroading videos. Can you please check them out?
To be fair, I would say that I like both V1.0 and V2.0 of this ride. I am a fair person!
V1.0 - This was educative because it taught kid's some of the basics to building and testing a vehicle. It also had a good ride because of the fun rough-surfaces, hot and cold chambers, etc.
V2.0 - This is educative and fun for children because it allows them to design a car, and test it out. This has a good ride because of the vivid colours and stuff.
V1.0-5/5, V2.0-5/5. The final score is 50/50, simple!
why did they change it -.- seems kinda dumb now. sucks because this used to be one of my favourite rides
I know right! When I saw the inside the the new one, i cringed. It is so sad. :(
This is my Favorite ride!!!!
cant wait till January!!!!
I can see why they re-did it. Should they have? Maybe not. This ride would be so much better if it was more interactive like the original was. Bring back the human element to it. Add more practical effects and this would be great. But it fails to deliver.
I can't wait to go on this ride . I love this!
I stood in a place where a video that has 375k views was filmed!!! I'm famous!!!
castletriglav OK WTH IS WROMG WITH YOU?!
castletriglav lmao
Awesome, I love how you made your car look very "tron-ish" really cool, can't wait
Test Track 1.0 is sooo much better than 2.0!!! I don't even know what I'm watching? Why fix something that isn't broken? This is bullshit!!!
I like the ride portion of this better but I liked the old que better
It used to be gm, now it's Chevy. Chevy did what they wanted.
Chevy is GM
the first one is like a real test track. the new one is just like a simulation.
I think 2.0 is pretty cool though.
every time when I watch videos like this they always give me the chills because when I go to Disney world I go on rides like this I get scared but actually it's fun in person well... nevermind
They should had left the origenal Test Track alone.
No way it was good to see Epcot getting back to the basics.
It looks amazing and i think it really fits the theme of future world well
Why did they change it? I seriously hate when they update things for no reason. The original was fantastic.
Amalia Viola Futuristic or not, the original was better.
I don't care how old this comment is. The original was outdated and had no point in Epcots theme, And car making had changed from the time the original was made.
It still looks incredibly cool and hey designing the car is fun then "testing" it out. But it's just so dark. But I guess it really does fit Epcots theme more, at least now.
That line is a lie
He went on before the ride officially opened so that is why the line is so short
I LOVE THIS RIDE MY FAVOURITE
Hate to say it; but this looks horrible. What were they thinking. The original was better than this.
No
and you are a bullshit because the new version is the BEST!
Richard Joash Tan Agree. It looks very imaginative and fun. Not all of us are speed geeks.
This ride doesn't even deserve to have the word "Test" in it. You might as well call it Tron Track now.
I haven't been on this when it got the "Tron" treatment, but I did go on this when it was the REAL "Test Track."
SkyrimFanatic 007
and you are a bullshit because the new version is the BEST!
I've never been to WDW but this looks amazing and i think the interactive queue is really cool, it gives the futuristic touch.
it looks so beautiful! A perfect fit for future world! Good job Epcot :D
I really liked the new theming. When I first heard about it I didn't get it but now I believe that it came together great!
This ride looks badass!
seems like a very fun ride to be at!!! especially if u like futuristic stuff
I ride this ride every year for one of my classes For a field trip and I can say it is a awesome ride last year I took my best friend on it for the first time she was scared but I told her that it was fine and we both did it and she had a great time
I like it, and cannot wait to experience it myself.. The scene on the left side of the car, after the lightning strike, looks alot like the Progress City Model that is in the tunnel of the TTA People Mover in Tomorrowland.. So in my opinion not only does this ride pay omage to the original ride that was housed in this building with the logo scattered around, but it also bows it's head to Walt's plans for EPCOT..
This looks really cool. The last time I rode on Test Track was 2008. A lot has changed.
Why is it whenever I watch one of these ride videos, I get goosebumps and a feeling in my stomach that is a mix between excitement and fear...
