The Legion of Zoom have taken over the Gotham Grand Prix and knocked out the Batwheels through cheating, leaving just BAM to compete in this second part of the Batwheels episode, "Batty Race." Watch the series now on Cartoon Network and HBO Max.
Batwheels is the 2022 preschool-age, animated TV series from Cartoonito on Cartoon Network and HBO Max based on the concepts from DC Comics franchise Batman.
The press release for the series provides this description:
They are a team of incredible crimefighters who have banded together to oppose evil, combat crime and clean up the streets of Gotham City. They are…okay, they’re NOT Batman and Robin. They’re the Batwheels - an awesome group of sentient super-powered crime-fighting vehicles defending Gotham City alongside Batman, Robin, Batgirl and a host of DC Super Heroes.
Having just been created by the Batcomputer, our heroes are essentially kids with little to no life experience. Led by Bam (The Batmobile), the Batwheels - Bibi (The Batgirl Cycle), Red (The Redbird), Jett (The Batwing) and Buff (The Bat Truck) – must navigate the growing pains of being a newly formed super team as well as the growing pains that come with just being a kid. They're added by the Batcomputer and Moe, the robot repairman. This relatable and aspirational series will follow the journey of this dynamic team as they thrill and entertain with their heroic adventures as well as demonstrate to kids the value of self-confidence, friendship and teamwork.
Voicing the characters are Jacob Bertrand (Cobra Kai) as Bam, Jordan Reed (Chuggington) as Redbird, Madigan Kacmar (Chuggington) as Bibi, Noah Bentley (Elliott from Earth) as Buff, Lilimar (Cleopatra in Space) a Batwing, Kimberly Brooks (Dc Super Hero Girls) as the Batcomputer, Mick Wingert (Marvel Studios' What If...?) as Moe, Ethan Hawke (Moon Knight) as Batman, AJ Hudson as Duke Thomas/Robin and Leah Lewis as Cassandra Cain/Batgirl.
Filling out the villain roles are Gina Rodriguez as Catwoman, Mick Wingert as The Joker, Chandni Parekh as Harley Quinn, SungWon Cho as The Riddler, Jess Harnell as The Penguin, Regi Davis as Mr. Freeze and James Arnold Taylor as Toyman.
The villain vehicles, known collectively as The Legion of Zoom, are voiced by Griffin Burns as The Joker's ride, Prank, Alexandra Novelle as Harley's ATV Jetstah, Josey Montana McCoy as The Riddler's helicopter Quizz, Ariyan Kassam as the Penguin's duck boat, Ducky, Xolo Maridueña as Mr. Freeze's snowcrawler, Snowy, Tom Kenny as Crash, the crash test dummy, and Cho pulling double-duty as Badcomputer, the mastermind behind the legion.
Batwheels is produced by Warner Bros. Animation. Sam Register (Looney Tunes Cartoons) serves as executive producer. Michael G. Stern (Doc McStuffins) serves as co-executive producer, Simon J. Smith (Baymax Dreams) is supervising producer and Steven Fink of Bang Zoom Ltd. is producer.
