Description[]
Power Pistons depicts a futuristic land speed record race car driven by a 6.0 liter V12. It was designed specifically to perform well on Hot Wheels track sets.
The tooling for the car was updated in 2015; the canopy was updated, losing its side mirrors and can no longer be opened. The design of the exhaust was also updated, going from vertical twin pipes to side-mounted triple pipes and being made a part of the interior piece as opposed to being a separate piece.
Power Pistons featured as car #21 of the Highway 35 anniversary event, driven by Esmeralda Sanchez from the Road Beasts team.
