Where is Cars (2006 American animated film directed by John Lasseter) set?
2006 American animated film directed by John Lasseter
Cars (2006): 1 real place Wikidata records as its setting in the United States. Where the film takes place, not where it was made: an animated film is drawn and filmed nowhere, so this is the only kind of location it has.
Part of the Cars film series
Where it is set
Places whose own article says it is set there
1 place whose own Wikipedia article names this film, where Wikidata records nothing and this film’s own article does not say so either. The weakest evidence on this atlas: no pin on the map, and nothing in the downloads. Each sentence is quoted whole and linked to the article it came from, so it can be judged rather than taken on trust.

Quay County United States
“Tucumcari was the filming location for the western series Rawhide, and it was one of the major inspirations for the fictional town of Radiator Springs in the film Cars, and many of its events today are either Route 66 oriented or inspired by its earlier days as a Wild west railroad town.” Wikipedia
