The DS version of [[Cars 2: The Video Game|''Cars 2: The Video Game'']] follows an early version of the movie in its story mode. 

== Differences from the movie ==
The differences are:
*[[Miguel Camino]], [[Jeff Gorvette]], [[Rip Clutchgoneski]] and [[Lewis Hamilton]] are completely absent from the game, even though the four of them are [[World Grand Prix]] racers.
*There were no races in the [[World Grand Prix]] at [[France]] or [[Germany]] in the movie.
*The [[London Circuit|London race]] wasn't interrupted or suspended at all in the game.
*[[Finn McMissile|Finn]] does not mistake [[Mater]] for an American agent, instead, he simply asks if Mater would be willing to help him disable [[Professor Zündapp|Professor Z]]'s satellite tower.
*[[Lightning McQueen]] does not race against [[Francesco Bernoulli]] or any other racer in their respective country before the actual [[World Grand Prix]] race in the movie.

==Trivia==
*[[Grem]] and [[Acer]] are the only playable characters in the game that don't have additional themes.
*[[Mater]] can be seen running away from [[Acer]] and [[Grem]] on the last turn of the France 1 track.
*[[Nigel Gearsley]] and [[Finn McMissile]] have the same theme name, that being "Union Jack".
*The first 95 people that bought this game in Japan received a free Mack toy, that included Lightning McQueen and Luigi, as a prize. 
*France and Germany are the only countries to not feature a special WGP track. Instead, the tracks used for those two races are modified versions of France 1 and Germany 1.
