TURBO (voiced by Ryan Reynolds) is a garden snail who yearns to put a pedal to the metal like his hero – French-Canadian Indianapolis 500 champion, Guy Gagne (Bill Hader).

A freak accident allows Turbo to perform bursts of death-defying speed and Taco truck driver Tito (Michael Pena) exploits a loophole in the rules of the Indianapolis 500 to enter Turbo.

Fellow snails Whiplash (Samuel L Jackson), Smoove Move (Snoop Dogg), Burn (Maya Rudolph), Skidmark (Ben Schwartz) and White Shadow (Michael Patrick Bell) help Turbo risk everything to out-manoeuvre his arrogant idol. The tried and tested formula propels David Soren’s film into the winner’s circle (albeit without any surprising detours).
