Lightning McQueen MBTI Personality Type
Personality
What personality type is Lightning McQueen? Lightning McQueen is an ESTP personality type in MBTI, 3w4 - so/sx - 387 in Enneagram, SLUEN in Big 5, SEE in Socionics.
McQueen is basic for his type, but I love his cognitive complexities he has for his type. He has some ESTP overlooked flaws such as pessimism. Pessimism comes from inferior Ni. In Cars 3, McQueen was going to feel like he’s treated like garbage after his crash because Doc Hudson was treated like garbage after his own. His Se dominant function is very clear as he’s so focused on his experiences and not looking into the future as much. I also can relate to him as well because of these complexities. He had to go through a lot. I can relate to him even more because he’s the same type as me.
Biography
The central character of the franchise, a young, ambitious but arrogant, self-centered race car who wants to win the Piston Cup. His desire to be the first to California leads him getting lost and stranded in Radiator Springs. However, his time with the eccentric townsfolk open his eyes to his own demeanor and learns to slow down in life, turning him into a better person. In Cars 2, he participates in the World Grand Prix. In Cars 3, he is outmatched by a new, high-tech generation of racers led by rookie Jackson Storm, causing him to suffer a near-fatal crash which puts his career in jeopardy, and struggles to get back on top with the help of fellow racing technician Cruz Ramirez, who has a dream of becoming a racer just like him. Unlike most of the other characters in the franchise, McQueen is not based on any one real world design, instead incorporating design features from many different sports and racing cars.
