Test Track 3.0 Review: Good, Bad & Ugly
The article reviews the reimagined Test Track 3.0 ride at EPCOT in Walt Disney World. The new version has removed the massive canopy outside and features a redesigned queue with six exhibits showcasing concept cars and the design process. The ride vehicles have been updated with new seats, seatbelts, and a fresh coat of paint. The ride experience includes new show scenes, such as a drive through a city, a house of the future, and a forest, with a focus on technological advances and mobility. The article praises the new musical score and the "edutainment" approach, but notes that the ride lacks personality and whimsy, which was present in the original Test Track. The author suggests that the ride could benefit from more memorable dialogue, characters, and visual gags to make it more engaging and nostalgic. Overall, the review concludes that Test Track 3.0 is an iterative improvement over its predecessor, but it could use more emotional resonance to make it a truly beloved ride.
