Cars 2
Rod “Torque” Redline is considered by many as the greatest American spy in the world. Recruited after the Cold War for both his brains and brawn, Torque is a tough-as-nails Detroit muscle car with a mastery of disguises. In his latest deep-cover operation, he obtained vital information about the plot to sabotage the World Grand Prix. So Rod plans a rendezvous with his British counterparts to share his discoveries at the World Grand Prix welcome reception in Tokyo, Japan. But with the bad guys hot on his tailpipe, Rod is forced to ditch the intel early and with the first party guest he sees — a rusty American tow truck named Mater.

Later in the film, Rod Torque is captured by Grem and Acer who have brought him to Professor Z in their secret lair, where they have him tied down. He is then pumped to the gas "Allinol", where Professor Z demonstrates on the agent himself, what happens when cars fueled with Allinol explode when exposed to a high level of radiation; as a result, Rod "Torque" Redline explodes.
