Grem

Grem is one of the two tertiary antagonists in Cars 2.

Cars 2
Grem is a dented, rusty orange AMC Gremlin. After years of being dismissed for his design, even rudely being called a "lemon," Grem has a big chip on his fender that has led him to the underworld of international espionage. As a henchman for his villainous boss, Professor Z, Grem and his partner-in-crime Acer are trying to sabotage the World Grand Prix and the famous race cars competing in it. When Grem and Acer mistake Mater for an American agent with important top-secret information, the ruthless lemons set out on a global chase to stop Mater from foiling their evil scheme.

He is at the oil rig in the beginning of the film. Later, in Tokyo he and Acer find the American spy named Rod "Torque" Redline and together they damage him pretty badly. He takes the spy back to Professor Z and he stands by watching as the spy explodes after putting Allinol in him and using their weapon to kill him. Later Grem and Acer chase Mater and Finn McMissile at the airport. They are also seen present at the lemon meeting. Grem and Acer are also the ones who use the weapon at all the races. During the last race they tease Mater for not being able to save Lightning McQueen as they fire the weapon at him, but fortunately it doesn't work. He got beaten up by a bunch of British cars at "Ye Left Turn Inn" after he and Acer crash into each other at the end.

Weaponry and Gadgets

 * Missile Launcher: In the airport escape Grem reveals a missile launcher on his right side. He launches it at Finn McMissile but Finn launchers a missile at that one and they cancel each other out, he uses it once in the film.
 * Deployable Machine Gun: In an attempt to get Lightning McQueen and Mater in London, he and Acer got out their weapons, but instead of a missile launcher like earlier in the film, it was a machine gun, on the opposite side of the missile launcher.
