Vehicles in Monsters, Inc.

Here are all of the vehicles seen in the film Monsters Inc. and its prequel Monsters University.

General
Most of the vehicles in Monstropolis are shaped differently to fit the monsters that drive them. They resemble real vehicles, but have designs that make them more monster-like in appearance, such as having grilles resembling fanged mouths, rear-view mirrors resembling horns, headlights resembling extra eyes, and spoilers resembling spikes and/or claws. It's hinted that most of these vehicles are powered by scream energy canisters.

Mike Wazowski's hatchback
Mike Wazowski owns a dark red hatchback with a grille resembling a scowling fanged mouth and six headlights. At the start of Monsters Inc. Mike wants Sulley to ride in it with him (despite Sulley obviously being too big), but Sulley prefers to walk to Monsters Inc. instead because of a severe energy crisis due to the growing number of children being more resistant to being frightened by monsters.

CDA vans and helicopters

These are the vans and helicopters driven and flown by the CDA. They are all rectangular in appearance, and are mostly black with gray undersides and sport horizontal yellow stripes as with the word "CDA" written in huge yellow letters.

Himalayas sled

This is a makeshift sled Sulley constructed out of various wooden crates containing skiing equipment inside the Yeti's cave in the HImalayas as an attempt to get back to Monsters Inc. and save Boo from Waternoose and Randall by borrowing a Sherpa child's closet door after he and Mike were banished there.

Six-Wheeled Drive

As its name suggests, this yellow, six-wheeled car (resembling a Honda Civic) is the title vehicle of Mike's New Car. When Mike Wazowski shows his new car to Sulley, they both try to test the vehicle out, but after Sulley couldn't find the Start button to start up the car and instead pushes the "Open hood" button by accident, the car's hood opens up, and Mike starts to have a hard time closing it back up again, including being trapped inside the car's engine, and Sulley pushing more buttons resulting in Mike getting into even more mishaps like being squirted by water that was supposed to clean the windshield. Finally, Mike tells Sulley to get out of the car and drives away alone, only for the car to be totaled offscreen causing all six of its wheels bouncing down the street (the last one simply rolls by and falls down) causing Mike to walk back to Sulley alone and sadly tell him that he missed his old car.

School Bus

This is the school bus used by Frighton Elementary at the start of Monsters University during Ms. Graves' class field trip to Monsters Inc. The bus resembles a real school bus in every way except that some features were changed, such as a fanged grille, a fin-like retractable Stop sign and spikes protruding from the roof.

Monstropolis Bus

This is a blue-and-gray bus Mike Wazowski took to Monsters University on his first day of class. It was also the same bus he and Sulley took to leave the university after being expelled at the end of the film, at which upon boarding, Dean Hardscrabble arrives and tells them to find a new life at Monsters Inc, much to their delight and use the bus to go to the factory where they will start working there. It resembles a Greyhound Bus except with some monster-related modifications such as extra headlights and spikes all over the roof and side panels.

Campus vehicles

These are various cars and trucks used the students at Monsters University. The vehicles are all colored to match the colors of the frats and sororities of the University (for example, ROR's car is maroon with gold stripes while PNK's is mostly all pink and white, an exception is mentioned below). The cars and trucks all have various designs, with some of the cars resembling Lemons like Gremlins, Pacers, and at least one Zundapp Janus (aka the villains of Cars 2) but with extra headlights and spikes on their roofs, while the trucks resembling six-wheeled pickup trucks or SUVs resembling Miles Axlerod (continuing the Lemon resemblance).

Pizza Planet Truck

Seen in every Pixar film except for The Incredibles, the Pizza Planet truck from the Toy Story trilogy makes an appearance outside the ROR fraternity dorm. Unlike a "human" Pizza Planet truck, the "monster" Pizza Planet truck has monster-like features such as six wheels, spike-like protrusions, and slightly different proportions.

Ms. Squibbles' minivan.

Since the members of OK do not have their own vehicle, they instead travel inside Sherri Squibbles' (Squishy's mother) minivan. Some instances of them using the van include sneaking into Monsters Inc. at night during the Scare Games without being caught (Art was once said to have been sent to jail for an unknown crime). The minivan resembles a light-blue minivan (resemling a late 80's-early 90's Dodge Caravan) with horizontal brown stripes, but with a fanged grill, six wheels, and spikes protruding from the roof.
