What other movies and TV shows involve time-travel with a motor vehicle?

And will there be any upcoming time travel shows / films involving a Tesla? Maybe even the CyberTruck?

Doc did the same thing with a Klingon Bird of Prey once.

He was dead by then.

We don't know how long Doc was gone or how many times he time traveled or how far into the future between parts 1 and 2.

Not TV or movie, at least not yet, but someone posted on forums around the year 2000 or so claiming to be a time traveler from the year 2036 named John Titor. Titor's time machine was installed on a 1966 Chevrolet Corvette.

There’s a couple of movies about him that are a bit hard to find nowadays. Timetravel_0 (2009) is fairly decent found footage.

Ben 10 gets a time-travelling motorbike in S8 of Omniverse, if it counts.

I remember really enjoying that show until it got cancelled and they were forced to half-ass a rushed ending.

[–]JonPaula 3 points  

It got like a made for TV movie ending that was certainly better than nothing.

I recall there were three time travel shows then, including "Time after Time" and "Making History". I liked TAT the most. MA had potential since it was more of a comedy. Both were cancelled really early.

I used to love Making History. I think a duffle bag has to be the most unique idea for a time machine yet.

It’s not a movie or TV show, but the Mark Millar graphic novel “Chrononauts” had these time travel suits that allowed whatever vehicle the user was inside to also travel through time. Someone on YouTube made a fan trailer based on it a while ago.

The Tardis for Doctor Who is a motor vehicle technically. For movies I instantly think of Meet the Robinsons. Technically also in Midnight in Paris it's the veichles that travel in time (although if I recall correctly the second vehicle is pulled by horses)

How is it a motor vehicle? It's a wooden box.

Unless you mean it's a motor vehicle because it's a time machine, in which case every time machine is a motor vehicle.

Or you mean it's a space machine in addition to being a time machine, which I get, but I don't think that's what OP is asking.

a motor is a device that converts non-mechanical energy into mechanical energy

to me any veichle that can travel through space and it's not powered by direct forces of nature (animals, wind, etc) is a motor vehicle. hence the Tardis is a motor vehicle

Yeah but a motor vehicle is a land vehicle. You wouldn’t call a jet plane a motor vehicle, just like you wouldn’t call a spaceship a motor vehicle.

... why not? maybe it's a cultural thing, but to me those are all motor vehicles
