Carrera is anAutobot from theAnimatedcontinuity family.

And the girl in the corner said "Boy, I wanna warn ya, it'll turn into a ballroom blitz."

If there's one thingCarrera loves, it'ssports. His everyday speech is dotted with sporting jargon, and it's his dream to one day be an announcer for some ofCybertron's greatest sporting events, like his favorite, theIacon 5000. Unfortunately, nobody else believes in him because of his speech impediment (he'll describe a 'bot as being "fast an his feet", or talk about the "smallest abject", for instance), but they don't want to say anything, because he's a genuinely nice guy—and a fantastic drinking buddy! Carrera can guzzleenergon all day long, and never put on an ounce of weight.
