How long is Pixar's Cars 2, rounded to the nearest minute?

The story behind the answer

Pixar's Cars 2 has a runtime of 106 minutes.

The 2011 sequel is longer than the original Cars and shifts the franchise toward an international spy adventure. Its story follows Lightning McQueen through the World Grand Prix while Mater becomes involved in an investigation involving secret agents, Allinol and a plot against the racers.

A runtime of 106 minutes refers to the theatrical feature itself, not the trailers, advertisements or bonus material included on home-video releases. Different databases may display the length in hours and minutes, but the same duration is generally rounded to 1 hour and 46 minutes.

Cars 2 was directed by John Lasseter and co-directed by Brad Lewis. It visits Tokyo, Porto Corsa and London, giving the film a broader setting than the first movie's primary focus on Radiator Springs. Its international locations and espionage structure are why it is often described as a departure from the original's small-town road story.
