What is the name of the spy mastermind revealed in Pixar's Cars 2?

Miles Axlerod is the spy mastermind revealed in Pixar's Cars 2.

Axlerod presents himself as the organizer of the World Grand Prix and claims to have become an electric car after once being an oil baron. His public image supports the film's clean-energy theme, but the secret plot reveals that he is behind the attacks connected to the race.

The central scheme uses Allinol, a supposedly clean alternative fuel, together with electromagnetic weapons that make the fuel's users dangerously explode. Axlerod's plan is intended to discredit alternative fuel and increase dependence on petroleum.

Cars 2 includes several spy characters who can be confused with the villain. Finn McMissile is a British secret agent, Holley Shiftwell is an intelligence agent, and Professor Zündapp is an operative working for the conspiracy. Axlerod is the mastermind whose identity is exposed near the end of the film.
