Technology, style, and speed: 3D designs showcase famous cartoon cars as high-tech supercars
- Taking inspiration from popular gaming and cartoon cars, Compare the Market has imagined four famous vehicles as real-life supercars
- 3D renders include Homer’s sedan from The Simpsons, Brian’s Prius from Family Guy, The Onion Carriage from Shrek, and Fred’s Flintmobile from The Flintstones
Supercars are often regarded as some of the most powerful and luxurious vehicles in the world, bringing speed, style, and exceptional performance into a one-of-a-kind machine.
Working with an expert designer, compare the market.com.au have taken some of the most iconic gaming and cartoon motors, such as Homer’s sedan and The Onion Carriage from Shrek, and have created 3D renders of each, as though they are real-life supercars.
Read on to discover more about how each car has been carefully crafted, and to see the 3D designs come to life…
Homer’s car, The Simpsons
Taking inspiration from the classic round look of the sedan’s headlights, as well as the squared roof, curved style of the hood, and the trunk lid, Homer’s supercar adaption has introduced a slight angle to the top, and a rounded middle with an airflow gap.
The rear side of the car has been transformed, so it resembles a modernised version of the classic shape of older supercars; transferring the metal rear covers around the taillights to the spoiler, to make the back of the car more aerodynamic.
Fred’s Flintmobile, The Flintstones
With the original being constructed from very primitive parts, the Flintmobile supercar required additional modification, however, there are a number of elements from the cartoon version that make it recognizable.
The side of Fred’s vehicle was made of wooden branches, inspiring the red color of the imagined supercar. Rims were created with a filled-solid look, since the original had solid cylindrical stones for wheels. The length of the car has been kept to a minimum, seeing as the Flintmobile didn’t have a hood or a trunk.
The Onion Carriage, Shrek
Although it is not a typical mode of transport, The Onion Carriage from Shrek provided a lot of potential to be turned into a supercar, with specific customizations. The wheels are made of plant vines, and therefore the supercar wheels have been created using a specific pattern to resemble the original.
Inspiration was taken from the cream colour for the main body of the car, whilst using bright salad green shades on the extras and interiors of the car. With this, the side windows were slightly pinched at the corners, to give Shrek’s supercar an arabesque look, similar to the original carriage.
Brian’s Prius, Family Guy
To re-imagine Brian’s much-loved Prius as a luxurious supercar, the designs were carefully crafted using straight cutting sculpting technology to shape the car, with added curvature to mimic the original model. The double headlights were used as inspiration, as well as the grid on the lower bumper.
To give it a nostalgic feeling and to make it recognizable, the colours of both the exterior and interiors were kept similar to the original vehicle.
Commenting on the 3D renders, Stephen Zeller, General Manager of General Insurance at Compare the Market, said: “If you are lucky enough to purchase a real-life supercar in your lifetime and not one of our cartoon-inspired versions, it’s important to remember that cars of such a high value, are also likely to come with an increased insurance premium.”

Betfred Launches Checkd Dev’s Automated Betting System to Strengthen Football Betting Offering
Checkd Dev, part of the award-winning Checkd Group and a leading iGaming technology provider, has signed a multi-year agreement to supply its Automated Betting System (ABS) to UK bookmaker Betfred, introducing new levels of efficiency and engagement to pre-match football accumulator betting.
Through the partnership, Betfred has launched a suite of pre-configured, one-click accumulator bets, powered by Checkd Dev’s ABS technology and seamlessly integrated with Betfred’s proprietary pricing.
The solution enhances the customer betting journey while equipping Betfred’s trading team with a robust backend platform to streamline bet creation, management, and settlement. Customers benefit from football bets that are dynamically assigned probabilities based on historic form, providing greater insight and confidence in their selections.
The launch of ABS reinforces Betfred’s reputation as an industry innovator, offering customers smarter, faster, and more engaging betting experiences.
Checkd Dev has refined its ABS user interface through deployments with multiple tier-one operators. Betfred has further strengthened the proposition by integrating its competitive Acca Flex bonus offer, available from launch. Customers can access additional bonuses if their bet wins, while also benefiting from a money-back guarantee if a single leg loses.
Since its introduction two years ago, Checkd Dev’s ABS has evolved from a statistics-driven tool to increase operator conversion rates into a comprehensive system designed to meet the growing demand for automated, pre-configured betting products, powered by the company’s proprietary BRUNO platform.
This agreement extends Checkd Dev’s recent growth trajectory, following high-profile partnerships with William Hill on a fully automated, stats-powered Bet Builder, and a three-year deal with OpenBet to launch a new Trending BetBuilder to market.
Andrew Grimshaw, Commercial Director at Checkd Dev, commented: “We are delighted to be working with fellow Mancunians Betfred on our Trending Bets product. More and more major bookmakers are recognising the tangible value of our automated betting solutions, and it is especially gratifying to collaborate with a local partner on this launch.”
Mark Hartley, Head of Product at Betfred, added: “Since moving onto our propriety platform, we’ve been able to bring new ideas to market much faster. This partnership with Checkd Dev is a great example, helping us solve a simple problem for football fans: researching and building an accumulator can sometimes feel like hard work!
“With one-click, data-driven selections we’ve made the process quicker and easier, while still giving customers the choice and depth they want. Accas are already one of our most compelling propositions, thanks to our popular promotion Acca Flex, and this launch makes them even more engaging. We’re also looking forward to exploring further opportunities to work with Checkd Dev in the future.”
