Batwheels powers up for a super-charged third season premiering on Monday, 4 May on Cartoonito
Gear up, Gotham! The wheels are back in motion as BATWHEELS launches its third season on Cartoonito, rolling onto screens Monday, 4 May on DStv channel 302.
While helping Batman, Robin and Batgirl defend Gotham, Bam, Redbird, Bibi, Batwing and Buff are thrust into hilarious hijinks and jaw-dropping action as they learn important lessons about teamwork, friendship, and so much more.
Batwheels, a lively team of thinking, talking, crime-fighting vehicles, always put their best wheels forward as they take on Gotham’s most notorious troublemakers.
Season 3 dials up the action with high-stakes missions, unexpected team-ups, exciting upgrades and even space-level challenges. These new adventures mark some of the Batwheels’ most dynamic and ambitious missions yet. At its core, the series continues to champion friendship, teamwork, self‑confidence and problem‑solving, told through the eyes (and headlights!) of kid‑like vehicles still learning the rules of the road.
Led by Bam, the Batmobile with a strong sense of justice, the crew includes Bibi, Redbird, Batwing and Buff, guided by the Batcomputer and kept in top shape by the ever-chaotic MOE as they discover what it truly means to be heroes.
The Batwheels crew is joined once again by their mischievous rival squad, the Legion of Zoom: Badcomputer, Prank, Ducky, Jestah, Quizz, Snowy and Kitty, who bring fast-paced, comedic chaos to every chase.
Alongside these villainous vehicles, the series also features iconic characters from the Batman universe, including Batman (voiced by Ethan Hawke), Robin, Batgirl, Joker, Harley Quinn, Mr. Freeze, Penguin, Toyman, Poison Ivy and Catwoman, ensuring Gotham’s streets are always full of familiar faces, big personalities and even bigger adventures.
Produced by Warner Bros. Animation, Batwheels is steered by a powerhouse creative team, including Creator, Developer & Executive Producer Michael G. Stern, and Executive Producer Simon J. Smith. Season 3 rolls out 28 episodes in total – 26 high-energy 11’ missions and two extended two-part specials, each running at 22’ each.
Since its debut in 2024, Batwheels has raced ahead as the DC universe’s first preschool expansion. It reached 100 million individuals on linear channels globally and became the #1 show on the Cartoonito Global YouTube channel, generating 523M+ views across WBD Kids YouTube channels. Across its first two seasons, the series established the Batwheels as breakout preschool heroes, inspiring young viewers with action‑packed stories rooted in teamwork, bravery and kindness.
