History:
As early as May 2022, rumors began circulating that a new roller coaster themed to the Fast & Furious film franchise was under development at Universal Studios Hollywood. Stage show attractions Animal Actors on Location and Special Effects Stage were both permanently closed the following year to make way for the new rumored ride. On June 12, 2025, Universal Studios Hollywood released official concept art and a video promo for the new ride, showcasing riders spinning and racing up and down the track in different model cars from the film franchise. The new coaster was later unveiled as "Fast & Furious: Hollywood Drift" in May 2024, billed as the park's "first ever high-speed outdoor roller coaster" and scheduled to open in 2026. Its track was completed by April 2025.
The ride is 4100ft long in length and will travels up to speeds of 72mph, making it the fastest coaster at the park. Ahead of Universal Hollywood's 2025 Mega Movie Summer event, a model of one of the ride's train cars was unveiled. The car is modeled after Dominic Toretto's 1970 Dodge Charger R/T with lap bar seats, on-board speakers, and would remain on display until the end of the event on August 10, 2025.
On March 4, 2026, Universal Studios Hollywood released a video revealing the final lineup of cars alongside the Dodge Charger being Han Lue's 1997 Mazda RX-7 and both Brian O'Conner's 2002 Nissan Skyline GT-R R34 / 1994 Toyota Supra MK IV. On the same day, many amusement park insiders also got an exclusive look inside the ride's station where a large-scale mural by Hollywood graffiti artist Tristan Eaton is displayed on the left side of the station. The mural is highly visible throughout the park's upper lot, including from The Wizarding World of Harry Potter.
A television commercial promoting the ride, narrated by Vin Diesel, was released on February 5, 2026. The 30-second advertisement, which aired during Super Bowl LX, the 2026 Winter Olympics, and the 2026 NBA All-Star Game, revealed that the ride was scheduled to open in the summer of 2026. The ride soft opened on 27 July 2026, and was still planning to open in Summer 2026. By August 2026, the opening of the attraction would be delayed to later that year.
