what are the vehicles called in tron

In the Tron franchise, the vehicles are called "Light Cycles". These are futuristic motorcycles that emit trails of light behind them as they move, creating a distinctive visual effect. The Light Cycles play a prominent role in the virtual world of the film. The first appearance of the Light Cycle was in the film Tron, and subsequent generations of Light Cycles appeared in later works of media. The Light Cycles were designed by artist Syd Mead and were initially rendered digitally. For Tron: Legacy, the Light Cycle was redesigned by Daniel Simon. Five prop Light Cycles were built in real life, with four of them being destroyed post-production. The final one was purchased by a collector but was not street-legal. The Light Cycles have become well-known in popular culture as symbols of futurism and posthumanism.
