Plot
The show focuses on Blaze, a red monster truck, and his young but smart driver, AJ. They live in a world that involves many living monster trucks, including their truck friends Starla, Stripes, Zeg, and Darington. Another friend of theirs is a girl named Gabby, who is a mechanic who can fix anything. Each episode also features Crusher, a sneaky blue truck who cheats in races. Crusher is almost always accompanied by a green car named Pickle.
Animals in this monster machine world also have blended windows and wheels; however AJ and Gabby are not vehicles at all. In some episodes, Blaze, AJ and their friends are in a race against Crusher. During the race, Crusher cheats, usually with the help of his gray robots. However, Blaze and AJ manage to get through his traps, and they always beat him at the last second with the help of his blazing speed.
Some episodes do not involve races, but still have Blaze competing against Crusher, sometimes by racing against him to get an item. Sometimes it will involve helping a truck friend such as Starla, Zeg, Darington, Stripes, or even Crusher.

Main characters
- Blaze (voiced by Nolan North) is an orange-red monster truck who is good hearted, loyal and brave. As one of the main protagonists, he is Axle City's number one racer. At the start of Season 2, Blaze becomes the newest member of the Axle City Fire Department.
- AJ (voiced by Dusan Brown (Season 1-Early Season 2) and later by Caleel Harris) is Blaze's best friend and driver, an eight-year-old science and technology expert.
AJ and Gabby are the only two actual people in this weirdly anthropomorphised world for some reason, although this is never explained.
- Gabby (voiced by Angelina Wahler) is a knowledgeable mechanic who fixes up the trucks when they are damaged.
- Stripes (voiced by Sunil Malhotra) is a striped truck with the abilities of a tiger such as a high sense of smell and retractable claws in his tires.
- Starla (voiced by Kate Higgins) is a purple pickup truck, a roping expert and speaks with a thick southern accent. She runs a farm outside the city.
- Darington (voiced by Alexander Polinsky) is a clumsy yet fearless blue monster truck who loves stunts.

- Crusher (voiced by Kevin Michael Richardson) is Blaze and AJ's rival and the main antagonist of the series. He is childish, whiny, egotistical, and he cheats in most episodes just to get his way, he also poses no significance threat to Blaze and Blaze himself is unaware of Crushers cheating antics.
- Pickle (voiced by Nat Faxon) is a green monster truck who is Crusher's sidekick despite Crusher's indifference towards him. He tends to look on the brighter side of things and is quite goofy and has an extremely high pitch voice.
