Anatomy
Velocitronians share a similar biology to other Cybertronians, though they generally transform into high-powered racing vehicles.

Culture and society
When Velocitron was colonized by trailblazing Cybertronians eons ago, the flat desert planet and its wide-open spaces soon gave rise to a monomaniacal culture focused entirely on racing. This is no planet for ungainly or slow-moving Cybertronians. If one is not a racer, working for a racer, or watching a race, then they are clearly not a Velocitronian.

Although the citizens of Velocitron are both blisteringly fast and constantly searching for ways to go faster, their elitist, high-consumption racing culture has also eaten away at their basic infrastructure and social development. Forever fixated on speed, other Cybertronians might classify the average Velocitronian as impatient, high-strung, or just plain annoying.

Government
The Velocitronians' racing obsession permeates every facet of life, as they can race to elect leaders and implement governmental policies in massively publicized events. A famous example of this practice is the Speedia 500.

Religion
Velocitronians are associated with Amalgamous Prime.
