* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: When Dappu appears to the Peagasus workers and immediately tells them they've been chosen to be the Carrangers, they... Run off like hell and try to hide from the strange alien that appeared without warning. Dappu tries to get them to fight the Bowzock when they get to Earth but the workers being a bunch of random civilians with no combat experience are just too cowardly to engage the bad guys. It takes Dappu pretending to be killed and telling them about his sad past for the workers to finally take up the powers for the sake of a personal motivation.

When the Reckless Driving Tribe Bowzock arrives on Earth to blow it up as they've done to many worlds; the Hazardian Dappu, the sole survivor of the latest planet they destroyed: Planet Hazard, must gather a team of heroes that can wield the legendary "Carmagic" (Kurumagic) to defeat the Bowzock, though the people he chooses prove more trouble than he expected.

* DisneyDeath: PlayedForLaughs. When the people Dappu chose as Carrangers just won't do their part as heroes, he decides that he won't just stand around and tries to fight off the Bowzock on his own, he duels Zelmoda, who kills him to the latter's own surprise and Dappu uses the last of his life to motivate the humans to finally fight, which they do, but the second they transform Dappu gets up and reveals he faked his death to motivate them.
* DownerBeginning: The episode opens with Planet Hazard's destruction and Dappu being forced to flee after losing his mother and the rest of his family and people to the Bowzock.
* ImDyingPleaseTakeMyMacGuffin: Before dying from her injuries, Dappu's mother gave him the pendant with which to find the Carmagic constellations and summon forth the Carrangers to oppose Bowzock.
* TheInfiltration: To learn what the Bowzock are going to go next, Dappu puts on a cloak and infiltrates their base, the Baribarian. He is able to blend in well despite his simple disguise up until he correctly pronounces Earth (Chikyuu) as the Bowzock call it "Earsh/Earf" (Ch''ii''kyu). He gets away once he reveals his identity and origin.
* MakerOfMonsters: When the Carrangers start getting troublesome, Gynamo uses his powers to transform a normal firefighter truck into a monstrous looking "Reckless Engine" that goes on a rampage.
* MentorOccupationalHazard: Subverted, invoked and parodied simultaneously. Dappu fights Zelmoda when it seems that the Pegasus Garage workers just won't fight the Bowzock and gets killed by the warrior using his last moments to motivate the Carrangers to fight to avenge him... Then he gets up after they transform and reveals he deliberately went with the whole routine and faked his death so he could motivate them to fight by using himself as an emotional motivator. The Carrangers aren't thrilled about Dappu toying with them like that.
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: After taking enough of a battering from the Carrangers; Gynamo, Zelmoda and Grotch flee back to Baribarian.

* MoodWhiplash: The cheery opening is immediately followed up by the Bowzock's destruction of Hazard.
