Here’s a plot summary: on the run in the year 1987, Bumblebee finds refuge in a junkyard in a small Californian beach town. Charlie (Steinfeld), on the cusp of turning 18 and trying to find her place in the world, discovers Bumblebee, battle-scarred and broken. When Charlie revives him, she quickly learns this is no ordinary, yellow VW bug.

It’s worth noting that Bumblebee was always a VW bug in the animated Transformers series. Michael Bay chose a Camaro to be Bumblebee instead for the Transformers movie simply because he “liked the other car better.”
