Tony's Crew
In General
- Badass Driver: Naturally.
- Pragmatic Hero: Even though they may be young, the crew doesn't hesitate to plow through cars or pull back punches just because they're the good guys.
- Family of Choice: Although they likely have their own biological families, the crew refers to themselves as a family, mostly by Tony.
- Good Old Fisticuffs: All of them are badass fist-to-fist fighters.
- Teen Superspy: Although they may not seem like it, they are all government employed spies, though Layla only officially becomes one in Season 2.
- True Companions: All of them are effectively this. Though they may bicker, annoy, and disagree with each other, it doesn't last long. It takes a bit for Layla to become this for the team.
- Two Girls to a Team: Echo and Layla.
Tony Toretto
Tony Toretto
Voiced by: Tyler Posey
Dom's younger cousin, who aspires to be a cool driver like him.
- Absurd Phobia: He is afraid of cockroaches, which contrasts his impulsive and brave behavior, and also baffles Layla.
- Affectionate Nickname: Is often called 'T' by his friends.
- Alliterative Name: Tony Toretto
- Brainwashed and Crazy: He was a temporary test subject for the mind control serum. In the Season 2 finale, it appeared that he and Layla had put under mind control, though it turns out they were just pretending.
- Butt-Monkey: Out of all the characters, Tony get's the most humiliation and his friends don't always support him, especially Layla, who messes with him during season 3. Speaking of which, after a failed attempt to a back-filp in a music video, he becomes an internet joke.
- Catchphrase: "Aw, lugnuts!". It even becomes an in-universe meme when he says it in an embarrassing viral video.
- Chronically Crashed Car: Much too often, to Tony's dismay. To be fair, a lot of them are because he's too reckless.
- Disney Death: Due to his penchant to perform reckless feats, he often flirts with this trope. Gets carried out for real in Season 4 where he was presumed dead after he drives off a cliff into a lava pit, but turns out to be alive, having implied to have stolen the enemy ghost gear.
- Distressed Dude: Happens considerably often, which means his crew has to bail him out.
- Drives Like Crazy: While all of the crew do this during their racing stunts, Tony takes it to an extra level. He is a Toretto after all.
- Friendly Rivalry: Has this with Layla, even though their friendship was a bit rocky at first. They may be on the same side, but they will still compete to see whose the better driver if they can.
- The Hero: He is the main character of the show.
- Instant Web Hit: The video where he tries to make a backflip from his car and fails becomes a viral sensation, to the point where civilians in the Sahara desert recognize him. He is not happy about this newfound fame.
- Invisible Parents: Outside Dom, we don't see or hear from Tony's family or parents (who would be Dom's aunt and uncle).
- The Leader: Acts as one for the crew and refers to himself as such. His adventures in Rio show how his reckless attitude is a leadership weakness, however, and he relinquishes the leader role to Echo in Sahara. Tony and Echo decide to let everyone in the team propose ideas and vote on them, rather than have just one leader.
- Remember the New Guy?: There was never a mention Dom and Mia having any other family besides their late father, but it seems Tony had always been there.
- Ship Tease: Has a considerable amount with Layla.
- Tattooed Crook: His undercover persona in season two, Marcello. Justified, since the tattoo is a chemical formula he needs to display to infiltrate a criminal organization.
- "Well Done, Son" Guy: Cousin, but a lot of what he does is to live up to the Toretto name and especially make Dom proud. This is amplified in Sahara, where he tries to understand what it means to be a Toretto without being the leader of his crew.
Frostee Benson
Frostee Benson
Voiced by: Luke Youngblood
The team's youngest member, tech expert, and hacker.
- Black and Nerdy: He's a gadgeteer and also happens to be African American.
- Dance Battler: In season 2, he discovers and practices some Capoeira.
- Distressed Dude: Has been used as bargaining chip multiple times.
- Friendly Rivalry: With Jun after their drone competition in Sahara, despite her being a foe previously. He also develops one with Ziri when the latter wishes to enter the competition for next year.
- Funny Afro: Has an afro and he's talkative, funny guy.
- Genius Sweet Tooth: Enjoys froyo, energy drinks and other sweets the most.
- Living a Double Life: He's the only crew member who explicitly hides his spy activities from his family. In season 2, Ms. Nowhere informs his mothers, who were guessing he was one after the final showdown in Las Vegas. They are cool with it.
- Motor Mouth: He talks a lot. When he's taken hostage by Shashi, he states that he hasn't stopped talking for 12 hours straight.
Margaret "Echo" Pearl
Margaret "Echo" Pearl
Voiced by: Charlet Chung
The team's expert artist who also specializes in creating environmentally-friendly vehicles.
- Action Girl: An extremely badass one.
- Actor Allusion: Not the first time Charlet Chung has played a badass pilot... err... driver as a member of a team.

- Childhood Friends: She met Tony and Cisco when they were kids. She beat up some bullies who were ganging up on Tony and they have been close friends ever since.
- Do Not Call Me "Paul": When Ms. Nowhere reveals she knows her first name is Margaret, Echo tells her that this will be the first and last time she will ever call her that.
- In season two, she is extremely annoyed at people comparing her to Ms. Nowhere, especially when people nickname her "Little Nowhere".
- Genius Bruiser: Like Frostee, she's incredibly smart and pragmatic, though she has the brawn to match.
- Kick Chick: She shows off her moves, especially in episode 3.
- The Lancer: She fulfills this function to Tony, as her careful and studious approach is a foil to his recklessness and intuition.
- The Leader: In Sahara, when Ms. Nowhere recognizes her pragmatic approach and trains her in spy school, making her a qualified operative that heads the next mission. She ends up relinquishing leadership and thinks the crew should not have a single leader.
- Little Miss Badass: For her size and figure, people are often quite surprised of how greatly skilled and brawny she really is.
- Invisible Parents: Her parents or guardians, if she does have any, seem perfectly fine with her being a spy.
- Pint-Sized Powerhouse: She's the second shortest of the crew, but she's probably even more of an asskicker than Tony is.
- Took a Level in Jerkass: As the field leader in season 3, where she takes more after Ms. Nowhere. She realizes his and steps down as leader, choosing to let everyone have an equal say in decisions.
- Wrench Wench: She built her own electric car that Tony describes as on par with any tuner.
- You Remind Me of X: While it doesn't manifest much until Season 2, it's clear that she's following in Ms. Nowhere's footsteps as a badass super agent. She certainly has the skills to match and shows much more promise in the profession than anyone else in the crew. After spy school training in season 3, she even dresses in a manner similar to Ms. Nowhere.
Cisco Renaldo
Cisco Renaldo
Voiced by: Jorge Diaz
A cowardly, but big-hearted mechanic.

- Bring Me My Brown Pants: Alludes to this when he mentions storing an extra pair of undies in Tony's car for the desert race.
- Cannot Keep a Secret: Season 4 reveals he's revealed every detail about his spy life to his uncle Tuco, which is why they believe Tuco betrayed them.
- The Captain: He takes this role in South Pacific any time the team uses the Hauler as a submarine, since he knows about submarines from several movies.
- Childhood Friends: Tony's oldest friend since childhood.
- Conspiracy Theorist: He sometimes talks about the secretive activities that shady organizations and corporations engage in, such as "Big Gum" hiding everlasting bubble gum from the public or the Illuminati and mind control. He gets it from his Uncle Tuco.
- Cowardly Lion: He is usually the most fearful person of the team, but in Sahara, he is the one who stays behind in a sandstorm to let the others reach Cleve Kelso's lair on time. This also leads to him recruiting many allies to storm Cleve's lair in the season finale.
- Drama Club: He joins one in season 3 and takes up acting in general to cope with leaving Donut behind at Brazil, as well as enhance his undercover skills.
- Gasshole: His "fear farts", which as the name implies, happens when he gets scared. It also makes everyone around him, usually Frostee, equally as terrified when he does let one out.
- Gentle Giant: Is described in promotional material as being sweet-hearted despite being the big guy.
- Shoulder Teammate: In season two, Donut the monkey constantly climbs on Cisco's shoulder.
- Thicker Than Water: He is loyal to Uncle Tuco, even when most of the crew believe he betrayed them. Tuco was working for Moray, but unknowingly, so Cisco is proven correct.
Layla Gray
Layla Gray
Voiced by: Camille Ramsey
A formidable underground racer that works for SH1FT3R though later becomes a secret agent under Ms. Nowhere.
- Brainwashed and Crazy: In season two, she is brainwashed by Rafaela into standing in for her and running her operations after she fakes her death.
- Character Development: She avoids making attachments and usually betrays people for her own benefit. Even when she joins Tony's crew, she rolls her eyes at the sentiment of family. By Mexico, she gets angry at Tony and splits, but later reveals she was just going to buy supplies. She's actually hurt that the rest of the gang doesn't believe she has changed.
- Dark and Troubled Past: She's been a criminal throughout most of her youth and made both allies and enemies. This past compromises the mission in Sahara, when gang leader Sandocal seeks revenge against her.
- The Dragon: To Shashi. In season two, she unwillingly becomes one to Rafaela.
- Embarrassing Nickname: Shashi calls her "Baby Barbecue" since she used to be the mascot for her family's BBQ sauce company when she was a baby. She snaps when he brings it up in season 5.
- Friendly Rivalry: She is this to Tony, though she was pretty hostile at first. Even though they work on the same side, it doesn't stop them from competing to see who's the better driver.
- The Mole: Inverted. She's a member of the team, but she's a real member of SH1FT3R.
- I Work Alone: Continues to insist this, even though it seems that she does like working alongside the crew. Tony continues to try recruit her into the team though.
- Love Confession: Sorta. In Season 4, Layla claims that since she saved Tony's life, his life belonged to her and that she planned to cash that debt in for the rest of her life.
- Not in This for Your Revolution: Ultimately she ditches Shashi once he starts becoming more extreme in his villainy because she just wants to race cars and steal stuff.
- Roaring Rampage of Revenge: When Tony was presumed to have been killed in the Season 4 finale, she becomes consumed with rage, claiming that she would make sure Moray would get it.
- Ship Tease: Has a lot of it with Tony. While she was in SH1FT3R, she had quite a bit with Shashi, though it didn't last once she changed sides.
- The Sixth Ranger: The press release lists her as a member of the team, and the trailer shows that team starts out with four people and she only joins later. She officially joins the team in season two onwards, but she spends a part of the season brainwashed by Rafaela and works for her crime organization in Rio de Janeiro.
- Sixth Ranger Traitor: Inverted. The rest of the team are spies, but she's a real member of SH1FT3R. She later ditches SH1FT3R and becomes a government spy instead.
- Vague Age: It's unclear how old she actually is, but she's likely a young adult considering that she's her own full-fledged criminal on her own. Frostee mentions there's a video of her wrecking other cars on her prom date meaning she is either highschool or college age bracket.
- Wild Card: Frostee calls her this when he frees her during the military heist. He assumed that her hate of authority would trump any enmity she had for Tony. He also points this out in season two, when Layla is forced to race against Rafaela's mysterious driver, who is a bigger wild card than her. Even in season 3, when she is fully committed to Tony's crew, she does things like steal bikes purely out of boredom.

- Jerkass: Ms. Nowhere is arrogant, callous, condescending, domineering, egotistical, a bit immature, prideful and proud of it. Even when being nice, it's in a not so nice way.

Gary

- Beware the Nice Ones: He's a pretty cool guy, who's built like a tank and strong enough to fight a whole squad of soldiers on his own.

- The Determinator: He never quits in his mission to bring in the spy racers.

- Absurd Phobia: Cockroaches, something he and Tony have in common. Layla is surprised by this.
- Anti-Villain: He wants to ruin and kill Cleve Kelso, who is the unrepentant villain that killed his parents. He is also sincere about helping the world's disadvantaged against their oppressors. However, he resorts to crimes to accomplish his goals and his plan to destroy all governments is potentially more dangerous than he'd think.
- Arc Villain: He is the main villain of the first season.
- Benevolent Boss: He treats everyone that works for him with respect, from his second-in-command Layla to lowly employees like Rusty. This makes it easy at first for Tony and his crew to earn his trust.
- He claims this in South Pacific, only for Layla to call him out for lying to her about his endgame goal and firing her.
- Big Bad: Of the video game Rise of SH1FT3R. The main plot involves him reinstating SH1FT3R to obtain the high-tech car known as Shadowmaker.
- The Bus Came Back: After being arrested at the end of season 1, he returns in the middle of season 5 when the crew needs information about Sudarikov.
- Even Evil Has Loved Ones:
- He appears to care for Layla, as shown when he tries to ensure she escapes from the train heist safely. That said... he loses some trust in her for trusting Tony and his crew when it turns out they're spies, and she is no longer welcome in his ranks when she betrays him.
- He fondly remembers camping at Mount Zebulon with his parents, who have since passed away. Zebulon being privately owned by a billionaire has made him greatly upset.
- Final Boss: Of Rise of SH1FT3R. Though the game lacks formal boss battles, he is the sole contestant in the final race.

- Visionary Villain: He wants to overthrow the world's governments, which he feels are rigged in favor of the wealthy and thus deny opportunity to everyone else.
- Well-Intentioned Extremist: Getting revenge for his parents murder is one thing but destroying the entire world's economy and governments because rich people are assholes is a whole other thing. Tony even offers to let Shashi go if he just destroys the Skeleton Key and walks away.

SH1FT3R's technician.
- Ascended Extra: In Homecoming she joins the crew to take down Dann's army.

- Heel–Face Turn: Both help out the crew against Dann in "Oil and Water" and are even offended when they think Tony isn't their friend.

- Suddenly Voiced: In Mexico, they have actual dialogue after being silent henchmen in the first season.

- Karma Houdini: He escapes from the Spy Racers after he fails to deactivate the Toretto Virus and it becomes a bigger threat than he is. Homecoming reveals he was arrested off-screen.

Rusty
Rusty
Voiced by: Fred Tatasciore
A talkative Southern man who works as Shashi's security guard. After being fired by Shashi for accidentally allowing Tony's crew to break in, he is hired by Sudarikov to be his right-hand man.
- Affably Evil: He has a very friendly demeanor, especially when he rambles, but he is also a skilled criminal.
- Ascended Extra: He is a minor obstacle and comic relief in "The Owl Job". Four seasons later, he returns as Sudarikov's right-hand man and recurring villain.
- Book Smart: Not a tech genius like many characters, but he does have extensive knowledge of science, history, and other subjects.
- Derailed Train of Thought: He tends to go into long tangents often, much to the chagrin of Sudarikov. Even the usually friendly Shashi fears his long conversations.
- Determinator: He becomes VERY obsessed with tracking down Tony in "Ex Machina". He even compares himself to Captain Ahab and Tony to Moby Dick. However, he does this to ensure he does not fail his assignment.

- Genius Bruiser: He is a big and strong man, but he is also very smart, which is shown when he goes on a tangent.

- Nothing Personal: He holds no grudge against Shashi for firing him, though he refers to him more formally because he no longer works for him.
- Punch-Clock Villain: He is usually friendly and talkative, and has no ill will towards the heroes. When he recalls his failure in "The Owl Job", he treats it as a mistake he made on the job, and when he obsessively hunts for Tony in the jungle, it's more of a mindset he adopts to do a great job with his mission.
- In Homecoming, he has his own business selling rattlesnakes and is friendly to Frostee and his moms.
- Southern-Fried Genius: While not on the level of Frostee, he is one of the more competent henchmen in the series. He also has a deep knowledge of many subjects and loves to talk about them.
- Took a Level in Badass: He went from being easily fooled by a fake earthquake in season 1 to being a competent tracker and hunter in South Pacific. Even Shashi is surprised by his improved competence and obsessive determination.
- The Unfettered: In "Ex Machina", he becomes obsessed with hunting down Tony by any means. Shashi is even startled by Rusty's more aggressive tactics and competence. He does mention he taps into this mindset to successfully complete his task, rather than out of genuine malice.

In the third season, he sends Rafaela and Matsuo to steal tech from General Dudley as payback for failing to protect his key car from Shashi. In the finale, he also betrays Rafaela because he got tired of her.
- Corporate Dragon: In addition to the dragon visual motifs, Cleve is a greedy businessman who hoards his wealth, believes might is right, and feels entitled to territory he doesn't actually own.
- The Corrupter: In a way to Matsuo. He saves his life by giving him cybernetic implants, but he also uses them to make him evil and essentially his henchman.
- Corrupt Corporate Executive: He was one until his crimes were exposed. By season 3, he embraces traditional villainy.
- Foil: To Tony, who believes family is important, while Cleve dismisses it. He brags about having many ex-wives and disowning all his children. He is also incapable of forming alliances without betraying them.
- Greater-Scope Villain: Of season 1, since his murder of Shashi's parents kickstarts his quest for revenge.
- Season 6 reveals that he sold Matsuo's cyborg technology to the agency, which led to Dann's creation.
- Hate Sink: Easily the most evil out of the main villains since he has no well-meaning goals and values no one else. Even when he teams up with Tony's crew, it's more to protect his home, and he is not wanted by the police because he bribes them.
- Hazy-Feel Turn: While still being an awful person and part of the reason why Dann exists, he helps the Spy Racers find a way to defeat her. He also keeps his head down and pays off authorities to avoid arrest.
- Karma Houdini: He loses his casino and a part of his money to Shashi, but he escapes after Tony stops Shashi from killing him.
- Zigzagged in Homecoming, since he survived his defeat in Sahara and bought Shashi's home in Los Angeles to settle down and bribed authorities to avoid prison. Dann's scheme is also his fault, since he sold Matsuo's tech to the agency. However, he does lose both his home and his new building to Dann.
- Mini-Mecha: He ends up using one as one of his desperate attempts to take down the heroes.
- Redemption Rejection: Played as a joke, but after his defeat, he is helped twice by others and finds new opportunities to abandon his ways and start fresh. However, he exploits both chances to make some money, and only helps the spies because his neck is on the line.
- Ungrateful Bastard: Tony saves him from a Skeleton Key-empowered Shashi. Cleve repays him by blowing up the building he and Shashi are in to eliminate any witnesses to his crimes.
- Villain: Exit, Stage Left: He escapes after Shashi's attempt to kill him fails.
- Would Hurt a Child: He was the only one of the conspirators who suggested killing a young Shashi, but he was overruled. He mocked his conspirators when this comes back to bite them, for not wanting to "get their hands dirty".
