In the philosophical sense, some Mattel Disney Pixar Cars "singles" are really 2-packs: pitties and other smaller-than-average characters tend to be packaged together, not to risk looking of poor value next to equally-priced cars four times their size. Mainline staples Luigi and Guido are the most obvious example. In these instances, we want to make sure that {{vehicle list}}s clarify them as separate entities (each with their own page), while also not double-dipping their "release" and risk causing even more confusion.

This template is a modified version of {{vehicle row}} and functions largely the same. However, it's a little unconventional in that it's not to be entered on any vehicle page but rather the respective series page.

Usage

Paired rows function largely the same as the standard row, the only surface-level difference being its need for two model_name inputs instead of one. Each parameter functions identically per usual, so for sake of redundancy they are not covered again here.

{{Paired row
|model_1_name=
|model_2_name=
|segment=
|country=
|toy=
|photo=
|card=
}}

Certain fields like year and series are automatically inherited from the {{die-cast infobox}} and aren't needed. Similarly to {{poster sort}}, please place this template directly below the {{vehicle list}} template in which they appear. Once published (see Help:Vehicle), the row will appear on the list – if not, try either purging the cache or reviewing the template code. An example in practice can be found here.

Lists are configured not to include each pair member's individual row, so nothing else needs to change on the individual models' pages. Paired rows exist as their own database entries but aren't included in the site-wide counter.
