In Cars 3, Bobby competes in the 2016 Piston Cup season along the likes of Lightning McQueen, Cal Weathers, and Brick Yardley. Early in the 2016 season of the Piston Cup, after McQueen's victory in Dinoco Light 350 at the Motor Speedway of the South, Swift and his crew pranked him in extinguishing foam and confetti while he was having an interview with Racing Sports Network reporter, Shannon Spokes. In the mid-season when Jackson Storm won at the Copper Canyon Speedway, he, Lightning and Cal were surprised by his speed. When Lightning asks who he was, Bobby responded saying that was Jackson Storm who is one of the rookies. Interest and popularity in the Next-Generation race cars rose since they had better achievements on the track racing. For the rest of the season, more and more stock cars were replaced with high-tech rookies and Bobby was unable to keep up. Before the Los Angeles 500, the final race of the 2016 Piston Cup Series, Bobby was theoretically fired by Octane Gain and was replaced by Daniel Swervez. Bobby does not appear again in the film.

Official profiles
- Bobby Swift is known for squeezing past his opponents at the last moment to win a race. He's always wheel to wheel with Lightning McQueen and Brick Yardley.

Trivia
- Bobby Swift's competition number, 19, might be a reference to the 1995 Pixar animated film Toy Story as, together with Lightning McQueen's number, 95, to whom he stayed close during the races, it formed number 1995, the year of movie's release.
- While he had purple eyes in Cars 3, his artwork in the Meet the Cars book presented him with brown eyes and his 1:55 scale diecast toy model with green.
- Competition number 19 was also used by: Kolya Ivanov and Daniel Swervez.
- Other racing cars that where sponsored by Octane Gain were: Billy Oilchanger, Henderson and Daniel Swervez.
- While Bobby Swift and Daniel Swervez used number 19 in Cars 3, the Octane Gain racer in Cars, Billy Oilchanger, used the number 58.
