In Cars 3, Bubba joined the Transberry Juice team for the Piston Cup Racing Series, serving as a replacement for the previous racer, Markus Krankzler. He debuted in the mid-season at the Rustbelt Raceway. He finished fifth Mood Springs Sputter Stop 350 at the Georgia Super Speedway and fifteenth at the Bumper Save Gears and Glory 450 at the Heartland Motor Speedway. He started from the nineteenth position during the Los Angeles 500 at the Los Angeles International Speedway. He finishes in seventeenth place.
Before the Florida 500 race, Bubba was interviewed on where he thinks Lightning McQueen could have been, as he was preparing for the race. He said that it would probably be the best if Lightning did not appear due to the end of last season, during which he had experienced a serious accident. He started the race from the 27th position. During the race, Cam Spinner ended up causing a crash between a majority of the racers, with Bubba driving to the outfield and nearly hitting Steve LaPage. He had finished the race 20th. After crossing the finish line, he, Danny, Chase and Ryan congratulated Cruz Ramirez on winning the race. He had made a joke that her blinker was on rather than directly congratulating her. A similar joke that McQueen pulled on Cal Weathers during a race in the 2016 season.

- Bubba's Die-cast stock image has 63 on his roof, but has his normal 6 on his side.
- Bubba has been confirmed to have NASCAR crossover die-cast, being based off an actual NASCAR racer, but for some reason, the diecast is being released as "New For 2022".
