It aired on Disney Channel in the US, and it was produced by British animation company Spider Eye Productions in the UK and it was listed in airing order.

==Characters==

===Main===
*Zooter (voiced by Janet James) is a British-accented pink pig/scooter. She's the jungle messenger. She likes to zoom around. She also says the title of every episode.
*Ellyvan (voiced by [[Billy West]]) is an American-accented blue elephant/van. He delivers everything. He's the biggest animal in the jungle. He's Zooter's best friend. His name is a compound word, albeit fictitious. He's able to suck improbable quantities of liquids up his trunk and spray them.
*Bungo (voiced by [[Keith Wickham]]) is a British-accented golden yellow bunny/cargo. He's the only Wheeler who's good at jumping, being able to leap many times his own height into the air. Bungo the rabbit has a long, raccoon tail with brown stripes on it. At the beginning of every episode, he carries a sign with the title of the episode. During the credits at the end of every episode in Season 1, he appears with signs and he asks the viewers for a little bit of help finding the right sign. When it's dark, he says "he isn't afraid of anything". Even though, he says "Oh, carrot sticks!".

===Recurring===
*Taxicrab (voiced by [[Jess Harnell]]) is a Jamaican-accented red crab who likes to dance. He makes the greatest smoothies in the jungle. His name derives from a taxi cab, and he is the only Wheeler who is able to drive sideways. Despite the fact that Toadhog is often impatient, Taxicrab tolerates him the most.
*Carla (voiced by [[Laraine Newman]]) is an orange koala/cargo who owns a grocery shop. She only appears in Season 1.
*Crocker (voiced by Keith Wickham) is a green crocodile and the fire chief with a lisp. He wears a yellow helmet with a red flashing light on top. He has a skill at gardening and he knows how to make compost. His name comes from the phrase which is slang in the United Kingdom, used to describe many second hand cars.
*Hippobus (voiced by Amanda Symonds) is a Jamaican-accented yellow hippopotamus/school bus. Her name derives from a "Hippie Bus" – usually a redecorated Volkswagen Bus. Even though, she can send the 5 colorful bug kids with wheels to school.
*The Beetlebugs are tiny Wheelers. Their shape derives from a Volkswagen Beetle, a car that was commonly nicknamed "bug". Their speech is mostly synchronized. There are 5 of them: the blue one, the red one, the green one, the yellow one, and the orange one.
*Lance (voiced by Dee Bradley Baker) is a purple rhinoceros and ambulance. His name is both a contraction of ambulance, and a reference to a weapon used by lancers who attacked with it at a full charge – much like a rhino attacking things by charging at them.
*Bobby (voiced by Jimmy Hibbert) is a blue toucan and the police chief. His name is derived from the British slang word for police officers. He's the only Wheeler who can fly, and he's also the only Wheeler to have a 3-wheeled chassis.
*Dozer (voiced by Keith Wickham) is a beige bull and construction worker. His name and shape derive from a bulldozer, being a pun. His talent is digging and repairing roads with his yellow dozer blade.
*Miss Jolly (voiced by Amanda Symonds) is a zebra and the schoolteacher. She's the oldest and wisest of the Wheelers. She's also the only Wheeler who might always wear glasses. She's white with black stripes.
*Toadhog (voiced by Ron Orbach) is a green toad who likes worms and Fifi flies. His sticky tongue can shoot out a long way to grab things. His name derives from the term "roadhog", which is used to describe an aggressive and reckless motorist. He might be responsible for Jungle Junction's power supply – his water wheel powers the generator for all the lights, and he has a supplementary generator that's used to power the Zipsmas lights. He loses his patience with almost everyone except Taxicrab.
