- Piston is an Autobot from the IDW portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Piston is a member of Blurr's pit team, though his hard work is often overlooked by his supercilious boss who prefers to hang out with other racers. Despite the fact that Blurr can't even remember his name, Piston remains cheerful and upbeat.

He tried to persuade Blurr to come with him, but the racer was more interested in partying.
Piston was part of an Autobot squad that included Ironhide, Kup and Optimus, sent to intercept Starscream's Decepticons intent on assassinating Zeta Prime. Sadly, Piston was killed in the subsequent battle. Spotlight: Blurr
