Car Sort Level 20 Walkthrough

medium Target: 22 moves 5 colors

Car Sort Level 20 is a compact rectangle where the lower yellow and blue columns should be finished before the center tray changes identity and becomes the final red bar.

Board Notes

Layout
A compact rectangle wraps around one long center tray, with two short towers above and two short towers below. The center tray starts as yellow over dark blockers, the lower columns begin as yellow-red and yellow-blue mixes, and the top towers later become green and purple.
Goal
Finish green and purple in the two top towers, a full red bar across the center tray, and yellow and blue in the two bottom columns.
Opening
Convert the yellow-heavy opening into the lower-left yellow home first, then park blue in the lower-right column while the center tray still carries mixed traffic.
Danger Zone
If you chase the upper towers before yellow and blue are already finished below, the center tray has to hold too many colors and the late red bar never gets a clean uninterrupted fill.
Mechanics
The center tray changes identity mid-solve. It starts as staging space, but only becomes the solved red bar after the two lower columns have stabilized.

Quick Tips for Car Sort Level 20 (spoiler-free)

  • Finish the bottom yellow and blue columns before you wake up the top row.
  • Save the long center tray for red once the bottom is clean.
  • Let green and purple close last above the red bar.

How to Solve Car Sort Level 20 — Full Solution

  1. Feed the exposed yellow cars into the lower-left column until that tower is no longer sharing the center tray.
  2. Settle the blue cars into the lower-right column so both bottom homes are already fixed.
  3. Move the red cars into the long center tray and let that tray become a solid red bar.
  4. Use the remaining upper traffic to fill the top-left tower with green and the top-right tower with purple.
  5. Finish by confirming the board as green and purple above the red center bar above yellow and blue.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Letting the top towers start too early and forcing the center tray to hold red, yellow, and blue together.
  • Treating the center tray as permanent overflow instead of converting it into the final red bar.
