Spectators lined the street from Exhibition Park, where the cruise began, but especially in the city centre, where large crowds gathered to get a glimpse of the cars.
Only registered Summernats vehicles are allowed in the cruise, which has been a tradition of the event for many years.
Car lovers have flooded the nation's capital for the annual motoring event, which runs through the weekend.
As well as the city cruise, highlights include the burnout competition, mullet competition, lawnmower racing and the show-and-shine.
About 500 cars took part in 2024's city cruise. You can relive that in the video below.
