roller coaster car

Sorry, I am not a member.

And if I say "the car was launched into motion" instead of started moving? Would it be correct?

When I least expected it, the roller coaster car was launched into motion.

I suppose it would be possible.

I don't think I'd use "launched". If you are trying to describe a sudden, unexpected movement, you might try:

lurched forward
lurched ahead
jerked into motion
