History

The Hot Rod was the twenty-second Iron Man suit created by Tony Stark, and one of the many armors he developed after the battle for New York against Loki and the Chitauri. The attack had left him with the feeling that the world couldn't be safe for long, and that he needed to build more suits until the next time Earth was in danger.

Iron Man Armor MK XXII (Earth-199999) from Iron Man 3 (film) 001
The Hot Rod suit was among those summoned by Stark to battle Extremis-enhanced soldiers assisting Aldrich Killian's plot. It was controlled at the time by Stark's A.I. program, J.A.R.V.I.S.. When Tony ordered J.A.R.V.I.S. to bring him a suit in order to rescue Pepper Potts from falling to her death, the A.I. sent this suit to Stark's aid, but the armor was quickly tackled and destroyed by an Extremis soldier before Tony could suit up.[1]
