| ==Battle==
| |
| [[File:Bowser Mobile Battle.png|thumb|left|Cat Mario kicking a bomb at Bowser]]
| |
| Bowser's Muscle Car appears as the boss of [[World 1 (Super Mario 3D World)|World 1]]. The battlefield consists of a long highway, which the car drives along, with the player pursuing it. Bowser tosses Kick Bombs that must be hit back at him nine times if the bombs hit the car itself or three times if the bombs strike Bowser directly (Kick Bombs can be lobbed high for this by hitting them with the [[Cat Mario|Cat form]]'s scratch attack or the [[Tanooki Mario|Tanooki form]]'s tail attack or by [[roll]]ing into them); players can also defeat him with 27 hits from the [[Boomerang Mario|Boomerang form]]'s [[boomerang]]s or 45 hits from the [[Fire Mario|Fire form]]'s fireballs. As Bowser takes damage, he breathes more fireballs and throws fewer Kick Bombs. The first stretch of the highway is very basic. The only things of note are a small rise that the car and player must jump to and a small ditch cut through the road. At the end of this stretch, Bowser ramps up to the next section of the highway. The player can follow via a [[Warp Box]] dropped by Bowser. The next section has two short walls on the sides that Bowser's Muscle Car rides on. Between the walls, a [[Goomba Tower]] and a [[Goomba]] carrying a [[Super Bell]] can be found. After this is a small jump, followed by a big jump to the next section. The next section is very simple, with the only thing of note being a small jump. This section repeats itself for the remainder of the battle. After being hit enough times, the car crashes away, breaking the road in the process. Bowser realizes that there is nothing supporting him and falls down to the wreckage. The car explodes when he lands, and he is blasted away. The Warp Box to the [[Goal Pole]] then appears along with some [[coin]]s.

| | ===Mario Kart 8=== |
| Bowser's Muscle Car is battled again at Bowser's Lava Lake Keep, the final [[level]] of [[World Castle]]. It returns with new neon blue and pink details. In this battle, Bowser does not throw as many Kick Bombs and breathes more fireballs. However, the number of hits Bowser and his car take before defeat is the same as in the previous fight. Some of the Kick Bombs he throws are already activated and harm the player if touched. The layout of the highway is also more hazardous. In the first section, there are retractable [[Spike Trap|spike]]s in different spots throughout the road, as well as two pits with [[Lava Geyser]]s. The next area is a large grated bridge. Lava Geysers may spew up here. After a bit, the bridge splits into two sides, just close enough together for Bowser's Muscle Car to be supported by both sides. The bridge soon ends, and there is another jump to the next section. This is a repeating stretch with several vertical rows of spikes that retract in rapid succession.
| | Bowser Mobile is confirmed in appears in [[Mario Kart 8]] how unlocked kart. He is unlocked after of collect 100 coins. |
