The '''Cact-X''' is a [[kart]] in the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series. As its name states, the kart body is shaped like a [[cactus]], more specifically a saguaro cactus due to the exhaust pipes being cactus arms. It has a spike at the front similar to the stinger at the front of the [[Bumble V]]. The emblem is located on the hood (and on the back of the engine in ''Mario Kart Tour'').

The Cact-X first appears in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' as an unlockable kart body part. It offers a boost in handling and off-road but has reductions in speed and acceleration. It is one of the only five karts to increase off-road boost, with the other four being the [[Bolt Buggy]], [[Bumble V]], [[Pipe Frame]], and [[Tiny Tug]]. It has the same engine sound as the [[Koopa Clown]], which is a {{wp|V-twin engine}}.  

CPU [[Toad]] has a preference for using this body.

The Cact-X reappears in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', where it is classified as a High-End kart. It increases the length of [[Slipstream]] boosts and the amount of points earned for performing Slipstreams. It uses the [[Sponge]] tires from ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]''. An icy-blue variant named the [[Cact-Ice]] was introduced in the [[Snow Tour]], a red variant named the [[Cact-R]] was introduced in the [[Toad vs. Toadette Tour]], and a black variant named the [[Cact-B]] was introduced in the [[Bowser Tour (2022)|2022 Bowser Tour]]. All three variants are classified as High-End karts.
