The '''Inkstriker''' is one of the four additional vehicle bodies in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' not present in the [[Mario Kart 8|original game]]. It is one of the two [[All-Terrain Vehicle|ATV]]s based on the [[inkipedia:Splatoon|''Splatoon'' series]] and in turn the [[Inkling]]s' signature vehicles, the other being the [[Splat Buggy]]. Unlike the Splat Buggy, the vehicle is unlockable. The vehicle is named and based on the [[inkipedia:Inkstrike|Inkstrike]] weapon from the ''Splatoon'' series. It has two tanks of ink at the back, which have the same ink color as the [[Inkling]] being played as (purple if playing as anyone else), and features unique exhaust pipes that spray ink when getting a speed boost. The emblem is located on the nose. Characters outside of the Inklings use the Purple Inkling Boy variation of the vehicle, with a [[? Block]] featured in the vehicle (this also applies to [[Link]], the [[Villager]]s, and [[Isabelle]], who are not part of the ''Super Mario'' franchise). Inklings have their own color schemes, much similar in the vein of the Splat Buggy.

The Inkstriker shares its stats with the [[Sports Coupe]] and the [[Mach 8]] karts. It boosts weight and traction while reducing acceleration and handling.

It uses the engine sound with the [[Landship]]. Similarly to the [[Blue Falcon]], a small explosion sound can be heard when boosting using a [[Mushroom]] or driving through a [[Dash Panel]]; the Inkstriker's sound, however, is different and louder instead. It is also powered by a {{wp|straight-twin engine}}.

 

CPU-controlled Inkling Boys and Inkling Girls occasionally use this vehicle body paired with [[Standard (tire)|Standard]] tires.
