| The '''Mach 8''' is a [[kart]] from the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series. It resembles both a jet with a turbine-shaped grille in the front and the Formula One cars of the 1950s, having a color combination reminiscent of the blue and yellow OSCA Tipo G 4500 with a more intense blue color while sporting a yellow racing stripe and tailfin. Probably because of that, it is represented in the artworks of ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' with [[Slim (tire)|Slim tires]]. The emblem is located on the hood and either side of the tailfin.
| | '''Mach 8''' is a [[kart]] body appearing in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]''. It resembles a blue-colored jet with a turbine-like engine in the front, as well as sporting a yellow racing stripe and tailfin. The Mach 8 is good at speed and weight, but has below average acceleration and traction. The front and back of the body illuminate when the body goes into [[anti-gravity]] mode. The kart itself shares the same exact stats with the [[Sports Coupe]] and [[Circuit Special]]. |

| ====''Mario Kart 8'' / ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''====
| |
| The Mach 8 debuts in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' as a kart body. It is a midweight component that offers good speed, but has below average acceleration and poor traction. The front and back of the body illuminate when the body goes into [[anti-gravity]] mode. The kart itself shares the same exact stats with the [[Sports Coupe]], [[Circuit Special]], [[Gold Standard]], [[B Dasher]], and [[P-Wing (kart)|P-Wing]]. The engine is supercharged, resembling a flat-twelve from a {{wp|Ferrari Testarossa}}, and can also be heard when the kart is moving.
| |
| | |
| CPU-controlled [[Luigi]] may occasionally use this vehicle body, often paired with the [[Slim (tire)|Slim tires]]. In fact, Luigi's main artwork also depicts him driving the Mach 8. In ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', CPU Yoshi and Birdo are also seen occasionally using this body, both with the [[Slim (tire)|Slim tires]]. [[Link|Champion's Tunic Link]] uses this vehicle as well but is equipped with the [[Triforce Tires]] instead.
| |
| | |
| While the Mach 8 is a starting vehicle body in ''Mario Kart 8'', in ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'' it must be unlocked by collecting [[coin]]s. Its stats have also changed to slightly boosting weight and traction, while slightly lowering acceleration and handling. It shares stats with only the [[Sports Coupe]] and [[Inkstriker]].
| |
| | |
| ====''Mario Kart Tour''====
| |
| The Mach 8 returns in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' where it is classified as a Super kart. It uses the [[Slim (tire)|Slim]] tires from ''Mario Kart 8'' and ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''. The Mach 8 increases the duration of [[Slipstream]] boosts and the number of points earned for performing Slipstreams.
| |
| | |
| The game introduces a koinobori-styled variant called the [[Karp Kart]] and a black and flame-styled variant called the [[Mach 8-R]], both of which are classified as High-End karts. The Mach 8 has been regularly available in pipes and appears in the Daily Selects lineup.
| |
| | |
| ===''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''===
| |
| Luigi's Mach 8 appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' as an Advanced-type support [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirit]] that takes up two support slots. When the spirit is used in certain spirit battles, the screen will never flip upside down. The spirit's puppet fighter is [[Luigi]] on the [[Mario Circuit (Super Smash Bros. for Wii U)|Mario Circuit]] stage; during the spirit's assigned battle, every fighter is under the effect of high gravity. The enemy can deal damage by simply running into the player. The spirit can be obtained from the Spirit Board as well as [[Funky Kong]]'s Shack for 1,000 Spirit Points at regular price.
