Appears in Mario Kart Tour

The Manta Glider is a High-End glider in Mario Kart Tour. It was introduced in the Marine Tour, and like the name indicates, it is a glider that resembles a Manta. It is the signature glider of Penguin Luigi. The emblem is located on the center of the glider. Hitting opponents with Bob-ombs awards more points when using this glider.

Four variants of this glider also exist in the game: a silver one simply called the Silver Manta Glider that debuted in the Peach vs. Daisy Tour, a blue one with spots called the Polka-Dot Manta Glider that debuted in the 2021 Summer Tour, and an orange one with flames called the Fire Manta Glider that debuted in the Ocean Tour, and a gold variant called the Gold Manta Glider which debuted in the 2023 Bowser Tour.

Availability[edit]

Starting from the Frost Tour, the Manta Glider is available in all regular tour pipes, including the All-Clear Pipe. As of the Battle Tour, the Manta Glider is also a part of the Daily Selects lineup.
