The '''Piranha Prowler''' is a large [[kart]] that appears in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]''. The character's emblem is on the kart's forehead and seen on both sides of the vehicle. The kart resembles the [[Piranha Plant]], specifically [[Petey Piranha]], with Funky Kong's color scheme resembling him the most. In addition, [[Bowser]]'s Piranha Prowler resembles the [[Pit Plant]] from ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'', while the female [[Mii]]'s and [[Donkey Kong]]'s resemble the two different [[Dino Piranha]]s from ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. The kart can be unlocked by winning the 50cc [[Special Cup]], or by playing 600 races.

This kart does not have a [[bike]] counterpart for its size class, though the lightweight [[Jet Bubble]] has a similar stat distribution. Coincidentally, the Piranha Prowler and Jet Bubble are the heaviest kart and bike in their respective size classes. It is one of six vehicles that does not have a counterpart for its size class, the other five being the [[Blue Falcon]], Jet Bubble, [[Classic Dragster]], [[Phantom (bike)|Phantom]], and [[Zip Zip]].
This kart does not have a [[bike]] counterpart. In fact, no other vehicle has stats that are similar to this kart's stats.


The mouth of the kart opens up when driving; this is most noticeable when it spins out, the player does a [[Trick|trick]] or blasted out of the cannon in {{classic-link|GCN|DK Mountain}}, [[Wii DK Summit|DK Summit]] and [[Wii Maple Treeway|Maple Treeway]], the speed jump in {{classic-link|N64|DK's Jungle Parkway}} and the Launch Star in [[Wii Rainbow Road|Rainbow Road]].

The Piranha Prowler is the heaviest vehicle in the game. Having the highest weight stat in the game allows it to not only push around lighter vehicles with ease, but also jump at the lowest angle out of any vehicle in the game. It also has good speed, but its other stats are rather low. However, despite most of the Piranha Prowler's stats being below average, they exceed that of the [[Jetsetter]] kart.

Its handling and off-road are tied with the [[Bullet Bike]]. Its drift is tied with the [[Sugarscoot]]. Its speed is tied with the [[Mach Bike]] and the Mini Beast.
