| ===''Mario Kart DS''=== | | |image=[[File:Poltergust4000.png|250px|]]<br>[[Luigi]] on his '''Poltergust 4000'''. |
| The kart debuts in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'' as [[Luigi]]'s default signature [[kart]], being unlocked for [[Yoshi]] and [[Waluigi]] as well when the player wins a gold trophy in all Nitro or Retro cups on 150cc. It becomes available for everyone else when a gold trophy is won in every cup on 150cc Mirror Mode.
| | |high=Speed, Acceleration and Handling |
| | | |low=Weight, Drift and Items |
| The Poltergust 4000 has good speed, acceleration, and handling, and low weight, drift, and items. Its speed is tied with that of the [[Gold Mantis]], and its weight is tied with the [[Mushmellow]]. The [[List of Mario Kart DS pre-release and unused content|pre-release version of the Poltergust 4000]] had [[Professor Elvin Gadd|Professor E. Gadd]]'s emblem on it, implying that the kart is one of E. Gadd's inventions.

| ===''Mario Kart Tour''===
| | The '''Poltergust 4000''' is [[Luigi]]'s [[kart]] of choice from ''[[Mario Kart DS]]''. The kart appears to be the upgraded model of the [[Poltergust 3000]] from ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]'' and is implied to be [[Professor Elvin Gadd|Professor E. Gadd]]'s creation. It has good speed, acceleration and handling but low weight, drift and items. Its speed is tied with that of the [[Rambi Rider]]. |
| The Poltergust 4000 returns in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', where it is classified as a Super kart. It uses the [[Standard (tire)|Standard]] tires from ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', and offers longer-lasting [[Slipstream]] boosts while awarding bonus points for performing Slipstreams. An icy-blue variant, named the [[Ice-blue Poltergust]], was introduced in this game as a High-End kart. | | {{br|left}} |
