The '''Bumble V''' is a [[kart]] part that appears in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]''. Its name is a pun of the word "Bumblebee", and itself resembles a bee in most aspects. The Bumble V offers an acceleration and off-road boost, but its weight and handling are hindered. The Bumble V is tied with the [[Barrel Train]] and [[Bruiser]] for having the lowest handling of all kart bodies, and it is tied with the [[Birthday Girl]] and [[Egg 1]] for having the highest acceleration of all kart bodies, and it has the highest acceleration of any kart body that doesn't have a negative impact on the Speed stat. It is also one of only five kart bodies to increase the off-road stat, with the other four being the [[Bolt Buggy]], [[Cact-X]], [[Pipe Frame]], and [[Tiny Tug]].

The '''Bumble V''' is a [[kart]] in the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series. Its name is a pun of the word "bumblebee", and the kart itself is based on a bee. Its design bears a slight resemblance to a [[Stingby]], with a stinger at the front similar to the spike at the front of the [[Cact-X]], and its taillights resemble honeycombs, fitting with the bee theme. Its engine sound is similar to the noise of a bee buzzing and almost like a {{wp|Wankel engine}} from a {{wp|Mazda RX-7}} and {{wp|Mazda RX-8}}. The emblem is located on the sides and back of the kart.

The Bumble V first appears as a kart part in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]''. It offers an acceleration and off-road boost, but its weight and handling are hindered. The Bumble V is tied with the [[Barrel Train]] and [[Bruiser]] for having the lowest handling of all kart bodies, and it is tied with the [[Birthday Girl]] and [[Egg 1]] for having the highest acceleration of all kart bodies, and it has the highest acceleration of any kart body that does not have a negative impact on the Speed stat. It is also one of only five kart bodies to increase the off-road stat, with the other four being the [[Bolt Buggy]], [[Cact-X]], [[Pipe Frame]], and [[Tiny Tug]].


In terms of its hidden stats, the Bumble V offers one of the highest mini-turbo boosts, which it shares with the Barrel Train and [[Koopa Clown]] kart bodies.

It is one of the three vehicles in ''Mario Kart 7'' to have a two-stroke engine, the other being the [[Standard Kart]] and the [[Cloud 9]]. Its engine sound is shared with the Cloud 9, which in turn based on [[Koopa Troopa]] and [[Toad]]'s [[Pipe Frame|kart]] in ''[[Super Mario Kart]]''.

The Bumble V returns in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]''. It appears to be equipped with a new set of tires debuting in the game. The game also introduces a variant with inversed colors, named the '''Queen Bee'''. Both versions of the kart increase score and boost time from [[Dash Panel]]s and share the High-End classification, but are treated as two separate vehicles. The only major difference between the two karts are the tires, in which the Queen Bee has Sponge tires equipped instead, with their designs taken from ''Mario Kart 8'' and ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''.
====''Mario Kart Tour''====
The Bumble V returns in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', where it is classified as a High-End kart. In the closed beta for the game, the kart used the [[Slick]] tires from ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', while in the final game, it uses the [[Pipe Frame]]'s tires instead. The seat is also now colored dark blue instead of orange. The Bumble V increases the duration of [[Dash Panel]] speed boosts and the number of points earned for using Dash Panels.


==Stat boosts==
The game introduces two variants of the Bumble V: a black and gold one named the [[Queen Bee]], and the other with a pink-gold and silver color scheme named the [[Rose Queen]]. Both of them are classified as High-End karts.
 
The Bumble V appears in the First Pipe and Second Pipe of each tour and is also a part of the Daily Selects set. Between January 29, 2020 and February 5, 2020 during the [[Valentine's Tour]], it was also available as a special offer in the Bumble V Pack.

The ''Mario Kart 7'' artwork of [[Yoshi]] driving the Bumble V appears on a Level 2 Yoshi [[Battle Card (Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam)|Character Card]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]''. The card can be used to apply eight points of damage to all enemies on the screen simultaneously.

The Bumble V is a kart in the Mario Kart series. Its name is a pun of the word "bumblebee", and the kart itself is based on a bee. Its design bears a slight resemblance to a Stingby, with a stinger at the front similar to the spike at the front of the Cact-X, and its taillights resemble honeycombs, fitting with the bee theme. Its engine sound is similar to the noise of a bee buzzing and almost like a Wankel engine from a Mazda RX-7 and Mazda RX-8. The emblem is located on the sides and back of the kart.

Mario Kart series

Mario Kart 7

Yoshi
Artwork of Yoshi in the Bumble V for Mario Kart 7

The Bumble V first appears as a kart part in Mario Kart 7. It offers an acceleration and off-road boost, but its weight and handling are hindered. The Bumble V is tied with the Barrel Train and Bruiser for having the lowest handling of all kart bodies, and it is tied with the Birthday Girl and Egg 1 for having the highest acceleration of all kart bodies, and it has the highest acceleration of any kart body that does not have a negative impact on the Speed stat. It is also one of only five kart bodies to increase the off-road stat, with the other four being the Bolt Buggy, Cact-X, Pipe Frame, and Tiny Tug.

In terms of its hidden stats, the Bumble V offers one of the highest mini-turbo boosts, which it shares with the Barrel Train and Koopa Clown kart bodies.

It is one of the three vehicles in Mario Kart 7 to have a two-stroke engine that sounds like a two-rotor Wankel, the other being the Standard Kart and the Cloud 9.

CPU Honey Queen and Wario can occasionally drive this body.

Mario Kart Tour

The Bumble V returns in Mario Kart Tour, where it is classified as a High-End kart. In the closed beta for the game, the kart used the Slick tires from Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, while in the final game, it uses the Pipe Frame's tires instead. The seat is also now colored dark blue instead of orange. The Bumble V increases the duration of Dash Panel speed boosts and the number of points earned for using Dash Panels.

The game introduces two variants of the Bumble V: a black and gold one named the Queen Bee, and the other with a pink-gold and silver color scheme named the Rose Queen. Both of them are classified as High-End karts.

The Bumble V appears in the First Pipe and Second Pipe of each tour and is also a part of the Daily Selects set. Between January 29, 2020 and February 5, 2020 during the Valentine's Tour, it was also available as a special offer in the Bumble V Pack.
