The '''Standard''' is a type of [[kart]] that appears in the ''Mario Kart series''. They first appeared in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'' and appeared in all ''Mario Kart'' games afterward. Standard karts are generally basic in terms of stats, not usually having any advantage or disadvantages in any specific stat. There are several variations of the Standard kart, though each have their own unique stats.

The '''Standard Kart''' is a type of [[kart]] that appears in the [[Mario Kart (series)|''Mario Kart'' series]]. They first appeared in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'' and appeared in all ''Mario Kart'' games afterward. Before ''DS'', all standard karts are the [[Pipe Frame]] model, though the [[Toad Kart]] and the [[Toadette Kart]] from ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'' are similar to the Standard Karts in design. Standard Karts generally have balanced attributes, not usually having any advantage or disadvantages in any particular stat. In ''Mario Kart DS'', there are several variations of the Standard Kart, though each has stats that vary with each character or weight class.


==''Mario Kart DS''==
Being a basic vehicle, the Standard Kart closely resembles a real {{wp|go-kart}}, unlike other karts in the series.
The Standard kart made its first appearance in ''Mario Kart DS''. Each playable character has a Standard kart, being named Standard Kart followed by an abbreviation of the character's name (MR for Mario, LG for Luigi etc.) These karts are redesigned, having white bumpers and a hood of different color palettes that matches the character's custom color. The decal of the character is shown over the hood, although the player can replace it for his or her own in the [[Mario Kart DS#Options|emblem maker option]]. Each character's Standard had their own unique stats though they also depended on the weight class of the character. Lightweights had better handling and acceleration while heavyweights had higher speed and weight. All Standards in this game gave 2 [[Mushroom]]s in Time Trials.

The Standard Kart makes its first appearance in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'', modeled directly after the [[Toad Kart]] and [[Toadette Kart]] from ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'' Each playable character has a Standard kart, being named "Standard" followed by an abbreviation of the character's name (MR for Mario, LG for Luigi, etc.) These karts are redesigned, having white bumpers and a body frame of different colors that matches the character's color. The emblem of the character is shown over the hood, although the player can replace it for their own in the [[Mario Kart DS#Options|emblem maker option]]. Each character's Standard Kart has its own unique stats (though they also depend on the weight class of the character). Lightweight characters have better handling and acceleration while heavyweight characters have higher speed and weight. All Standard Karts in this game give two [[Mushroom]]s in Time Trials. The eight characters from ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart: Super Circuit]]'' have mostly the same color palettes for each of their respective Pipe Frames on their Standard Karts as they did in said games; or in the case of [[Princess Peach|Peach]] and [[Wario]], their Standard Karts are slightly lighter shades. There are 13 Standard Karts in the game; the [[Shy Guy]]s, only usable in multiplayer, have the same stats as Yoshi.

==''Mario Kart Wii''==
Standard Karts have a enlarged version of the engine block from the Pipe Frames and the same exhausts from the mentioned vehicle. The karts in this game come with a four-stroke engine with distinctive, high-pitched sound, sharing the same sound with other karts.
Standards reappear in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]''. This time, there is a Standard for each individual weight class rather for each character. They are named '''Standard Kart S''' for small, '''Standard Kart M''' for middle and '''Standard Kart L''' for large. Along with the Standard Karts, there are also [[Standard Bike]]s due to the introduction of bikes in the game. Each weight class of Standards have their own stats that reflect on the respective weight class. Lightweights were generally better with all stats except for speed and weight while heavyweights were opposite.

====''Mario Kart Arcade GP 2''====
'''Standard Kart S'''
The karts from ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP]]'' return in ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP 2]]'', still sharing the same universal design for each character aside from the color scheme. ''Mario Kart Arcade GP 2'' introduces secondary, personalized kart options for each character, with the karts from the first ''Mario Kart Arcade GP'' game becoming the standard, primary option.

====''Mario Kart Wii''====
Standard Karts have been rebuilt in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'' with a new design featuring a two-stroke twin cylinder engine with four exhaust pipes and a more powerful sound, and the emblem on the block in the front and on a license plate on the back. This time, there is a Standard Kart for each individual size class rather for each character. They are named [[Standard Kart S]] for small characters, [[Standard Kart M]] for medium characters and [[Standard Kart L]] for large characters. Along with the Standard Karts, there are also [[Standard Bike]]s due to the introduction of bikes in the game. Each size class of Standard Karts has its own stats that reflect on the respective size class. Small characters are generally better with all stats except for speed and weight, while large characters are the opposite.

====''Mario Kart 7''====
Standard Karts are rebuilt again in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' with an appearance resembling the [[Toad Kart]] and [[Toadette Kart]] from ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'', while retaining the same engine sound from ''Mario Kart Wii''. Like in ''Mario Kart DS'', the emblem is once again located on the hood. In this game, the Standard Karts (along with the other karts) are equipped with retractable hang-gliders and propellers for driving underwater. It tends to have average stats, with below average stats in underwater handling and Mini-Turbo. This game also introduces the [[Gold Standard]] and the return of [[Pipe Frame]], the kart that appeared in the first three ''Mario Kart'' games.

'''Standard Kart M'''
====''Mario Kart Arcade GP DX''====

|Speed
The Standard Kart has been rebuilt yet again in ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP DX]]'', being the first game in the ''Mario Kart Arcade GP'' subseries that uses a different design for its Standard Karts. The karts' overall design appears to be a mixture between the designs of ''Mario Kart Wii'' and ''Mario Kart 7'', having a more angular design, and the emblem located on the block the steering wheel is attached to, as well as on the kart's rear. The kart is doused in a single primary color, edged with white and a secondary color. Unique about this design is that the exhaust pipes have been given a pink coloration, whereas they are black or gray in other iterations. Given it is the default option, the Standard Kart does not give additional points to top speed, acceleration or handling, unlike the unlockable karts.
|width=200|<div style="background:#55ff55;width:57.5%">46/80</div>
 
[[File:MKAGPDX Lakitu Standard.jpg|thumb|left|x100px|Lakitu in his Standard Kart.]]
With the exception of [[Tanooki Mario]] and [[Gold Mario]], all character skins share the same color scheme as the character's default outfit.
 
[[Lakitu]], a downloadable character, is the only one whose Standard Kart has a completely different design, despite being given the same name as all the other Standard Karts.<ref>https://www.4gamer.net/games/203/G020305/20181214119/</ref><ref>[https://youtu.be/p9WkvW3FN94 Mario Kart Arcade GP DX 1.18 - 150cc Course Races (Reverse cup - Bowser JR. CUP)]</ref> Lakitu's Standard Kart resembles a [[Lakitu's Cloud]], not unlike the [[Cloud 9]] from ''Mario Kart 7'', with a blue seat instead of a black one, tiny exhaust pipes hidden within the lower part of the cloud's rear, and rainbow-colored tires with covers that resemble Lakitu's emblem, also a Lakitu's Cloud. Much like the Cloud 9, Lakitu's emblem is also displayed on the kart's rear.

====''Mario Kart 8'' / ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''====
The Standard Kart rebuilt once again in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', once again redesigned and looking similar to the one seen in ''Mario Kart Arcade GP DX'', but with slightly more rounded bodywork and smaller engine block. Like in ''Mario Kart DS'' and ''Mario Kart 7'', the emblem is located on the hood. In ''Mario Kart 8'' the Standard Kart again tends to have average stats, with above average air speed and traction while having below average acceleration and anti-gravity handling, while in ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'' the Standard Kart has an increased acceleration, Mini-Turbo, anti-gravity speed, ground handling and anti-gravity handling at the expense of decreased traction and air speed, leading to average values in all stats. Like the ''Mario Kart Wii'' and ''Mario Kart 7'' counterparts, it has a two-stroke engine, and its sound is shared with the [[Pipe Frame]], [[Teddy Buggy]], [[Wild Wiggler]], [[Sneeker]], and [[Splat Buggy]].
All CPUs may use this kart body, often pairing it with the [[Standard (tire)|Standard]] tires. However, the CPU-controlled heavyweights who have a large body frame (excluding [[Link]], as well as [[Pauline]] in ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'') will most likely pair this kart body with the [[Monster (tire)|Monster]] tires instead. In ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'', [[Rosalina]] now uses this body with the Standard tires instead, and Bowser and the Koopalings no longer use this body.

==''Mario Kart 7''==
====''Mario Kart Tour''====
Standards reappear in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' with a similar appearance to the ones in ''Mario Kart DS''. In this game, the Standards (along with the other kart parts) were equipped with gliders and propellers for driving underwater. Unlike past games, the Standards here didn't offer any stat changes due to the main stats relying more on the weight class of the character. This game also introduces the [[Gold Standard]] which does alter the stats and the [[Pipe Frame]], the standard kart that appeared in the first three ''Mario Kart'' games.
While no new kart bearing the name "Standard Kart" appears in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', the Pipe Frame fulfills its role as the de facto Standard Kart in this game, being the kart new players start with, being classified as a Normal kart, and having varying color schemes per character, whereas alternate color schemes for other karts are made to be separate karts.


===Stats===
The ''Mario Kart 8'' Standard Kart also returns in ''Mario Kart Tour'', as two separate karts. Mario's color scheme appears as the [[Red Standard 8]] and is classified as a Super kart. Luigi's color scheme is used for a variant of this kart, called the [[Green Standard 8]], which is also classified as a Super kart.

The ''Mario Kart DS'' variations of the Standard Kart also appear in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' on the [[Figure-8 Circuit (stage)|Mario Circuit]] stage. They appear in multiple colors and are driven by Shy Guys. They act as hazards which can KO the players if they are not careful.

==''Mario Kart 8''==
====''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U''====
Standards will reappear in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' with an appearance similar to that of the previous installment. Along with being able to glide and go underwater, the karts are also fitted to drive along the walls and ceilings.
The Standard Karts from ''Mario Kart 8'' are seen in the "Comet Observatory" trailer for ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'', where they are driven by Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, Bowser, and Donkey Kong around [[3DS Rainbow Road|Rainbow Road]]. Their race is interrupted by the sudden presence of Kirby on his Warp Star and his interaction with Rosalina and her Luma.
 
In ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'', in the [[Rainbow Road (stage)|Rainbow Road]] stage, Shy Guys once again appear racing in Standard Karts, though this time they are the ones used in ''Mario Kart 7''. Mario's, Bowser's, and Shy Guy's Standard Karts from ''Mario Kart 7'' make cameo appearances as [[Trophy (Super Smash Bros. series)|trophies]]. Shy Guys also appear in the [[Mario Circuit (Super Smash Bros. for Wii U)|Mario Circuit stage]] in ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'' with the same role as the other ''Mario Kart''-inspired tracks, with the Standard models being from ''Mario Kart 8''.
 
''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'' additionally features ''Mario Kart DS'' Standard Karts in the same instances as in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', being driven by Shy Guys on the Mario Circuit (Brawl) stage.
 
====''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''====
In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', Shy Guys drive around in Standard Karts on the Figure-8 Circuit and Mario Circuit once again, using their respective designs. A Standard Kart also appears as a Novice-class {{iw|smashwiki|support spirit}} that uses artwork of Koopa Troopa from ''Mario Kart Wii''. When used, the [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirit]] occupies one support slot and equips the fighter with a [[Boomerang]] at the start of a battle. The spirit's battle involves four {{iw|smashwiki|Squirtle (SSBU)|Squirtle}}s faced on the Figure-8 Circuit stage, with [[Green Shell]]s as the only items that spawn, reflecting the artwork used to represent the spirit.
 
===''Paper Mario'' series===
====''Paper Mario: Color Splash''====
[[File:PMCS kart.png|thumb|180px|Luigi's Green Standard Kart]]
In ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]'', Luigi can be seen driving his Standard Kart from ''Mario Kart 8'', with the kart being made of paper and cardboard to match the game's art style. Once Mario and Huey collect all of the [[Big Paint Star]]s, Luigi appears and uses his kart to transport them to [[Black Bowser's Castle]], with the help of a Rainbow Road created by the paint fountain.

====''Paper Mario: The Origami King''====
In ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]]'', Luigi is again seen driving a Standard Kart, with the design being the same as the one seen in the previous game. At the start of the game, Mario and Luigi use the kart to reach [[Toad Town]]. Towards the end, Luigi arrives at [[Peach's Castle]] using a [[Glider]] equipped to the kart.
 
===''Super Mario Run''===
In ''[[Super Mario Run]]'', a statue of Mario on his Standard Kart in antigravity, called a Mario Kart Statue, appears as a [[List of Kingdom Builder items in Super Mario Run|building]] during the ''Mario Kart'' event. The event also included a Banana Statue and Blooper Statue. Tapping on a Mario Kart Statue creates engine noises. It has since been made available through the Remix 10 mode.

==Trivia==
*The Standard Kart from ''Mario Kart Wii'' is the only version of this kart that do not appear in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' / ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U|Wii U]]'', as Shy Guys are seen driving the version of the kart from ''Mario Kart 7'' in the 3DS version and the ''Mario Kart 8'' version (which was already seen in the [[smashwiki:Movies#In Smash 4|"Comet Observatory" trailer]]) in the Wii U version, and the ''Mario Kart DS'' version of the karts returns from ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''.
**Similarly, the Standard Kart from ''Mario Kart 7'' is the only version of the kart that does not appear in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', due to Rainbow Road being absent, as well as the Standard Kart from ''Mario Kart Wii'' appearing as a [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirit]].
*In ''Mario Kart 7'', the Standard Kart has a similar engine sound as Mario and Luigi's kart in ''Mario Kart 64''.
*Tanooki Mario's Standard Kart in ''Mario Kart 8'' and ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'' has exhaust pipes that are painted to look like his tail, which could be a pun on the term "tailpipe". His [[Standard Bike]] also has this.

This article is about Standard Kart. For other articles that use the name Standard, see Standard.

The Standard Kart is a type of kart that appears in the Mario Kart series. They first appeared in Mario Kart DS and appeared in all Mario Kart games afterward. Before DS, all standard karts are the Pipe Frame model, though the Toad Kart and the Toadette Kart from Mario Kart: Double Dash!! are similar to the Standard Karts in design. Standard Karts generally have balanced attributes, not usually having any advantage or disadvantages in any particular stat. In Mario Kart DS, there are several variations of the Standard Kart, though each has stats that vary with each character or weight class.

Being a basic vehicle, the Standard Kart closely resembles a real go-kart, unlike other karts in the series.

History[edit]

Mario Kart series[edit]

Mario Kart DS[edit]

The Standard Kart makes its first appearance in Mario Kart DS, modeled directly after the Toad Kart and Toadette Kart from Mario Kart: Double Dash!! Each playable character has a Standard kart, being named "Standard" followed by an abbreviation of the character's name (MR for Mario, LG for Luigi, etc.) These karts are redesigned, having white bumpers and a body frame of different colors that matches the character's color. The emblem of the character is shown over the hood, although the player can replace it for their own in the emblem maker option. Each character's Standard Kart has its own unique stats (though they also depend on the weight class of the character). Lightweight characters have better handling and acceleration while heavyweight characters have higher speed and weight. All Standard Karts in this game give two Mushrooms in Time Trials. The eight characters from Mario Kart 64 and Mario Kart: Super Circuit have mostly the same color palettes for each of their respective Pipe Frames on their Standard Karts as they did in said games; or in the case of Peach and Wario, their Standard Karts are slightly lighter shades. There are 13 Standard Karts in the game; the Shy Guys, only usable in multiplayer, have the same stats as Yoshi.

Standard Karts have a enlarged version of the engine block from the Pipe Frames and the same exhausts from the mentioned vehicle. The karts in this game come with a four-stroke engine with distinctive, high-pitched sound, sharing the same sound with other karts.

Mario Kart Arcade GP 2[edit]

The karts from Mario Kart Arcade GP return in Mario Kart Arcade GP 2, still sharing the same universal design for each character aside from the color scheme. Mario Kart Arcade GP 2 introduces secondary, personalized kart options for each character, with the karts from the first Mario Kart Arcade GP game becoming the standard, primary option.

Mario Kart Wii[edit]

Standard Karts have been rebuilt in Mario Kart Wii with a new design featuring a two-stroke twin cylinder engine with four exhaust pipes and a more powerful sound, and the emblem on the block in the front and on a license plate on the back. This time, there is a Standard Kart for each individual size class rather for each character. They are named Standard Kart S for small characters, Standard Kart M for medium characters and Standard Kart L for large characters. Along with the Standard Karts, there are also Standard Bikes due to the introduction of bikes in the game. Each size class of Standard Karts has its own stats that reflect on the respective size class. Small characters are generally better with all stats except for speed and weight, while large characters are the opposite.

Mario Kart 7[edit]

Standard Karts are rebuilt again in Mario Kart 7 with an appearance resembling the Toad Kart and Toadette Kart from Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, while retaining the same engine sound from Mario Kart Wii. Like in Mario Kart DS, the emblem is once again located on the hood. In this game, the Standard Karts (along with the other karts) are equipped with retractable hang-gliders and propellers for driving underwater. It tends to have average stats, with below average stats in underwater handling and Mini-Turbo. This game also introduces the Gold Standard and the return of Pipe Frame, the kart that appeared in the first three Mario Kart games.

Mario Kart Arcade GP DX[edit]

Mario in what appears to be his standard kart in Mario Kart Arcade GP DX.
Mario in his Standard Kart, with corresponding stat additions.

The Standard Kart has been rebuilt yet again in Mario Kart Arcade GP DX, being the first game in the Mario Kart Arcade GP subseries that uses a different design for its Standard Karts. The karts' overall design appears to be a mixture between the designs of Mario Kart Wii and Mario Kart 7, having a more angular design, and the emblem located on the block the steering wheel is attached to, as well as on the kart's rear. The kart is doused in a single primary color, edged with white and a secondary color. Unique about this design is that the exhaust pipes have been given a pink coloration, whereas they are black or gray in other iterations. Given it is the default option, the Standard Kart does not give additional points to top speed, acceleration or handling, unlike the unlockable karts.

With the exception of Tanooki Mario and Gold Mario, all character skins share the same color scheme as the character's default outfit.

Lakitu, a downloadable character, is the only one whose Standard Kart has a completely different design, despite being given the same name as all the other Standard Karts.[1][2] Lakitu's Standard Kart resembles a Lakitu's Cloud, not unlike the Cloud 9 from Mario Kart 7, with a blue seat instead of a black one, tiny exhaust pipes hidden within the lower part of the cloud's rear, and rainbow-colored tires with covers that resemble Lakitu's emblem, also a Lakitu's Cloud. Much like the Cloud 9, Lakitu's emblem is also displayed on the kart's rear.

Mario Kart 8 / Mario Kart 8 Deluxe[edit]

The Standard Kart rebuilt once again in Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, once again redesigned and looking similar to the one seen in Mario Kart Arcade GP DX, but with slightly more rounded bodywork and smaller engine block. Like in Mario Kart DS and Mario Kart 7, the emblem is located on the hood. In Mario Kart 8 the Standard Kart again tends to have average stats, with above average air speed and traction while having below average acceleration and anti-gravity handling, while in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe the Standard Kart has an increased acceleration, Mini-Turbo, anti-gravity speed, ground handling and anti-gravity handling at the expense of decreased traction and air speed, leading to average values in all stats. Like the Mario Kart Wii and Mario Kart 7 counterparts, it has a two-stroke engine, and its sound is shared with the Pipe Frame, Teddy Buggy, Wild Wiggler, Sneeker, and Splat Buggy.

All CPUs may use this kart body, often pairing it with the Standard tires. However, the CPU-controlled heavyweights who have a large body frame (excluding Link, as well as Pauline in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe) will most likely pair this kart body with the Monster tires instead. In Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Rosalina now uses this body with the Standard tires instead, and Bowser and the Koopalings no longer use this body.

Mario Kart Tour[edit]

While no new kart bearing the name "Standard Kart" appears in Mario Kart Tour, the Pipe Frame fulfills its role as the de facto Standard Kart in this game, being the kart new players start with, being classified as a Normal kart, and having varying color schemes per character, whereas alternate color schemes for other karts are made to be separate karts.

The Mario Kart 8 Standard Kart also returns in Mario Kart Tour, as two separate karts. Mario's color scheme appears as the Red Standard 8 and is classified as a Super kart. Luigi's color scheme is used for a variant of this kart, called the Green Standard 8, which is also classified as a Super kart.

Super Smash Bros. series[edit]

Super Smash Bros. Brawl[edit]

The Mario Kart DS variations of the Standard Kart also appear in Super Smash Bros. Brawl on the Mario Circuit stage. They appear in multiple colors and are driven by Shy Guys. They act as hazards which can KO the players if they are not careful.

Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Super Smash Bros. for Wii U[edit]

The Standard Karts from Mario Kart 8 are seen in the "Comet Observatory" trailer for Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, where they are driven by Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, Bowser, and Donkey Kong around Rainbow Road. Their race is interrupted by the sudden presence of Kirby on his Warp Star and his interaction with Rosalina and her Luma.

In Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS, in the Rainbow Road stage, Shy Guys once again appear racing in Standard Karts, though this time they are the ones used in Mario Kart 7. Mario's, Bowser's, and Shy Guy's Standard Karts from Mario Kart 7 make cameo appearances as trophies. Shy Guys also appear in the Mario Circuit stage in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U with the same role as the other Mario Kart-inspired tracks, with the Standard models being from Mario Kart 8.

Super Smash Bros. for Wii U additionally features Mario Kart DS Standard Karts in the same instances as in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, being driven by Shy Guys on the Mario Circuit (Brawl) stage.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate[edit]

In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Shy Guys drive around in Standard Karts on the Figure-8 Circuit and Mario Circuit once again, using their respective designs. A Standard Kart also appears as a Novice-class support spirit that uses artwork of Koopa Troopa from Mario Kart Wii. When used, the spirit occupies one support slot and equips the fighter with a Boomerang at the start of a battle. The spirit's battle involves four Squirtles faced on the Figure-8 Circuit stage, with Green Shells as the only items that spawn, reflecting the artwork used to represent the spirit.

Paper Mario series[edit]

Paper Mario: Color Splash[edit]

Luigi's Green Standard Kart

In Paper Mario: Color Splash, Luigi can be seen driving his Standard Kart from Mario Kart 8, with the kart being made of paper and cardboard to match the game's art style. Once Mario and Huey collect all of the Big Paint Stars, Luigi appears and uses his kart to transport them to Black Bowser's Castle, with the help of a Rainbow Road created by the paint fountain.

Paper Mario: The Origami King[edit]

In Paper Mario: The Origami King, Luigi is again seen driving a Standard Kart, with the design being the same as the one seen in the previous game. At the start of the game, Mario and Luigi use the kart to reach Toad Town. Towards the end, Luigi arrives at Peach's Castle using a Glider equipped to the kart.

Super Mario Run[edit]

In Super Mario Run, a statue of Mario on his Standard Kart in antigravity, called a Mario Kart Statue, appears as a building during the Mario Kart event. The event also included a Banana Statue and Blooper Statue. Tapping on a Mario Kart Statue creates engine noises. It has since been made available through the Remix 10 mode.

Super Nintendo World[edit]

At Super Nintendo World, Standard Karts from Mario Kart 8 are the basis of the vehicles used in the attraction Mario Kart: Koopa's Challenge.[3]

The Super Mario Bros. Movie[edit]

In The Super Mario Bros. Movie, the vehicle Mario creates in the kart workshop appears to be based on a Standard Kart from Mario Kart Wii. During the encounter with Bowser's army on Rainbow Road, Mario's kart is blown up by the Koopa General firing Bullet Bills from his vehicle.

Other appearances[edit]

In the Animal Crossing series, the player can obtain the Standard Kart as a furniture item. In Animal Crossing: City Folk, it takes its appearance from Mario Kart Wii, while in Animal Crossing: New Leaf, it takes its appearance from Mario Kart 7.

Trivia[edit]

  • The Standard Kart from Mario Kart Wii is the only version of this kart that do not appear in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U, as Shy Guys are seen driving the version of the kart from Mario Kart 7 in the 3DS version and the Mario Kart 8 version (which was already seen in the "Comet Observatory" trailer) in the Wii U version, and the Mario Kart DS version of the karts returns from Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
    • Similarly, the Standard Kart from Mario Kart 7 is the only version of the kart that does not appear in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, due to Rainbow Road being absent, as well as the Standard Kart from Mario Kart Wii appearing as a spirit.
  • In Mario Kart 7, the Standard Kart has a similar engine sound as Mario and Luigi's kart in Mario Kart 64.
  • Tanooki Mario's Standard Kart in Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe has exhaust pipes that are painted to look like his tail, which could be a pun on the term "tailpipe". His Standard Bike also has this.
