The '''Yellow Taxi''' is a [[kart]] that appears in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', classified as a tour-exclusive High-End kart. As what the name suggests, it resembles a {{wp|yellow cab}}. The emblem is located on the hood ornament and exhaust pipes. It uses the [[Slim (tire)|Slim]] tires from ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' (although two screenshots showed it with the [[Pipe Frame]]'s tires instead). [[Trick]]s last longer and yield more points when using this kart. There is a white variant of this kart called the [[Platinum Taxi]], which is also a tour-exclusive High-End kart, but the tour it is exclusive to is the Holiday Tour instead.
The '''Yellow Taxi''' is a High-End [[kart]] in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]''. Introduced in the [[New York Tour]], it is the signature kart of [[Pauline]]. The kart is designed after a 1954 {{wp|Cadillac Eldorado}} with the appearance of a {{wp|yellow cab}}; its overall shape resembles that of the [[Brute]] from ''[[Mario Kart DS]]''. Although it has two tailpipes, the exhaust flames shoot out from below the tailfins, making them the actual exhaust pipes. The emblem is located on the hood ornament and the exhaust pipes. It uses the [[Slim (tire)|Slim]] tires from ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' in-game, although two official screenshots show it with the [[Pipe Frame]]'s tires instead. The Yellow Taxi increases the duration of [[Trick|Jump Boost]] speed boosts and the number of points earned for performing Jump Boosts.

The Yellow Taxi is a High-End kart in Mario Kart Tour. Introduced in the New York Tour, it is the signature kart of Pauline. The kart is designed after a 1954 Cadillac Eldorado with the appearance of a yellow cab; its overall shape resembles that of the Brute from Mario Kart DS. Although it has two tailpipes, the exhaust flames shoot out from below the tailfins, making them the actual exhaust pipes. The emblem is located on the hood ornament and the exhaust pipes. It uses the Slim tires from Mario Kart 7 in-game, although two official screenshots show it with the Pipe Frame's tires instead. The Yellow Taxi increases the duration of Jump Boost speed boosts and the number of points earned for performing Jump Boosts.
