Template:Kart-infobox The Dolphin Dasher is an unlockable medium-sized bike in the game Mario Kart Wii. It is unlocked by winning the Star Cup in Mirror Mode. As the name suggests, it looks like a dolphin seen in Super Mario World. The character's emblem is shown on the bike's belly.

Its kart counterpart is the Super Blooper kart, which is slightly faster and lighter. It makes the Dolphin Dasher the only bike heavier than its kart counterpart.

Statistics

Template:Mkwiistat

The Dolphin Dasher has a great off-road stat. Unlike the Magikruiser, it loses a little more speed when going off-road. Compared to the Zip Zip, the Dolphin Dasher has more speed and weight, but has less acceleration, handling, drift, off-road, and mini-turbo. It is also noted for being the heaviest medium bike in the game, along with having the weakest drifting among all the inside drifting bikes.

Trivia

  • When Mario rides his Dolphin Dasher, it looks like the original dolphin from Super Mario World.
  • This is one of the vehicles, along with the Classic Dragster, Cheep Charger, and the Honeycoupe, that has a color scheme based on the traditional colors from the rainbow.
  • The tires on this bike feature a "wavy" design also found on the Cheep Charger and Super Blooper. These karts are all based on aquatic Mario series enemies.
