Template:Kart-infobox The Cact-X is a kart in the Mario Kart series. As its name states, the kart body is shaped like a cactus, more specifically a saguaro cactus due to the exhaust pipes being cactus arms. The emblem is located on the hood.

History

Mario Kart 7

The Cact-X first appears in Mario Kart 7 as an unlockable kart body part. It offers a boost in handling and off-road but has reductions in speed and acceleration. It is one of the only five karts to increase off-road boost, with the other four being the Bolt Buggy, Bumble V, Pipe Frame, and Tiny Tug. It has the same engine sound as the Koopa Clown.

CPU Toad can occasionally be seen driving in this body.

Mario Kart Tour

The Cact-X reappears in Mario Kart Tour, where it is classified as a High-End kart. It offers longer-lasting slipstreams and yields more points for performing one. It uses the Sponge tires from Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.

The Cact-X was added to the game in the Wild West Tour and has since appeared in the First Pipe and Second Pipe of each tour. However, it is not currently a part of the Daily Selects set. The table below shows the kart's other availabilities by tour.
