The Wild Wing is a Medium Kart in Mario Kart Wii. It is one of the three starter karts in the Medium class along with the Standard Kart M and the Classic Dragster (Nostalgia 1). It is Mario's signature vehicle in this game, with high Speed, Weight, Drift and Mini-Turbo. Its Bike counterpart is the Mach Bike.

It also appears in Mario Kart Tour.

Description

The Wild Wing takes the look of a round, sporty tuner car with an aerodynamic front, looking more like a McLaren F1 LM, which features sharp-looking headlights, which could be based on an Oldsmobile Intrigue. The front of the body bears a wide stripe followed by a narrow stripe in the middle, as well as having fenders on the bottom of the kart and under the wheels. In the cockpit is a sporty and comfortable seat, and behind it is a wide spoiler with Mario-style wings as its tips. It has a rear that bears resemblance to a Toyota Supra Mark IV, with an exhaust system consisting of two dual exhausts.

In Mario Kart Wii, it has tires with rims with a Star aesthetic. In Mario Kart Tour, they were replaced with what appears to be the Standard tires from Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.

Appearances

Mario Kart Wii

The Wild Wing is a kart for Medium racers. As its aerodynamic body might imply, the Wild Wing features great Speed, Drift and Mini-Turbo. It's also the heaviest medium vehicle in the game. However, it has low Handling and Off-Road, as well as Acceleration, which is tied with the Jetsetter (Aero Glider) for the third worst behind the Flame Flyer and the Flame Runner (Bowser Bike).

Excluding Acceleration, it shares its Weight with the Phantom, its Off-Road and Handling with the Honeycoupe (Dragonetti) and the Blue Falcon, Its Off-Road with the Sneakster (Nitrocycle), its Drift with the Cheep Charger and the Shooting Star (Twinkle Star), with the latter shares its Mini-Turbo as well, a stat that the Booster Seat (Baby Booster) also shares.

The Wild Wing moves its wings when it is boosted, with nitrous coming from its exhaust pipes.

• When Mario or Luigi ride the Wild Wing, it can surpass the weight of all large bikes except for the Wario Bike, and the Jetsetter, a large kart.
  • Also, if Daisy rides the Wild Wing, its top speed will exceed the Flame Runner's default top speed by one point.
• The Wild Wing, Mini Beast, and the Flame Flyer all share the same engine-sound, but the tone changes in size classes. (Flame Flyer= lower engine, Wild Wing= average engine, Mini Beast= higher engine)
• Daisy in the Wild Wing is the most used Kart-Combination for medium-weights.
• The P-Wing from Mario Kart 8 is the spiritual successor to the Wild Wing.
