The Standard Kart is a kart that appears in Mario Kart DS, Mario Kart Wii, Mario Kart 7Mario Kart 8, and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. It is a basic vehicle, and has a normal Kart design.

In Mario Kart Wii, 3 variants, the Standard Kart S, Standard Kart M, and Standard Kart L all have the same design and statistics. However, they are only open to one weight class each- Light, Medium, and Heavy respectively.

It offers no stats, meaning it gives no effect to the driver's performance. Its stats are almost identical to the PrancerSneekerCat CruiserThe DukeTeddy Buggy, and 300 SL Roadster.

History[]

Predecessor[]

In the first three Mario Kart games, Standard Karts are the Pipe Frame model and is the one and only kart available. In Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, Standard Karts were absent, but the Toad Kart and Red Fire is considerably the standard vehicle for this game.

Mario Kart DS[]

The Standard kart made its first appearance in Mario Kart DS. 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 hood of different color palettes that matches the character's custom color. The decal of the character is shown over the hood.

Note: At start, only respective character can use their Standard Kart, but if player win 8 gold trophies on Mirror Mode, characters can use other Standard Karts

Mario Kart Wii[]

Standard Karts 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. 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. All Standard Karts, along with the other karts, drift outward.

Mario Kart 7[]

Standards reappear in Mario Kart 7 with a similar appearance to the ones in Mario Kart DS. Unlike past games, the Standard Karts here didn't offer any stat changes due to the main stats relying more on the weight class of the character.

Mario Kart 8/Mario Kart 8 Deluxe[]

The Standard kart reappears in Mario Kart 8 with an appearance similar to that of the previous installment. The Standard Kart does not add or subtract from the stats of a driver.

All CPU players 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) will always pair this kart body with the Monster tires.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate[]

In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Standard Kart is a spirit which can be used in battles. The spirit number is #86. In the image that represents the spirit, Koopa Troopa is driving the kart while a Triple Green Shell item is in his inventory. The spirit is a novice and only takes up one slot in your inventory, both very common things. When this spirit is in your party the power it gives you is Boomerang Equipped, which means you start the battle with the Boomerang item equipped.

You can earn this spirit through a Spirit Board battle, or purchasing it from the Vault Shop for 500G (gold).
