Appears in Mario Kart Tour

The Dasher II is a Super kart in Mario Kart Tour. Introduced in the Mario Bros. Tour, it is the signature kart of Luigi and Luigi (Classic). The kart is a variant of the Cucumber with a greater resemblance to Luigi's variation of the Classic Dragster, having a grayish-white body, a green racing stripe down the middle, a more solid brown leather seat, and blue-silver exhaust pipes. It uses green-rimmed versions of the Off-Road tires from Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, which are used by the Cucumber. Its name comes from a kind of cucumber variety known as the Dasher II, fitting with the Cucumber’s name. It is one of two variations of a vehicle that was added into the game before the original kart, the other being the Gilded Prancer. Unlike the Cucumber, this kart increases the duration of Dash Panel speed boosts as well as the number of points resulted from using Dash Panels.

The vehicle was exclusively obtainable during the Mario Bros. Tour and was in the second week's spotlight lineup alongside Luigi and Luigi (Classic). It is the second Super kart that holds this distinction, the first and third being the Super 1 and the Tea Coupe, respectively.

  • Mario Kart Tour Twitter: With its streamlined body and giant mufflers, the Dasher II kart is a mix of old and new design influences. It may sport a classic look, but under the hood it's a modern-day kart that can race with the best of them.[1]
