Template:Kart-infobox The Tiny Tug is a kart part that players can unlock in Mario Kart 7. This kart part is shaped like a boat, with a large exhaust on the back. The emblem is located on the back and sides of the kart. It offers a weight boost, and an off-road boost; however, it hinders speed. It is one of the only five karts to increase the off-road stat, with the other four being the Bolt Buggy, Bumble V, Cact-X, and Pipe Frame.

The Tiny Tug has one of the lowest speed stats in the game (being tied with the Birthday Girl and Cloud 9), but it has the best sea speed (tied with the Egg 1) and sea handling (tied with the Cloud 9) of all kart bodies. Like the Barrel Train, it appears to have a diesel engine and its sound is derived from an actual tugboat.

CPU Peach, Daisy and Toad can occasionally be seen driving in this kart body.

This and the Cact-X are the only karts that originated in Mario Kart 7 to not appear in Mario Kart Tour.
