Car Yoshi, generically referred to as the Car[1][2] or the Vehicle[3] in Yoshi's Island-related materials, is a form Yoshis can assume in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island and Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3 by touching a morph bubble containing its picture.

History

Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island / Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3

Car Yoshi moves faster than a regular Yoshi and is smaller, enabling it to fit through small openings. Pressing B Button will stretch its wheels for a short time, making it possible to avoid enemies or reach higher platforms. When repeatedly done near a wall, this also enables the player to "climb" up the wall. If hit by an enemy, Car Yoshi will be briefly unable to move.

In Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, a morph bubble for this form appears only in the stage Lakitu's Wall. In the remake, Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3, this form appears in the Secret Stage Go! Go! Morphing!.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Car Yoshi appears as a sticker. In the Subspace Emissary, it can only be used on Yoshi to boost his tail attack power by 7 points.

The Car in the Super Mario-Kun

Trivia

An early version of the Vehicle, from Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island.
The early eye shading
  • Despite the artwork of the Car being light blue, the Light Blue Yoshi never gets an opportunity to morph in a Car.
  • Unused tiles depict the Vehicle form with more heavily-shaded eyes than the final ones, which lack shading on the eyes entirely (except when the wheels are outstretched).
