Appears in Mario Kart Tour

The Sakura Hop Rod is a High-End kart in Mario Kart Tour. It was introduced in the Samurai Tour. The kart is a pink variant of the Jade Hop Rod with purple stripes, magenta lips, a blue underside and katana hilts, a gold and pink-striped seat, and blue striped exhaust pipes. Unlike the Jade Hop Rod and akin to the Dark Hop Rod, it uses a purple and pink version of the Pipe Frame's tires. Also unlike the Jade Hop Rod, this kart increases the duration of Rocket Start boosts and the number of bonus points awarded for performing a Rocket Start.

Availability

The Sakura Hop Rod only appeared in select pipes and is currently not available in the Daily Selects.
