The Junkyard Hog is an ATV that appears in Mario Kart World. As its name implies, it appears to be assembled out of various disparate parts, featuring a motorbike-esque front and brown and black tracks on the rear. It is colored sea-green with orange accents, a yellow seat, and a large headlight with the racer's emblem right under it. In the back there is a spare tire and a yellow bag with a black Swoop logo on it.
This ATV is randomly used by the CPU-controlled Cow, Luigi (Farmer), Peach (Farmer), Bowser Jr. (Explorer), Toad (Explorer), Toadette (Explorer), Baby Peach (Explorer), Baby Rosalina (Explorer), Toad (Burger Bud), and Rosalina (Touring).
