Appears in Mario Kart World

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).
