Appears in Mario Kart World

The Lobster Roller is an ATV that appears in Mario Kart World. As the name suggests, it is a three-wheeled ATV that is themed around a red lobster. It features the front claws holding the two front tires, its back acting as the seat, three exhaust pipes that lead from under the ATV on each side, and a scuba mask-like structure on the front, which also house the headlights. The emblem is located near the handlebars on each side.

The Lobster Roller is tied with the Rallygator for being the heaviest vehicle in the game, as well as also having the worst handling in the game. However, the Lobster Roller is slightly faster at the cost of having worse acceleration.

This ATV is randomly used by the CPU-controlled Sidestepper, Mario (Happi), Luigi (Happi), Peach (Yukata), Yoshi (Matsuri), and Peach (Sightseeing).
