Super Mario Drive is an officially licensed battery car made by Banpresto in 1993.[citation needed] Two versions were released: a Mario version and a Yoshi version.
Details[edit]
Mario version[edit]
The driver rides in a car with a Mario statue behind the seat. Before the car moves, the card dispenser would dispense a card. The driver then can drive around for a limited amount of time while a sped-up version of the title theme from Super Mario World plays. While the car is being driven, two buttons can be pressed. One makes Mario speak, and another honks the horn.[1] The car is orange with black outlines and wheels, with Mario's emblem at the front of the car.[2]
Yoshi version[edit]
The driver rides on Yoshi with a Goomba and some mushrooms beside him and a cracked Yoshi egg behind him. Just like with the Mario version, a sped-up version of the title theme from Super Mario World plays as the driver drives the car. Two buttons can be pressed while driving. One makes Yoshi speak, and another honks a horn.[3]
