Daytripper

The Daytripper (known as the Royal Racer throughout PAL regions) is a medium-sized kart found in Mario Kart Wii. The vehicle resembles an old-fashioned and decorated, horse-drawn coach, with its rear tires larger than the front. Its name is a reference to the Beatles' song "Day Tripper", and the Spanish name of "Sunday Driver" references the lyrics "She was a daytripper, Sunday driver yeah".

The Daytripper can be unlocked by winning the 150cc Leaf Cup. Its bike counterpart is the Sugarscoot, which unlike the Daytripper, is available from the beginning of the game. This is the only pair of counterparts in which one vehicle is a starter, while the other is an unlockable. The Daytripper, along with the Cheep Charger, the Classic Dragster, the Dolphin Dasher and the Honeycoupe, has a color scheme for each character. It is also the only medium kart to use Peach's version for the Mario Kart Channel, Time Trial records, and on the unlocking screen. All other medium vehicles use Mario's versions for these appearances.

Princess Peach's Daytripper makes a cameo appearance as a trophy in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U.

Stats
The Daytripper features great handling along with decent weight, acceleration, off-road, and Mini-Turbo. However, its speed and drifting are rather low. It shares the same weight as the Standard Kart M. However, it is the slowest medium kart in the game.

Trivia

 * The Female Mii is the only driver to use white as the primary body color for the Daytripper, while all other characters use white as the secondary body color. However, this is due to that a medium-sized Female Mii's kart color scheme is the inverse of Peach's color scheme for all karts, except for the Super Blooper and Sprinter.
 * If Dry Bowser uses the Offroader, its off-road will surpass the Daytripper by one point.
