Bolt Buggy

The Bolt Buggy is a default kart body part that appears in Mario Kart 7. The kart resembles the Pipe Frame with yellow chassis and a pair of headlights in the front, as well as a more powerful engine sound. It boosts speed, weight, and off-road, but its acceleration and handling are hindered during the process. It is one of the only five karts to increase off-road boost, with the other four being the Bumble V, Cact-X, Pipe Frame, and Tiny Tug. Also, the Bolt Buggy is tied with the B Dasher and Blue Seven for the lowest acceleration of all kart bodies. The engine sound is actually a lower pitched version of several karts from Mario Kart DS, such as the Poltergust 4000, ROB-LGS and Zipper. It also sounds similar to the Koopa King from Mario Kart: Double Dash!! It has the lowest calculated stat total of all Kart bodies.

CPU-controlled Bowser, Donkey Kong and Rosalina can occasionally be seen driving in this body.

The Varmint from Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe has a similar design to this vehicle.
