Cact-X

The Cact-X is a kart in the Mario Kart series. As its name states, the kart body is shaped like a cactus, more specifically a saguaro cactus due to the exhaust pipes being cactus arms.

Mario Kart Tour
The Cact-X reappears in Mario Kart Tour, where it is classified as a High-End kart. It increases the length of Slipstream boosts and the amount of points earned for performing Slipstreams. It uses the Sponge tires from Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. An icy-blue variant named the Cact-Ice was introduced in the Snow Tour, a red variant named the Cact-R was introduced in the Toad vs. Toadette Tour, and a black variant named the Cact-B was introduced in the 2022 Bowser Tour. All three variants are classified as High-End karts.

The Cact-X was added to the game in the Wild West Tour and has since appeared in the First Pipe and Second Pipe of every tour. However, it is not currently a part of the Daily Selects set. The table below shows the kart's other availabilities by tour.
