'''Cars''' are one of three ridable vehicles in ''[[Diddy Kong Racing]]'' and ''[[Diddy Kong Racing DS]]'', along with [[hovercraft]]s and [[plane]]s. Cars are land vehicles, and they are used for racetracks set on the road.


In the original version, every character's vehicle has their own unique color, including Cars. In ''Diddy Kong Racing DS'', every character's vehicles are yellow by default. The player can access [[Taj's Wishes Menu]] to purchase upgrades for a Car's speed, handling, and acceleration. They can also customize a Car's paint color from a slider or put an emblem on it, much like in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]''.
In the original version, every character's vehicle has their own unique color, including cars, though each one's tires are always red. In ''Diddy Kong Racing DS'', every character's vehicles are yellow by default. The player can access [[Diddy Kong Racing DS#Taj's Wishes Menu|Taj's Wishes Menu]] to purchase upgrades for a car's speed, handling, and acceleration. They can also customize a car's paint color from a slider or put an emblem on it, much like in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]''. While the cars are modeled in-game in the original ''Diddy Kong Racing'', their wheels are prerendered sprites set to always face the camera (a rendering technique called "billboarding"). The vehicle colors in the original version are as follows:


==Level availability==
{{columns|count=2|
Cars are usable in every level except Hot Top Volcano, Whale Bay, Pirate Lagoon, and Boulder Canyon, where the player must use a Hovercraft or Plane instead. Cars are usable in Everfrost Peak in the original [[Nintendo 64]] version, but since the course's icy pond is thawed in the DS release, Cars cannot be used in the stage. They are most often the default vehicle for each course that they are ridable in.
*[[Diddy Kong]] - Blue
*[[Pipsy]] - Pink
*[[Bumper (character)|Bumper]] - Yellow
*[[Tiptup]] - Sky blue
*[[Timber]] - Green
*[[Banjo]] - Spring green
*[[Conker]] - White
*[[Krunch]] - Orange
*[[Drumstick (character)|Drumstick]] - Red
*[[T.T.]] - Silver
}}


The player can select a course's available vehicles to race in from either the "Tracks" menu or by completing a [[Silver Coin]] Challenge (or [[Balloon Touch Challenge]] in the DS remake).
