These vehicle parts are part of the base content of ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', in which they each require [[coin]]s to be unlocked. The pack was created as part of a cross-promotion between [[Nintendo]] and {{wp|Mercedes-Benz}} for ''Mario Kart 8'' and the [[GLA]] in Japan.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RnREMqwAVu4 ''Mario Kart 8'' / GLA commercials]</ref>
