The Blue Falcon appears as a small Speed-type kart with heavyweight qualities that can be unlocked by winning the [[Lightning Cup]] in [[Mirror Mode]], or by playing 4,200 races. It has great speed; it is the fastest small vehicle in the game. In fact, its speed is equivalent to the [[Flame Runner]]'s. However, the vehicle is rather light and has average drifting and acceleration, but its other stats are rather low. In fact, the Blue Falcon is the only small vehicle to have a Mini-Turbo lower than thirty, unless driven by Baby Daisy, Koopa Troopa, Dry Bones, or the Mii based on their Mini-Turbo bonuses. Its weight is tied with the Standard Kart S. Its acceleration is tied with the [[Super Blooper (kart)|Super Blooper]]. The Blue Falcon's off-road is rather poor; it has the worst off-road performance, handling, and Mini-Turbo out of all small vehicles. Its off-road is tied with the [[Honeycoupe]], the [[Wild Wing]], and the [[Sneakster]]. The Blue Falcon also has the lowest stat total out of any small vehicle in the game, having 249 stat points. Its medium and large counterparts are the [[B Dasher Mk. 2|Sprinter]] and the [[Jetsetter]], respectively.
The Blue Falcon is an unlockable small vehicle, unlocked by winning the [[Lightning Cup]] in [[Mirror Mode]] or by playing 4,200 races. The kart emphasizes top speed and trades off other stats, similar to its medium and large counterparts (the [[B Dasher Mk. 2|Sprinter]] and [[Jetsetter]] respectively), but not as polarizing. It is the fastest small vehicle in the game, with its top speed being equivalent to the [[Flame Runner]]'s. However, the vehicle is rather light and has average drifting and acceleration, but its other stats are rather low. In fact, the Blue Falcon is the only small vehicle to have a Mini-Turbo lower than thirty, unless driven by Baby Daisy, Koopa Troopa, Dry Bones, or the Mii based on their Mini-Turbo bonuses.

The Blue Falcon's off-road is rather poor; it has the worst off-road performance, handling, and Mini-Turbo out of all small vehicles. The Blue Falcon also has the lowest stat total out of any small vehicle in the game, having 249 stat points.


Its [[bike]] counterpart is the [[Jet Bubble]].
The Blue Falcon is one of the six vehicles in Mario Kart Wii to not have a counterpart for its size class, with the other five vehicles being the [[Classic Dragster]], [[Jet Bubble]], [[Piranha Prowler]], [[Phantom (bike)|Phantom]], and [[Zip Zip]].


Although it is called the Blue Falcon, most characters driving this vehicle have non-blue color schemes; for example, [[Baby Luigi]] has a green Blue Falcon. If Baby Luigi or [[Baby Daisy]] ride the Blue Falcon, it can surpass the Sprinter's, [[Flame Flyer]] and Sneakster's, and [[Flame Runner]]'s default speed by one point, three points, and five points respectively.
