The Cheep Charger debuts in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'' as a small Acceleration-type kart. It has the best acceleration among all karts in the game. It also has decent handling, drifting, and [[Mini-Turbo]] stats. However, the vehicle's top speed is fairly low (tied with the [[Daytripper]]) and it is the lightest kart in the game (its weight being tied with the [[Bullet Bike]] and [[Magikruiser]]).

However, the vehicle's top speed is fairly low (tied with the [[Daytripper]]) and it is the lightest kart in the game (its weight being tied with the [[Bullet Bike]] and [[Magikruiser]]). As such, it jumps at the highest angle out of any kart in the game.


The Cheep Charger is unlocked when the player attains at least one star rank for all 50cc Retro Grand Prix Cups or plays 1,800 races. The Cheep Charger has the same off-road stat as the [[Wario Bike]], and its drift performance is tied with the [[Wild Wing]] and the [[Shooting Star (bike)|Shooting Star]]. If the Cheep Charger is ridden by [[Toadette]], it can drift off-road. The Cheep Charger was the only unlockable kart revealed before the release of ''Mario Kart Wii''. [[Toad]] and [[Baby Peach]] were both seen driving it.

[[Toad]] and [[Baby Peach]] were both seen driving it.


When ridden by [[Baby Mario]], the kart resembles the original Cheep Cheep. When ridden by [[Koopa Troopa]], it resembles a [[Deep Cheep]] and when ridden by a Female Mii, it resembles an [[Eep Cheep]], although it is more vague. [[Dry Bones]] is the only driver whose Cheep Charger's lips are colored differently than all the drivers that use pink for the lips, due to Dry Bones having an achromatic color scheme. The Cheep Charger's [[bike]] counterpart is the [[Quacker]], while its medium counterpart is the [[Classic Dragster]]. The Cheep Charger and the Quacker also share the apparent children’s toy-design theme and are based on a type of animal which swims. The Cheep Charger is battery-powered, and just like the [[Blue Falcon]], the battery is located under the kart and can only be seen when the vehicle is flipped. The artwork featuring Toad in his Cheep Charger is seen in a ''Mario Kart Wii'' downloadable wallpaper.

History[edit]

Mario Kart series[edit]

Mario Kart Wii[edit]

The Cheep Charger debuts in Mario Kart Wii as a small Acceleration-type kart. It has the best acceleration among all karts in the game. It also has decent handling, drifting, and Mini-Turbo stats. However, the vehicle's top speed is fairly low (tied with the Daytripper) and it is the lightest kart in the game (its weight being tied with the Bullet Bike and Magikruiser). As such, it jumps at the highest angle out of any kart in the game.

The Cheep Charger is unlocked when the player attains at least one star rank for all 50cc Retro Grand Prix Cups or plays 1,800 races. The Cheep Charger has the same off-road stat as the Wario Bike, and its drift performance is tied with the Wild Wing and the Shooting Star. If the Cheep Charger is ridden by Toadette, it can drift off-road. The Cheep Charger was the only unlockable kart revealed before the release of Mario Kart Wii. Toad and Baby Peach were both seen driving it.

When ridden by Baby Mario, the kart resembles the original Cheep Cheep. When ridden by Koopa Troopa, it resembles a Deep Cheep and when ridden by a Female Mii, it resembles an Eep Cheep, although it is more vague. Dry Bones is the only driver whose Cheep Charger's lips are colored differently than all the drivers that use pink for the lips, due to Dry Bones having an achromatic color scheme. The Cheep Charger's bike counterpart is the Quacker, while its medium counterpart is the Classic Dragster. The Cheep Charger and the Quacker also share the apparent children’s toy-design theme and are based on a type of animal which swims. The Cheep Charger is battery-powered, and just like the Blue Falcon, the battery is located under the kart and can only be seen when the vehicle is flipped. The artwork featuring Toad in his Cheep Charger is seen in a Mario Kart Wii downloadable wallpaper.

If Baby Luigi or Baby Daisy ride the Cheep Charger, its speed will tie with the Offroader's default speed.
