The '''Wild Wing''' is a medium-sized [[kart]] that appears in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]''. It resembles a [[Wikipedia:Tuner (car)|tuner]] with an aerodynamic front, an automotive wing featuring feathery wings on the sides of the bar (hence the English name being a pun on automotive wings and biological wings), two pairs of dual exhaust pipes below the rear fender, and 5-spoke alloy wheels on the tires. The Wild Wing shows a two-stripe pattern running along the hood, and the emblem of the character is located on the sides of the kart. Its [[bike]] counterpart is the [[Mach Bike]]. The Wild Wing along with the [[Mini Beast]] and [[Flame Flyer]] all share the same engine sound, but the pitch varies with weight class. The Wild Wing moves its wings when it boosts. It has the sound of a four-cylinder motorcycle, and this sound is later recycled for the [[B Dasher]] and [[Bruiser]] in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]''.

The Wild Wing returns in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', where it is classified as a High-End kart. Boosting from [[Dash Panel]]s lasts longer and yields more points when using this kart. It uses the [[Standard (tire)|Standard]] tires. However, unlike its ''Mario Kart Wii'' appearance, it only has [[Mario]]'s coloration no matter which driver is using it. Its wings also no longer move. The game introduces a variation with a Union Jack color scheme called the [[Swift Jack]], which is also classified as a High-End kart.
==History==
===''Mario Kart Wii''===
As its aerodynamic body might imply, the Wild Wing features great speed, drift and [[Mini-Turbo]]: it is the second fastest medium vehicle in the game. It is also the heaviest medium-sized vehicle in the game, making it nearly impossible to bounce away unless using large karts. However, its handling, acceleration and off-road stats are low, and it has the weakest acceleration of the medium vehicles.


==Statistics==
The Wild Wing has the same off-road and handling stats as the [[Honeycoupe]]. Its off-road is tied with the [[Sneakster]]. Its drift is tied with the [[Shooting Star (bike)|Shooting Star]]. It's mini-turbo is also tied with the [[Shooting Star (bike)|Shooting Star]] and [[Booster Seat]]. It has the same acceleration stat as the [[Jetsetter]] and the same weight stat as the [[Phantom (bike)|Phantom]].
