→Reception: karts
|style="text-align:left"|When a racer uses a Lightning, all of their opponents temporarily shrink from a lightning strike, regardless of their position, and drop any items that they have carried. After a few seconds, the other racers gradually return to normal size, starting from the racer in the lowest position up to the racer in first place, who is affected the longest.

==Karts==
There are a total of 36 usable karts, three pertaining to each racer.
At first, each racer begins with two karts, one of which is designed after a traditional go-kart; these all have the word "Standard" in their title and custom initials for the character that it pertains to. The player can unlock a third kart for each character by earning a gold trophy in all four 100cc cups of Nitro GP. In Battle mode, Standard karts are the only ones that can be used for each character.
Other characters' karts gradually become available to other racers. By earning a gold trophy in all four 150cc cups of Nitro GP, each character can use up to seven karts. When all four cups of either Nitro GP or Retro GP in 150cc Mirror (depending on which GP was completed first, as this unlocks R.O.B.), all 36 karts become available for every character.
There exists a 37th kart, Standard SG, which is only usable by Shy Guy in DS Download Play and the only kart available for him.

===Stats===
Like characters, karts have their own set of stats, which themselves are affected by whether a character is light, medium, or heavyweight. Karts have six different stats:
*'''Speed''': Represents a kart's top speed. Higher speeds are usually balanced out with lower Acceleration and Handling.
*'''Acceleration''': How quickly a kart can reach its top speed, such as after it gets by an item. Karts with higher acceleration have faster boosts.
*'''Weight''': Represents the total weight of a kart. Heavier karts can knock lighter opponents aside.
*'''Handling''': How tightly a kart can steer without drifting.
*'''Drift''': How tightly a kart can corner while drifting. Karts with high drifting capabilities usually have low handling.
*'''Items''': The higher the stat, the greater a chance that the racer earns more powerful items during a race. It also affects the longevity of a Bullet Bill, although it also has the negative effect of causing Blooper ink to remaind for a longer period of time. Karts with a higher Items stat start out with more Mushrooms during Time Trials mode (three being the highest possible number).
