The '''Blue Falcon''' is a
==''Mario Kart Wii''==
In ''Mario Kart Wii'', the Blue Falcon appears as a small kart 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.
Its bike counterpart is the [[Jet Bubble]].
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 and [[Flame Runner]]'s default speed by one point.

The Blue Falcon returns in ''Mario Kart 8'' as one of the vehicles included in [[The Legend of Zelda x Mario Kart 8|''The Legend of Zelda'' × ''Mario Kart 8'']] downloadable content pack, as well as one of the three retro vehicle bodies to return in the game along with the [[B Dasher]] and [[Pipe Frame]]. The model is redesigned to look like the original Blue Falcon from ''F-Zero'' for the [[SNES]], complete with flames coming out from the
In terms of its stats, the Blue Falcon's stat distribution is similar to that of the [[Soda Jet]] from ''[[Mario Kart 7]]''; it gives a high boost in speed and acceleration as well as an average [[Mini-Turbo]], at the cost of some weight and traction. Also, the Blue Falcon's stats are shared with the [[Streetle]], which is available in the [[Animal Crossing x Mario Kart 8|''Animal Crossing'' × ''Mario Kart 8'']] DLC pack
It is one of the several vehicles in ''Mario Kart 8'' to have a supercharged engine, together with [[Mach 8]], [[Sports Coupe]], [[Circuit Special]], [[B Dasher]], [[Badwagon]], [[P-Wing (kart)|P-Wing]], [[
A [[Stamp]] of the Blue Falcon became available in Version 4.0 of ''Mario Kart 8'', which was released on April 23, 2015.
In ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', it can be unlocked randomly by collecting [[coin]]s and now shares stats with the [[Splat Buggy]]. It provides a higher boost to traction, anti-gravity handling, and water handling, while reducing water speed, air speed, acceleration, weight, ground handling, and air handling.
