The '''Blue Falcon''' is a small [[kart]] that first appears in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]''. In ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'', it appears as a kart part in the first downloadable content pack. It is modeled after the actual [[Blue Falcon]] vehicle used by [[Captain Falcon]] in the [[f-zerowiki:F-Zero (series)|''F-Zero'' series]]. The Blue Falcon in ''Mario Kart Wii'' is based on its more modern design from ''[[f-zerowiki:F-Zero X|F-Zero X]]'' on the N64, while the one in ''Mario Kart 8'' is based on its design from the original SNES ''[[f-zerowiki:F-Zero|F-Zero]]''. The coloring of [[Mario]] & [[Baby Mario]]'s kart is the same as the real Blue Falcon the kart is based on. The kart bears less resemblance to vehicle it is based on in ''Mario Kart Wii'', having three wheels and a battery is located at the bottom. It depiction in ''Mario Kart 8''' is more accurate, complete with flames instead of exhaust, which changes color depending on the mini turbo.
 
The Blue Falcon can be unlocked in ''Mario Kart Wii'' by winning the [[Lightning Cup]] in [[Mirror Mode]]. It does not have a [[bike]] counterpart for the small size class, being more similar to the medium bike [[Sneakster]] and the heavy bike [[Spear]].

The Blue Falcon has great speed; it is the fastest small vehicle in the game. In fact, its speed is equivalent to the [[Flame Runner]]'s. It is also the fastest vehicle without a counterpart in the game. 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.

==Trivia==
{{trivia}}
*The Blue Falcon is powered by battery, similarly to the [[Cheep Charger]]. The battery is located at the bottom of the kart, and is seen when the Blue Falcon is flipped.
*Though it is called the Blue Falcon, Baby Mario, Toad, and the Male [[Mii]] are the only characters who actually have it colored blue. Baby Mario's has the true color scheme as the machine itself from the ''F-Zero'' games, while Toad's and the Male Mii's color variants are unique to the game.
*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. This is unusual, as most small vehicles are capable of powerful Mini-Turbos.
*This is the only vehicle in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'' to have the same name in all languages.
*In ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'', the Blue Falcon emit flames rather than the usual exhaust smoke from the other vehicle bodies in the game; the flames changes color depending on the strength of its mini turbo: blue for weak mini turbo and yellow for strong mini turbo.
