The Cheep Charger is an unlockable small-sized kart that appears in Mario Kart Wii. It is a small kart with the shape of a Cheep-Cheep with wheels and fin-like wings behind the cab. The characters' emblem appear on the sides of the vehicle. Its bike counterpart is the Quacker. Toad in his Cheep Charger is also seen in a Mario Kart Wii downloadable wallpaper.
The Cheep Charger is unlocked when the player attains at least one star rank for all 50cc Retro Grand Prix Cups or wins 1,800 races.
The Cheep Charger 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 and it is the lightest kart in the game (its weight is tied with the Bullet Bike and Magikruiser).

Trivia
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.
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.
This is the only small vehicle that has a color scheme with all of the traditional colors from the rainbow.
Dry Bones is the only driver whose Cheep Charger's lips are colored differently than all others drivers that use pink for the lips. This is due to Dry Bones having an achromatic color scheme.
