The '''Mach 8''' is a [[kart]] from the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series. It resembles both a jet with a turbine-shaped grille in the front and the Formula One cars of the 1950s, having a color combination reminiscent of the blue and yellow OSCA Tipo G 4500 with a more intense blue color while sporting a yellow racing stripe and tailfin. Probably because of that, it is represented in the artworks of ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' with [[Slim (tire)|Slim tires]]. The emblem is located on the hood and either side of the tailfin.

The Mach 8 debuts in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' as a kart body. It is a midweight component that offers good speed, but has below average acceleration and poor traction. The front and back of the body illuminate when the body goes into [[anti-gravity]] mode. The kart itself shares the same exact stats with the [[Sports Coupe]], [[Circuit Special]], [[Gold Standard]], [[B Dasher]], and [[P-Wing (kart)|P-Wing]]. The engine is supercharged and resembles a Flat-12 from a {{wp|Ferrari Testarossa}}. it can also be heard when the kart is moving.

CPU-controlled [[Luigi]] may occasionally use this vehicle body, often paired with the [[Slim (tire)|Slim tires]]. In fact, Luigi's main artwork also depicts him driving the Mach 8. In ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', CPU Yoshi is also seen occasionally using this body with the [[Slim (tire)|Slim tires]]. [[Link|Champion's Tunic Link]] uses this vehicle as well but is equipped with the [[Triforce Tires]] instead.

While the Mach 8 is a starting vehicle body in ''Mario Kart 8'', in ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'' it must be unlocked by collecting [[coin]]s. Its stats have also changed to slightly boosting weight and traction, while slightly lowering acceleration and handling. It shares stats with only the [[Sports Coupe]] and [[Inkstriker]].

*Like the [[Blue Seven]], the Mach 8's name could be a reference to the game it originates from, ''Mario Kart 8''. It could also be a reference to the {{wp|Mach Five}} from ''{{wp|Speed Racer}}'', since both vehicles are made for racing.
