Template:Kart-infobox The Sprinter (also known as the B Dasher Mk. 2 in the PAL regions and Japan) is a medium-sized kart that appears in Mario Kart Wii. Its appearance is based on a modern Formula One car and is the successor of the B Dasher from Mario Kart DS.

Trivia

• This kart is a successor of the B Dasher. It doesn't show in the American English name, but it does in the Japanese and PAL versions, where it was called B Dasher Mk. 2. It directly refers to the original B Dasher and the Mk. 2 shows that this kart is its successor.
  • The assumption that this is an improved version of the B Dasher is supported by the fact that the Sprinter resembles a modern Formula, whereas the B Dasher resembles an older type of Formula used between 1960 and 1980.
  • Both Mario Kart DS and Mario Kart Wii weren't translated to Dutch, but when Mario Kart 7 got a Dutch translation, this kart's American name, the Sprinter, became the Dutch name of the original B Dasher.
  • The Circuit Special is named Sprinter 2.0 in Dutch, further proving the connection between the B Dasher and the Sprinter.
• The name B Dasher is most likely a reference to the controls of the side-scrolling NES and Game Boy games - the player presses and holds the B button to dash.
• The Sprinter used by Diddy Kong, Bowser Jr., or Male Miis don't have a white body, as Diddy's seems to be orange, Bowser Jr. has green, and the male Miis have black. The Female Mii's is white, but in a creamy tone.
• The Sprinter is the only medium-sized vehicle having speed surpassing that of the Flame Flyer, unless Rosalina or Funky Kong use the Flame Flyer based on their speed bonuses.
• The Sprinter is the only vehicle in Mario Kart Wii with a speed stat higher than 60 that is used as a normal Time Trial staff ghost. It is used by Luigi on the Luigi Circuit course.
