Tails' vehicle is a vehicle that appears in Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed. It is a vehicle used by Miles "Tails" Prower, replacing the Tornado Racer from Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing.

Description

Tails' vehicle has three distinct appearances that depend on its mode:

• 

  Amy, Blaze and Tails riding in the upgraded vehicle, from Sonic the Hedgehog #78.

  Car mode: Tails' vehicle has an open, one-seated Formula One-style design, with a prominent spoiler attached to the rear, in addition to a turbine-like engine attached to each side. Its overall appearance evokes the Lotus Seven, Tails' favorite car.
• Plane mode: The chassis of the vehicle remains the same shape, but its wheels retract into the body and its turbines extend into short T-shaped wings reminiscent of those on the Tornado Racer.
• Boat mode: The vehicle resembles a speed boat similar to the Speed Star's boat form. Its spoiler moves to the underside of the vehicle to act as a hydrofoil.

In all of the vehicle's forms, the spoiler and turbines emit a light blue light from behind imitating the color of Tails' eyes. Currently it has been upgraded to have and additional two seats in total.

In Sonic the Hedgehog #78, Tails would use the Tornado until Blaze fear of heights was brought to mind and instead Tails would drive Amy and Blaze through various locations on Earth such as Barricade Town, Glass Hill, and by using the boat form to travel to Turtleshell Island.

Trivia

• The Whirlwind Sport from the subsequent Sonic racing game, Team Sonic Racing, takes many design elements from Tails' vehicle in Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed, with both appearing to draw inspiration from the MTP-01 Whirlwind in Sonic Drift.
