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:
- 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.
Overview
In Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed, the vehicle is used by Miles "Tails" Prower as his primary racing vehicle. In gameplay, it can transform into a boat, car or plane when passing through a Transformation Gate, with the mode of the vehicle depending on the terrain beyond the Transformation Gate. It possesses the following statistics:
| Mod | Speed | Accel. | Handling | Boost | All-Star |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | 2/5 | 3/5 | 5/5 | 2/5 | 4/5 |

Console (Mega Drive) | 4/5 | 2/5 | 2/5 | 4/5 | 4/5 |
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 Wheelwind in Sonic Drift.
