Starting in Mario Kart 8 on the Wii U, and returning in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe on the Switch, Nintendo introduced a new 200cc speed class to the Mario Kart franchise. Unlike the more moderate increases between 50cc, 100cc, and 150cc speed classes, 200cc provides a significant, noticeable boost in speed. The increase is so substantial that it even changes the way players approach the game.
