Editing Koopa Clown Car

The '''Koopa Clown Car''' ({{ja|クッパクラウン|Kuppa Kuraun}}, ''Koopa Clown'') is a flying vehicle used by [[Bowser]]. A smaller version, the '''Junior Clown Car''' ({{ja|クッパJr.クラウン|Kuppa Jr. Kuraun}}, ''Koopa Jr. Clown''), is used by [[Bowser Jr.]]

The Clown Car made several reappearances in later games as one of Bowser's main means of transportation, often during cutscenes. The Koopalings ride the original Koopa Clown Car all together in ''{{s|mariowiki|New Super Mario Bros. 2}}''. ''{{s|mariowiki|Mario Kart 7}}'' introduced the {{s|mariowiki|Koopa Clown}} kart, which resembles the Koopa Clown Car on wheels. ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario Maker}}'' included the Koopa Clown Car as a level element, which can be ridden by Bowser, Bowser Jr., the Koopalings (as of ''Super Mario Maker 2''), other enemies (such as [[Goomba]]s), and even Mario himself.

''{{s|mariowiki|New Super Mario Bros. Wii}}'' introduced [[Bowser Jr.]]'s own, smaller Koopa Clown Car, the {{s|mariowiki|Junior Clown Car}}, although it was not officially given this name until the release of ''{{s|mariowiki|Mario & Luigi: Dream Team}}'' which he uses to battle Mario; he also uses his father's Koopa Clown Car much later in the game. Beginning in ''{{s|mariowiki|New Super Mario Bros. U}}'', the Junior Clown Car has been augmented with boxing gloves attached to mechanical arms.

|desc=Bowser's single-seat, personal airship doesn't exactly handle like a dream, but it wasn't designed to be sporty. The Koopa Clown Car was made to carry Bowser's huge weight, not to mention a logic-defying arsenal of massive bowling balls. In Super Mario World, Mario busted the Koopa Clown Car by pelting it with Mecha Koopas.

The Koopa Clown Car's only appearances are in the ''[[List_of_cutscenes_in_The_Subspace_Emissary#Bowser_Kidnaps_Peach.2FZelda|Bowser Kidnaps Peach/Zelda]]'' cutscene in [[The Subspace Emissary]], in which Bowser, having stolen a trophified [[Peach]]/[[Zelda]], uses it to escape from the heroes. It also appears in the ''{{h2|List of cutscenes in The Subspace Emissary|Falco Appears}}'' cutscene.

[[Bowser Jr.]]'s personal Junior Clown Car is featured in ''Super Smash Bros. 4'' and ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', where he rides the vehicle in battle. The [[Koopalings]], which appear as Bowser Jr.'s [[alternate costume]]s, use a different, mass-produced model that made its first appearance in ''Super Smash Bros. 4''.

Bowser Jr. and the Koopalings take 0.88× of the damage an attack would usually deal if the Junior Clown Car is hit. However, if their body is hit, they take 1.15× of the usual damage instead. In ''Super Smash Bros. 4'', the body hurtbox has priority over the Car hurtbox, causing Bowser Jr. to take more damage than usual on average. In ''Ultimate'', this is reversed, with the Car having more priority and Bowser Jr. taking less damage as a result.

The Junior Clown Car features its boxing gloves from ''New Super Mario Bros. U'', used for multiple attacks. Its [[Clown Kart Dash]] loosely resembles the Koopa Clown from ''Mario Kart 7'', while it can deploy [[Mechakoopa]]s as a reference to ''Super Mario World''. Other than these examples, most of the Junior Clown Car's features are original to ''Smash''.
