Machine Name Description Modes Available In
File:WarpstarKAR.JPG Warp Star The Warpstar is the most balanced machine in Kirby Air Ride. It is the default machine in Air Ride mode before the player unlocks anything. Just as with balanced machines, this machine has no major flaws or advantages. Air Ride, City Trial
File:CompactStarKAR.jpg Compact Star The Compact Star is a star that is exclusive to City Trial and all of its modes. The Compact Star mainly has all around stats, but trades speed for control. It also has somewhat low HP compared to most other machines. This is also the default machine if players play the main game in City Trial. City Trial
File:TurboStarKAR.JPG Turbo Star The Turbo Star has great control, but handling that takes time to get used to. It also does not have great battling capabilities such as vitality and offense. This unusual machine also charges up very slowly when not in motion, but charges up quickly when stopping the motion. Air Ride, City Trial
File:FormulastarKAR.JPG Formula Star The Formula Star is a vehicle with very high top speed, but poor handling and acceleration, which makes it a likely candidate for Drag Races only. It also have poor gliding, poor charging, and poor battling capabilities. Air Ride, City Trial
File:SlickKAR.JPG Slick Star The Slick Star is a speedy machine with above-average charging. The major drawback of the Slick Star is its slippery handling, which can take some time to get used to for the player. All other stats are around average. Air Ride, City Trial
File:SwervestarKAR.JPG Swerve Star This machine cannot turn while moving, but can turn while charging or gliding, making it a unique machine. It also has excellent acceleration, which boosts to its top speed instantly. It is about average everywhere else, except for gliding, which is below average. Air Ride, City Trial
File:WagonstarKAR.JPG Wagon Star The Wagon Star cannot charge, stopping the vehicle merely halts the vehicle in a spot without the gauge meter filling. To pay up for the lack of that ability, it has mostly above average stats and has excellent HP. Air Ride, City Trial
File:BulkStarKAR.JPG Bulk Star This machine uses the charge energy as fuel; when the charge gauge is empty, the vehicle is unable to move on its own. The Bulk Star is very heavy, with great battling capabilities and can even go at very high top speeds if patched properly in City Trial. Air Ride, City Trial
Shadow Star The Shadow Star has excellent offensive, acceleration, and gliding stats. However, it has low defenses, especially HP, that other machines that can easily take it down. Air Ride, City Trial
File:WingStarKAR.JPG Winged Star The Winged Star is a fairly slow machine, but has a superb gliding ability. However, it performs poorly when it comes to battling other machines and is very light. All other stats all around average. Air Ride, City Trial
File:RocketStarKAR.JPG Rocket Star The Rocket Star has very poor top speed, but has a massive charge boost that sends it propelling at very high speeds. However, it does not have fast charging, which is another drawback. All other stats are approximately average. Air Ride, City Trial
File:JetstarKAR.JPG Jet Star The Jet Star is an average machine and well-rounded everywhere. However, it has a special gliding ability; whenever it hits the air, a burst of speed sends it propelling and when it makes a good landing, another burst of speed follows. Air Ride, City Trial
File:WheelieBikeKAR.JPG Wheelie Bike The Wheelie Bike always hits the ground with a single wheel, unlike the other machines based on stars. It has average stats mostly everywhere, but its major drawback is its control and its gliding. Due to it being on the ground, it automatically hits boosts without stopping. It also has high top speeds. Air Ride, City Trial
File:WheelieScooterKAR.JPG Wheelie Scooter This machine has very low top speeds, but very high handling, charging, and acceleration stats. It also gains speed when it drives off ramps, drives over boosts, or drives over rails. However, it has low battling capabilities. Air Ride, City Trial
File:RexWheelieKAR.JPG Rex Wheelie The Rex Wheelie has handling that takes time to get used to, but due to its large size and weight, it has superb battling capabilities. It does not have great gliding or acceleration either, but it has fairly high top speeds. Air Ride, City Trial
