The Shopping Cart is a Vehicle in Fortnite: Battle Royale. It was introduced in Season 4.
Functionality[]
The Shopping Cart seats two players, each with a different role. The first player acts as the 'driver' and pushes the cart. The second player is the passenger, who stands in the basket, and can use weapons or items. The Shopping Cart also takes advantage of the terrain, gaining large amounts of speed on a decline. The Shopping Cart has no brakes, and can only be slowed by hitting a wall or coming to a gradual stop. Players will take damage if the cart falls from a great height.
Obtained[]
The Shopping Cart can be found at residential areas like Retail Row or Holly Hedges. They have a 60% spawn rate.

- The Shopping Cart could have been used in an exploit to reach the Spawn Island by getting eliminated at the very edge of the map in Playground and respawning on the Island.
- There used to exist an interaction between the Shopping Cart and the Minigun, where firing the Minigun would cause the player to move at great speeds in the opposite direction to where they fired. This was removed as some point, and cannot be recreated in Creative.
