In the first game his truck Napalm Cone which is a powerful bomb that is one of the most powerful special weapons in the game. The truck itself has poor speed and handing but above average armor.

In this game his truck still have poor speed and handling and surprisingly good armor for an ice cream truck. However it's special has changed. His new Napalm Cones do less damaged but can be "spammed" constantly thanks to how quickly they regenerate. They now having homing capabilities which seem to work best when targeting vehicles further away.

His truck isn't nearly as beat-up as before. It is still slow and sluggish but with good armor. His special weapon is now Flaming Head a powerful bomb that explodes on contact or by remote detonation. (non-canon)

Sweet Tooth is now the final boss of the game. As such he has a powerful vehicle in the game. His armor surpasses even Minion (a tank) and while not the fastest in the same he is fast and the truck handles much better. His special is Henchmen where he unleashes three clown heads. The blue one dragged in vehicles which what looks like electricity (possibly suppose to be magnetism). The green one launches lots of missiles, and the red ones throws fireballs. They track opponents long distances and can pass through walls. Though not explicitly shown it is likely operated by remote since the endings would seem to imply that he is not actually in the truck. (Non-canon)

The appearance of his truck is different but his stats are more similar to the classic games with slow and sluggish vehicle but with good armor. His new special is Sweet Bot where his truck transforms into towering contraption revealing hidden missile racks that unleash homing missiles. (Non-canon)

In this game it is a remote control car. Not the fastest but has decent handling and good armor. His new special is fires a "ice cream ricochets" that bounces off walls and will home in on opponents even if it misses the first time making it difficult to avoid. (Non-canon)

For his classic ice cream truck has slow speed and poor handling but very good armor. It isn't nearly as beat-up as in classic games. His special attack is six Napalm Cone where he lops a flaming attack from the top of his truck. It has some homing ability. If it misses it will bounce off walls but no longer has homing.

His vehicle returns to his classic slow and sluggish but well armored. His Laughing Ghost special has the head on the vehicle detach and strike the opponent. It can even go through walls. It once again has the Sweet Bot special allowing it to transform into a robot-like form. Only now Sweet Bot can fly into the air. While in this form it has yet another special called Sweet Slam where it drops from the air releasing a shock-wave on impact. It can do surprising damage by ramming other vehicles.
