Yaya Panda

"Crash! Only you can prevent this!"

-Yaya Panda, Crash Nitro Kart 2(Mobile)

Yaya Panda (Japanese: ヤヤ・パンダ) is a character from Crash Bandicoot Nitro Kart 2 and Crash Bandicoot Nitro Kart 3D. Yaya's cute and cuddly appearance hides a crazy love for extreme speeds and she lives in a bamboo forest. She has a slow acceleration, but is very fast. Her petite frame and light weight make her perfect for tight corners. Yaya is initially locked, but can be unlocked by collecting enough Wumpa Fruit or by collecting all C.R.A.S.H. letters in the Fairy track of the Wumpa Cup. She is the only character from the Crash Bandicoot universe to be only on the iPhone (along with Buggy Joe). It is unknown how she was created.

When Nitros Oxide teamed up with Dr. Neo Cortex and Ripper Roo to take over the world, she teamed up with Crash Bandicoot and Coco Bandicoot to save it and to save her home, too.
