Yaya Panda

"Crash! Only you can prevent this!"

- Yaya Panda

Yaya Panda is a panda bear residing in a bamboo forest. When Nitros Oxide teamed up with Dr. Neo Cortex and Ripper Roo to deforest her habitat in Crash Nitro Kart 2, Yaya joined forces with Crash and Coco to prevent their nefarious plan.

Her appearances include Crash Nitro Kart 2, Crash Bandicoot Nitro Kart 3D, Crash Bandicoot Nitro Kart 2, and Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled. She is also the only character from the Crash Bandicoot series to originate from a mobile phone game, and, up until joining Nitro Fueled, had only ever appeared on that platform.

Crash Nitro Kart 2
Yaya is unlocked upon players completing the fifth and sixth challenges in Challenge Mode.

Crash Bandicoot Nitro Kart 3D
Yaya 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.

Crash Bandicoot Nitro Kart 2
Yaya can be unlocked by accumulating 52 mission points. The kart she drives in this installment is the Yellow Horde, originally from Crash Tag Team Racing and previously driven by Crash Bandicoot.

Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled
Yaya is set to appear as a playable racer as part of the Winter Festival Grand Prix. She can be purchased from the Pit Stop.

Personality
Yaya's cute and cuddly appearance hides a crazy love for extreme speeds.

Appearance
Yaya is a panda, though how she came to be is unknown. She has black and white fur, black makeup around her green eyes, and long black hair tied in a ponytail, with a red clip in her bangs and white flower on the back of her head. She also wears a green cheongsam with red stitching. She also has red pants with black, green and red shoes.

Abilities
Yaya has a slow acceleration, but is very fast. Her petite frame and light weight make her perfect for tight corners.

During races, she can also be heard shouting "Hi-yah!", possibly hinting that she practices kung fu.
