Characters & Builds

Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled features a vast roster of characters, each with unique stats that influence their performance on the track. Understanding these stats and how they interact with different kart parts is crucial for optimizing your 'build' and finding a playstyle that suits you.

Characters are categorized into different speed classes, which determine their base stats. Karts also have their own stats, but these are purely cosmetic in Nitro-Fueled; the character's stats are what truly matter for performance. However, certain kart bodies, wheels, and paint jobs can be combined for aesthetic 'builds' that complement your chosen character.
