The Crimson Crane in Mario Kart Tour
Appears in Mario Kart Tour

The Crimson Crane is a High-End glider in Mario Kart Tour. It was introduced in the New Year's Tour and became the signature glider of Daisy (Yukata) in the Summer Festival Tour. It is a glider that resembles a red orizuru, with the emblem located on the wings. The Crimson Crane provides better chances of getting Red Shells from Item Boxes and increases the number of points earned for hitting other drivers with Red Shells.

This game also introduces two variants of this glider: a gold-colored variant, known as the Gold Crane, was introduced in the Cooking Tour, and a light-pink variant, known as the Springtime Crane, was introduced in the Mario vs. Peach Tour. Both gliders also have the High-End classification.
