How will it perform on the track?" ―Ridge Racer (PSP)'s car description This monster, with windshield coated carbon-fibre, are specs off the scale. " The concept machine, Crinale, originally developed under the codename "Devil", defies every common sense of the auto industry. It has had some dramatic changes since it's previous form. At the climax of the battle, the Crinale meets its demise as it crashes and explodes. As a rival, the Crinale engages in a fierce battle with the player, actively attacking them. On the encounter with the Devil Trailer, there is a chance it unloads the Crinale to race against the player. The Soldat Crinale makes an appearance in one of the races of Pachislot Ridge Racer. Interestingly, the decals of the Crinale can glow in the dark whenever it is raced inside a tunnel, or at nighttime. The Ridge Racer V incarnation of the Crinale closely resembles a Porsche Schuppan 962CR, a hypercar based on the original short-tailed Porsche 962C Group C prototype, where the shapes and proportions are nearly identical, while the front end has some inspiration from the Mosler Consulier GTP. The duel race for the car is staged in the Green Field course. Retaining the original appearance, this version features the Rivelta R765DV engine, a quad-turbo 6000cc engine that allows the car to accelerate to 475 km/h or 295 mph.

In most of its appearances, the Crinale resembles a Le Mans race car (Group C in early games up to V, as well as in PSP Ridge Racer 2 and a modern Le Mans Prototype in 6, Unbounded, and Vita), while the first Ridge Racer for PSP and 7 opted for a more futuristic look. In all of the Crinale's appearances, the Crinale has always been depicted in dark gray (changeable in Ridge Racer (PSP) and Ridge Racer 7), with the number 13 (considered unlucky in many societies) and an emblem of a devil with bat-like wings, wielding a pitchfork, all in yellow.ĭuring the events of Ridge Racer V, the Crinale was once a Rivelta product, but after Soldat's acquisition and absorption of the company, the Crinale was re-branded under Soldat themselves, starting with Ridge Racer (PSP).
