1. Walk up to a showroom car. A spec card appears on the right.
2. Read the class badge and name, the top speed (stock → fully upgraded) and five bars: speed, acceleration, handling, braking, durability.
3. Walk to another car and the card changes. The dealership catalogue also shows each car's class next to its price.

1. Sit in the driver seat.
2. Type /specs. The spec card shows for a few seconds.
3. Type /vehspeed to show your live speed with the car's class and its speed limit at the bottom of the screen. Type it again to hide it.

1. A stock car sits in the lower part of its class range.
2. Mechanic upgrades (better engine, brakes, gearbox, turbo and so on) push it further up its range, but never past the top of its class. An upgraded A class car never becomes an S class car.
3. Worn parts make a car slower. If your car feels slow, have a mechanic check it. See Fuel & Repairs and Customizing Your Vehicle.

D and C cars are only capped and never get extra power, so a slow scooter stays a slow scooter. Faster classes get enough power to actually reach their range.

Above S there are three classes you can only get from the Gem store (see Gems):

All of them need a Class S licence.

• Police cars have their own ladder (Patrol, Pursuit, Interceptor) and only police can drive them. Ambulances and fire trucks use the normal classes.
• Helicopters, planes, boats, bicycles and trains have no class and no class speed limit. Aircraft and boats need a pilot or boat licence instead.

Economy (D) cars take a little more crash damage than other road classes. Motorbikes take more damage than cars of the same class. Store import cars are tougher than any road car.
