Vehicles
Asphalt 8: Airborne currently has 244 vehicles (230 cars and 14 motorcycles), divided into 5 classes: D, C, B, A and S, with Class D being the lowest and Class S being the highest. For the full list of vehicles, see this page. Most vehicles also belong to a Collection, that give Credits or various other items as bonuses when the player owns all vehicles of a collection. Vehicles can be bought for Credits or Tokens, can be assembled with Blueprints, are unlocked through Car Mastery, or are only obtainable within their respective events.

However, 6 vehicles have been removed from the game for non-owners, one is currently on hold and one is a one-time promotional TLE-exclusive car, reducing the number of playable vehicles to 236. To know more, see Asphalt 8: Airborne/Licensing Issues.

The "real" speed of cars (mostly Class S cars and some high-end Class B and A cars) differs from what is indicated in the HUD. Check the page Speed Modification for more details.
