All 18 Customization Upgrades in Driving Empire

The Customization Garage is where Driving Empire's cars stop being purchases and start being builds. Its menu splits into two worlds: the appearance side (paint, rims, kits, wraps, and the rest) and the performance side, where cash buys real speed through engines, tires, and boost. Together they are the game's tuning culture in eighteen menu entries.

Performance Upgrades

7 items

The speed menu: engine, aspiration, tires, suspension, brakes, drivetrain, and boost.

Suspension

The Suspension option allows players to alter their vehicle's ride height, wheel camber, and wheel offset. The cost of these modifications scale with the change in one of the aforementioned settings, so the more the player changes the suspension, the more it costs.

Engine Upgrades

The Engine Upgrades option allows players to upgrade the engine's performance, to make the car faster and accelerate quicker. When they were first introduced in December 4th, 2020, the modifications were a lot stronger, but have since been nerfed a couple times. This option is the only performance o

Aspiration

The Aspiration option allows players to change the type of aspiration the vehicle has, further increasing the vehicle's acceleration. It used to be appliable on electric cars but has since been removed, and is currently restriced to cars with internal combustion engines. Unlike most upgrade options,

Brakes

The Brakes option allows players to improve their braking performance, allowing their vehicle to stop faster. These upgrades have strong cost scaling, but are one of the cheapest upgrades overall.

Tires

The Tires option allows players to change the grip of their tires, either to increase grip or worsen it. The cost of these upgrades scale similarly to the Brakes option, but costs more overall.

Drivetrain

The Drivetrain option allows players to swap the drive type of their vehicle, to front-wheel drive, rear-wheel drive, or all-wheel drive. Drivetrain swaps come at a fixed cost and are one of the cheapest upgrades. Front-wheel drive and rear-wheel drive have a fixed cost of $15,000 cash, while all-wh

Boost

The Boost mechanic allows players to gain a temporary boost in acceleration and speed with the press of a button. This can be upgraded in the customization menu, where there are four available options. The cost of these upgrades has low scaling and has a maximum cost similar to the Tires option.

Appearance options

The cosmetic side covers every visible surface: primary and secondary paint, chrome, interior color, rims, calipers, body kits, spoilers, wraps, and the license plate. Police Mode is the odd one out, converting eligible vehicles into liveried patrol cars. None of it touches performance, which makes the appearance menu a pure expression budget.

Performance upgrades

The performance tab is where money becomes lap time: engine upgrades and aspiration changes for power, tires and suspension for grip and stance, brakes for stopping, drivetrain swaps for handling character, and boost for the overtake button. Upgrades are mostly universal across vehicles and cash-priced, so a tuned mid-tier car routinely embarrasses a stock exotic.

Where to do it

Drive into the Customization Garage, or buy Mobile Customization (50,000 dollars in-game or via gamepass) to open the menu anywhere. Serious racers tune per venue; everyone else tunes once and drives happy.
