How to earn cash

Tips

In short Near misses with traffic and obstacles are your main source of cash.

Cash is the in-game currency you use to unlock new vehicles. The game pays you automatically whenever you get close to another car or obstacle.

Tips worth knowing

Drive close to other cars and roadside obstacles to trigger near-miss payouts
Cash is awarded automatically — you do not need to press anything
Every new vehicle you want to unlock requires enough cash

Getting out of your vehicle

Step

In short You must be fully stopped before the game will let you exit.

The game does not allow you to exit while the vehicle is in motion. Bring your speed all the way down to zero first, then hold the exit key.

Bring the vehicle to a complete stop
Hold F until your character steps out

Managing your vehicle collection

Tips

In short The car menu is where you buy new vehicles and switch between the ones you already own.

Press P while you are sitting in a vehicle to open the car menu. From there you can see every vehicle you have unlocked, check how much cash you still need for the ones you want, and swap to a different ride. Every car in the game is a fictional design.

Tips worth knowing

Open the car menu with P at any time while in a vehicle
Check the cash price of a vehicle before committing to grind for it
Switch to any vehicle you have already unlocked directly from the menu
