Driver Skills are a series of upgradable attributes for players. There are three Driver Skills classes: Race, Pursuit, and Explore, with each having its own unique benefits. Players earn a ''Skill Point'' upon reaching a new level. A ''Skill Point'' can be assigned to a single skill attribute to unlock its benefits. Players can continue to add their Driver Skills as they level up with more Driver Skills becoming unlocked as they progress to higher levels and increase the Ranks of certain Driver Skill classes. Some Driver Skills are locked until the player reaches a certain rank in another or has placed a certain number of ''Skill Points'' into a particular class. Driver Skills extend the duration, increase the effectiveness, and reduce the cooldown period of Power-Ups and increases the performance of a player's car.
