If you’re not down for the fast paced hustle and bustle of shooters you can still have a good time of things driving with friends, so we’ve compiled a list of some of the highest rated Car online games both free and paid.
There’s all different kinds of games even in just the driving games genre. You have your sim racers, which try to be as true to life as they can be, allowing you to live out the dream of pushing super cars high speed around a track. There’s your more cartoony kart racers like the titular Mario Kart, Crash Team Racing and more, and games that are somewhere in between. Here’s some of the best online car games:

Starting with Sim Racers, Forza has been on top of the game for a while. While it might not have a movie of the same name like Gran Turismo. Forza has been one of the go tos for a lot of people for its social features. In addition to the strong driving mechanics, you have periodic unlocks and social integration like being able to race your friends and time trials. Be that best lap or a grand prix qualifier’s style best lap leaderboard. Forza does have a modern price tag for its modern looks. Sitting with mixed review on steam, its RRP fetches that heft $60 price tag but can found for half off.
Despite being a titan of the industry, other competitors have started to help draw more scrutiny to the series that has been largely spinning its wheels for a while. DriveClub burst onto the scene and has been hailed as a fresh standard. With graphics that still rival that of the newer gen Raytracing enhanced visuals. DriveClub does an amazing job of driving in style. Without as many of the pitfalls of the more triple A driving games. GranTurismo and Forza definitely should be taking note of what DriveClub and its community have been doing.
If you’re playing on mobile, there’s a couple of choices available, one of the most commonly picked ones is Asphalt Legends. The arcadey style racing, similar to the burnout series controls well on mobile, and has poppy visuals. Number 9 being the most recent game in the series at the time of writing. The titular Need for Speed series also has an entry worth talking about here on mobile as well with Need for Speed: No Limits.
Obviously, Mario Kart is pretty much the gold standard for kart racing games. However if you’re looking to play online, you’ll need a Nintendo Online Subscription. Crash Team Racing is another arcadey style racer that has much slippery cart control for some much more intense shortcut taking and risk management. Still featuring the items that are standard for kart racers, if Mario Kart isn’t your speed, this is a good choice.
