What is Garage Mode?

The garage is a very useful mode of climbing in hill-climbing racing games. In this mode, a player can make a custom vehicle. You can unlock this mode by spending 300 gems. After unlocking this mode, you get a free frame (chassis) of a “Hill Climber” car. You will get this car after in a “Gift Chest” opening. 

 Although you have Hill Climber for free, this is not the end. You can use other body frames, too. However, to get new frames, you have to spend more money. The first frame will be unlocked by spending 1 million coins. Any subsequent frame usage will charge you a coin price of the previous plus 1 million.

You can upgrade hill climbers by adding different tires and engines. Mixing different parts makes a unique and custom vehicle that will help you win races on various tracks. For example, if you want a long run in the “Desert” stage, which has a gravel surface, then “Gravel Tires” will be your best companion for this. 
 
Similarly, to make a vehicle climb steep hills, you can use a powerful engine. So, this mode will provide lots of assistance and ease in making more records in the game.

Engine Types

In the garage mode of the hill climb racing game, a player can change the vehicle’s engine according to the needs of the terrain. You can choose the engine on the basis of the following things:
  • Fuel Efficiency
  • Acceleration
  • Power Output
So, we will discuss every engine that is present in the game.

Inline Engine

The inline engine is the most basic engine that you can use for your vehicle. It has two variants. 

Inline V4
Inline V4:

The V4 variant is known for its 20% low fuel consumption. But if you want to use this engine, then you must compromise on very low power output.
Due to low power output, this is a useless engine for almost all the stages of hill climb racing.

Inline V6
Inline V6:

The inline V6 engine launched with 30% more enhanced power than the v4 engine.
But with improved power, its fuel consumption is relatively high and has good efficiency.

Diesel Engine

Diesel engines, as its name suggests, use diesel as fuel. It comes in three variations:

Diesel Engine v6
Diesel Engine v6
Diesel Engine v8
Diesel V8 TT
Diesel Engine V8 TT

V-Type Engines

V-type engines are also poor engines in hill climb racing games. It comes in three variants:

V4
V4

The V4 engine is the first variant of the V-type engine family. Its six pistons will give you 40% more power. The drawback of this engine is that it has very poor fuel efficiency.

V6
V6

If you want to get 60% more power, then you can use a V6 engine, which uses eight pistons.
It is perfect for your off-road journeys. Its drawback is the same as the V4 engine, “Low Fuel Efficiency.”

V8
V8

This engine will give you 80% more power with its powerful twelve-piston engine design.
Due to the increased number of pistons, fuel efficiency significantly decreases.

Electric Engines

Electric Engines are designed to use battery power instead of traditional power sources. It comes in two variants:

Electric Engine
Electric Engine
Electric Zap Engine
Electric Zap

 Gas Turbine

Gas Turbine

Gas turbines are thrust engines that have terrible fuel efficiency and 40% more power. Along with poor fuel efficiency, this engine also lags in providing good initial torque.
