Data details：

Acceleration: There is a very noticeable speed loss effect when racing through corners or drifting. Therefore, acceleration is extremely important for the car, and it determines the lower limit of the car's performance: high panel acceleration allows the car to peak faster after the start and cornering.

Handling: The same as acceleration affects the lower limit of a car's performance. Handling determines a car's cornering ability and the speed loss effect of cornering. Generally speaking, the higher the handling, the better the cornering ability and the lower the cornering speed loss. However, the same or similar handling will feel slightly different for different cars, so the handling value is for reference only.

Top speed: It represents the highest speed of the car and determines the performance limit of the car. However, it is difficult for cars with low acceleration panel and low handling panel to reach top speed.
