Mastery (Asphalt 8+)

: "Mastery" redirects here. For the Asphalt Xtreme equivalent, see Mastery (Asphalt Xtreme).
Car Mastery (or just Mastery) is another single player game mode of Asphalt 8: Airborne+. It offers 15 single-lap races with traffic, called Challenges, for each car of the game, with the possibility to earn Credits, Car Upgrades, Car Kits and Licenses. This mode is only available for players with at least 26 stars in the Career Mode.
A similar version, called Moto Mastery, is used for motorcycles. Some Moto Mastery's are free try, meaning that the player can use the motorbike without obtaining it first.
== Challenges ==
For each car in the game there are 15 Mastery Challenges available. These races increase in difficulty: the ranks of the cars of NPC opponents will gradually increase from the initial car rank for Challenge 1 to MAX+PRO rank for Challenge 15. To be able to accept a certain Challenge, i.e. take part in the race, each previous Challenge must have been completed.
Challenges are races either one of these types: Classic, Unplugged, or Flawless. All of these race modes require a first place finish in order to be successfully completed. The Unplugged and Flawless modes, however, come with a twist: in an Unplugged race no nitro tanks appear on the track, whilst in the Flawless mode, the player is not allowed to wreck their car. A wrecked car results in immediate disqualification and the race ending with no credits awarded.
According to the in-game database, the AI racers are actually ranked higher than what the game shows (except at the first Mastery Challenge). For example, a Mastery Challenge with a required rank of 1725 actually has the AI racers ranked at 1777, despite the game saying otherwise. Because of this, in the later Mastery Challenges, the player must not make mistakes in order to finish first. 
== Licenses ==
 Licenses, also sometimes called Mastery Points, are permanent collectable items which work as an experience level, similar to the star system, which you cannot buy but only earn. However instead of giving you access to new levels, the Licenses give you access to various rewards such as new Decal packs, and cars exclusively available through Licenses: DS E-TENSE () Porsche Taycan Turbo S (), Volkswagen I.D. R (), Jaguar XKR-S GT (), BMW M4 GTS (), Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 Clubsport (), Ferrari SF90 Stradale (), Italdesign Zerouno (), Lotus Evija (), Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 (), Mazzanti Evantra Millecavalli (), Aspark Owl (), Bugatti Chiron (), Ferrari FXX K 
() and Lamborghini Sián FKP 37 ().
All cars earned through Licenses have only pro upgrades, and do not feature max upgrades.
Licenses are represented as a rectangular blue icon with a beige steering wheel on it.
== Credits Grinding ==
== Challenge Rewards ==
For each race you play in the Mastery mode, you get a number of rewards. Similar to events, you can cash in those rewards after the race, or you can decide to leave them for later.
Each Challenge grants a Credits reward and either a vehicle upgrade or mastery licenses.
