When the player has a full nitro bar and taps twice on the Nitro button, a purple pulse is released from the vehicle while the car's speed increases. The game also features ' nitro shockwave', returning from Asphalt 6: Adrenaline and Asphalt 7: Heat. The more reputation points the club scores, the better rewards, ranging from credits to blueprints for cars. Also new to the series are 'clubs', where up to 20 players can collaboratively score “reputation points” to achieve rewards. Introduced in the 2019 Summer Update, several cars like the Mercedes-AMG GTS could have special tires, rims, and changes to the bodywork added to the car. Several cars are also convertibles (they can be converted from closed roofs to open ones in-game), like the BMW Z4 LCI E89 and McLaren 570S. Some models also allow for carbon parts on the hood, trunk, and wings. Once the car has been starred up at least once, the player can create custom paint job colors to the body, rims, and brake calipers for most models. Upon unlocking a car, the player can choose from a few official stock colors. Each car can also be customized with the new car editor feature. For each new star, the car's performance capability is increased (at the cost of a lesser fuel tank quantity). All cars in the game now require 'blueprints' to unlock and then subsequently 'star up', with each of them having anywhere from 3 to 6 stars. The player starts with a car in the lowest class (Class D), the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X. Like its predecessor, each of the cars belongs to a class progressively featuring higher performance and rarity: D, C, B, A, and S. There are currently 142 cars as of the September 2021 update. There were 48 cars featured in the game when soft-launched, but the worldwide release saw the introduction of four new cars, leading to 52 cars.

The gameplay in Asphalt 9 is similar to the other Asphalt Games with noticeable differences in graphics and design. Pictured is a gameplay still featuring the TouchDrive control scheme. Asphalt 9 makes extensive use of simulated HDR rendering and pixel shaders, as seen on the sky and specular reflections on the road surface.
