Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Torque Drift at 83% against GRID™ Autosport Custom Edition's 47%. Torque Drift also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 4 months) and rating (4.7 vs 4.3). GRID™ Autosport Custom Edition's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and chart position there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Torque Drift sells 11 one-off in-app purchases and GRID™ Autosport Custom Edition sells 12 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Torque Drift holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Torque Drift has 43K ratings behind it against 1K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 83% of Torque Drift's written reviews are positive against 47% of GRID™ Autosport Custom Edition's.
Torque Drift ships an update every 3 weeks, GRID™ Autosport Custom Edition every 4 months. Both last shipped on October 27, 2026.
