# Epic Plane Evolution vs Car Evolve

Epic Plane Evolution and Car Evolve both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 55% of Car Evolve's written reviews are positive against 32% of Epic Plane Evolution's. Epic Plane Evolution's advantage is ratings volume (174K vs 6.8K). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Epic Plane Evolution sells 15 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and Car Evolve sells 9 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.6 for Epic Plane Evolution against 4.6 for Car Evolve. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Epic Plane Evolution has 174K ratings behind it against 6.8K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 32% of Epic Plane Evolution's written reviews are positive against 55% of Car Evolve's.
