Carmageddon: TDR 2000's powerups come from several pickups scattered along the level. These powerups affect the way the game is changed, and can help or harm the player. Some powerups are different and more original from the ones in the previous installments.

The following is a list of all of the game's 104 powerups, plus the 5 added by the Nosebleed Pack. Their names can be found inside \ASSETS\CARMA.pak\PowerupStrings_Internal.txt and must be used in conjunction with addPowerUp to activate them using cheats. addPowerUp is case sensitive, but the powerups' names aren't.
