The garage is one of the key essentials to ProTanki and your tank's formation in general, as that is where all your possessions and tank reside in. Once in the garage, the player will be greeted by their tank and a multitude of options and settings to choose from; buying new turrets, hulls, paints, supplies and product kits, passes and gifts; you can also upgrade your equipment through the garage. If the player is in a battle, they can choose to enter the garage while remaining in the battle, or they can choose to exit the battle and enter your garage instead.

The majority of the garage's interface is taken up by the garage preview. It shows the tank which you are using, with the ability to view it from different angles by rotating the camera.


===Information===
The information section is located on the right side of the garage. It displays information of the selected item, such as the item's name, description, statistics and prices.

For equipment that is available for purchase/further upgrades, an option to "Buy" or "Upgrade" will also be displayed.
When purchasing a turret or hulls, they will initially be at M0, unless a higher modification is available at your current rank.

It is also possible to equip the item by clicking the "Equip" button, which will replace the current equipped item with the selected item.

The choice of a turret largely depends on various factors, such as the map size, enemy tank choice, and, of course your playstyle and personal preference. Turrets can be upgraded up to 3 modifications, M1 being the lowest and M3 the highest. You might as well notice that some turret upgrades cost more and require a higher [[Ranks|Rank]], that's because turrets are divided into 3 tiers.
