Advice about useful libraries to create a 2D car game (hill climb racing style)
A physics engine for the basic stuff (colisions with the terrain, gravity, rigid body mechanics, suspension springs...) would be great and I think Matter.js it's a great option

Is there a good JavaScript library for 2D collision?
This was a bold faced lie. Matter.js has no continuous collision detection. You wasted so much of my time I hope you are mildly inconvenienced in the near future! https://github.com/liabru/matter-js/issues/5
