Forza and Extreme E, the sport for purpose electric off-road racing series, are teaming up for Series 10 of Horizon Mexico.
You’re invited to get behind the wheel of the fully-electric Extreme E ODYSSEY 21 e-SUV in Forza Horizon 5 and experience four weeks of unmissable Extreme E racing action on the Festival Playlist from July 21 through August 17. Read on for more details!
Game Fixes and Release Notes
Available to download on Xbox, Windows, and Steam from July 19, the Series 10 Update includes access to the Forza Horizon 5: Hot Wheels expansion, new Extreme E content and numerous bug fixes and changes to improve your gameplay experience.
The issues which have received fixes include:
Players could lose credits if their Auction House bid failed.
Horizon Tour autocompleting itself in the Festival Playlist.
TAA on PC causing wheels to appear blurry or transparent.
Certain cars feeling more unstable to drive when using simulated steering after a physics change in Series 9.
Inability to challenge players to head-to-head races in The Eliminator if they were using the Telemetry overlay.
Players could timeout when joining an EventLab event in co-op.
Players could be returned to Freeroam during Horizon Open.
Series 10 also introduces a new save recovery system. With this update installed, if loss of save-game data is detected, players will see a pop-up message offering to restore a previous backup. Players will not be able to recover lost saves from prior to Series 10 with this new system.
Each season of the Festival Playlist in Series 10 is inspired by the real-world Extreme E race calendar with new challenges and Seasonal Championships taking drivers to different X Prix locations in Mexico every week where they can push the ODYSSEY 21 to its limit in Dirt and Cross Country races.
In the Summer “Island X Prix” season, you’ll be racing along the east coast by Playa Azul; Autumn brings the “Energy X Prix” to the city of Guanajuato; Winter accelerates the action to the “Copper X Prix” Canyon; and finally, the competition heats up for the Spring finale as competitors race through the Baja “Desert X Prix” in Dunas Blancas.
Check back regularly to complete new events and challenges where you can unlock unique variants of the ODYSSEY 21 that represent each team competing in the 2022 Extreme E Championship and gear up for the off-road trails ahead with Extreme E race suits. Plus, look out for new Extreme E themed collectibles, billboards and race dressing as part of Forza Horizon 5’s Evolving World.
Extreme E ODYSSEY 21 e-SUV
The ODYSSEY 21 e-SUV is a bespoke, purpose-built vehicle for Extreme E that’s used by all the participating teams. Each vehicle, which weights 1,780 kilograms, contains a common package of standardized parts manufactured by Spark Racing Technology, a battery produced by Williams Advanced Engineering, a set of ultra-high-performance Continental CrossContact tires, and a niobium chassis by CBMM.
The powertrain of this 2.3-metre-wide e-SUV is designed for sprint races and the 470kW maximum power output of the battery – which equates to around 550bhp – is built to withstand the extreme temperatures, conditions and terrains of Extreme E. For each X Prix race on the calendar, the cars are transported across the world on the St. Helena vessel, which is Extreme E’s floating base of operations that reduces the environmental impact of this global race series.
Drive the Extreme E ODYSSEY 21 e-SUV in Forza Horizon 5 from July 21 and don’t forget to check back on the Festival Playlist every week in Series 10 where you can unlock unique team variants:

In addition to Extreme E rewards, the Festival Playlist includes a quadruplet of iconic Porsches that are new to Forza Horizon 5.
1971 Porsche #23 917/20
Earn 20 PTS during the Summer “Wet” Season on the Series 10 Festival Playlist. Available from July 21 – July 27.
The coming of the Porsche 917 was driven by rules modifications to slow speeds of the Group 6 Prototypes. The result was a car that still holds the fastest lap at the Circuit de Sarthe in the configuration they ran in 1971. The lessons that influenced the 917 were multifold, including weight savings, aerodynamics, downforce, and one of the only true Boxer 12s in existence. What you see here is the unglamorously named “Pink Pig” which was a test bed for low-drag and aerodynamic concepts. It qualified seventh for its only race at Le Mans in 1971 but crashed during the race when its brakes failed. It currently lives in its butcher’s cut livery at Porsche’s Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen Museum, but you can experience its power and glory today in Forza.
1995 Porsche 911 Carrera 2 by Gunther Werks
Earn 20 PTS during the Autumn “Storm” Season on the Series 10 Festival Playlist. Available from July 28 – Aug. 3.
Before building this custom car, Guntherwerks was known primarily as a manufacturer of after-market wheels and other parts for luxury vehicles. This rebuilt Porsche 911 Carerra 2, also known as the 400R, represents their first custom car build. 25 of these performance vehicles were built, making them incredibly rare. Guntherwerks imagined what a GT3 RS version of the 993 could look like when they designed the 400R. The goal in the Rothsport-built engine and lightweight body were performance above all, which is unusual in the world of custom luxury cars, which normally emphasize comfort over speed.
1964 Porsche 356 C Cabriolet Emory Special
Earn 20 PTS during the Winter “Dry” Season on the Series 10 Festival Playlist. Available from Aug. 4 – Aug. 10.
The custom restoration work for which Emory Motorsports is known is unparalleled, and that’s nowhere clearer than in their Porsche 356C Outlaw. Every Outlaw that is produced by Emory is custom in its components and styling, but they all breathe fire through the proprietary Emory-Rothsport Outlaw-4 engine, plus a 911 suspension system. All of that layered on to what is already a vintage car lover’s dream in the 356 C makes this the ultimate package.
1990 Porsche 911 Reimagined by Singer - DLS
Earn 20 PTS during the Spring “Hot” Season on the Series 10 Festival Playlist. Available from Aug. 11 – Aug. 17.
What does it look like to take a vintage design 911 and reimagine it as the ultimate air-cooled Porsche? It looks like the DLS from Singer – the Dynamics and Lightweighting Study – one of the most sought-after 911s in existence. Singer, the automotive restoration group headed up by Rob Dickinson and based in Los Angeles, has developed a signature style that’s all about the smallest of details, as summed up by their slogan “Everything is important.” Those details make all the difference – a carbon fiber body, plus advanced 4-liter air-cooled engine that spins past 9000 rpm, codeveloped with Formula 1 tech courtesy of Williams Engineering. Williams is also responsible for developing the suspension and the reworked aerodynamics. The whole thing also received technical input from the mind behind the GT3 engine, Hans Mezger. The result of all the resources and detail work that went into creating the DLS is a production run of 75 cars, worth 1.8 million dollars each.

Forza Horizon 5 Series 9 Update
Earlier this week, we showed you a whole new world of racing in Forza Horizon 5: Hot Wheels, the first, eagerly awaited expansion coming July 19 to Forza Horizon 5. Therefore, it’s only fitting that Series 9 celebrates the unique blend of fun and creativity that is distinctly Hot Wheels with new cars, events and cosmetics.
Forza Horizon 5 Series 9 will be available to download on Steam, Windows, and Xbox from Tuesday, June 21. The Festival Playlist related rewards and content discussed in this blog are available to unlock from June 23 through July 20. Read on for all the details!
Game Fixes and Release Notes
Series 9 includes numerous changes to improve your Forza Horizon 5 experience. This includes a fix for an issue that prevented full 12-player Convoys from launching events, a fix for the darkened hood and bumper views that occurred when changing camera views, and a fix for Daily Challenges in the Festival Playlist that were either incompletable or suffered from progress loss after rebooting.
The next Forza Horizon 5 update prevents a Speed Zone exploit where boosted speeds were achievable by entering Photo Mode. We’ve also fixed an issue which caused the incorrect car class to be used in a race if players idled before entering the event.
The Accolade “It Just Works” now unlocks as expected once players have completed the Car Mastery skill tree on the 1963 Volkswagen Beetle. In addition, players will see their Creative Hub rank increase as intended.
For players with large car collections who wish to easily auction or remove duplicate cars from their garage, we’ve introduced a new filter option to the car select screen that when enabled, shows only the cars you own duplicates of.
In Series 9, the list of officially supported languages for subtitles in Forza Horizon 5 has been updated to include Danish, Greek, Dutch, Norwegian, Swedish, Finnish and European Portuguese. We’re also expanding VO to include European Spanish, Italian and Korean.
For the full list of fixes and improvements coming in Series 9, check out our release notes. We continue to listen closely to your Forza Horizon 5 feedback as we introduce new fixes with each game update. Here’s where you can stay up to date on the issues we’re currently investigating.
Horizon Stories
Series 9 introduces the option to play Horizon Stories in co-op, supporting up to six players in total. In co-op play, the Convoy Leader is allowed to host any Horizon Story available to them. The highest score earned in the group is applied to all participants, so even if some players don’t achieve the objective, those who succeed will complete the mission for everyone.
Players who complete a Horizon Story in co-op will find that mission is already marked as completed once they unlock it in their playthrough.
Temporal Anti-Aliasing (TAA) for PC Players
For Series 9 we are adding a new graphics option called temporal anti-aliasing (TAA).
As an alternative to multi-sample anti-aliasing (MSAA), TAA reduces shimmering by blending multiple video frames and ensuring frame to frame differences are smoothed. Additional detail is captured, resulting in a softer image that works particularly well at lower resolutions.
Our TAA implementation in Forza Horizon 5 minimizes trails and ghosting as is typically seen with this technique. Players can also customize its final appearance using a sharpness control.
We think this is a great, new option for PC gamers, improving our tree foliage while ensuring a smoother, more stable gaming experience overall.
Festival Playlist
Starting with Series 9, a new Forza EV Monthly Rivals event will be open to drivers to set their best lap times. This new Forza EV Rivals complements the existing Monthly Rivals challenge. Every month, you’ll drive a different EV – simply set a clean lap time to score the available Festival Playlist points. We’ve also added a new dedicated EV class to EventLab.
Expand your Forza Horizon 5 garage and wardrobe with new Hot Wheels cars and cosmetics before you blast off to Horizon Hot Wheels Park. Below is a list of the new clothing and car horns available on the Festival Playlist over the coming weeks:
Clothing
- Hot Wheels Hoodie - Hot Wheels Cap - Hot Wheels Tee - Hot Wheels Sundress - Hot Wheels Suit - Hot Wheels Crew Socks - White Bird Leather Boots - Leaf Pattern Leather Boots - Farid Rueda Lion Cap - Farid Rueda Bear Cap - Raúl Urias Horizon Cap - Doodle Pattern Cap
Car Horns
- Hot Wheels Flame - Hot Wheels Guitar Stadium - Hot Wheels Ice - Hot Wheels Monster Truck
Next, we’ll dive into the new cars available to unlock in Series 9, including some returning Hot Wheels fan-favorites that you’ll be certain to recognize.
2018 Hot Wheels 2JetZ
Earn 20 PTS during the Summer “Wet” Season on the Series 9 Festival Playlist from June 23 – June 29.
Handcrafted by Luis Rodriguez, the 2JetZ would go on to be the first-ever winner of the Hot WheelsLegends Tour. The futuristic, yet retro styling of the car is a shining example of the creativity, originality and automotive spirit that makes Hot Wheels such a household name. In building the 2JetZ, Rodriguez was inspired by the record-breaking automobiles that raced the Bonneville Salt Flats, jet-powered aircraft, and a sketch from Hot Wheels designer Dwayne Vance. It’s fitted with a fully race-built 2JZ-GTE – the same motor as found in the Toyota Supra, with a custom Subaru STI six-speed converted into a transaxle and F1-style twin radiator cooling. It outputs an incredible 627 horsepower and weights 1,600 lbs. With a custom chrome moly tubular frame chassis and a molded aluminum skin, as well as custom aero tubing front suspension angled at 30-degrees, the 2JetZ easily establishes itself as a work of art, but the best part of the story is this: to achieve the exhaust's “afterburner” look, Rodriguez welded a vegetable steamer from his kitchen to the muffler. Sometimes one must make do with the tools at their disposal, and in this circumstance, the right decision was clearly made.
1968 Plymouth Barracuda Formula-S
Earn 20 PTS during the Autumn “Storm” Season on the Series 9 Festival Playlist from June 30 – July 6.
Mustang fans might not like to hear it, but the fastback with the name of a predatory fish was actually the first pony car to hit the market. While Ford had the last laugh, selling Mustangs as fast as they could make them, the Barracuda was unfairly overshadowed. But the second-generation Barracuda was a better pony car; its sleeker sheetmetal didn’t share any panels with lesser Valiants, and there were even more go-fast choices to be had in the enlarged engine compartment. In Formula S trim, the Barracuda barely swallowed a 383 Super Commando V8, one of Chrysler’s legendary “B” big-block motors, good for 338 tire-melting horsepower (although with enough credits the ‘Cuda will accept a 426 Hemi in the Upgrade Shop, so you can emulate the Super Stock 426 Barracuda drag racers). While details such as the menacing barracuda emblem on the rear panel and a characteristic split front grille make it one of the more interesting-looking pony cars ever made, it’s the fastback profile and Mopar muscle that distinguishes the Barracuda from the competition.
1970 Dodge Coronet Super Bee
Earn 20 PTS during the Winter “Dry” Season on the Series 9 Festival Playlist from July 7 – July 13.
With the Plymouth Road Runner selling well, Dodge requested the creation of a competitor from the Dodge styling office. One of the challenges was to create a separate identity for the car. At the time both Dodge and Plymouth were competing to become the Chrysler performance division, later to become SRT. Designers were tasked with defining the new low-priced muscle car. They held a contest and Harvey J. Winn was deemed the winner for his play on the “B” body designation and accompanying artwork. The Super Bee was born. Upon production, the Super Bee had its own nuanced appearance with larger rear wheel openings, a more dressed-up grill, and unique tail light configuration. Of course, it could be ordered with a Hemi, and of course it built a legendary history for every person that owned one. You see, the Super Bee belonged to the Scat Pack Group, a moniker that signified the best of Dodge’s power and performance. Owners could sign up to join this community at any Dodge dealership, but their car had to be capable of completing a standing-start quarter mile drag run in 14 seconds! If this challenge sounds like a breeze to you, then the Scat Pack Club would've been your ideal home.
1957 Hot Wheels Nash Metropolitan Custom
Earn 20 PTS during the Spring “Hot” Season on the Series 9 Festival Playlist from July 14 – July 20.
The classic American automobile. Sold from 1953 to 1961, the Austin-manufactured Nash Metropolitan was considered the everyday car of choice for so many, yet more recently it’s become a staple of the Hot Wheels world. Created by Greg Salzillo and Dave Ford, the Nash Metropolitan Custom rose above thousands of competitors and won the 2019 Hot Wheels Legend Tour. With an adorable two-tone paint and a chopped roof that matches its cutesy looks, this rat rod is capable of 350 horsepower and 400 lb-ft of torque delivered to the rear wheels thanks to a 5-liter naturally-aspirated V8 engine swap and a 3-speed transmission. Salzillo and Ford built the Nash Metropolitan Custom using a unique chassis that is fitted on a coil-over suspension while the wheel fitment gives the illusion of camber angle. The overall result is a car that looks innocent on the outside but can be a handful to control once behind-the-wheel, the ideal recipe for thrill seekers and the perfect candidate for a Hot Wheels badge of honor.
New Wheelspin Cars
Coinciding with those featured on the Festival Playlist, new Hot Wheels cars are coming to Forza Horizon 5’s Wheelspins as part of the Series 9 Update. In addition, players can also unlock these cars in Forza Horizon 5: Hot Wheels by playing the campaign.
2012 Hot Wheels Rip Rod
Is it a buggy? It is a hot rod? It doesn’t matter what you call the Rip Rod because this diminutive Hot Wheels ride is ready to shake things up on any surface. This beast is equipped with a souped-up two-cylinder motor that makes better than 100 hp. While that might not seem like much, in this rod, it is more than enough to thrill (or spill depending on your skills behind the wheel). One look at the suspension tells you this tricked out custom is ready for any terrain. This is a super lightweight tube chassis pro-built machine and it’s all Hot Wheels. In short, the Rip Rod really rips.
1949 Hot Wheels Ford F-5 Dually Custom Hot Rod
Entered as a finalist in the 2018 Hot Wheels Legends Tour, the F-5 Dually Custom built by Mitch Allread transforms a commercial-grade, everyday truck into a truly unique rat rod! After five years of extensive work, which included pulling a chip-tuned 7.3-liter “Power Stroke” diesel engine from a 1999 Ford F-350 Super Duty and pairing it with the body of a 1949 Ford F-5, a truly one-of-a-kind custom monster was born. Weighing 4660 lbs., this is one of the coolest and fastest rat rods in the world! Capable of 450 horsepower, the turbocharged V8 and its five-speed transmission combine to produce a sheer 800 ft-lb of torque. On the outside, this rat rod retains the F-5's dual-rear-wheel configuration but removes the fenders to lower the truck’s stance, all while the cabin has been reduced to only the essentials with tube-and-leather seats, the dashboard basics and a large steering wheel – a constant reminder to the driver that there’s nothing else quite like this F-5 Dually Custom.
2005 Hot Wheels Ford Mustang
To celebrate 50 years of the iconic Ford pony car, Hot Wheels and specialty-builder Action Vehicle Engineering started with a 2005 Mustang and created this beautiful custom model. Featuring huge fender flares, the car’s oil-cooler lines are routed through the empty grill, and its dramatic (and adjustable) spoiler and rear diffuser all contribute to the look. The wheels are one-of-a-kind, built specially for this car. The purple and orange paint colors and carbon-fiber accents make this Mustang pop that much more. Ready for drifting duty or fit for tracking, this one-off build is as collectible as the 1:64 version it inspired.
Car Pass
Three exclusive cars arrive for Forza Horizon 5 Car Pass holders in Series 9 and will be released on a weekly cadence from June 23 through July 7. From that date, the Forza Horizon 5 Car Pass garage will be complete, and players will be able to redeem the full 42-car collection from the Car Pass menu at any Horizon Festival Outpost or Player House.
Below are the new Car Pass vehicles coming in Forza Horizon 5 Series 9 – and they’re all #NewToForza:
2021 Aston Martin DBX
Available June 23 in the Forza Horizon 5 Car Pass.
Step inside and get behind the wheel of the fastest, most powerful, and best handling luxury SUV yet. The first car to be produced on Aston Martin’s new line in St Athan, Wales is arguably one of its most unique yet and worthy of being called a James Bond SUV. It features the design and materials expected of any car from the British manufacturer, while incorporating Mercedes-AMG's M177 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine capable of 542 horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque. That means it can achieve 0-62mph in 4.5 seconds with a top speed of 181mph. Impressive numbers for a luxury SUV. In 2021, the DBX also became an official Formula One Medical Car, joining the Aston Martin Vantage in F1’s fleet of safety cars. Overall, the DBX is a confident SUV that makes a bold statement thanks to its near supercar-like performance and the looks of a high-end, premium sedan with luxurious finishes.
2020 Lexus RC F Track Edition
Available June 30 in the Forza Horizon 5 Car Pass.
Imagine enhancing some of the world’s greatest sports cars with performance upgrades carefully chosen to match the desires of hardcore driving enthusiasts. That’s exactly what Lexus did with its limited run 2020 RC F Track Edition, fitting the kind of components that would typically be reserved for only the most exotic of automobiles while removing weight in the areas it counts most. The result is a car that’s further distinguished from its rivals, delivering fast, durable performance in a 472hp V8. Whoever sits behind the wheel gets to experience a series of upgrades that work together in harmony, with boosted acceleration speeds of 0-60mph in just 3.96 seconds and a top speed of 168mph. Lexus collaborated with its own race teams competing in the Super GT and IMSA series to create a car that could impress both on and off the track, and it’s fair to say the Japanese manufacturer delivered on its own promise.
2019 Nissan 370z Nismo
Available July 7 in the Forza Horizon 5 Car Pass.
Beneath the signature-red engine cover of this 370z beats a specially tuned Nismo 3.7-liter V6 engine, capable of 350 horsepower at 7,400 rpm and a seriously impressive 276 lb-ft of torque. It also sounds great too, thanks to its free-flow dual exhaust combined with a H-pipe configuration to reduce back pressure and create responsive upper-end power for a truly unmatched redline rush. With the largest brakes ever seen in a 370Z – 14-inch four-piston front brakes and 13.8-inch two-piston rear brakes, as well as stiff, fine-tuned competition springs and special body dampers that provide reinforcement to the chassis, the 370z is race-ready. Whether you’re bringing it to the track or cruising along some of the world’s greatest driving roads, the Nismo-tuned 370z ensures you’re in for a good time. All within the bodywork of a truly iconic design, now infused with a racetrack born heritage that proves itself further than ever before.

Expand your Forza Horizon 5 fleet with 10 incredible new cars, including four new Hot Wheels scaled up to life size. Between the lightning fast 2021 Hennessey Venom F5, the race-built 2006 Mosler MT900 GT3 and the iconic 2000 Hot Wheels Deora II, these cars have been devised as the perfect contenders for the high-speed stunts and challenges offered by the extreme tracks of the Hot Wheels Park.
Here are the cars you can look forward to driving in Forza Horizon 5: Hot Wheels, all of which are #NewToForza:
2018 Chevrolet Hot Wheels COPO Camaro
In 1968, the first ever Hot Wheels debuted in the form of a Custom Camaro die-cast and in 2018, those muscle fumes were reignited to celebrate Hot Wheels’ 50th anniversary. This limited-edition Camaro pairs the iconic Hot Wheels lineage with the precision and power of the sixth-generation Camaro to create a full-scale, factory-built drag racer that can speed past anything on its path. It uses an LSX-based, fire-breathing Chevrolet V8 engine producing 580 horsepower at 8000 rpm and a Whipple Industries 109-mm supercharger. It also looks the part too, with a sizzling “Orange Crush” exterior paint to match the iconic glow of Hot Wheels tracks paired with a two-color stripe package and one-of-a-kind vinyl chromatic Hot Wheels logos. Those tires are also incredibly special too, as the COPO Camaro rocks Weld racing wheels and Hoosier drag slicks to deliver the perfect take-off. With twin wheelie bars and a rear drag chute, this is a muscle car that rockets through Speed Traps while retaining full stability! Only 69 of these Hot Wheels COPOs were ever produced so if you wanted to buy one, you had to register your interest. In Forza Horizon 5: Hot Wheels, there’s no need to concern yourself with production numbers as the COPO Camaro is yours to drive on a nexus of glowing distinctive tracks like no other.
2012 Hot Wheels Bad to the Blade
Extreme is likely the first word that comes to mind. After all, the Bad to the Blade – a car that looks like it was created in the future – serves up blistering speed and is inspired by a fighter jet and dragon combo. Designed by Hot Wheels’ Fraser Campbell, this Indy car concept was showcased in the Hot Wheels “Fearless at the 500” event to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Indy 500. It’s since been rewrapped in new graphics to honor the Hot Wheels 50th anniversary while Firestone tires and Hot Wheels rims complete the look. It features a 1000-cc four-cylinder turbocharged motorcycle engine while the wing and ground effect aerodynamics create 2646 lbs. of downforce – all to deliver a top speed of over 230mph on an inverted track. If you watched the *Hot Wheels for Real* online series, then you’ll recall how the Bad to the Blade defied gravity by driving upside down! Sounds like the perfect contender for Forza Horizon 5: Hot Wheels.
2013 Hot Wheels *Baja* Bone Shaker
This is the Bone Shaker reimagined to drive off the beaten path! Inspired by early 1970s trophy trucks, this highly modified off-roader is given a rugged look, bigger wheels and the perfect amount of suspension to leave behind every challenger in the dust and do so with a smile on its skull. Creator Abe Lugo fitted it with modern 4x4 overlander bull bars as well as tube bumpers with fog lights and designed the roof to operate as a spoiler – a throwback to the Big Oly Bronco. The chrome rear fenders assist with the dirt, gravel and mud that the *Baja* Bone Shaker is certain to scoop up, while the headlight claws found on the classic Bone Shaker have been adapted into front fender chrome fists and function as headlight stands. Lastly, there’s the unmissable skeleton-head headlight casings, which are certain to cause a fright or two, especially as *Baja* Bone Shaker emerges from the depths of an unsuspecting cloud of dust! Now it’s found a new home in the warm biomes and Baja tracks of Forza Horizon 5: Hot Wheels with its natural habitat being the Giant’s Canyon!
2000 Hot Wheels Deora II
With its slinky curves, an integrated spoiler and unique oval windows, the unconventional Deora II makes for a stylish and sleek upgrade over its original 1960s counterpart, which was based on a 1960s Ford station wagon. As one of the original sixteen Hot Wheels cars that debuted in 1968, the Deora remains a favorite of Hot Wheels enthusiasts across the world and in honor of Hot Wheels’ 35th anniversary in 2003, a full-scale concept car was created in homage to the groundbreaking spirit of bold originality embodied in the Deora. Hot Wheels teamed up with automotive designer Chip Foose and Five Axis to bring the car to life, which is when it was also inducted into the Hot Wheels Hall of Fame at the Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles, CA. With over 400 horsepower and a top speed of 150mph, the Deora II features a custom hand-built cab forward body designed by its creator Nathan Proch, and takes cues from the 1996 Ford Taurus station wagon. Its electric linear actuator opens the front door for access in or out of its futuristic interior, while the two surfboards harken back to the original car, which for a 2021 retooling were molded into the bodywork. It also has custom 24-inch wheels with Firestone tires, and you see that tonneau cover? It lifts to reveal a supercharged Cadillac Northstar engine, the savvy innerworkings that keep this Deora II rolling along without interruption.
2021 Hennessey Venom F5
With its goal of being the absolute fastest road car on earth, the Hennessey Venom F5 immediately sets the highest of expectations. As a tribute to 30 years of Hennessey, it’s only fair that it combines the best of speed and power in the ultimate driving package. Capable of 1,817 horsepower – and yes, you’ve read that correctly – at 8,000 rpm and 1,193 lb-ft of torque, the F5 is a monster. With predicted acceleration speeds of 0-168mph in under 10 seconds and 0-249mph in around 20 seconds with a top speed goal beyond 311mph, the F5, if it can reach those speeds, will in fact be the world’s fastest production car—an extraordinary feat, especially as it weighs 2,998 lbs. The F5 uses a Hennessey V8 twin-turbo engine, which it’s calling 'Fury' to push these unprecedented speeds. Aerodynamics, which as a first for Hennessey are paired with the car’s body, are being developed by expert racing driver John ‘Heinrocket’ Heinricy to ensure a world-class, revolutionary driving experience both on the road and track. Production is limited to 24 units and by August 2021, they were all sold out, so your best opportunity to get behind the wheel of the world’s fastest production car ever will be in Forza Horizon 5: Hot Wheels.
2019 Brabham BT62
To honor Brabham’s 70-year heritage in racing, the BT62 has been carefully designed for the driver who strives to challenge themselves as company founder Sir Jack Brabham did when he began his racing career in Australia in 1948. If you’re looking for a car that boosts your driving experience to the next level, then look no further and act fast, because only 70 of these BT62s will be produced with the first 35 adorned in liveries celebrating Brabham’s 35 Grand Prix winning cars. This mid-engine track car is powered by a Brabham 5.4-liter V8 engine capable of 700bhp and 492 ft-lb of torque. It’s perfectly optimized for performance, with aggressive aerodynamics delivering 2,645 lbs. of downforce. With the BT62, Brabham strived to enhance the behind the wheel experience, not control it. Therefore, it all comes down to the driver instead of the electronics. Its speed and power are maintained by you without any interference from the car’s software. If you’re confident, you can push it to its true limits – just as Australian Supercars race driver Luke Youlden did when he broke the closed-wheel lap record at Mount Panorama Circuit with a time of 1:58.68, eclipsing the fastest GT car by 0.621 seconds. After all, it’s dubbed “the world’s most track focused hypercar” and with the unprecedented speeds that are now possible in Forza Horizon 5 thanks to the new accelerative Speed Boosts found across Hot Wheels Park, there's no greater home to unleash the driving potential of Brabham’s BT62.
2006 Mosler MT900 GT3
If the Mosler MT900S is a Forza Horizon PR Stunt master, then you can only imagine the capabilities of the MT900 GT3 – especially once it touches the high-speed, interconnected tracks of Hot Wheels Park. This model takes everything that made the MT900 so great – a supercar that could compete against its top tier siblings and emerge on top – and adapt it for the track. In fact, this specific variant builds upon the race-ready MT900R to adhere to FIA GT3 regulations. Under the hood, it uses an LS7 V8 engine to output 520 horsepower at 5,900 rpm and can even produce 505 lb-ft of torque! So, the only question that remains is whether the MT900 will live up to the Mosler precedent by being the best of the best for Forza Horizon 5: Hot Wheels’ PR Stunts once it undergoes some lavish tuning and upgrades.
2020 SIERRA Cars #23 Yokohama ALPHA
Pikes Peak is considered one of the most challenging and dangerous rally courses in the world, yet it doesn’t compare to Mount Washington – the peak of demanding driving. For any driver, it’s a daunting hillclimb, but when Sierra Cars undertook the 2021 Climb to the Clouds, it did so with the goal of its new powerful, precision-focused and lightweight Alpha being the fastest two-wheel-drive car ever. Thanks to Sierra’s engineering expertise and the passion, skill and determination of their crew—O.P. Andersen, Cole Powelson and Mark Hermansen—the record was reset, and the Alpha brought home the title entering the sub-ten-minute club with 9:37.449. Being the most powerful Sierra vehicle ever, the Alpha features a turbocharged Suzuki Hayabusa boasting 450 horsepower with a top speed of 140mph. The Alpha produces a single ton of downforce – twice its own weight – using big carbon fiber wings and weighs just 1,100lbs. It achieves 0-60mph in 2.2 seconds and is geared for asphalt driving, capable of extreme levels of grip, power and speed to take on the toughest race in the world.
2018 SUBARU WRX STI ARX Supercar
Imagine 0-60mph in only two seconds. It sounds like a dream, but for this Subaru supercar, it’s a reality. Rallycross is a sport of gravel, jumps and sometimes bumper cars; it’s never going to be a smooth ride, and a car catering to competition must be built with these caveats in mind. With 600bhp and 680 lb-ft of torque, this Subaru WRX STI ARX Supercar is built with the underpinnings of rallycross across its entire design philosophy. Its four-cylinder, 2-liter Boxer engine is fitted with an ARX mandated 45mm Restrictor Garrett Motorsport Turbocharger managed by a Cosworth Pectel ECU, while the Reiger competition suspension and custom hydraulics ensure it can maintain peak performance through the gravel, high jumps and even the pavement. The masterclass of rallycross? You best believe it.
2019 Italdesign DaVinci Concept
Built to mark the 500th anniversary of Leonardo DaVinci’s passing, the Italdesign DaVinci is an all-electric concept grand tourer that pays homage to one of the greatest and most iconic Renaissance artists and inventors. It’s designed first and foremost to be premium with intricate styling and details throughout both the exterior and interior, as if it’s a work of art by DaVinci himself. Its electric motors drive all four wheels, though Italdesign has approached this as a modular car that allows various electric motors and batteries to be swapped in from different automakers. If a petrol-powered car is desired, then it’s even possible to swap out the inner workings for a more conventional drivetrain. In fact, Italdesign tried and tested this themselves with a 4.0-litre V8 prototype showcased at the 2019 Geneva Motor Show. While its overall aggressive looks and large gull-wing doors are certain to catch the attention of many, it’s the modularity provided by the DaVinci Concept that would certainly appeal most to esteemed car enthusiasts. If the DaVinci ever enters full production someday, which Italdesign says it could after a few small tweaks, then it’d certainly set a new bar for not only the constantly evolving electric vehicle market, but also the concept of car modularity and premium automotive design.
Get Ready to Blast Off to Horizon Hot Wheels Park !
Now is the time to ensure you’re ready to jump into Forza Horizon 5: Hot Wheels without any delay once it becomes available July 19 on Xbox, Windows and Steam. Players who own the Forza Horizon 5 Premium Add-ons Bundle, the Premium Edition, or Expansions Bundle already have their ticket to travel to Horizon Hot Wheels Park from day one – and you’re invited to join them.
Forza Horizon 5 Series 8 Update
Forza Horizon 5 Series 8 has arrived and with it comes a celebration of German Automotive Excellence! Starting today, May 26, you have four weeks through June 22 to get your hands on new German cars and cosmetics from the Festival Playlist.
Festival Playlist
Show your appreciation for German automotive engineering with these new clothing unlocks: • Germany Cap • Germany Tee • German Engineering Hoodie • German Race Helmet • German Race Gloves
Featuring a mix of new and returning cars, here are the rides you can look forward to driving in Forza Horizon 5 Series 8:
2021 Porsche 911 GT3 Earn 20 PTS during the Autumn “Storm” Season on the Series 8 Festival Playlist from June 2 – June 8.
Built to bleed pure racing technology into a production car more consistently than ever before, the new 911 GT3 is the seventh edition of Porsche’s high-performance sports car, developed in close collaboration with the German automaker’s in-house Motorsport division. Porsche took the double wishbone front axle layout and innovative aerodynamics from its successful GT race car, the 911 RSR and applied to its 2021 911 GT3 with a 503hp four-liter six-cylinder boxer engine and a drivetrain tried and tested in endurance racing. Faster than the previous 911 GT3 RS, this model can achieve near 200mph top speed and reaches 0-62 in just 3.4 seconds. It also lapped the Nürburgring-Nordschleife, considered the most challenging racecourse in the world and the manufacturer home of driving performance tests, in just 6:59.927 minutes – more than 17 seconds quicker than its predecessor. The Swan neck design rear wing creates enough downforce to keep you on the edge of your seat in every curve.
2015 Mercedes-AMG GT S Earn 20 PTS during the Winter “Dry” Season on the Series 8 Festival Playlist from June 9 – June 15.
When you first think of Mercedes-Benz, you may be drawn to the lavish luxury the brand is renowned for. But with the company’s recent dominance in Formula One, it’s clear Mercedes can do performance too. But what about both? Mercedes’ AMG GT S balances the two disciplines, with equal doses of F1-like speed and luxury. Under the AMG GT S’s sleek hood sits a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 producing more than 500 horsepower. That’s enough boosted motor to pull competitive laps at any racetrack and hit 193mph flat out, complimented by a leather-lined interior befit for autobahn blasts. Bordering on supercar, but still competing with other top models from Germany, the AMG GT S is exactly what you’d expect from Mercedes: the pinnacle of performance and luxury. Be ready to get the most out of this sophisticated German engineered machine.
2018 Audi RS 4 Avant Earn 20 PTS during the Spring “Hot” Season on the Series 8 Festival Playlist from June 16 – June 22.
Did you know the RS initials stand for “racing sport?” It’s used here to acknowledge that this is Audi’s most premium outing based on their A4 platform. That means the highest trim level, the fastest speeds and the most-sports-focused car they offer. Unveiled at the 2017 Frankfurt Motor Show, the B9 RS 4 Avant is powered by a 2.9 TFSI V6 twin-turbo engine producing 450hp and 443 lb-ft of torque. While this is the same power output as the previous B8 model, the extra torque delivered from its smaller displacement engine results in better fuel efficiency and faster acceleration. So, while the previous model achieved 0-60mph in 4.7 seconds, this one does it in just 4.1 seconds. What’s more, the B9 replaces the 7-speed dual-clutch S-Tronic transmission with an 8-speed 'Tiptronic' automatic transmission. As always, you’ll find the quattro all-wheel-drive system, because after all, the RS 4 series is renowned for pioneering some of Audi’s most innovative technology. People say Audi took the decision to make the RS 4 a beast, coming from the Audi 90 quattro IMSA GTO. Are you ready to hear the symphony of that glorious atmospheric V6?
Car Pass Calendar
Four new cars are coming to the Forza Horizon 5 Car Pass garage in Series 8. Not only are they all #NewToForza, but they also showcase the absolute best of German Automotive Excellence.
2020 BMW M8 Competition Coupe Available May 26 in the Forza Horizon 5 Car Pass.
The ultimate BMW car engineered for the driving enthusiast. Consider its 0-62mph acceleration speeds of just 3.2 seconds made possible by a high-revving 625 horsepower M TwinPower Turbo V8 engine. It’s monstrous in every conceivable way – an exceptional combination of dynamic flair, agility and precision. BMW achieved this by developing the car alongside its BMW M8 GTE endurance racer, fine tuning it at its Miramas and Arjeplog test centers while pushing its capabilities to the limit on the Nürburgring-Nordschleife and other racing circuits. Its top speed is 155mph, though this can be raised to 190mph thanks to BMW’s optional M Driver’s package adding tires rated for high speed to the car. With a peak torque of 553 lb-ft at 5,800 rpm, sophisticated cooling systems and innovative aerodynamics, the BMW M8 Competition Coupe is a car made for those who dare to go the extra mile.
2020 Audi RS 3 Sedan Available June 2 in the Forza Horizon 5 Car Pass.
Who knew incredible performance could be achieved in such a well refined package? With a 400-horsepower inline five-cylinder engine under the hood producing 368.8 lb-ft of torque, the latest Audi RS 3 Sedan is fast and sublime. Not only does it feature a distinctive iconic sound, but the car is capable of 0-62mph speeds in just 3.8 seconds with a top speed of 155mph. It is also the first ever Audi to include the RS torque splitter for greater dynamics and stability, variably distributing the car’s torque between the rear of the wheels. The German automaker has also given its RS 3 Sedan is a new sportier look with a widened body and a motorsport inspired exhaust system and cockpit display.
2018 Audi RS 5 Coupé Available June 9 in the Forza Horizon 5 Car Pass.
If you’re looking for a smooth, enjoyable and refined driving experience then look no further. Audi strikes gold with its 2018 RS 5 Coupé. Featuring a twin-turbocharged V6 producing 450 horsepower, 442.5 lb-ft of torque and a top speed of 174mph, you’ll certainly be going places. With high-precision RS sport suspension, the overall support and stability of the car is reinforced to reduce pitch and roll, while improving the overall handling of the vehicle. What’s more, the quattro drivetrain provides additional traction, dynamism and stability, as well as sport differential at the rear axle to actively distribute toque between the wheels. With sharp, precise looks and 0-62mph acceleration speeds in just 3.9 seconds, there’s never a reason to show up late while behind the wheel of this RS 5 Coupé.
1982 Volkswagen Pickup LX Available June 16 in the Forza Horizon 5 Car Pass.
Cast your mind back to the 1980s – an era of glitz and glamour and a staple for the automotive world. Cars from this timeline remain iconic to this day and there’s no greater throwback to a bygone decade than this Volkswagen Pickup LX, also named the Rabbit Pickup, the Caddy and the Golf Mk1 Caddy. That’s a lot of alternative titles, but it’s fitting for a vehicle with so many distinct options to choose from. While the “LX” variants sport unique trim levels, the VW Pickup offered a wide choice of various petrol and diesel engines depending on whether you were buying it in North America or Europe, and because the numbers naturally differ based on your spec, there are no consistent performance metrics. Luckily for you, Forza Horizon 5 has all the options you need to customize this compact pick-up truck to your liking, so you can make it as fast or economical as you please. The 1.7-liter engine was built for high fuel economy. It had a gear labeled E, for Economy.
Car Pass Vehicles
New cars will continue to become available for Car Pass holders every week through July 7. From that date, the Forza Horizon 5 Car Pass garage will be complete, and players will be able to redeem the full 42-car collection from the Car Pass menu at any Horizon Festival Outpost or Player House.
All players can continue to unlock new cars in Forza Horizon 5 through the weekly Festival Playlist. As always, we’ll share details about those reward opportunities in our monthly Series Update blogs.

Of course, it wouldn’t be a new Festival Playlist without new cars, and Ferrari are here to mark the occasion with some of their most iconic supercars. From returning classics to some of their latest, most innovative and #NewToForza cars, you don’t want to miss out. Here’s a look at the incredible Ferrari cars available to unlock during Series 7:
2020 Ferrari SF90 Stradale
Earn 80 PTS on the Series 7 Festival Playlist from April 28 – May 25.
Celebrating the 90th anniversary of the foundation of Scuderia Ferrari, the SF90 Stradale underscores the strong link between the Prancing Horse’s track and road cars while encapsulating the most advanced technologies developed in Maranello. It’s also the first Ferrari to feature PHEV architecture, which, for the record, stands for Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle. This allows the internal four-liter combustion engine, an evolution of the V8 found in the 488 Pista and F8 Tributo, to be integrated with three electric motors. The combined output is a sheer 986 horsepower at 8000 rpm with a maximum torque of 590 lb-ft at 6000 rpm. Those are extraordinary numbers, allowing the car to reach 62mph from standstill in 2.5 seconds, 124mph in 6.7 seconds and a top speed of 211 mph. It’s also the fastest Ferrari road car on the Italian manufacturer's own Fiorano Circuit, beating the LaFerrari by seven tenths of a second. With all of that considered, the SF90 Stradale perfectly demonstrates how Ferrari can so seamlessly transition the knowledge and skills it acquires from competing in global motorsports to its roadworthy production cars – and it does so with a future-forward design and truly innovative engineering.
1962 Ferrari 250 GT Berlinetta Lusso
Earn 20 PTS during the Summer “Wet” Season on the Series 7 Festival Playlist from April 28 – May 4.
The 250 GT Berlinetta Lusso is the type of car that cameras dream of. With unmistakable Pininfarina body styling that Scaglietti fashioned from steel and aluminum, every single segment of the Lusso is full of sumptuous detail. There’s that three-piece bumper that frames the egg-crate grill and cradles the turn signals; the profile that seamlessly integrates the front fenders through the doors before falling into a gracious curve into the Kamm tail panel. The Lusso was quick and nimble for its time yet built with enough refinement to please the most upscale of customers. Finally, let’s not forget its auditory delights. One listen of the symphony from the triple-Weber carbureted V12 cements the Lusso as one of Ferrari’s proudest achievements. A wonderful machine capable of 150 mph. The perfect balance of luxury and speed.
2014 Ferrari California T
Earn 20 PTS during the Autumn “Storm” Season on the Series 7 Festival Playlist from May 5 – May 11.
The Ferrari California was the Prancing Horse’s first V8-powered front-engine car. Replaced years later by the California T, the naturally aspirated V8 was swapped out in favor of a 3.9-liter turbocharged V8 engine capable of outputting 552 horsepower at 7500 rpm! It retains the front-engine design, as well as the 7-speed transmission and RWD drivetrain, and can reach 0-60mph in just 3.5 seconds. With updated styling found across both the exterior and interior of the car, grand touring is engraved throughout every facet of the California T – a convertible that ensures you have both the looks and performance to cruise anywhere, anytime. A distinguished Grand Tourer.
1992 Ferrari 512 TR
Earn 20 PTS during the Winter “Dry” Season on the Series 7 Festival Playlist from May 12 – May 18.
The 512 TR is an evolution of the Testarossa that graced thousands of car enthusiasts’ walls in poster form in the 1980s. The iconic shape, slightly refined during the transition to 512 TR form to achieve more comfort and better aerodynamics, maintaining the famous side strakes and wide stance that made the original a universal icon of Italian power—a true Testarossa. As an update to the pioneering Berlinetta Boxers of the 1970s, it is powered by a modified version of the BB’s mid-mounted flat-12 engine, displacing 5 liters and pumped up to 421 horsepower. Interestingly, the engine is closely related to Ferrari’s Colombo-designed V12s, flattened for use in the mid-engine cars. Cooling for the big, high-strung engine necessitated large radiators flanking the engine in the rear, fed cool air by the huge side scoops. It seems strange, but the Testarossa and its related successors are some of the most-produced Ferraris ever, considering that the chassis served the company over the span of three decades. While the 512 TR has staggering street performance, it is one of few Ferraris for which the track is not the best place to enjoy its charms—the TR instead loves a windy stretch of road from which to explore the wide torque band and sonorous tones of its substantial engine.
2020 Ferrari F8 Tributo
Earn 20 PTS during the Spring “Hot” Season on the Series 7 Festival Playlist from May 19 – May 25.
Step inside and get behind the wheel of a celebration of excellence. The Ferrari F8 Tributo elevates the Prancing Horse’s classic two-seater Berlinetta design to new highlights, paying homage to the most powerful V8 in Ferrari history, a 3.9-liter twin-turbocharged engine as seen in the 488 Pista, outputting 710 horses at 7000 rpm and 568 lb-ft of torque at 3250 rpm. With roots and heritage in the motorsport world, the renowned Italian manufacturer has infused advanced aerodynamics into the F8 to create a mid-rear-engined Berlinetta with best-in-class performance. It utilizes the 488 Challenge’s turbo rev sensors to maximize turbocharger efficiency while new software features, such as evolved iterations of Ferrari’s own traction-and-stability control programs, pave way for the most engaging and approachable supercar driving experience. With clean and decisive styling, the F8 Tributo celebrates Berlinetta heritage and accelerates it to powerful new heights.
Car Pass Calendar
Four new cars are ready to enter the garages of Forza Horizon 5 Car Pass holders in Series 7. With a little something for everyone, here are the rides you can look forward to driving over the next four weeks – and best of all, they’re all #NewToForza:
2003 Ford F-150 SVT Lightning
Available April 28 in the Forza Horizon 5 Car Pass.
The SVT Lightning is an iconic variant of the Ford F-150 that inaugurated the high-performance segment of pick-ups. It was produced as a rear-wheel-drive regular cab with a payload of 1350 pounds. Impressively, the pickup truck is capable of 380 horsepower at 450 lb-ft of torque thanks to its 5.4-liter 2V Triton Supercharged Intercooled V8 engine. It’s also fitted with a four-speed Ford 4R100 overdrive automatic transmission and features heavy duty front and rear shocks. Furthermore, it’s considerably quieter than its competing counterparts of the time. These improvements all combine to deliver a pickup truck that’s more like a car in function, with all the benefits of the former. Back in the early 2000s, this truly was the best of both worlds. Perhaps you’d even call it a luxury.
2014 Forsberg Racing Nissan 'SafariZ' 370Z Safari Rally Tribute
Available May 5 in the Forza Horizon 5 Car Pass.
When Chris Forsberg, a self-taught three-time Formula Drift World Champion, teamed up with Broken Motorsports to create a modern-day tribute to the 1971 East African Safari Rally overall winning Datsun 240Z, the result was something truly special. Forsberg Racing’s Nissan 'SafariZ' 370Z features aesthetics that pay homage to the original rally car – it even includes some of the original sponsor decals. While this project car is rally ready and could compete at any time, it was purposefully built to output 215 horsepower because the excess horsepower would leave it just fighting for traction in the dirt. What it might lack in raw horsepower, however, it more than makes up for in functionality and aesthetics with styling cues that harken back to that 1970s rally monster for the ultimate dose of nostalgia.
2019 Toyota Tacoma TRD Pro
Available May 12 in the Forza Horizon 5 Car Pass.
Toyota has built some of the greatest off-roaders fully conceived, with the world’s most dangerous and unforgiving terrain in mind – and its 2019 refresh of the Tacoma TRD Pro is no exception. It’s got everything you need to bring confidence to every adventure you undertake. Powered by a 3.5-liter V6 engine capable of 278 horsepower at 6000 rpm and 265 lb-ft of torque, with a six-speed manual transmission, you have all the power needed to get over obstacles. The Toyota Tacoma TRD Pro can tow up to 6800 lbs. or carry a payload of up to 1440 lbs, so trust us when we say it’s as tough and rugged as it looks! Oh, and about that snorkel – it's officially named a TRD Desert Air Intake. It pulls in clean air from far above the fender line to protect the engine internals from dirt and contaminants – ensuring the engine can breathe nicely and continue to run strong for years and years – the durability that Toyota engines are known for.
2008 Dodge Magnum SRT8
Available May 19 in the Forza Horizon 5 Car Pass.
In 2008, the Dodge Magnum received a facelift – donning a new bright red paint scheme and a refreshed interior. With a new front fascia sporting aggressively squared headlights and an updated hood scoop to match, this version would be the last of the high-performance SRT8 series cars. In fact, it would be the final Dodge Magnum manufactured and released ahead of Chrysler’s decision to discontinue the line due to lower sales. Production ended on March 28, 2008. Despite this, the SRT8 is a car capable of a very impressive 425 horsepower thanks to its 6.1-liter Hemi engine and reaches 0-60mph in 5.1 seconds and 0-100mph in 11.7 seconds, a few tenths quicker than the Cayman S from the same year. Now it’s your turn to relive the Magnum’s glory days and give this iconic car the send-off it always deserved.
