Track Days Include Off-Road, and We Have a Porsche for That Too.
Not all tracks are created equally; some of them are filled with dirt and stuff that’s, well, not tarmac. However, you will be pleased to know that your off-roading track day experience won’t be limited to regular roads, as the 2023 Porsche 911 Rallye is now available to unlock until November 21.
Rally isn’t only in this car’s name; you can also find traces of what this 911 was meant to do all over its body. To start, the Rallye’s suspension has been lifted by 2 inches, and an extra 1.2 inches can be added whenever needed. Look at this Porsche’s shoes, and you’ll find a set of Pirelli Scorpion tires built to be used on any terrain.
With the same 3.0-liter flat-six engine that you can find inside a Carrera GTS, the Rallye can reach 100 kph in just over 3 seconds.
With a fantastic engine, all-wheel drive, and a complete off-road package, the Rallye is ready to take on any road imaginable and become a champion.

Your First Partner for the Ideal Track Day Has Arrived.
Your new best friend for track days is available to unlock. Gather 20 PTS on the Festival Playlist until November 14 to get the 2023 Porsche 911 GT3 RS’s engine running!
The GT3 RS is everything you love about a 911 but kicked up a notch (or maybe two). Packed with a 4-liter six-cylinder engine, it can produce 518 bhp and 342 lb-ft, allowing it to fly to 100 kph in almost 3 seconds.
Engineers behind this project brought ideas from F1 and applied them to this car, which led to improvements such as the 88 lbs of downforce this car makes, as well as the aerodynamic improvements in its body kit and adjustable wing.
Made from lightweight materials from front to back, this Porsche was designed to obliterate tracks with you at the wheel.
If you have any suggestions to make the Forza Horizon 5 experience better than it has been, visit our Suggestions Hub and let us know!
More race-y rewards are coming for the next four weeks! Which one are you looking forward to the most?

Coming to your Garage this Month!
Festival Playlist
A track day is not a track day without a speedy companion to rush through corners in, or to floor its gas pedal on straights.
This time, the Festival Playlist reward cars feature a collection of some of the finest, modern Porsches you are going to want to unlock and take on a beautiful tour of every track available at the Horizon Festival.
2023 Porsche 911 GT3 RS
Earn 20 PTS during Week 1 “Summer” Season on the Horizon Track Day Festival Playlist. Available from November 7 until November 14.
The best bits of the 911 cranked up to 11 create a performance focused version of one of the world’s favorite GT racers: the 2023 Porsche 911 GT3 RS, a superb partner for any track day.
The highly exclusive GT3 RS comes with a 4-liter six-cylinder engine that produces 518 bhp and reaches 100 kph in just beyond 3 seconds. Porsche’s engineering masterminds brought ideas birthed in F1 and other racing divisions into the GT3 RS as seen on the adjustable rear wing and turbo body that allows maximum airflow and 88 pounds more downforce.
Every material found in this car, including the windows, is lightweight and its design with dynamic aerodynamics makes the most out of an already great engine. From its conception, the GT3 RS was built to become the king of the track.
2023 Porsche 911 Rallye
Earn 20 PTS during Week 2 “Autumn” Season on the Horizon Track Day Festival Playlist. Available from November 14 until November 21.
Who said tracks were tarmac only? Not the 2023 Porsche 911 Rallye. This car has all the bits and pieces that make 911s great, and an amazing rally modification package.
The rally modifications start with a new suspension that has been lifted around 2 inches and can be lifted 1.2 more if needed. New Pirelli Scorpion tires were fitted into the Rallye to improve performance on rough terrain and to resist punctures among other inconveniences that arise with off roading adventures.
According to Porsche, this car can reach 100 kph in just over 3 seconds and has a top speed of 241 kph all thanks to a mighty twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter flat-six engine:, the same one you can find on a Carrera GTS.
Nothing makes a track day better than spending quality time with our friend dirt. Unlock the 911 Rallye and take on a wildly different concept of a track!
2023 Porsche 911 GT3 R
Earn 20 PTS during Week 3 “Winter” Season on the Horizon Track Day Festival Playlist. Available from November 21 until November 28.
Who’s ready for some endurance racing? What better way to spend a track day than going round and round the Oval Track Stadium in a car designed to be taken to the limit: the 2023 Porsche 911 GT3 R.
The engine fitted in this car had a growth spurt over the summer and is now a 4.2-liter flat-six, direct injection engine that can put out 565 bhp. To make the most of this engine, Porsche made the car lighter using carbon fiber panels and an aluminum-steel body,; and improved its handling with fifth-generation ABS software, an elevated underbody, and traction control system upgrades.
The GT3 R is not only here to run, but also here to steal the gold, whatever it takes.
2023 Porsche 911 Turbo S
Complete Seasonal Championship “50 Years of Porsche 911 Turbo” during Week 4 “Spring” Season on the Horizon Track Day Festival Playlist. Available from November 28 until December 5
The “Turbo” part in the 2023 Porsche 911 Turbo S’s name is not there just for show. This car can take down a quarter-mile race in just 9.9 seconds, all thanks to a 3.7-liter flat-six engine that can produce 640 horsepower and a fantastic all-wheel drive system that puts every horse to work on each wheel of the car.
As we all know, performance isn’t just about horsepower (although that part is really fun) it is also how good a car can handle around corners, which the Turbo S can do fantastically. Its lower chassis, dampers, and helper springs make driving this car through corners an experience of its own.
It might be packed to the brim with nice seats, connectivity, and more comfort options on its inside, but do not judge this car wrongly, or you might stare at its rear-lights all day on the track.
What’s Next?

What’s Next?
The Horizon Festival welcomes the holiday season with Stadium decorations, new reward cars and clothing items, and a special showcase remix!
A Car as Rad as the 90s, Unlock the 1996 SUBARU SVX
The 90s came and took wrote down “extreme” in their description, and Subaru took of note of that. To match the vibe of era they made the 1996 SUBARU SVX, a car that could (and did) run from Seattle all the way to the Arctic Circle.
Right of the bat is the SVX’s unique rood: The almost one-piece glass canopy built on top of this car was designed after aircrafts, which resulted in the car having different sections of windows.
The SVX came with a 3.3-liter straight six engine that put 231 horsepower into all wheels thanks to its AWD system. All the aerodynamic design created a car that had a drag coefficient of 2.9, pretty close to hypercars of the era.
Unlock a sample of the raddest era of all from October 31 until November 7.

Let's ¡GO! - Horizon Track Day
Get a preview of everything coming to Forza Horizon 5 on our next update, Horizon Track Day, on November 1.
Premium Car, Premium Interior: Welcome the Lagonda to your Garage
Just like some of your favorite consoles of the era, Aston Martin released their second four-door saloon and went with the polygon look for the 1990 Aston Martin Lagonda.
The Lagonda is just as famous for its inside as it is for its outside. While piloting this car you’ll find yourself surounded by premium leather and the latest in 90s technology including digital screens and displays.
High-quality materials only don’t make a thrilling ride. That part’s brought to you by the Lagonda’s hefty 5.3-liter V8 that produces 285hp and 320lb-ft of torque.
Unlock the polygonal, luxury tank that is the Lagonda for 20 PTS on the Festival Playlist from October 24 until October 31.
Let us know what you’d like to see in Forza Horizon 5 in the future. Send your ideas and suggestions to our team through the Suggestions Hub.

Today on Car Improvement: Unlock and Modify a Mitsubishi FTO!
An FTO taken to the max, the 1998 Mitsubishi FTO GP Version R is available as the Autumn reward car from October 17 until October 24.
Starting with the engine, the Version R’s 2.0-liter V6 included MIVEC technology to optimize performance and responsiveness. Mitsubishi also got their hands dirty working on the FTO’s handling by adding a limited-slip differential and sport-tuned suspension.
The Japanese company knows loves comes through the eyes first, so they equipped the Version R with a new body kit that not only looked stunning, but it was also a major aerodynamic improvement.
To top it all off, Version R decals were added in panels and the rear wing to make sure people know what you are driving.
Shoot your suggestions to make Forza Horizon 5 the best experience for you at our Suggestions Hub.

90s Extravagance Car-sonified: Unlock the 1997 Toyota Soarer 2.5 GT-T
The 1997 Toyota Soarer 2.5 GT-T has the futuristic feel of 1990s technology, and the power of a street racer put into one.
Toyota’s move on the sports/luxury front came equipped with an EMV touchscreen (guaranteed to make you the coolest among your friends) and was one of the first cars to ever include an integrated satellite navigation system.
The totally radical features of this car do not stop at its electronic gear, the Soarer has algo got a powerful heart under its hood in the shape of a 1JZ-GTE 2.6-liter engine that produces 278 bhp.
Does the fun stop there? AS IF! The Soarer proudly presents an Origin Lab front bumper, rear bumper, side skirts and Forza front bumper and rear wing to customize to your liking.
Unlock this car from October 10 until October 17.

Up to ten winning liveries will be featured in game for six months.
The individual winners will receive a gift a car of the player’s choice, not including DLC or Accolade-only cars. Exclusives and Hard-to-Find cars can be chosen.
