Forza Horizon 6 British Automotive Cars: Full List and Unlocks

Forza Horizon 6 ‘s British Automotive Series is now in its Winter season, with the 2006 Vauxhall Astra VXR available as the current 20-point Festival Playlist reward and the 2016 Bentley Bentayga at 40 points. The 1998 Renault Sport Spider has also joined the Car Pass, while the final week will bring the returning Lotus Esprit V8, Lotus Emira and the new-to-Horizon Porsche 911 Carrera ‘Luftauto 002’.

Playground Games launched the British Automotive update on September 7, with the Festival Playlist beginning on September 10 at 14:30 UTC and continuing until October 8. The complete Series introduces three new-to-Horizon Festival Playlist cars and four additional Car Pass additions.

The update also permanently added Drift Attack at Shimanoyama Circuit, a British Automotive Takeover near the Horizon Stadium and the 1990 Jaguar XJ-S Forza Edition as a separate progression reward.

Full details were originally confirmed through the official British Automotive announcement.

What you can unlock right now in British Automotive

The current Winter season runs from September 24 until October 1. Its headline new-to-Horizon reward is the 2006 Vauxhall Astra VXR, unlocked by earning 20 Festival Playlist points during the week.

The front-wheel-drive hot hatch produces 236 hp and 236 lb-ft from its turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine and enters Forza Horizon 6 at B 512. At 40 points, players can also obtain the 2016 Bentley Bentayga, normally one of the game’s Wheelspin-exclusive vehicles.

The Series-wide rewards remain active until October 8. The 2025 Bentley Continental GT Speed requires 80 points accumulated across British Automotive, while the 2019 Aston Martin Valhalla Concept Car is the 160-point Series reward.

Car Pass owners can also now access the 1998 Renault Sport Spider, which became available on September 24. The lightweight roadster uses a naturally aspirated 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine producing 145 hp and 137 lb-ft, with rear-wheel drive and a stock B 508 rating.

Three new cars join the British Automotive Festival Playlist

The headline Festival Playlist addition is the 2025 Bentley Continental GT Speed, which requires 80 points accumulated across the complete British Automotive Series between September 10 and October 8.

The latest Continental uses a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 hybrid powertrain producing 771 hp and 737 lb-ft of torque. It enters Forza Horizon 6 as an AWD A 699 car and represents the newest generation of Bentley’s long-running grand tourer.

Unlike the weekly reward cars, players have the full four-week Series to accumulate the required 80 points.

The second new-to-Horizon car was the 2019 Ginetta G40 Junior, available during the Summer season from September 10 to September 17 for 20 Festival Playlist points. The lightweight rear-wheel-drive racer produces 100 hp and 103 lb-ft from its 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine and starts in B 560.

Originally developed for the Ginetta Junior Championship, the G40 represents a very different type of British performance car from the much more powerful Bentley. Its original Festival Playlist window has now ended.

The third newcomer is the 2006 Vauxhall Astra VXR, currently available during the Winter season from September 24 to October 1.

Again, the requirement is 20 Festival Playlist points. Its 236-hp turbocharged engine drives the front wheels, making the Astra one of the more accessible additions in a Series otherwise filled with high-performance GT cars and sports cars.

Forza Horizon 6 British Automotive reward cars

British Automotive contains 10 Festival Playlist reward cars in total. Three are new to Horizon, while the rest combine returning cars, existing vehicles and normally Wheelspin-exclusive models.

British Automotive Festival Playlist dates and requirements are based on Playground Games’ official Series 5 schedule.

The first two weekly seasons have now ended, meaning the Ginetta G40 Junior, McLaren 620R, Jaguar XKR-S GT and MINI JCW GP can no longer be earned through their original British Automotive seasonal windows.

The final Spring season begins on October 1. The 2002 Lotus Esprit V8 will be available for 20 points, with the 2023 Lotus Emira following at 40 points.

British Automotive also uses normally rare vehicles as Playlist rewards. The Aston Martin Valhalla Concept and Bentley Bentayga are Wheelspin-exclusive cars outside their Series appearances, giving players another opportunity to add them to their collections.

Three Car Pass cars are already available, with one still to come

The Festival Playlist cars are only part of the British Automotive update. Four additional new-to-Horizon vehicles are being released through the Forza Horizon 6 Car Pass, with one becoming available each Thursday.

The first was the 2025 McLaren W1, released on September 10.

McLaren’s hybrid flagship produces 1,258 hp and 987 lb-ft from its 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 hybrid powertrain. It enters the game as an R 918 rear-wheel-drive car and also introduced advanced paint options that allow individual exterior components to be customized separately.

The 2023 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon 170 followed on September 17.

Its supercharged 6.2-liter V8 produces 1,025 hp and 945 lb-ft, making it an obvious candidate for Forza Horizon 6’s Drag Meets. Despite its extreme real-world performance, the stock car begins at A 683, leaving substantial headroom for upgrades.

The 1998 Renault Sport Spider is the latest Car Pass release and became available on September 24. The lightweight RWD sports car produces 145 hp and 137 lb-ft from its naturally aspirated 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine and enters the game at B 508.

The final British Automotive Car Pass addition is the 1987 Porsche 911 Carrera Coupe ‘Luftauto 002’, scheduled for October 1. This modified 911 uses an off-road-focused chassis, revised suspension and KW Competition coilovers, with 250 hp and 232 lb-ft sent to the rear wheels.

British Automotive Car Pass release dates

The Car Pass is included with the Deluxe and Premium editions of Forza Horizon 6 as well as the Premium Upgrade. It can also be purchased separately by Standard Edition players and those accessing the game through Game Pass Ultimate or PC Game Pass.

Forza Horizon 6’s complete Car Pass contains 30 cars, released individually over time. British Automotive contributes four of those cars, all of which are new to the Horizon series.

Drift Attack is now a permanent Forza Horizon 6 feature

British Automotive did more than add cars. The update introduced Drift Attack as a permanent activity at Shimanoyama Circuit, combining the open-world accessibility of Drift Zones with a full circuit leaderboard format.

Players can repeatedly lap the course while building drift scores, with dedicated Clipping Zones providing additional scoring opportunities. Drift Attack also supports Convoy and in-world leaderboards and becomes accessible through the Festival Campaign after obtaining the Yellow Wristband.

Completing the associated Collection Journal progression unlocks a Drift Attack racesuit and helmet as well as the 1990 Jaguar XJ-S Forza Edition. A standard XJ-S has also been permanently added to the Autoshow.

The British Automotive Takeover at the Aftermarket dealership near Horizon Stadium remains another part of the Series, offering a rotating selection of British vehicles and opportunities to test drive the current 20-point seasonal reward.

British Automotive ends October 8, then Horizon Meets begins

British Automotive runs until October 8, leaving one final seasonal change on October 1. That week will introduce the Lotus Esprit V8 and Lotus Emira rewards alongside the Porsche 911 Carrera ‘Luftauto 002’ Car Pass release.

After that, Forza Horizon 6 moves into Horizon Meets for its October Series Update.

Playground Games has already confirmed that Horizon Meets will include a temporary 7-Eleven Konbini Evolving World location, a permanent EventLab Content Pack, additional new-to-Horizon cars and new profile Badges. The complete car lineup and Festival Playlist have not yet been revealed.

For players still working through British Automotive, the immediate priorities are the Vauxhall Astra VXR and Bentley Bentayga before September 24’s Winter season ends on October 1, followed by the final Lotus rewards and Luftauto 002 before the entire Series concludes on October 8.

Across the complete Series, British Automotive delivers three new-to-Horizon Festival Playlist cars, four new Car Pass cars, 10 Playlist reward cars and the permanent Drift Attack activity, making it one of Forza Horizon 6’s more substantial post-launch updates so far.

See you on the track!
