Forza Horizon 6 Series 5 is expected to launch on September 10, 2026. Series 4 patch notes have already revealed Series 5 theme British cars.
This theme is highly anticipated because when you think of British cars, classic brands like Aston Martin, McLaren, Bentley, Jaguar, and Lotus immediately come to mind. For Forza Horizon 6, these brands already offer a rich selection of models.
Based on the existing Forza Horizon lineup and models already featured in FH5, the following models are among the most noteworthy candidates:
Aston Martin
Among the existing Forza Horizon models, Aston Martin is undoubtedly one of the most promising brands. This brand represents British luxury sports car culture, and several of its models have already appeared in FH5, making it the best choice for the development team to quickly add British cars to Series 5 lineup.
Among the most anticipated models are Aston Martin DB5, Aston Martin Lagonda, and Aston Martin V12 Vantage. The greatest value of these three models lies not only in brand recognition but also in their ability to span completely different automotive eras.
DB5 represents classic British GTs, Lagonda boasts a unique 80s and 90s luxury sedan design, while V12 Vantage is closer to a modern high-performance sports car. If these models do return, we will use Forza Horizon 6 Credits to create a more complete picture of Aston Martin's development.
Bentley
Bentley is another brand that's hard to ignore in Forza Horizon 6 British Cars lineup. Compared to Aston Martin's focus on GTs and sports cars, Bentley better embodies the combination of luxury, size, and power in British automotive culture.
Bentley Turbo R and 2021 Bentley Flying Spur are particularly noteworthy candidates for return. Turbo R is large and heavy, while retaining the traditional Bentley luxury sedan's character. Flying Spur is more modern, offering enhanced performance besides its luxurious feel.
Jaguar
On Jaguar front, a highly anticipated option is 2020 Jaguar F-Type SVR. This car is noticeably younger than classic British sedans, boasting a very distinctive sporty design, and its exhaust note and driving feel are highly recognizable.
If FH6 Series 5 wants to add a modern performance car, F-Type SVR would be a very suitable candidate. It would complement the modern sports car segment of British Cars' lineup and allow Jaguar to move beyond its traditional image as just an old model or luxury sedan.
Lotus
Compared to Aston Martin, Bentley, and Jaguar, Lotus may not have as many models, but its role in British automotive lineup is more unique. Of particular note is 1980 Lotus Esprit Turbo. This model previously appeared in Forza Horizon 5.
Esprit Turbo's most distinctive feature isn't just its performance figures, but rather its embodiment of Lotus's purer lightweight sports car philosophy. Introducing such a classic model into FH6 adds more retro sports car elements to British Cars lineup.
Ascari
Besides well-known brands like Aston Martin, Bentley, and Jaguar, some relatively niche British brands might be surprises in FH6 Series 5. 2012 Ascari KZ1R is one such notable example.
While Ascari's global brand recognition isn't high, KZ1R has already garnered some recognition among enthusiasts in FH5 lineup. This car itself boasts a very distinctive appearance and a unique driving experience, giving us a glimpse into a less mainstream side of British automotive industry.
MG
MG is another brand that cannot be overlooked in British Cars category. Worth noting are 2023 MG7 and 2023 MG Cyberster.
MG's brand background is relatively unique, boasting a deep British automotive history while also maintaining close ties with Chinese automotive industry. Within FH series, it remains classified as a British brand, making MG a suitable entry point if Series 5 aims to showcase the evolution of modern British cars.
MG7 leans towards a modern sports sedan, while Cyberster represents MG's direction towards a pure electric sports car. Cyberster, in particular, differs significantly from the traditional British sports cars that FH6 enthusiasts might associate with it, potentially leading to some debate regarding its universal appeal.
Morgan
2019 Morgan Aero GT represents a completely different British automotive style. Compared to modern supercars like McLaren and Aston Martin, which emphasize performance and aerodynamics, Morgan models focus more on handcrafted manufacturing, retro design, and a unique driving experience.
Aero GT's appearance is difficult to confuse with ordinary supercars; this uniqueness is its greatest value. If FH6 Series 5 wants to showcase a side of British Cars that differs from mainstream luxury brands and supercars, then Morgan would be a very suitable choice.
Peel
If you were to choose an alternative model from all the candidates that best fits British Cars theme, then 1965 Peel Trident would undoubtedly be worth paying close attention to.
FH6 already has Peel P50, so adding the closely related Trident not only fits British Cars theme but also further completes the very special Peel model series. Compared to ordinary sports cars and supercars, Trident's biggest advantage is obviously not speed, but its extremely unique size, styling, and historical background.
It might not be your first choice when chasing lap times, but that doesn't mean it lacks value. Forza Horizon series has always been adept at using cars that don't look like race cars to generate buzz, and Peel Trident itself has a high degree of recognizability.
Forza Horizon 6 Series 5 British Cars theme offers a very wide selection of vehicles. If the update includes classic models, modern performance cars, and a few niche British vehicles, it could be a very distinctive addition to FH6 lineup. For collectors who enjoy different styles of cars, the full Series 5 lineup is definitely something to look forward to.
