Forza Horizon 6 Fastest Cars – Top 10 Fastest Cars in FH6

This guide ranks the ten fastest cars currently in Forza Horizon 6 by verified peak top speed. Every entry has been tested on the long, straight Event Lab top-speed track (share code 354 311 751), tuned for maximum velocity rather than handling, and cross-referenced against multiple community top-speed runs.

Each car entry below includes its tuned top speed, drivetrain, how to unlock it, and a verified community tune-share code, if available. For a broader context on car selection beyond pure top speed, see the best cars in Forza Horizon 6 guide.

Top 10 Fastest Cars in Forza Horizon 6

The table below ranks every car by its verified peak top speed in mph. All speeds were achieved with maxed performance upgrades, rally suspension, slick tires, and minimal aero. The AE86 Forza Edition entry uses the community Travis tune that brought the car to the top speed leaderboards.

1. Toyota Trueno AE86 GT Apex Forza Edition (1985)

The Toyota Trueno AE86 GT Apex Forza Edition is the fastest car in Forza Horizon 6, hitting 324 mph in a controllable open world run and 325 mph in a flat-out Event Lab attempt. With Travis’s community tune installed, the car runs a 2JZ engine swap, all-wheel drive, single race turbo with anti-lag, rally suspension, slicks, and zero aero. The result is a 1,599-horsepower, 1,800-pound projectile that hits its peak in fifth gear.

Personally, the AE86 was the last car I expected to see at the top of this list. It is an iconic Japanese hatchback and very much the poster child for the Japan-set Forza Horizon 6, but it looks absolutely nothing like a 324 mph hypercar. Seeing it dethrone the Koenigseggs and the Venom F5 is one of the funnier upsets in Horizon history.

This Forza Edition variant is awarded through the Collection Journal rather than purchased. Players need to complete any 10 sections in Discover Japan, and the fastest path is to complete them in Master Explorer. The full unlock route is broken down in the how to unlock the AE86 Forza Edition guide. This is one of the hardest-to-obtain cars in the game.

2. Nissan GT-R Black Edition R35 Forza Edition (2012)

The Nissan GT-R Black Edition R35 Forza Edition is the most consistent 300 mph club entry in Forza Horizon 6, peaking at 307 mph with a drag-focused tune. It runs a 3,000-horsepower build through all-wheel drive, which makes it the easiest top-speed car to launch and reach max velocity in a straight line.

It also doubles as the fastest drag car in the game outright, with the quickest verified quarter-mile times on the open drag leaderboards. The Forza Edition variant is won through Wheelspins, so unlocking it comes down to how many Wheelspins the player has banked.

3. Hennessey Venom F5 (2021)

The Hennessey Venom F5 reaches 306 mph in Forza Horizon 6, holding onto the top three despite being dethroned from its previous Forza Horizon 5 second-place finish. The car makes 1,800 horsepower in a 2,700-pound rear-wheel-drive package, so it builds to peak speed slightly slower than the GT-R but maintains it well once there.

It is available directly from the Auto Show for around 1.9 million credits, making it one of the easier 300-mph cars to own without grinding for Wheelspins. Players short on credits can speed up the purchase with the FH6 money farm guide.

4. Koenigsegg Gemera (2024)

The Koenigsegg Gemera is the newest entry on this list, added to Forza Horizon 6 on 05/28/2026 as a paid Car Pass release. The Gemera is a four-seat Mega-GT with all-wheel drive and a hybrid powertrain, and once fully upgraded, it slots into the top four for peak top speed in the game.

Because the car is Car Pass exclusive, it is not available through Wheelspins, the Auto Show, or the Festival Playlist. Players need either the Forza Horizon 6 Premium Edition or the standalone Car Pass add-on to own it. This is a paid car only, from Car Pass ($29.99) unless you buy it from other players using Credits.

Its all-wheel-drive layout makes it considerably more drivable than the rear-wheel-drive Venom F5 sitting just above it, so it is often the smarter pick for players who want consistent runs without having to wrestle a car through its top gears.

5. Mazda MX-5 Miata Forza Edition (1994)

The Mental Mazda MX-5 Miata Forza Edition reaches 297 mph in top speed trim and is widely considered the best all-around Forza Edition car in the game. The same tune that hits 297 mph is also one of the strongest drag setups, making this MX-5 a rare double threat across two different competitive disciplines.

The car was teased before launch as the fastest car in early Forza Horizon 6, only to be eclipsed once players found stronger setups for the GT-R, Venom F5, and AE86 Forza Edition. The full unlock walkthrough lives in the how to unlock the MX-5 Forza Edition guide.

6. Porsche 917 LH Forza Edition (1970)

The 1970 Porsche 917 LH Forza Edition hits 294 mph, narrowly edging out the Koenigsegg Jesko on raw top speed. With its long-tail bodywork and lightweight chassis, it has one of the better drag coefficients in the game, which helps it carry speed in higher gears.

This Forza Edition variant is won through Wheelspins, the standard acquisition pathway for FE cars in Forza Horizon 6.

7. Lotus Evija Forza Edition (2020)

The 2020 Lotus Evija Forza Edition ties the Porsche 917 at 294 mph, with the difference between them coming down to launch consistency rather than peak speed. The Evija is all-wheel drive, which gives it a slight edge in keeping a clean line at very high speeds, especially on rougher sections of highway.

This is another paid car, available through the DLC ‘VIP Membership’ for $19.99, or free with the Forza Horizon 6 Premium Edition.

8. Koenigsegg Jesko (2020)

The 2020 Koenigsegg Jesko peaks around 287 to 293 mph in Forza Horizon 6, depending on tune and test conditions, a significant drop from its Forza Horizon 5 reign at 312 mph. Playground Games applied a heavy aero and drag adjustment to the Jesko at launch, pulling it out of the top three for the first time in two Horizon titles.

Despite the nerf, it remains one of the most stable 290 mph cars on the road, and it still rewards players who want a more drivable hypercar instead of a death-trap top speed missile. The Jesko can be won through Wheelspins or bought directly from the Auto Show for 3.5 million credits.

9. Ultima Evolution Coupe (2015)

The Ultima Evolution Coupe approaches 290 mph with the TVR 7.7-liter V12 swap, no rear wing, and aggressive weight reduction. The catch is handling, since stripping aero off a mid-engine track car turns it into one of the twitchiest things in the game above 250 mph.

Multiple top-speed testers have crashed before fully validating its theoretical peak, with most runs ending at a wall near 290 mph. The car is available at the Auto Show, but it earns its place on this list more for raw power output than for reliable top-speed runs.

10. Wuling Sunshine Forza Edition (2020)

The 2020 Wuling Sunshine Forza Edition is the surprise entry on this list, taking the tenth spot ahead of dozens of more conventional hypercars. As a tiny utility van with a maxed-out engine swap and minimal frontal area, it benefits from the same low-drag low-grip formula that pushed the AE86 to the top.

This Forza Edition variant is won through Wheelspins and is one of the more comedic top speed builds in the community, mostly because watching a Chinese microvan crack 280 mph never stops being funny.

Fastest Cars Across the Forza Horizon Series

For context on just how absurd the AE86 Forza Edition’s 324 mph top speed is, here is how it compares against every previous Forza Horizon title. The AE86 Forza Edition is the first car in Horizon history to break the 320 mph ceiling without a community workaround.

Top Speed Test Event Codes

The community uses two main Event Lab tracks for verifying top speeds. Both are flat, long, and free of AI traffic, which is the only way to reliably measure peak velocity in the open world.
