Forza Horizon 5 News

Welcome maximum power to your garage with the 2011 Koenigsegg Agera, a speed monster capable of producing astounding amounts of power.

The Agera’s mighty 5.0-liter, twin turbo V8 engine can produce 960 bhp and take this car from 0 – 100 kmh in just 3 seconds. To make this car as agile as possible, Koenigsegg’s team designed this car to be as wide in the front as it is in the back to improve balance when cornering. They also equipped the Agera with one of the best TCS made at the time.

This car is filled with aerodynamic improvements all over its body such as the Venturi tunnels on its rear, the adaptable wing, and the flat underside of its chassis.

If you're looking forward to booting up Forza Horizon 5 on the PS5, there's one thing you should keep in mind. Even though you're playing the game comfortably on your Sony console, a Microsoft account will still be required to jump in and do some skids.

The fast feline available to unlock this week for 20 PTS on the Festival Playlist is none other than the 2015 Jaguar XKR-S GT. This beast is equipped with a 5.0 supercharged V8 engine that produces 550 bhp.

While it may have the same engine as the regular XKR-S (which is already an updated version of the XKR), the GT Jag weights 40 kg less than its predecessor. Along with the strict diet, the XKR-S GT also had its looks changed with a new aero body that provides amazing grip on all its paws.



Only 30 units of this car were made for the American market and the UK only saw 10 in existance making this Jaguar an elusive and exclusive beast that has to be added to your garage this week.
