Forza Horizon 5 News

Don’t be fooled by its chassis. On the outside the 1991 GMC Syclone looks like another pick-up truck, but under the hood GMC dropped a turbocharged V6, and then bolted on a high-performance all-wheel drive system.

The result is a genuinely fast, remarkably grippy truck that is incredibly fun to drive – it even comes close to outperforming a lot of very expensive, exotic cars of its time while costing a whole ton less.

This classic AWD mini truck is the featured reward vehicle on this week’s Festival Playlist, and it can be yours for 20 PTS before Thursday, July 6! What other cars would you like to see in future Forza Horizon 5 updates? Remember to upvote your top-requested cars on the official Suggestions Hub.


This season you will also find the Tank Mechanic Pinata Collectible around the Horizon Baja circuit – smash into 10 of them to complete the challenge.

Here’s a closer look at the events and rewards in this week’s Festival Playlist:
