Forza Horizon 6 brings the Horizon Festival to Japan with a map covering iconic locations and a garage that stretches past 600 cars at launch. Playground Games is expanding that roster further through the Car Pass, a separate purchase that delivers 30 additional vehicles across weekly drops. Only 4 of those 30 cars have been officially revealed so far, with the studio drip-feeding announcements rather than revealing the full lineup upfront.
What cars are in the Forza Horizon 6 Car Pass?
Playground Games has confirmed the first four weekly distributions for the Car Pass. The remaining 26 vehicles have not been announced yet. Here are all confirmed Car Pass cars and their release dates:
The mix of cars in the first four weeks covers a wide spread: a legendary Japanese touring car, a modern hypercar, a vintage racing Datsun, and a fan-favorite hot hatch. That variety suggests Playground Games is deliberately targeting different playstyles and eras with each drop rather than front-loading the pass with a single category.
Car Pass weekly drop screen
Is the Forza Horizon 6 Car Pass worth buying?
This is where honest math matters. The Car Pass delivers 30 cars spread across roughly 30 weeks of content. That sounds substantial, but Forza Horizon 6 already has a large pool of free vehicles available through standard progression and Wheelspins. You are not going to hit a wall in your garage without the Car Pass.
Compared to other optional purchases available for the game, including VIP Membership and individual Car Packs, the Car Pass sits at the lower end of the priority list for most players. The weekly drip format means you are not getting a large immediate payoff either. You add one car per week, which is a slow burn rather than an instant collection boost.
The clearest argument for the Car Pass is if you already own the Forza Horizon 6 Premium Edition, because the pass is included at no extra cost. In that case, the weekly distributions are a straightforward bonus. If you are considering a standalone purchase, check the Premium Edition bonus content guide first to see whether upgrading your edition makes more financial sense than buying the Car Pass separately.
If you own the Premium Edition, the Car Pass is already yours. Claim each weekly car as it drops rather than waiting and collecting them in bulk.
How does the Car Pass distribution schedule work?
Each Car Pass vehicle releases on a fixed weekly date. You do not receive all 30 cars at once. Playground Games staggers the drops so that Car Pass owners have a reason to return to the game each week. The four confirmed cars release across the first three weeks of the game (May 19 through June 11), with subsequent cars following the same weekly cadence.
There is no indication from Playground Games that you can unlock Car Pass vehicles through in-game credits or Wheelspins. These cars are exclusive to Car Pass owners and Premium Edition holders.
Missing a weekly distribution window does not mean you lose the car permanently. Car Pass vehicles should be claimable retroactively once you own the pass, but confirm this in-game when you redeem your pass.
Building your garage beyond the Car Pass
The Car Pass is one slice of how you expand your collection in Forza Horizon 6. The game includes Barn Finds, Treasure Cars, and standard unlock methods that add free vehicles without spending anything extra. For a full breakdown of how to track down every available car, the complete Forza Horizon 6 car list guide covers all 550+ confirmed vehicles, unlock methods, and top picks by discipline.
If you want to prioritize the most efficient routes to filling your garage, focus on progression rewards and Wheelspins first. The Car Pass supplements those methods rather than replacing them. The 30 additional vehicles it provides are a meaningful addition for dedicated collectors, but casual players will find the base game content more than sufficient.
For everything else you need to get the most out of the game, the full Forza Horizon 6 strategy guide collection has you covered across every system and unlock method.
