Forza Horizon 6 Series 3 adds 11 new cars, including Lamborghini Temerario
Of the 11 new cars, all are to be unlocked in the Festival Playlist. Eight are reappearing from past Horizon games, three are all-new to the franchise.
It’s time for the third series of Forza Horizon 6, and that means new cars, returning cars, and this time, some game tweaks, a limited-time Italian dealership.
So, here’s everything you need to know about the free ‘Italian Exotics’ Festival Playlist and patch.
Italian Exotics Festival Playlist, 10 new cars
Across the next four weeks, starting from Thursday, 16th July, the Italian Exotics Festival Playlist will deliver a series of new challenges. Earn points, and then use those points to unlock up to 10 new cars.
Of these, three are all-new to the Forza Horizon game series.
Lamborghini Temerario
This is headlined by the Lamborghini Temerario, the Italian manufacturer’s latest Huracán replacing mid-engined hybrid supercar. This can be yours if you earn 80 points across the playlist before 13th August 2026.
Perhaps strangely, the Lamborghini Huracán EVO Spyder is the second of the ‘New-to-Forza’ models. Not only has it been replaced by the Temeratio in the real world, but the near-identical coupe version was in Forza Horizon 5.

Then, that said hard-top version is being added back in as part of this playlist. Scraping the barrel a bit here.
The Spyder can be yours for earning 20 points between 6th and 13th August (spring), while the returning coupe is 40 points between 23rd and 30th July (autumn).
De Tomaso Pantera GT5
Still, there’s the third fresh addition, the brutish, US-powered, De Tomaso Pantera GT5 from 1985. This can be yours for 20 points between 16th and 23rd July (summer).
Elsewhere (full list below), the Maserati MC12, Ferrari 296 GTB, Abarth 124 Spider, Lancia 037 Stradale, Ferrari Roma and Pagani Huayra R are added back into the franchise via FOMO Playlist rewards.
