How to complete the Forza Horizon 5 Hot and Sandy Treasure Hunt

The final Forza Horizon 5 season within the Extreme E festival is here!

The Spring Hot Season provides the final chance to scoop up those last liveried cars for your collection.

Both the #125 Abt Cupra XE Extreme E and the #6 Rosberg X Racing Extreme E Odyssey 21s are up for grabs within this week’s seasonal events.

The cars you can earn this week are the Porsche 911 “90” 1990 for 20 points, and the Vauxhall Lotus Carlton 1990 for 40 points. 

SERIES 10 SPRING TREASURE HUNT: HOT AND SANDY

The Treasure Hunt this week named “Hot and Sandy”, comes with the clue “EVs blaze through the sand and deliver a gold star rated service”.

This requires you to jump into any electric car and earn at least 1 star from the Sand and Deliver Trailblazer.

This PR Stunt can be found within Dunas Blancas in the Western area of the map, and just to the South-West of the Horizon Baja Outpost. 

Upon completion, an orange circle will appear within the eastern area of Dunas Blancas. From here, the treasure chest can be found nearby a building and directly in front of a wagon, which is located right next to the Baja California Trail Seasonal Event. 

If you were to fast travel to this event, immediately head left, go off-road and towards a small bungalow, and the chest will be nearby. Simply smash into the Treasure Chest, and the 100FP and 3 points are yours. 

PHOTO CHALLENGE #DESERTRUNNER 

This week’s photo challenge requires you to take a photo of the Lotus Evija 2020 within Dunas Blancas. This car can be bought within the Forzathon Shop for 100FP.

Dunas Blancas can be found in the Western area of the map, the same place where the Treasure Hunt takes place.  

Simply drive-up to the area, open the camera app by using up on the D-pad and tap A to snap the picture to gain the rewards.

Upon completion, the “Applause” Car Horn reward is yours. You can equip this by entering the Car Horn area within the Cars tab in the menu.
