It’s the Autumn ‘Storm’ Season, the second week of Forza Horizon 5‘s Series 10, choc full of Extreme E… but I bet all of your focus has been purely on the new Hot Wheels Expansion DLC, hasn’t it?
Oh, I bet it has.
Regardless, there is still a festival to be played, and this week includes more to do with both Extreme E with some Hot Wheels DLC sprinkled in the form of a PR Stunt and Seasonal Championship.
The car rewards within this week’s Autumn Season are the Porsche 911 Carrera 2 by Gunther Werks 1995 for 20 points, and the Ferrari F8 Tributo 2020 for 40 points.
Through the series, two more Extreme E team cars, the #23 Genesys Andretti United Extreme E and the #5 Veloce Racing Extreme E, are unlock able by completing certain objectives.
SUSTAINABLE ENERGY
As for the Treasure Hunt named “Sustainable Energy”, this comes with the clue “In Guanajuato, EV charging points are every 15 seconds but 100 are maintained”.
This requires you to jump into any electric vehicle, such as the Ford Mustang Mach E or any Extreme E car, and maintain 100mph for 15 seconds within Guanajuato.
Conveniently, this is also a requirement for completing the “Energise!” daily challenge.
Upon completion, an orange circle will appear over the north-eastern area of Guanajuato. The treasure chest can be found nearby the University.
Head to this landmark and search for a narrow road filled with market stalls, the chest will be within. Simply smash into the treasure chest to gain 3pts and 100FP.
PHOTO CHALLENGE #PUREENERGY
This week’s photo challenge requires you to take a photo of the Jaguar I-PACE 2018 in Guanajuato, which is where you can also find the aforementioned treasure chest. This car can be bought from the Autoshow for 87,000 CR.
Simply drive into 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 Rawr emote reward is yours. You can equip this by visiting your home, and selecting Customise Character in the My Festival tab.
