Forza Horizon 6 Fastest Car: Top Speed, Stock and Tuned

What is the fastest car after tuning?

Guides that test maximum top speed agree on the Toyota Sprinter Trueno GT-Apex (AE86) Forza Edition. Timesaver's ranking puts it at about 323.8 mph (521 km/h) fully tuned, faster than every hypercar in the game, and about 279 mph stock. You earn it by completing 10 sections of the Discover Japan collection; Master Explorer is the quickest route.

The numbers below come from one guide, Timesaver.gg, and are rounded. Other sites give slightly different figures because top speed depends on gearing, aero and the road used for testing.

What is the fastest stock car?

Red Bull's June 22, 2026 list names the Nissan GT-R Black Edition (R35) Forza Edition at 304.8 mph (490.5 km/h), counting its developer tuning as stock. Other guides give the title to the Hennessey Venom F5 at about 305 mph, which Red Bull lists at 304.7 mph. The two are effectively tied.

The practical difference is how you get them. The Venom F5 is an Autoshow car at 2,050,000 CR. The GT-R Black Edition FE only appears as a random Aftermarket purchase or Wheelspin prize, and Red Bull says Auction House listings often run to millions.

Is the Koenigsegg Gemera the fastest?

GamingBible's August 18, 2026 list ranks the 2024 Koenigsegg Gemera first at 351 mph (565 km/h). That figure is far above every other source: Red Bull lists the Gemera at 272 mph stock, and other guides put it around 300 mph. Until another test reproduces 351 mph, treat it as unconfirmed. The Gemera was Car Pass only when Red Bull wrote its list.

Which car is best for Speed Traps?

Speed Traps reward the speed you carry past a camera, so top speed and how quickly you reach it both matter. Timesaver's speed trap guide recommends the GT-R Black Edition Forza Edition for most traps because it rates 10 for speed, acceleration and launch.

For long approaches, the Koenigsegg Jesko's nine-speed gearbox keeps pulling after other cars hit the limiter. For short run-ups after a corner, the Rimac Nevera's instant torque wins. On a budget, the same guide calls the Ultima Evolution Coupe 1020, at roughly 150,000 CR, the smartest mid-game buy. The two hardest traps, Airfield Runway and Izu Skyline, need about 230 mph for three stars.

• Gearing: lengthen the final drive until the car stops accelerating just as it passes the camera.
• Aero: drop front and rear wings toward minimum on long straights.
• Run-up: back up for at least 1 to 1.5 km of clear road and do not brake before the camera.
• Rewinds: a rewind mid-run is the most common reason a trap does not count.

Fastest car versus best drag car

Top speed and quarter-mile time are different contests. A drag race is decided by launch and acceleration over 402 metres, so AWD Forza Editions dominate there. The best drag cars page covers quarter-mile times and the Irokawa Quarter Mile drag meet.

How to get the top-speed cars

• AE86 Forza Edition: Discover Japan collection reward (10 sections).
• Hennessey Venom F5: Autoshow, 2,050,000 CR, or cheaper on the Auction House.
• GT-R Black Edition Forza Edition: random Aftermarket listing or Wheelspin; Auction House otherwise.
• Mazda MX-5 Miata Forza Edition: Aftermarket purchase on the map for 450,000 CR, per Red Bull.
• Koenigsegg Agera RS: Auction House, about 2.9 million CR in Red Bull's check.
• Need credits first? The money farm guide covers the fastest legitimate methods.

Is the fastest car also best for Danger Signs?

Not always. Danger Signs need speed at the ramp but also stability in the air, and some three-star jumps need a specific class. EZG's Danger Sign guide calls the Mercedes-AMG ONE a good all-rounder for jumps. The Danger Signs guide lists target distances and approach tips.
