Why AWD Matters for Launch in Forza Horizon 6

All-Wheel Drive distributes power to all four wheels, providing maximum traction. For launch, AWD cars often have an advantage in real-world conditions where grip matters — wet roads, dirt, and mixed surfaces. The trade-off is typically more weight and slight understeer.

Budget Pick: 2022 Bmw M5 Cs

At just 150,000 CR, the 2022 Bmw M5 Cs delivers a 10.0 launch rating — making it the most affordable AWD option in our top 10.
