Why FWD Matters for Handling in Forza Horizon 6

Front-Wheel Drive pulls the car from the front axle, creating inherent stability and predictable understeer. For handling, FWD cars often punch above their weight in lower PI classes. They're forgiving for new drivers and competitive in hot hatch and rally events.

At just 30,000 CR, the 2015 Honda Civic Type R delivers a 5.5 handling rating — making it the most affordable FWD option in our top 10.
