Why FWD Matters for Speed in Forza Horizon 6
Front-Wheel Drive pulls the car from the front axle, creating inherent stability and predictable understeer. For speed, 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.
Budget Pick: 2019 Hyundai Veloster N
At just 20,000 CR, the 2019 Hyundai Veloster N delivers a 6.0 speed rating — making it the most affordable FWD option in our top 10.
