  • S2 958
  • Price:
  • 3,000,000 CR

Bugatti is no stranger to reality-defying supercars. The 2019 Bugatti Divo, based on the iconic Chiron, is perhaps the most enthusiast-focused car from the French manufacturer. Loaded with a turbocharged W16 engine, this AWD sports car was designed with superior handling and downforce in mind.

That doesn’t mean the Divo is a slouch in the speed department. It boasts a 9.6-speed rating in-game and a perfect 10 acceleration score. Named after the 1920s Bugatti driver Albert Divo, this beast can clock 236 mph at its maximum.

12 Hoonigan Ford “Hoonicorn” Mustang

  • S2 951
  • Price:

  • S2 910
  • Price:
  • 2,250,000 CR

McLaren has long been at the cutting edge of fast production supercars and the 2019 Speedtail is their fastest one yet. With a 1000+ bhp engine and a ridiculously aerodynamic body complete with a single-piece rear chassis, all weighing just over 3,000 pounds, the Speedtail takes its name seriously. Stat-wise, the default Speedtail 2019 offers 9.6 speed score, along with an underwhelming 6.8 acceleration.

Going from 0 to 186 mph in just 12.8 seconds, it is McLaren’s fastest accelerating car to date. And talking about top speed, it can manage 250 mph without breaking a sweat.

10 McLaren P1

  • Class:
  • S2 928
  • Price:
  • 1,350,000 CR

The P1 (short for Position 1) is a special hybrid hypercar from McLaren. Incorporating multiple Formula 1 elements like its Kinetic Energy Recovery System (KERS) and Drag Reduction System (DRS), it’s akin to having a road equivalent of an F1 car. The twin-turbocharged V8 engine of the P1 can push the 3296-pound beast from 0 to 60 mph in just 2.8 seconds.

The P1’s 9.1 speed and 6.9 acceleration scores may not blow the socks off of anyone but its 253 mph top speed shows that it’s no slouch either.

9 Rimac Concept Two

  • S2 963
  • Price:
  • 2,000,000 CR

The C-Two boasts an impressive 9.1 speed score along with a lightning-fast 9.9 acceleration that manages to boost the car from 0 to 60 mph in an impressive 1.8 seconds. Considering all of the car’s bells and whistles and its decent top speed of 258 mph, players who pick up the Rimac Concept Two are getting a pretty sweet deal for the price.

8 Zenvo TSR-S

  • Class:
  • S2 927
  • Price:
  • 1,200,000 CR

A variant of Zenvo’s TS1, the Zenvo TSR-S is powered by an in-house twin-turbocharged V8 engine providing 1177 bhp to the rear-wheel-drive (RWD) supercar. The TSR-S also features a ‘centripetal wing’ at the rear that can tilt left or right and distribute airflow and increase downforce on curves.

The Zenvo TSR-S can also tilt forward during braking to increase air resistance and provide more stopping power. The car’s 9-speed and 6.7 acceleration scores are great when one considers its price and 265 mph top speed.

7 Hennessey Venom GT

  • Class:
  • S2 911
  • Price:
  • 1,200,000 CR

The 2012 Hennessey Venom GT is a marvel of engineering, cranking up to 1200 bhp while weighing less than 2,700 pounds. Modified from the Lotus Elise, the Venom GT packs a Twin-Turbocharged V8 engine and can shoot from 0 to 200 mph in 15.3 seconds, an astonishing feat. Its body is almost entirely carbon fiber which adds to its stellar 9.8-speed rating, although the car’s acceleration has a disappointing 6.8 score.

The Hennessey Venom GT has a top speed of 270 mph, ranking it among the fastest of the fastest cars in the game.

6 Porsche Taycan Turbo S (Welcome Pack Version)

  • Class:
  • S1 900
  • Price:
  • 185,000 CR, but the
  • Welcome Pack
  • needs to be bought for $4.99

The Porsche Taycan Turbo S is a bit peculiar. Though the standard version of the car might not be able to rank among the fastest cars, if a player manages to grab it as part of Forza Horizon 5’s Welcome Pack, then it is something else entirely.

It features a perfect 10-speed score and a nearly as good 9.7 acceleration score, and if tuned well, can even exceed 270 mph at its top speed. The Taycan Turbo S holds the distinction of being one of the fastest electric cars in Forza Horizon 5.

5 Bugatti Veyron Super Sport

  • Class:
  • S2 913
  • Price:
  • 2,200,000 CR

Another speedster from Bugatti to rank among Forza Horizon 5’s fastest vehicles is the 2011 Bugatti Veyron Super Sport. This hypercar stands alone when it comes to speed demons, featuring an 8.0L Quad-Turbocharged W16 engine. Its 267 mph top speed easily ranks the Veyron Super Sport among the fastest cars in the game and its astounding 9.9 speed score coupled with a perfect 10 acceleration score neatly wraps up the package.

The Veyron SS is a one-of-its-kind marvel that will more than quench your need for speed.

4 Bugatti Chiron

  • Class:
  • S2 927
  • Price:
  • 2,400,000 CR

Another milestone in automobile engineering is the 2018 Bugatti Chiron. Featuring a similar 8.0L Quad-Turbocharged W16 engine like the Veyron SS, the Chiron goes a step further with its unbeatable 10 speed score and a 9.9 acceleration rating.

The Bugatti Chiron can clock a blistering 269 mph and can go from 0 to 100 mph in 4.9 seconds. Despite weighing almost 4,400 pounds, the Chiron handles brilliantly and deserves to be at the top of any driver’s wishlist of the fastest cars.

3 Koenigsegg One: 1

  • Class:
  • S2 983
  • Price:
  • 2,800,000 CR

The Swedish hypercar manufacturer debuts on the list with the Koenigsegg One: 1 (pronounced as one-to-one). What sets this ‘megacar’ apart is its incredible power-to-weight ratio, owing to its 1360 bhp and 1360 kg weight.

Designed to be its top model in Koenigsegg’s Agera line, the One:1 also has one of the highest cornering forces among any car in the game. Able to go from 0 to 100 mph in just 4.5 seconds, it can reach speeds of up to 273 mph. The One: 1’s 10-speed rating reflects its power, while its 9.5 handling makes the car quite easy to control (while on the road).

2 Koenigsegg Agera RS

  • Class:
  • S2 980
  • Price:
  • 2,000,000 CR

The 2017 Koenigsegg Agera RS takes various components implemented from the One:1. Weighing slightly more than the One:1, the Agera RS is an RWD car focused on squeezing the maximum top speed out of its Twin-Turbocharged V8 engine.

Capable of clocking speeds of up to 280 mph, the Agera RS is the fastest stock production car in the game. Though it sports a perfect 10 speed score and a brilliant 9.7 handling, its acceleration score is a modest 7. That doesn’t stop the Agera RS from being one of the most coveted cars in the game.

1 Koenigsegg Jesko

  • Class:
  • S2 971
  • Price:
  • 2,800,000 CR

The latest production car from the Swedish manufacturer, the 2020 Koenigsegg Jesko (pronounced Yes-koh) is perhaps the only option if you want the absolute fastest experience in Forza Horizon 5, and any game for that matter.

The only car featuring a perfect 10 on the speed and handling scale, the Jesko is designed to offer superior handling at unearthly speeds. Weighing just over 1400 kg and boasting 1280 bhp, the Jesko is intended to break the 300 mph barrier, once tuned with the many in-game upgrades on offer.
