The 2010 Jaguar C-X75 is one of the most unusual and fascinating cars in Forza Horizon 6. It is a concept car that never made it to full production, powered by a hybrid drivetrain built with help from the Williams Formula One team. It has all-wheel drive, an electric motor on each axle, and a turbocharged four-cylinder engine that produces more power per litre than almost anything else in the game.

What Is the 2010 Jaguar C-X75?
The Jaguar C-X75 is one of the most talked-about concept cars of the 2010s — and one of the most tragic stories in automotive history. It debuted at the 2010 Paris Motor Show as a show car powered by two diesel-fed micro gas turbines and four YASA electric motors. The concept promised a top speed over 200 mph, a 0 to 60 time under 3.4 seconds, and a pure electric range of nearly 70 miles.
Jaguar then announced it would actually build the car in limited numbers, partnering with the Williams Advanced Engineering Formula One team to develop the carbon fibre chassis, aerodynamics, and hybrid technology. The production version replaced the turbines with a 1.6-litre supercharged and turbocharged four-cylinder engine developed with Cosworth and Williams, paired with an electric motor on each axle for all-wheel drive.
Five developmental prototypes were built. One starred in the 2015 James Bond film Spectre, chasing an Aston Martin DB10 through the streets of Rome. Then the programme was cancelled in December 2012 due to global economic conditions, leaving only those five prototypes and a legend.
In Forza Horizon 6, the C-X75 carries that story into Japan’s open roads. It is one of the most technically interesting cars in the S1 class — and one of the few Legendary-rated supercars you can own with genuinely unique hybrid credentials.
2010 Jaguar C-X75 — Full Performance Stats in Forza Horizon 6
Here is the complete breakdown of the C-X75’s stock figures in FH6:
- Class: S1
- Drivetrain: All-Wheel Drive (AWD)
- Rarity: Legendary
- Engine: 1.6L Twin-Charged Hybrid I4 + 2x Electric Motors
- Power: 890 bhp (664 kW)
- Torque: 738 lb·ft (1,001 Nm)
- Transmission: 7-Speed
- Weight: 3,750 lbs (1,701 kg)
- Weight Distribution: 45% Front / 55% Rear
- Power-to-Weight: 0.237 hp/lb (0.39 kW/kg)
- Layout: Mid-Engine, All-Wheel Drive
The power output of 890 bhp from a 1.6-litre engine is extraordinary. To put it in context, that is more than most naturally aspirated V12 supercars produce from twice or three times the displacement. The twin-charged setup — combining a supercharger and a turbocharger on the same small engine alongside two electric motors — is what makes this car technically unique compared to almost anything else in the FH6 roster.
Engine and Technical Specs
The C-X75 in Forza Horizon 6 uses the specification of the production prototype rather than the original concept’s turbine setup. Here is the full technical breakdown:
- Engine: 1.6-litre Twin-Charged (Supercharged + Turbocharged) Inline-Four
- Electric Motors: Two YASA electric motors — one on each axle
- Combined Output: 890 bhp / 738 lb·ft torque
- Drivetrain: All-Wheel Drive — electric motor torque vectoring on both axles
- Transmission: 7-Speed
- Body: Carbon fibre construction developed with Williams F1
- Layout: Mid-engine
- Weight: 3,750 lbs (1,701 kg) with 45/55 front-to-rear distribution
The electric motors on each axle act as an advanced torque-vectoring AWD system. In real-world engineering terms, this means power can be shifted to the outer wheel during cornering to help rotate the car — a concept borrowed directly from Formula One technology. In Forza Horizon 6, this translates to AWD traction that feels unusually planted and responsive, especially when accelerating out of corners.
The weight at 3,750 lbs is on the heavier side for a mid-engine supercar, but the 45/55 weight distribution keeps the car balanced and rear-biased, which helps with cornering feel and on-throttle rotation.
How Does the Jaguar C-X75 Drive in FH6?
The AWD layout is the C-X75’s defining characteristic in Forza Horizon 6. In S1 class, where rear-wheel drive cars can struggle for traction off the line, the C-X75 puts its power down cleanly and confidently. Launch is strong, corner exit traction is excellent, and the car does not snap into oversteer the way a comparable RWD S1 car does under hard acceleration.
The mid-engine layout combined with the rear-biased weight distribution gives the car a balanced, neutral feel in corners. It is not the lightest S1 car in the game — 3,750 lbs is a meaningful penalty against stripped-out competitors — but the chassis balance compensates for much of that weight through responsive handling.
The hybrid powertrain also means torque delivery is very smooth and immediate. There is no waiting for a turbo to spool up from low speeds. The electric motors fill in the low-end torque instantly, which makes the C-X75 feel punchy and responsive from corner exit in a way that a purely combustion-engined car at the same PI cannot always match.
For S1 road races and technical circuits around Japan’s winding mountain roads, the C-X75 is a genuinely capable and enjoyable car to drive. If you want to know which roads suit it best, our best roads and mountain passes guide covers all the top routes across Japan.
Jaguar C-X75 in the Context of the S1 Class
S1 is a competitive class in FH6, home to a wide range of high-end supercars. Here is how the C-X75 relates to some of the strongest S1 cars:
- Jaguar C-X75 — AWD, 890 bhp hybrid, mid-engine. Strong launch, balanced cornering, Legendary rarity. One of the most technically distinctive S1 cars in the game.
- Porsche 911 Turbo S — Another strong AWD S1 car with impressive launch performance. See our Porsche 911 Turbo S guide for details.
- Koenigsegg Agera (2011) — RWD, S2 810 — a step above in PI but rear-wheel drive means more throttle discipline required. Our Koenigsegg Agera stats guide covers it in full.
The C-X75’s AWD advantage in S1 is significant. At S1 power levels, rear-wheel drive cars require careful throttle management to avoid losing traction. The C-X75 sidesteps that entirely, making it more accessible and more consistent in race conditions — particularly in wet weather or on the technical touge passes of Japan’s mountain regions.
Is the Jaguar C-X75 Worth Buying?
Yes — particularly if you enjoy S1 racing and want an AWD car with a genuinely unique character.
Buy the C-X75 if:
- You want a Legendary-rated AWD supercar for S1 events.
- You enjoy cars with distinctive engineering stories — the C-X75 is one of the most technically interesting vehicles in the game.
- You want a car that feels smooth and predictable off the line without the wheelspin demands of RWD S1 rivals.
- You are building a complete Jaguar collection — the C-X75 sits alongside the Jaguar E-Type S1 as one of the brand’s most iconic entries in FH6.
- You want something different to the usual German, Italian, or Swedish hypercar choices at S1.
Consider alternatives if:
- You need maximum top speed — the C-X75 is a technical all-rounder rather than an outright straight-line weapon.
- You are looking for the lightest possible S1 car for circuit events — the C-X75’s 3,750 lb kerb weight is on the heavier end for the class.
- You are still in the early stages of the game — our best starter cars guide covers more accessible early-game choices first.

Upgrade Tips for the Jaguar C-X75
The C-X75 is already a strong all-rounder at stock. Here are the areas worth focusing on when upgrading:
- Tyres — Moving to race compound tyres unlocks more grip and improves consistency through corners. Given the AWD layout already provides excellent traction, better tyres translate directly to faster lap times rather than just stability fixes.
- Suspension — Stiffening and lowering the suspension tightens up body roll and makes the car more responsive through fast direction changes. The mid-engine layout means the C-X75 responds well to suspension tuning.
- Weight reduction — At 3,750 lbs, the C-X75 is carrying meaningful weight for a supercar. Removing weight via performance parts directly improves the power-to-weight ratio and sharpens the handling.
- Brakes — Upgrading to race brakes gives you shorter stopping distances and more consistent fade-free braking under hard use.
- Differential tuning — Fine-tuning the AWD differential split to favour slightly more rear bias helps with rotation through tighter corners while keeping the AWD traction advantage on exit.

The C-X75’s History in the Forza Series
The Jaguar C-X75 first appeared in Forza Horizon 5 as a Season Reward car in the Modern Supercars category, where it was classified in S1 class and carried Legendary rarity. Its appearance in FH6 continues that tradition, bringing the concept’s extraordinary engineering story to Japan’s open world for the first time.
It is worth noting that FH6 also includes a James Bond Edition Jaguar C-X75 as a separate vehicle. The James Bond Edition appeared in Forza Horizon 4 as part of the Best of Bond Car Pack and represents the actual Spectre film car. The standard 2010 C-X75 in this guide is the production prototype specification.
For other iconic Jaguar models in FH6, the 1961 Jaguar E-Type S1 is one of the best classic cars in the game and well worth adding to the same garage.
