Forza Horizon 6 Legacy Cars: How to Claim All 6 Loyalty Rewards (FH1 to FH5 + Motorsport)

TL;DR

• FH6 gives up to 6 free cars to players who have played previous Forza games on the same Xbox account.
• Every car is the cover vehicle of its respective game — with one exception (FH4 gives the Aston Martin Vulcan, not the McLaren Senna).
• Rewards unlock automatically after you complete the Tokyo City introductory race. No codes needed.
• You cannot use most of them in early races — Wristband car class restrictions still apply.
• FH1, FH2, FH3, and FH4 are all delisted. If you do not already have save data, you cannot earn those rewards.
• FH5 and Forza Motorsport (2023) are still available — those rewards are still earnable today.
• If your cars did not show up, Forza Support has released a fix — check your Message Center.

What Are Forza Horizon 6 Loyalty Rewards?

Loyalty rewards are free cars that Playground Games gives to returning Forza players. The idea is simple: if your Xbox Gamertag has a save file from a previous Forza game, FH6 recognizes that history and drops the matching car straight into your garage.

Forza Horizon 6 rewards long-time fans of the series with up to six free cars just for having played previous Forza titles on the same Xbox Gamertag. These are not throwaway vehicles — each one is the cover car from its respective game, meaning machines like the 2021 Mercedes-AMG ONE and the 2016 Lamborghini Centenario LP 770-4 land in your garage before you have even properly started the campaign.

This is not new — previous Horizon games did the same thing. But with FH6 covering six titles worth of history, the rewards on offer this time are some of the best the series has ever handed out for free.

Every Loyalty Reward Car in FH6 — Full List

The Loyalty Reward cars are: the 2013 Dodge SRT Viper GTS (Forza Horizon 1), 2014 Lamborghini Huracán LP 610-4 (Forza Horizon 2), 2016 Lamborghini Centenario LP 770-4 (Forza Horizon 3), 2016 Aston Martin Vulcan (Forza Horizon 4), 2021 Mercedes-AMG One (Forza Horizon 5), and 2024 Chevrolet Corvette E-Ray (Forza Motorsport 2024).

• Forza Horizon (2012) → 2013 Dodge SRT Viper GTS
• Forza Horizon 2 (2014) → 2014 Lamborghini Huracán LP 610-4
• Forza Horizon 3 (2016) → 2016 Lamborghini Centenario LP 770-4
• Forza Horizon 4 (2018) → 2016 Aston Martin Vulcan
• Forza Horizon 5 (2021) → 2021 Mercedes-AMG ONE
• Forza Motorsport (2023) → 2024 Chevrolet Corvette E-Ray

One thing worth noting about the FH4 reward: Playground swapped FH4’s original cover star, possibly due to issues with the Senna license, and opted to reward players with the Aston Martin Vulcan, a rare track-focused machine that handles like a weapon when upgraded. So if you were expecting the McLaren Senna, that is why it is not here.

What Each Car Is Actually Like

2013 Dodge SRT Viper GTS (FH1 Reward)

The Viper GTS is a nod to where the Forza Horizon series began back in 2012. It is big, loud, rear-wheel-drive American muscle — raw and powerful. Not the most refined car in the garage, but one of the most characterful. Great for open-world skill chains and speed runs on the freeway.

2014 Lamborghini Huracán LP 610-4 (FH2 Reward)

The Huracán is a reliable, user-friendly supercar that mixes accessible drivability with enough power to remain relevant in mid- to late-game events. It is a practical reward for players who carried the series forward on earlier consoles. One of the more well-rounded free cars you will get from this system.

2016 Lamborghini Centenario LP 770-4 (FH3 Reward)

The Centenario brings dramatic styling plus explosive straight-line pace. It is a crowd-pleaser for event runs and photo mode shots, and it helps players experience a prestige-tier supercar without grinding. FH3 is widely considered one of the best games in the series, and the Centenario is a fitting tribute to that era.

2016 Aston Martin Vulcan (FH4 Reward)

The Vulcan is a rare, track-exclusive Aston Martin that was never road-legal in real life. It handles like a proper race car — stiff, precise, and demanding. Once upgraded, it is a serious machine for high-performance events and one of the most exotic cars available from the loyalty system.

2021 Mercedes-AMG ONE (FH5 Reward)

The AMG ONE is a halo hypercar that represents FH5’s focus on cutting-edge performance and prestige. It is a strong garage addition for high-speed events and shows off what players unlocked in the previous generation. It is also one of the most technically impressive cars on the loyalty list — a Formula 1-derived engine in a road car body.

2024 Chevrolet Corvette E-Ray (Forza Motorsport Reward)

The E-Ray is the hybrid all-wheel-drive Corvette, combining a traditional V8 with an electric front motor. It is fast, well-balanced, and more approachable than the pure-race cars on this list. The Forza Motorsport reward is among the most accessible for most players since that game is still readily available.

How to Claim Your Loyalty Reward Cars

The claiming process is fully automatic. Loyalty Reward cars are automatically added to your garage when you launch Forza Horizon 6 if you have a linked Microsoft account with qualifying playtime in previous Forza titles. No in-game purchase or challenge is required.

Here is the exact sequence:

• Step 1 — Use the same Xbox account. Your loyalty history is tied to your Xbox account. That means the same Xbox email and profile must be used. If you played FH4 on a different account, it will not count. If you played FH5 on a different profile, it will not count.
• Step 2 — Make sure your old saves exist. You do not need to finish the old games. You do not need high playtime either. You just need a save file linked to your Xbox profile.
• Step 3 — Complete the Tokyo City intro race. The loyalty cars become available after completing the Tokyo City introductory race with Mei. This tutorial race introduces you to the Horizon Festival in Japan and teaches basic driving mechanics.
• Step 4 — Check your garage. Once past the prologue and into your first garage and house, the cars should be waiting. If they are not there immediately, also check your Message Center in the pause menu — some rewards arrive as a message notification first.
• Step 5 — PC players: sign in correctly. If you are playing on PC, you need to sign in to your Xbox app using the correct original account. Playing FH6 on Steam still uses your Microsoft/Xbox account for reward tracking — make sure that link is in place before you launch.

Which Games Are Still Available to Play?

This is the most important practical question for players who do not already have save data. Not all the qualifying games are still available to purchase.

Forza Horizon 1, 2, 3, and 4 are delisted on the Xbox Store and cannot be accessed if you do not own them already, unless you get a disc. So if you never played those games and do not have the disc, there is no way to qualify for those four rewards right now.

However, two games are still fully available:

• Forza Horizon 5 — available on Xbox, PC (Steam and Microsoft Store), and via Game Pass. Playing it even briefly on your Xbox account will qualify you for the 2021 Mercedes-AMG ONE.
• Forza Motorsport (2023) — available on Xbox, PC, and via Game Pass. Playing it qualifies you for the 2024 Chevrolet Corvette E-Ray.

If you only have time to play one older game before jumping into FH6, play FH5. The Mercedes-AMG ONE is arguably the best car on the entire loyalty list and it is one of the most powerful early free additions you can get to your FH6 garage.

Can You Use Loyalty Cars Right Away?

You can drive them in the open world immediately — exploring Japan, hitting Danger Signs, chaining Skills, and doing Drift Zones. But using them in festival race events is a different story.

Forza Horizon 6 restricts faster car classes to later Wristband events in the campaign, so you will not be able to enter a Lamborghini Centenario into a race the moment you claim it. You will need to progress through the appropriate Wristband tier first. This is a deliberate design choice — the game aims to address a long-standing criticism that powerful cars arrive too quickly and remove any sense of progression. The loyalty rewards sidestep this slightly for veterans, but the race restrictions keep the campaign structure intact.

The smart move is to use your loyalty cars for open-world farming while you work through the early Wristbands. Build Skill chains with the Centenario or the Mercedes-AMG ONE across Japan’s freeways. Rack up XP and credits passively. By the time you hit S1 and S2 Wristband tiers, those cars will be ready to enter actual races.

Our FH6 Beginner’s Guide: Tourist to Legend Progression explains every rank, car class restriction, and how to reach Horizon Legend status. And if you are already at the endgame, see our Goliath Race and Colossus guide — your Mercedes-AMG ONE might just be your best lap machine once those R Class events open up.

What to Do If Your Loyalty Cars Are Missing

Some players at launch did not receive their rewards immediately. Here is what to try:

• Wait and check again. Progress synchronization starts automatically the first time you launch Forza Horizon 6. Wait until the progress bar in the progress menu reaches 100%, otherwise the reward cars simply will not appear in your garage.
• Re-launch the old game. If you are missing one reward, install that older game and launch it once. Let it reach the menu. Then quit. That usually forces the save sync.
• Check your Message Center. In FH6, some rewards arrive as messages before they appear in your garage. Open the pause menu and look for a message notification.
• Check your account linkage on PC. If you are on Steam, confirm you are signed into the Xbox app with the correct Microsoft account before launching FH6.
• Contact Forza Support. You can contact Turn 10 support directly at support.forzamotorsport.net. When submitting a ticket, include your Gamertag and screenshots from the Rewards section with a list of completed chapters from FH4 or FH5. Support will manually check your eligibility and force the sync process.

It is also worth knowing that a server-side fix was pushed out at launch for players who did not receive their rewards. If you were affected during early access, a patch should have resolved this — check your garage again.

Can PS5 Players Get Loyalty Rewards?

The PS5 version of FH6 is confirmed for later in 2026 and is not yet available. When it does arrive, FH6 supports full cross-save between Xbox, PC, and PS5. Your loyalty rewards are tied to your Xbox/Microsoft account, and since your save progress carries across platforms, your loyalty cars should transfer with your account when you move to PS5. This will be confirmed in full detail closer to the PS5 launch.

Where to Get Forza Horizon 6

FH6 is available now on Steam and the Xbox Store, and is included with Game Pass. A PlayStation 5 version arrives later in 2026. Visit forza.net for the latest news and Series updates.
