Among racing games, Forza Horizon 5 has become a favorite among players with its beautiful long-range shots and interesting gameplay. In addition, there are many challenges in this Forza Horizon 5, encouraging players to use their own cars to achieve excellent results.
With Forza Horizon 5 Cars that players own, most of them can be upgraded to improve the performance of the car. However, many cars have a very high upgrade cost, so you need to know whether the car is worth upgrading before choosing it.
This guide will introduce you to several Forza Horizon 5 Cars that are worth upgrading in the game, so that you can make a quick decision.
1. Acura NSX
- Default Rating: S1 831
- Max Upgrade Rating: S2 959
Acura NSX is a hybrid sports car, but its performance is not to be underestimated. With a top speed of nearly 190 mph, it has powerful acceleration and handling, and can even compete with luxury cars that cost ten times more. Most importantly, you can get this car for a relatively low cost and upgrade cost.
In addition to the above advantages, the uniqueness of Acura NSX is that it has very good fine-tuning potential and can be applied to various racing disciplines. However, it should be noted that Acura NSX is not suitable for use on some tracks that require long-term high-speed driving.
However, you can put it on some tracks with multiple turns, because it has cornering ability and can achieve smooth turns with the help of torque vectoring control. This will make it far ahead on such tracks.
2. Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio
- Default Rating: A 775
- Max Upgrade Rating: S2 960
Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio is a very good Italian A-class sports car in itself, so you only need to spend very few Forza Horizon 5 Credits to upgrade it to the top of S2 class. Its flexibility in different racing disciplines also makes it the most used car in this game, and its top speed of 200 mph allows you to ride away on many tracks.
3. Audi R8 V10 Plus
- Default Rating: S1 834
- Max Upgrade Rating: S2 976
- Widebody: Liberty Walk
Whether in real life or in racing games, Audi R8 V10 Plus has always been a dream car in the hearts of many people. This sports car shares a platform with Lamborghini Huracán, both of which start in the middle of S1 class, but the difference is that Audi R8 V10 Plus can be upgraded with Liberty Walk performance kit.
With the right upgrade strategy, Audi R8 V10 Plus can directly reach the top level of S2 class - the top speed will reach 250 mph. In addition, Audi R8 V10 Plus’s smooth sports car silhouette and prominent vents on the sides and rear will make this sports car run like a beast on some straight tracks.
4. TVR Cerbera Speed 12
- Default Rating: S1 861
- Max Upgrade Rating: S2 998
TVR Cerbera Speed 12 is one of the few Forza Horizon 5 Cars in the entire game that can easily reach the top level of S2, although it was originally just a mid-level S1 vehicle. But it must be mentioned that TVR Cerbera Speed 12’s initial form also has a high speed of 240 mph, which is something that many racing cars cannot reach.
This high speed, coupled with a very light body weight - only 2,150 pounds, if it is upgraded with a little track parts, TVR Cerbera Speed 12 is undoubtedly one of the best performing cars in the game.
5. Ford Mustang Shelby GT500
- Default Rating: S1 836
- Max Upgrade Rating: S2 961
As the most powerful original model in Ford’s history, Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 has won multiple awards in many real-life racing competitions, and it is no exception in Forza Horizon 5.
Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 has a 760-horsepower supercharged engine, a fast-shifting dual-clutch system, and superb balance, which has already left many S1-level cars behind. But this car also has plenty of room for upgrades. You can upgrade it to the peak of S1 and even enter some S2 competitions.
The above are some vehicles that are worth upgrading in Forza Horizon 5. I hope you can use these powerful cars to win more victories. I wish you a happy game!
