Forza Horizon 4 includes 752 unique car models in the basic version (without DLC) - this is a record number for the series at the time of release (2018). However, the actual number of available cars depends on the edition of the game, the player's progress and installed add-ons. For example, taking into account the extensions Fortune Island and LEGO Speed Champions the collection is expanding to 850+ cars, and taking into account weekly updates from Playground Games (until 2023) - until 900+. It is important to understand: not all cars are available immediately - 60% of the fleet is hidden behind achievements, seasons or microtransactions.
If you are looking for a specific figure for collection planning, focus on 752 base models (including variations of one brand, for example 12 versions Porsche 911). But a real collection guide should take into account:
- 🔑 Exceptional cars (available only through
Forzathon Shopor limited events). - 💰 Paid DLC (for example, James Bond Car Pack adds 10 unique cars).
- 🎯 Seasonal Rewards (weekly rotations in
Festival Playlist). - 🔧 Modifications (some cars like Hoonigan RS200, require modifications to unlock).
This article contains current data for 2026, including a table of rare cars, ways to get them, and life hacks for quickly replenishing your garage. If you are playing on Xbox Series X|S or PC through Steam/Microsoft Store, information applies to all platforms.

Comparison with other parts of the Forza series
Forza Horizon 4 is inferior in the number of cars to the newer parts of the series, but remains one of the richest games in the genre in terms of content. Let's compare:
| Game | Number of cars | Release year | Features |
|---|---|---|---|
| Forza Horizon 3 | 350 | 2016 | Fewer brands, but uniquely Australian designs |
| Forza Horizon 4 | 752 (+850 with DLC) | 2018 | Record number for the series at the time of release |
| Forza Horizon 5 | 500+ (1000+ with updates) | 2021 | More licensed content, but less variation |
Main advantage FH4 — deep customization. For example, for Nissan Skyline GT-R R34 15+ tuning options available (from stock version to 1000+ hp monsters). B FH5 the emphasis shifted to graphics and physics, but the number of unique models was reduced by removing duplicates.
Common mistakes when collecting a collection
Players often waste time making these common mistakes:
- 💸 Buying cars with credits at the Autoshow: many models are cheaper to buy at auction (for example, Lamborghini Huracán costs 150,000 CR at auction versus 200,000 CR at the showroom).
- 🎯 Ignoring seasonal events: 30% of exclusive cars are given away only through
Festival Playlist. - 🔄 Selling duplicates without verification: some machines (for example, Ford GT 2017) have different characteristics depending on the method of production.
- 🚗 Not using auto-selection: function
"Find similar"in the garage helps to avoid buying identical models.
⚠️ Attention: If you are playing on PC via Steam, avoid mods to unlock cars. Playground Games actively bans accounts for changing game files (even for harmless visual mods).
