How the Forza Horizon 6 DLC Works
The Car Pass will expand your digital garage significantly. Ultimately, the add-on delivers 30 new vehicles. Starting on launch day, one new car will drop every week. Most importantly, players access these vehicles instantly. You will not spend in-game credits. Moreover, you will not need to complete special challenges to drive them.
Currently, the Car Pass comes bundled with the game’s Premium and Deluxe Editions. Additionally, you can acquire it through the Premium Upgrade. Otherwise, players have the option to purchase the DLC separately after launch.

Finally, players have already noticed drastic improvements in lighting and reflections compared to earlier preview builds.
