Italian Exotics is the third Festival Playlist series in Forza Horizon 6, and it runs from July 16 to August 13, 2026. Across those four weeks, the Playlist hands out 10 reward cars, split between two series-long unlocks and eight seasonal rewards that rotate week by week. Three of them are brand new to the Horizon lineup, and the rest are returning models.
Quick answer: Earn Forzathon points to hit each threshold. The 2024 Lamborghini Temerario unlocks at 80 series points and the 2022 Ferrari 296 GTB at 160 series points, while each weekly season offers a 20-point car and a 40-point car that you must claim before that week ends.
All Italian Exotics reward cars and point thresholds
Two cars sit outside the weekly rotation and can be claimed at any time during the series, as long as you bank enough total points before August 13. The other eight are locked to a specific season and disappear once that week closes.
| Reward car | Points | Availability window |
|---|---|---|
| 2024 Lamborghini Temerario | 80 (series) | July 16 – Aug. 13 |
| 2022 Ferrari 296 GTB | 160 (series) | July 16 – Aug. 13 |
| 1984 De Tomaso Pantera GT5 | 20 (Summer) | July 16 – July 23 |
| 2004 Maserati MC12 | 40 (Summer) | July 16 – July 23 |
| 2017 Abarth 124 Spider | 20 (Autumn) | July 23 – July 30 |
| 2020 Lamborghini Huracán EVO | 40 (Autumn) | July 23 – July 30 |
| 1982 Lancia 037 Stradale | 20 (Winter) | July 30 – Aug. 6 |
| 2020 Ferrari Roma | 40 (Winter) | July 30 – Aug. 6 |
| 2022 Lamborghini Huracán EVO Spyder | 20 (Spring) | Aug. 6 – Aug. 13 |
| 2022 Pagani Huayra R | 40 (Spring) | Aug. 6 – Aug. 13 |
The three new-to-Horizon cars
If you already have a full garage from earlier series, these are the additions worth prioritizing since they have not appeared in Horizon before.
The 2024 Lamborghini Temerario is the headliner, unlocking at 80 series points. It replaced the Huracán in Lamborghini’s real lineup and pairs a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 with three electric motors for 907 total horsepower, landing it among the brand’s most powerful production cars. In-game it sits in the S2 class with a stock Performance Index of 801.
The 1984 De Tomaso Pantera GT5 is the oldest of the newcomers and the cheapest to claim at 20 Summer points. It runs a 5.8-liter Ford engine producing 310 bhp and slots into the B class with a 562 PI, leaving plenty of tuning headroom.
The 2022 Lamborghini Huracán EVO Spyder arrives in the final week for 20 Spring points. It is a separate model from the 2020 Huracán EVO offered in Autumn, so the Playlist effectively gives you both the coupe and the open-top version of the same car during a single series.
Performance stats for every reward car
Class and Performance Index give you a quick read on where each reward fits before you commit points to it. The Pagani Huayra R is the standout on paper, sitting in the R class with a 954 PI as an Extreme Track Toy.
| Car | Tier | PI |
|---|---|---|
| 2024 Lamborghini Temerario | S2 | 801 |
| 2022 Ferrari 296 GTB | S2 | 811 |
| 1984 De Tomaso Pantera GT5 | B | 562 |
| 2004 Maserati MC12 | S1 | 753 |
| 2017 Abarth 124 Spider | C | 450 |
| 2020 Lamborghini Huracán EVO | S1 | 783 |
| 1982 Lancia 037 Stradale | B | 555 |
| 2020 Ferrari Roma | S1 | 735 |
| 2022 Lamborghini Huracán EVO Spyder | S1 | 757 |
| 2022 Pagani Huayra R | R | 954 |
A few notes on the returning cars. The 2004 Maserati MC12 comes back as the road car rather than the 2008 Versione Corsa seen in Forza Horizon 5, which remains a separate Extreme Track Toy. The 2017 Abarth 124 Spider uses a 1.4-liter turbo engine with 165 bhp and is the lowest-powered reward in the set. The 1982 Lancia 037 Stradale is the road version of Lancia’s Group B rally car and the only rally-homologation entry here.
How to earn Forzathon points for the rewards
Points come from completing Festival Playlist activities, and they feed both the weekly seasonal totals and the running series total at the same time. You earn them in small chunks by clearing the events below.
| Activity | Points |
|---|---|
| The Trial | 10 |
| Weekly Challenge | 5 |
| Seasonal Championship (x2) | 5 |
| Monthly Rivals | 4 |
| Treasure Hunt | 3 |
| Time Attack | 3 |
| Horizon Drift | 3 |
| Horizon Stunt Party | 3 |
| Photo Challenge | 2 |
| Danger Sign | 2 |
| Speed Zone | 2 |
| Drift Zone | 2 |
Most challenges refresh every week when the season rolls over. The Monthly Rivals event is the exception, since it stays active for the entire series and awards its 4 points once. Full details on the series line-up are posted on the official Forza Series 3 page.
Season schedule and claiming your cars
The seasonal rewards are time-gated, so plan around each week’s window. The Temerario and 296 GTB are the only two you can chase at your own pace across the whole month.
- Summer (July 16 – July 23): De Tomaso Pantera GT5, Maserati MC12
- Autumn (July 23 – July 30): Abarth 124 Spider, Lamborghini Huracán EVO
- Winter (July 30 – Aug. 6): Lancia 037 Stradale, Ferrari Roma
- Spring (Aug. 6 – Aug. 13): Lamborghini Huracán EVO Spyder, Pagani Huayra R
When you cross a point threshold, the reward car is added straight to your garage and shows a claim confirmation on the Festival Playlist screen. If a car does not appear, the usual cause is missing the seasonal deadline, because seasonal points reset when the week ends and no longer count toward that week’s reward. The series-wide totals for the Temerario and 296 GTB carry over until August 13.
Keep the four Italian Passion Car Pack vehicles separate in your head from these rewards. The 2025 Ferrari F80, 1967 Ferrari 275 GTB4 Spider, 2021 Alfa Romeo Giulia GTAm, and 1990 Alfa Romeo SE 048SP are paid content unless you own the Premium Edition or Premium Upgrade, and they are not tied to Forzathon points at all. Everything in the tables above is earned purely by playing the Playlist.
