Road tier list

Best Road A cars in Forza Horizon 6

Road A is the most-searched best-of category across the Horizon series. A 700 is the FH6 sweet spot for sealed-tarmac circuits: enough downforce budget to make aero matter, low enough power that grip and weight beat brute force. RWD mid-engine and front-engine GT cars dominate this class; the picks below cover the weight spectrum from 940 kg featherweight to 1875 kg V12 GT.

How we ranked these

Aero balance near 0.50 is the new normal in FH6, and brakes are now a real upgrade path. Cars that can hit those targets without compromising their stock character rank higher. Power-to-weight, mid-engine balance and turn-in response weighted over straight-line speed. Early-meta note: balance changes will land; we re-verify at every Series reset.

2014 Alfa Romeo 4C

RWD · Modern Sports Cars · 1.7L Turbo I4

940 kg. Mid-engine. That is the headline. With a small power upgrade to hit A 700 it has the highest cornering speeds on the list and rewards trail-braking under FH6's reworked brake model.

Strengths: Lowest weight in A class for any non-track car
Mid-engine rotation; perfect for the new aero-balance display

AStock 675

RWD · Modern Sports Cars · 2.5L Turbo F4

Flat-six mid-engine that turns A class into a Cup-car experience. More forgiving than the Alfa, marginally slower at the very top of the class. The easiest pick for new road racers.

Long wheelbase, front-engine, B58 inline-six. Loses to the mid-engine picks on tight circuits but pulls hard on long sweepers and the Tokyo expressway-style road events.

RWD · Modern Muscle · 5.0L NA V8

New for FH6 and one of the headline Modern Muscle cars. 500 stock hp and a stiff Track Pack chassis; tunes down to A 700 cleanly. Watch the 6.2 V8 swap path, in FH6 it adds ~45 kg over FH5 so the swap hurts road handling more than it used to.

RWD · Super GT · 5.2L Twin-Turbo V12

608 hp V12 in a 1875 kg GT body. Top of A class stock at PI 679; barely any tuning budget but it does not need much. The pick for long, flowing circuits where its V12 torque dominates the run-out of every corner.

Honorable mentions

2022 Cadillac CT4-V BlackwingA · RWD
Sleeper sport sedan. Closer to the Mustang in character than the Cayman; pick when you want a four-door at A 700.
2019 Nissan 370Z NismoA · RWD
Cheap, light, low stock PI (603). The budget-friendly entry point into A road. Carries over the FH5 road-build playbook with minor adjustments for the new brake model.
2015 Mercedes-AMG GT SA · RWD
Top-of-class stock at PI 691. Big front-engine GT in the DB11 vein but with smaller tuning budget. Treat the two as alternates.
