Microsoft and Turn 10 Studios just keep adding to the list of vehicles for the latest edition of Forza. And this week it’s focusing on off-roaders. Headlining this newest expansion are the 1971 Meyers Manx, the 2011 Penhall Cholla, and the 1979 Toyota FJ40 – all vehicles uniquely suited towards tackling the Australian Outback.
The Meyers Manx is the prototypical dune buggy – a bug-eyed, fiberglass-bodied plaything with a Volkswagen engine and enough suspension travel to soak up whatever the dusty trail can throw at it. The Penhall Cholla takes a rather different approach to off-roading, a competition buggy that won its class upon its debut in the Baja 1000 by four hours. And the Toyota FJ40 is a classic that should require no introduction – the prototypical Land Cruiser and inspiration behind the FJ Cruiser that would follow in its tracks decades later.
Of course these aren’t the only new vehicles added this week to Forza Horizon 3. They’re not even the only off-roaders. Others include a race-spec 2017 Ford F-150 Raptor, the Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT, Polaris RZR XP 1000 and Ram Runner. There are rally classics as well like the Ford Escort RS Costworth and RS1600, Lancia Delta S4 and 1990 Subaru Legacy RS.
For those less inclined towards leaving the road, the list also includes classics like the ’57 Chevy Bel Air, Jaguar XK120 SE, Maserati 300S, ’67 Mercedes 280 SL, Lotus Carlton, and Plymouth Hemi Cuda; supercars like the Ferrari 575M, Lamborghini Aventador, Mercedes SL65 Black Series, Nissan R390, and TVR Sagaris; and hot hatches like the Ford Focus ST and Fiesta ST, Mini JCW GP, and Renault Clio Williams.
