Overview
2016 Dodge Viper ACR appears on the official Forza Horizon 6 car list as a S1 Class (supercar tier) entry in the base roster. This page covers how it tends to drive in its class, where it fits inside the Japan setting, how to think about a starting tune, and which roster entries it naturally compares against.
Background and Forza Horizon 6 context
The fifth-generation Viper ACR pushed the platform to its limit with the most aggressive factory aero package on any street-legal Viper, including a massive carbon rear wing that produced over 1,700 lbs of downforce. The naturally aspirated 8.4-litre V10 produced 645 hp and set production-car lap records at 13 US tracks during launch testing. On the official Forza Horizon 6 car list this 2016 Dodge entry sits in the S1 Class (supercar tier) bracket inside the base roster, which is the placement players come to this page expecting to confirm against the public source. Inside the same S1 Class (supercar tier) bracket, the closest comparison roster entries for players are 2022 Acura NSX Type S and 2021 Alfa Romeo Giulia GTAm, which is the S1 Class (supercar tier) peer group this car is usually weighed against.
Driving feel in Forza Horizon 6
Fifth-generation Viper ACR introduced the most aggressive aero package ever put on a production Viper — a fixed rear wing producing 1,360kg of downforce at 285km/h. In S1-class events on Japan's longer road routes it set the production-car lap record at multiple US circuits; on tighter routes the kerb weight asks for early braking.
Where it shines
S1 class fits faster road events, longer point-to-points and online cruise lobbies focused on supercar showcases.
Tuning starting point
Tunes here often balance launch grip vs top-end. If you mostly run open road events, prefer a tune with steadier mid-throttle response over absolute V-max.
How to get 2016 Dodge Viper ACR
This car is listed without an add-on label on the official Forza Horizon 6 source, so we treat it as part of the base roster. Forza Horizon 6 launches on May 19, 2026, and before that date the public Autoshow may not surface every base-roster car yet — players asking 'how do I get this car, it is not in the Autoshow?' on Reddit or the Forza forums usually find the answer is 'wait for launch day or a post-launch update'. After launch, base-roster cars are normally available through credits in the Autoshow, Wheelspins, Festival Playlist rewards, or the in-game showcase that introduces new vehicles.
