Overview
2017 Toyota JPN Taxi appears on the official Forza Horizon 6 car list as a D Class (entry-level pace) 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 JPN Taxi replaced the Crown Comfort as Tokyo's purpose-built taxi platform. A 1.5-litre LPG hybrid powertrain, low-floor entry through a sliding rear door and a wheelchair-accessible cabin were developed specifically for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. Production runs at the Higashi-Fuji plant. On the official Forza Horizon 6 car list this 2017 Toyota entry sits in the D Class (entry-level pace) bracket inside the base roster, which is the placement players come to this page expecting to confirm against the public source. Inside the same D Class (entry-level pace) bracket, the closest comparison roster entries for players are 2013 Cadillac XTS Limousine and 2010 Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor, which is the D Class (entry-level pace) peer group this car is usually weighed against. The JDM tag fits the wider Japanese setting of Forza Horizon 6, where this make tends to be a focal point of cruise lobbies and theme nights.
Driving feel in Forza Horizon 6
JPN Taxi replaced the Crown Comfort as Tokyo's purpose-built taxi platform — 1.5 LPG hybrid powertrain, low-floor entry through a sliding rear door, wheelchair-accessible cabin. In D-class events on Japan's coastal routes the JPN Taxi cruises with taxi character; the platform was developed specifically for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics and production runs at the Higashi-Fuji plant.
Where it shines
Use D class entries for the lowest tier of road races, learning loops, scenic photo runs, and casual lobbies where players are picking starter cars.
Tuning starting point
Tuning at this tier is mostly about tire pressure, brake balance and gearing. A small differential adjustment can already change the car a lot.
How to get 2017 Toyota JPN Taxi
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.
