Overview
2020 Mercedes-AMG GT Black Series Welcome Pack appears on the official Forza Horizon 6 car list as a S2 Class (hypercar tier) entry carrying the Welcome Pack pack label. 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
A Welcome Pack variant of Mercedes-AMG's 2020 GT Black Series. Shares the same flat-plane-crank 720 hp 4.0-litre M178 V8, massive adjustable rear wing, BBS forged wheels and carbon body panels as the standard Black Series, which set a 6:43.6 Nürburgring lap record on its debut. On the official Forza Horizon 6 car list this 2020 Mercedes-AMG entry sits in the S2 Class (hypercar tier) bracket under the Welcome Pack pack label, which is the placement players come to this page expecting to confirm against the public source. Inside the same S2 Class (hypercar tier) bracket, the closest comparison roster entries for players are 2013 Ariel Atom 500 V8 and 2016 Aston Martin Vulcan, which is the S2 Class (hypercar tier) peer group this car is usually weighed against.
Driving feel in Forza Horizon 6
Same Mercedes-AMG M178 4.0 twin-turbo V8 with flat-plane crank making 720hp as the standard 2020 GT Black Series. In S2-class events on Japan's mountain routes the chassis behaviour is the standard Black Series formula; the flat-plane V8 is the highest-output AMG V8 ever sold and the aero numbers reward committed driving on long, flowing circuits.
Where it shines
S2 class is for top-end road events, drag-style straight sections of Japanese expressways, and competitive lap-time challenges.
Tuning starting point
Tuning at S2 is where you choose between top-speed runs and lap-pace. Keep one tune for each style if you race both. Rear-wheel-drive cars want a softer rear and careful throttle on corner exit; pay attention to rear tire pressure especially on long Japan map straights.
How to get 2020 Mercedes-AMG GT Black Series Welcome Pack
