Festival Playlist · Season rewards
Forza Horizon 6 Treasure Cars
Treasure cars are the seasonal headline rewards on the Forza Horizon 6 Festival Playlist. You complete a specific Playlist task, follow a riddle to a treasure chest on the map, and the featured car drops straight into your garage. This page covers the mechanic, how to find the current location, which cars have been featured so far, and how to claim them without burning the whole Playlist.
How treasure cars work in FH6
Every Festival Playlist season has a treasure car. To claim it, you unlock the treasure-chest task by completing a chain of Playlist activities (races, Stories, photo challenges, online events). When the task finishes, the game gives you a hint — sometimes a visual riddle, sometimes a wide map area — and you drive there to find the chest. The car is delivered automatically when you reach it.
Treasure cars are free once unlocked. The cost is your time in the Festival Playlist that season.
Where the treasure car locations come from
Playground Games designs a new chest location every season, so map guides expire quickly. We do not ship a static treasure-car map — community-maintained trackers on r/ForzaHorizon and the official Forza forums update inside hours of each new season dropping. Pair that with the in-game hint and you usually find the chest in 5 minutes.
How treasure cars relate to the rest of the FH6 roster
Treasure cars are confirmed entries on the official Forza Horizon 6 car list. They appear on the source with class, year, make and model the same as any base-roster or pack car — the only difference is the unlock route. Some treasure cars carry the Forza Edition tag when they are special-edition variants with extra mods. Others are Promotional DLC code entries that double as treasure rewards.
Frequently asked questions
What are treasure cars in Forza Horizon 6?
Treasure cars are Festival Playlist reward cars that you claim by completing a specific Playlist task and then finding a treasure chest at a hinted location on the map. The chest contains the featured car for that season. They are typically rare or special-edition vehicles that are otherwise hard to obtain.
How do I find the FH6 treasure car location?
Playground Games gives you a riddle or visual hint when you unlock the treasure chest task. You drive to the area, find the chest, and the car is delivered to your garage. The exact map coordinate moves each season, so any 'fixed' map you see online is for the current season only. We link to the live community Playlist tracker rather than republishing stale coordinates.
Are treasure cars free?
Yes — once you complete the unlock task, the treasure car is delivered free of credits. The catch is that the task usually requires Series-Pass-level Playlist progress, so casual players sometimes miss the window. After the season ends, the treasure car can still appear later in the Backstage Pass, Festival Playlist re-runs, or the Auction House.
Which cars have been treasure cars in FH6 so far?
Treasure car selections rotate every season (roughly monthly). Watch the Forza weekly news posts and the in-game Festival Playlist for the current pick. We log known treasure cars on the updates feed when the source confirms them.
Do I have to play every week to get the treasure car?
You only need to complete the specific treasure-chest task for that season, not every Playlist activity. The task usually requires moderate effort (a couple of races, photo challenges, or convoy events). If you miss the window, the car can still come back through the Backstage Pass, Forzathon Shop, or future Playlist seasons.
