Reward cars

One of this week’s Season Progress reward cars is a rally legend. At 20 points, you can win the #2 Audi Sport quattro S1, one of the most iconic Group B rally cars that dominated the WRC 1980s thanks to its pioneering 4WD system. The high-performance BMW X6 M ’15 SUV is also unlocked at 40 points. 

Six more cars can be won in Festival Playlist challenges, from hot hatches to off-road warriors and some of Ken Block’s most iconic Hoonigan cars.

Completing The Trial gives you the Honda Civic Type R '18, while conquering the Utopia Gardens Event Lab event unlocks Ken Block’s Hoonigan Ford Escort Group A rally monster from Gymkhana 10.

You can also add the Ford Racing Puma ’99 and Ken Block’s Hoonigan Gymkhana 9 Ford Focus RS RX to your collection by completing the Seasonal Championships. Completing a Horizon Open Customised Race in any Hoonigan car unlocks the vintage Hoonigan Chevrolet Bel Air ’55. 

There is also a Hot Wheels Seasonal Championship event that rewards you with the Mosler MT900S #10 supercar along with multiple Super Wheelspins to win.
