+ 5Italian Automotive (Series 24) brings back 16 Italian cars from Alfa Romeo, Fiat, Abarth, and Lancia from past Forza games. Some are only available in the Autoshow and others can only be won in weekly playlist challenges for a limited time.
If you want more iconic Italian cars, the premium Italian Exotics Car Pack also includes seven new-to-Forza cars.

As always, two series progress cars are up for grabs at the end of the series: earn 80 points to win the Lamborghini Aventador SVJ and 160 points to earn the Ferrari F12TR.
Rewards
In keeping with the theme, every Autumn playlist reward car is Italian. This week’s Season Progress cars are the Abarth 131 (20 points) and Alfa Romeo 8C (40 points). These cars were not added to the Autoshow, so you only have seven days to unlock them.

As well as new cars, you can also win up to four Super Wheelspins in the main festival playlist plus a Pop ‘N’ Lock Emote, Raul Urias Horizon Cap, and Police Siren Car Horn.
