A strong Launch contender that's remarkably close to the top. Balanced and versatile across multiple track types.
The rankings above are based on stock performance data — every car shown is completely untuned, straight from the Autoshow. If a car ranks #1 for Launch in stock form, it has a natural advantage that's hard to overcome.
At ForzaLabs, we built an automated system that collects every upgrade and tuning option for every car in Forza Horizon 5 — thousands of parts across hundreds of vehicles.
In competitive online racing, nobody runs stock. The right combination of upgrades can transform a mid-tier car into a class leader. The question isn't "which car is best stock" — it's "which car is best after the optimal tune for my race?"
That's exactly what our full database answers. Enter your race restrictions — class limit, drivetrain rules, weather conditions — and we'll show you the optimal car and build.
Stop guessing which car to bring. Search our complete upgrade database to find the highest-performing build for any class, any restriction, any event.

If you're just starting out, the 2014 Mercedes-Benz Unimog U5023 at 100,000 CR is a strong entry point. The 2015 Mercedes-Benz #24 Tankpool24 Racing Truck leads at 5.8 Launch, but costs 300,000 CR.
