Forza Horizon 5 boasts an expansive roster of nearly 900 vehicles, but tucked between the high-performance supercars and rugged off-roaders are some truly bizarre automotive creations. These cars aren’t just rare — they’re downright strange, challenging conventional car design with quirky engineering and eccentric aesthetics. Whether you’re a collector, a curious racer, or just in it for the laughs, here are the weirdest cars you can drive in Forza Horizon 5 — and why each one deserves a spin.

1. Peel Trident (1965) – Micro Marvel

If Forza Horizon 5 had a sense of humor, it would be personified by the Peel Trident. Weighing just 160 kg and equipped with a laughably underpowered engine, this three-wheeled microcar is more of a novelty than a performance machine. The Trident’s transparent bubble canopy and compact frame make it look like it drove out of a 1960s sci-fi movie. Available in the Autoshow for just 25,000 CR, it’s one of the cheapest — and smallest — thrills in the game.

2. BMW Isetta 300 Export (1957) – The Egg on Wheels

The BMW Isetta may wear a German badge, but its spirit is pure whimsy. Dubbed the “bubble car,” its odd, egg-shaped body and single front-hinged door stand out in a sea of sleek coupes and rugged trucks. Clocking in at a modest 55 mph, it’s not built for racing — but cruising in it is a nostalgic joy. At 45,000 CR, it’s a tiny investment for a huge smile.

3. Reliant Supervan III (1972) – A Balancing Act

Ever wondered what it’s like to drive a car that practically topples over if you sneeze? Enter the Reliant Supervan III. This notorious three-wheeler is as hard to control as it is entertaining. Thanks to its unstable frame and motorcycle engine, keeping it upright is half the challenge — and all the fun. At 35,000 CR, it’s a comedic ride you’ll love to hate.

4. Morgan 3 Wheeler (2014) – Style Meets Oddity

Looking for a vehicle that blends vintage charm with modern quirks? The Morgan 3 Wheeler fits the bill. While it retains the three-wheel layout of the Peel and Reliant, it handles much more confidently — and faster too, with a top speed of 114 mph. Lightweight and semi-practical, it’s weird with a purpose, priced at 50,000 CR in the Autoshow.

5. Mercedes-Benz Unimog U5023 (2014) – Industrial Explorer

Forget sports cars — if you want to explore every dusty trail and remote hillside in Mexico, the Unimog U5023 is your ironclad companion. While it tops out at 78 mph and handles like a tank, this utility vehicle excels at tackling rough terrain. It’s more about the journey than the speed, and for 100,000 CR, it offers a uniquely meditative off-roading experience.

6. Hot Wheels Bone Shaker (2011) – Toy Box Terror

The Bone Shaker is the stuff of Hot Wheels legend. Though it looks like it came straight off a toy shelf, this custom rat rod is fully functional in Forza Horizon 5, boasting excellent performance (166 mph top speed) and striking design. Built in real life and immortalized in-game, it’s both collectible and competitive — not bad for 150,000 CR.

7. Bugatti Type 35 C (1926) – Vintage Vibes

The Bugatti Type 35 C is less weird, more wondrous — a rolling relic from nearly a century ago. Despite its age, it carries a certain elegance and charm unmatched by modern designs. Hand-crank details, an open cockpit, and classic racing lineage make this 1.3 million CR car a museum piece you can actually drive.

8. AMG M12S Warthog CST (Fictional) – From Halo to Horizon

Straight from the Halo universe, the AMG M12S Warthog is a futuristic beast. Featuring a military-grade aesthetic and absurd off-road stability, it’s one of the few fictional vehicles in Forza Horizon 5 — and one of the most fun to drive. With a price tag of 850,000 CR, it’s a luxury, but one you won’t regret.
