My FH5 Log: Realizing Voltage

The final week of the Forza Horizon 5 Horizon Creatives update featured the last two new-to-Forza electrified prize cars on the list; the BMW i4 and the Rivian R1S.

Yes, both of these prize cars are purely electric; one is a purely electric luxury liftback while the other is the SUV version of the R1T that I obtained a while back. Might be doing some comparisons later but anyway, let's get to know about the other two electric cars, now that I've got my hands on them.

Beginning with the BMW i4, which is the one I've obtained from the Horizon Creatives' Hot Season Playlist, this is basically an all-electric version of the BMW 4-Series Gran Coupe G26. The variant offered in FH5 is the eDrive40 and the electric motor that powers the rear wheels has 335hp of power and 317ft-lb of torque.

Lastly is the Rivian R1S, the PPV equivalent of the R1T. I also obtained from the Horizon Creatives' Hot Season Playlist as well. Like its truck equivalent, the R1S uses a bespoke platform that includes the battery pack, drive units, independent air suspension, active damping, and hydraulic roll control, among others, making it capable of driving through 3+ feet of water and can rock crawl a 100% grade, thanks to its 14.9-inch ground clearance. Seen here is the one with the Quad-Motor AWD with 10 driving modes, producing 835hp of power and 908lb-ft of torque, capable of sprinting from 0-60mph in three seconds and has 11,000lbs of towing strength.

Having got my word on these two electrified prize cars from the said playlist, it's time to give these two an electrifying workout by sending them to those custom EventLab challenges curated by the game masters behind the creations. The i4 will tackle a custom circuit curated by the game master Spacepacas while the R1S will tackle against a group of professional drivers in an offroad course curated by its game master Twisted Knot. Let's roll the tape.

If anyone's interested in one of these EventLab creations, here are the share codes:

So, now that the whole Horizon Creatives prize car collection is completed, I guess it's time for me to spend the last days of Horizon Mexico before getting ready for next week's Forza Motorsport game. Oh wait, I did have early access, am I right? Still, that would be spoilers to explain more about the new Forza Motorsport game because of early access but in the meantime, let's spend the final moments of this Horizon Mexico getaway while I still can. Let's party like it's...you get the idea. LET'S iGO!
