A new YouTube video featuring Forza community manager Brian Ekberg reveals some interesting new plans for Forza Horizon 3 in January. In the video, Ekberg makes an announcement teasing one of the vehicles that will arrive in the next Forzathon event and January Car Pack.
"We will have an event in January that will star a BMW, in fact the most requested BMW in Forza history," Ekberg teased. "I'm giving you guys a little tease about that. It's part of the January car pack, and we don't typically announce those cars early, but in this case we're making an exception. There will be a Forzathon with this car in January and we'll announce next week on our Facebook and Twitter."
It's terrific to see the team at Forza respond to fan requests and we're excited to learn exactly what BMW fans are looking forward to racing most. That said, GTPlanet dug around the Forza Forums to share a thread with a list of some of the most requested vehicles for Forza Horizon 3. And what's at the top of that list? The BMW i8 hybrid sports car.
Of course, Forza could have its own analytics that point toward another BMW that fans want more, but for now, the novel turbo inline-3 hybrid sports car appears to be the ticket.
Earlier this month, Forza Horizon 3 just released its massive Blizzard Mountain expansion, which features a new area as well as seven in vehicles including the 2016 Ford GYMKHANA 9 Focus RS RX, 1965 Ford F-100 Flareside Abatti Racing Trophy Truck, 1975 Lancia Stratos HF Group 4, 1985 Lancia Delta S4 Group B, 2016 Nissan Titan Warrior Concept, 2016 RJ Anderson #37 Polaris RZR-Rockstar Energy Pro 2 Truck and 2016 Subaru #199 WRX STI VT15r Rally Car. A new Barn Find was also added in the expansion. To find out where it is, be sure to check out the Forza Horizon 3 Blizzard Mountain Barn Find location here.
