Two cars from the Barbie film to be added to Forza Horizon 5
Forza Horizon 5 will feature two new cars that will be used to promote the upcoming Barbie film.
Here's What We Know
Don Joewon Song, a popular racing YouTuber, reported that both cars have been added to the list of available cars in the game, although they are not yet available. VGC has verified this information and can confirm that both cars are present in the Horizon Promo menu, which displays images of each car in the game.
There are now two new items in the car section: The Barbie Movie Corvette EV 1956 Chevrolet and the Barbie Movie Hummer EV Pickup 2022 GMC. There is currently no way to obtain these cars, but there will likely be a promotional event planned soon where players can receive the cars as gifts to promote the film or complete special missions to unlock them.
Forza just casually adding a Barbie EV Corvette...

A little strange as this wasn't announced anywhere during the Official-Forza stream.

Although the promotion may seem a bit unexpected, it makes sense given that Barbie is a product of Mattel, the toy manufacturer that also owns the Hot Wheels brand.
