First cars revealed for Forza Horizon 2
Man, there are a bunch of rides that are going to be included in Playground Games' forthcoming Xbox One sequel. In fact, just the first hundred have been revealed today, with more on the way in the weeks ahead.
Worried that there aren't going to be enough cars in the Xbox One sequel Forza Horizon 2? Silly drivers. Playground Games and Microsoft revealed a list today of the first hundred (!) cars that will be playable in the game, and have promised more to come in the weeks ahead. Now you just need to set aside the time to play them all.
The game features a variety of cars to collect, customize and drive, including Group B rally legends, offroaders, American muscle cars and fancy foreign vehicles, including the 2015 Lamborghini Huracan that appears on the cover.
Playground Games detailed a couple of the cars on the Xbox Wire page, and you can find pics and full descriptions below:
1973 Renault Alpine A110 1600S
Prior to 1973, Alpine was its own make, purveyed by Jean Redele, who had achieved notable success racing Renault 4CVs, including class wins at the Mille Miglia and the Coupe Des Alpes. In 1954, Redele formed the Societe Anonyme des Automobiles Alpine and the Alpine was born. Alpine always worked closely with Renault and always utilized Renault mechanicals, so the assimilation of the two was a natural progression. The Alpine scored international recognition as it took several wins throughout Europe in the first international rally championship and would later win the first World Rally Championship. Set aside the Alpine's astounding championship winning performance and you still have a sleek, mid-engine Berlinetta with flowing body lines that demand attention.
1945 Jeep Willys MB
As tensions heightened during the 1930s, the U.S. Army asked automakers to deliver a replacement for its aging light armor division. At the time, the division was mostly comprised of motorcycles—some with sidecars—and many Model T Fords. By 1940, the division had formalized its vehicle requirements to include the following specs: four-wheel-drive, a wheelbase of no more than 80 inches, a minimum payload of 660 lbs. and minimum torque of 85-ft-lbs. Lastly, the vehicle had to weigh no more than 2,160 pounds empty. The original design was contrived by American Bantam Car Company but, due to a lack of production capacity and fiscal stability, the U.S. government assumed legal rights to the design and contracted with Willys-Overland and later Ford to produce their variations the Willys MA—Military A, and later MB. The origin of the term “Jeep” has more than one influence. One clearly points to the Ford designation Gee- P. The second comes from the popular Popeye cartoons of the era. “Eugene the jeep” was Popeye’s jungle pet who could solve difficult problems with his ability to move between dimensions. Much as the implementation of the Jeep did for the military.
