A new set of challenges is now available in Forza Horizon 5, as the second week of Series 37 has got underway.
The official name for the month’s events is “High Performance Dailies”, and it’s all about cars you can drive quickly and have fun in every day of the week. Most of the challenges feature or reward these vehicles, generally as range-topping, performance variants of more ordinary cars.
There’s a slightly smaller offering by way of new vehicles this month, with only four new cars. Each is available for hitting 20pt in each of the four seasons as usual, but there’s no fifth new vehicle as an overall Series reward. There’s also no new DLC pack for the first time in a while.
That said, there is an expansion in the race offerings available, with four new Apex Racing routes making their debuts this month. You’ll also find new Accolades for each too.

Series 37: High Performance Dailies
Each of the four seasons this Series is worth 72 points, adding up to a total of 288pt — which is the joint-lowest we’ve seen yet in 2024.
Bear in mind that this is inclusive of the 56pt available from the DLC packs, so you will need only 232pt in order for the Series to be classed as complete. As a fun fact, this week’s new season also sees the total points available in the game’s lifetime hit the 10,000 mark.
Both of the overall reward cars are Playlist exclusives but not new to the game having appeared previously. That’s the BMW M2 for 80pt across the Series, and the all-electric Lucid Air Sapphire at 160pt in total.
Series 37 Autumn/Storm Season Rewards
You’ll pick up the new Toyota Camry TRD if you earn 20 points across all of this season’s challenges, with the Lexus LC500 returning as a Playlist reward when you hit 40pt. Note that this will require every point you can earn if you don’t have access to online multiplayer or either of the DLC packs.
Autumn will run until 1430UTC on Thursday August 29, while Series 37 will continue for a further two weeks until the same time on Thursday September 12.
Series 37 Autumn Playlist: Forzathon Events
This week’s Forzathon Weekly Challenge requires the HSV Gen-F GTS 2014. Each of the seven Daily Challenges — one new event each day at 1430 UTC — awards its usual point.
While the challenges don’t appear too difficult, the “Rulebreaker” task starting on Sunday is a little ambiguous and could refer to either a specific type of sign (for the “Road Open” Skill) or any regular road traffic sign.

Series 37 Autumn Playlist: Season Events
Of the 37pt available in Season Events you’ll need at least an Xbox Live Core subscription (unless you play on PC) in order to access online multiplayer for half of them.
Both are online team championship events, with The Trial set against six “Unbeatable” AI players and Horizon Tour with the easier “Highly Skilled” variety. You’ll need a B Class (601-700PI) Daily Driver for the former event, which is a best-of-three, while the Tour has rotating event hoppers for which you’ll have to hope you have a suitable car.
The PR Stunts all require an A Class (701-800PI) Modern Muscle vehicle, and all are focused on speed. Keep the pace up as you approach the two Traps, and cut as much as you dare through the Speed Zone.
Two Seasonal Championships require an A Class (701-800PI) Super Saloon for Saloon Go Vroom and a B Class (601-700PI) Modern Sports Car for B Fast B Furious. Both are black-top races, but the latter event is a Street Racing challenge so watch out for AI traffic.
Finally there’s a single EventLab challenge, this week based on EventLab Island. This community-created custom course has been selected by Playground Games for the unique challenge it poses.
