McLaren's latest '1' car, the W1, is heading to Forza Horizon 6 on 10 September as part of the British Automotive Series update for Microsoft Xbox's flagship racing title. The car will be available exclusively to players who own the Car Pass downloadable content pack, and it will be added directly to their in-game garage with this new vehicle release.

The McLaren W1 is described as the ground-breaking successor to two of the world's most iconic supercars, the F1 and P1, and as the ultimate expression of McLaren's core performance principles. According to the company, it was created to deliver class-defining performance, cutting-edge aerodynamics, and the latest lightweight chassis technologies. The result, McLaren says, is a supercar that delivers the highest levels of dynamic excellence and the purest driver connection.
