Ford #2069 Bronco R “Welcome Pack” 2020 (A)

• Performance Class & Rating: A / 800
• Speed: 6.1
• Handling: 3.9
• Acceleration: 8.8
• Launch: 9.9
• Braking: 5.4
• Offroad: 9.9

The Ford #2069 Bronco R “Welcome Pack” 2020 is almost an A-class masterpiece, featuring a near-perfect score of 9.9 for Offroad, perfect for blazing a trail of dust behind you as you race towards that finish line or for whenever you want a break from roads.

Jeep Trailcat 2016 (A)

• Performance Class & Rating: A / 744
• Speed: 6.2
• Handling: 3.9
• Acceleration: 5.5
• Launch: 4.1
• Braking: 4.0
• Offroad: 10

While the Jeep Trailcat packs a punch with a tip-top 10 score for those Offroad trails, it lags behind others on this list due to its set of underwhelming Launch, Braking, and Handling stats.

Local Motors Rally Fighter 2014 (A)

• Performance Class & Rating: A / 716
• Speed: 6.0
• Handling: 3.8
• Acceleration: 4.5
• Launch: 3.6
• Braking: 4.0
• Offroad: 10

The Rally Fighter might cost a fair few fewer Credits than the Jeep Trailcat while maintaining that 10 Offroad stat, you’ll likely need to tune up the rest of its other stats to ensure that you can race to the finish line without breaking much of a sweat. An underwhelming Launch stat of 3.6 is its most disappointing, but that perfect 10 for Offroad will have you sprinting for the win.

RJ Anderson No. 37 Polaris RZR-Rockstar Energy Pro 2 Truck 2016

• Performance Class & Rating: A / 776
• Speed: 5.9
• Handling: 3.7
• Acceleration: 4.5
• Launch: 4.2
• Braking: 5.1
• Offroad: 9.9

With such a long name, the RJ Anderson No. 37 Polaris RZR-Rockstar Energy Pro 2 Truck 2016 had better be a powerhouse at Offroad performance, and at 9.9, it does not disappoint. You’ll need to save up 500,000 Credits, though, and with some upgrades and tuning you’ll be right at home with this truck.

Ford #25 “Brocky” Ultra4 Bronco RTR 2017

• Performance Class & Rating: A / 748
• Speed: 4.7
• Handling: 4.1
• Acceleration: 6.1
• Launch: 5.2
• Braking: 5.2
• Offroad: 10

This Ford #25 “Brocky” Ultra4 Bronco RTR 2017 is everything offroad fans will need with a perfect 10 stat, alongside a cool 6.1 in Acceleration. While it has relatively middle-of-the-road Launch and Braking stats, at the same price as the Rockstar Energy Pro 2 Truck, you’re getting a slightly more even stats distribution right out of the gate without tune-ups.

Mercedes-Benz G 65 AMG 2013 (B)

• Performance Class & Rating: B / 639
• Speed: 5.9
• Handling: 3.2
• Acceleration: 6.6
• Launch: 8.0
• Braking: 3.2
• Offroad: 8.0

Looking for a bit of style alongside those offroad capabilities? Look no further than the Mercedes-Benz G 65 AMG. While its Offroad score of 8.0 might not hold up against some of the others on this list, you’ll be able to still ensure a smooth ride when deciding to take a break from Mexico’s streets.

AMG Transport Dynamics M12S Warthog CST 2554 (A)

• Performance Class & Rating: A / 719
• Speed:4.2
• Handling: 4.1
• Acceleration: 8.6
• Launch: 10
• Braking: 6.7
• Offroad: 10

If you’ve got a spare 850,000 Credits lying around, you’ll want to pick up the AMG Transport Dynamics M12S Warthog CST 2554. An absolute beast, both visually and in its performance, you’ll Launch right out of a race with a perfect 10 stat for that and its Offroad capabilities. With an Acceleration of 8.6, the second-highest on this list after the Bronco R, it only lags behind with its slow 4.2 Speed and 4.1 Handling.

Deberti F-150 Prerunner 2018 (B)

• Performance Class & Rating: B / 691
• Speed: 5.7
• Handling: 3.6
• Acceleration: 5.4
• Launch: 5.8
• Braking: 4.9
• Offroad: 9.9

Purely built for steady Offroad performance at a stat of 9.9, you’ll likely struggle when trying to take this one out against the others on this list in a race. But if you’re looking just to shoot the breeze and ride off into the sunset across Mexico’s vast desert, you’ll be right at home with the Deberti F-150 Prerunner 2018.

Ford #11 Rockstar F-150 Trophy Truck 2014 (A)

• Performance Class & Rating: A / 731
• Speed: 5.6
• Handling: 3.3
• Acceleration: 4.6
• Launch: 4.5
• Braking: 4.8
• Offroad: 9.1

The F-150 Trophy Truck might have the second-lowest Offroad score on this list (9.1) – but it’s still more than capable of handling what you throw at it both off and on the pavement, with its 5.6 Speed score sitting around the mid-point up against its competition here.

What’s the best offroad car in Forza Horizon 5?

This is purely based on in-game stats, though, not on potential customization. For example, you may be able to upgrade your Jeep Trailcat to be even more of a beast than the Bronco.
