Strange to me that the devs have put so much into hyping up the EVs in this game without ever adjusting the broken pi system for them. I would have enjoyed a lot of the new cars they added if they were even remotely viable online
im 100% sure on the back end these car companies are like hey hype up this EV for car enthusiast since IRL most of these cars are either faulty or boring the only way they could fix EVs in this game would be to allow you to change the torque balance and the electric motors pretty much like Cheta mode on the telsas but those modes kill the cars battery life like crazy and is not recommended for long term use. The PI system in this game is broken has been for the last 3 games and doesnt scale well with other cars and different engine swaps because it only calculates the PI on engine size and if it's turbo.
@@1_spugy ev's in forza horizon have been consistently underpowered in online racing for years, because of the way the game calculates performance ranking. in fh5 the devs have put in a lot of effort focusing on the ev's, adding at least one every month and giving us a dedicated EV rivals monthly event, but they haven't changed the way performance ranking is calculated for EVs so they're still useless from a competitive standpoint

Only problem I think with it, u can't take ur foot off of the accelerator for even a millisecond... The devs probably just decrease the time taken to put the power down to the wheels... It feels really good if u can just throw it around, yeet other cars off track, and just abuse the track limits as much as possible...

Might suck at racing, but it goes almost 240mph modded so if you add a cage and off road mods to make it 9900lbs it’s a damn good battering ram. It will even push buses around!

Man.. forza's electric car pi system needs a more needed rework/buff then the stock engines rework/buff, i understand that everyone and their mom hates electric cars but still, not even one electric car in this game is actually at least a great car and that's just sad
The only reason for this ev to struggle to achieve high speeds is because the system is trying to streamline its power consumption at higher speeds to extend battery life( even though the battery won't drain). If you go into first person then look at the display above the g- meter you'll see how much power currently being used. Once you get up to speed the orange bar drops like a rock you'll feel the power from the moter gradually weaken at high speeds.
That is just a cockpit HUD animation based on speed. If you open the car's telemetry (which tells you your car's current horsepower vs RPM while driving), it is using full power until the top speed. There is no reduction in horsepower. Forza's physics engine dates back to Forza Motorsport 2 and currently it does not accurately simulates hybrid or EV's power train.
I haven't driven this car much yet, but I don't think this is as bad as some other EVs. Sure, the F150 Lightning is definitely better everywhere, but this car is not awfully bad, and it can be enjoyable. At least in my opinion for A class CC. Additional side note edit: I use a tune that uses full weight reduction and no power upgrades. I believe the 1300 hp one is without weight reduction
To be fair, the last time I was in off road online lobby, the meta car was one of those old Italian formula one cars, with AWD and off-road tyres. And the two guys at the front of each race won by nearly a minute, each race. Its Forza Horizon.
Actually I managed to win races with some EV cars (mostly NIO EP9), also breaking my own records made with Jesko using the Nevera. Maybe its because 1 gear due the ev motor, and thats why is difficult to drive at first.
I won a couple of races with it, but the other players kinda sucked i guess, it's fun to slide around and then go full power so it doesn't touch the wall. It's fun to use, but does feel like you are driving a house on wheels as brakes on this thing are useless, it's either drift or drift and then full power, no other way around.

“Truck is awful” *Come in 1st in race one, with the fastest lap* Edit: And won the second race, came 2nd the third, both street races mind you, and won the 4th. Seems like a plenty fast truck to me
hey isad, a question i got that i can't find good answers for online. i can't control high accel cars at launch/low speeds, since, well their acceleration is too high and i keep sliding out with the rev going at its limit. so, how do you manage those cars? like maybe s2 rwd and all... would appreciate a reply, and thanks!
Its an annoying feature but it makes sence since without this feature and you drive this hummer with damage set to realistic the big ass motors will eat chunks out of the power supply to move.
The Extreme E cars are the only EVs that are actually broken. Before my subscription ended, I used to win Dirt and Off-road races online with the Extreme E cars almost all the time, while trying to drive clean.
I've been enjoying it as a fun novelty vehicle so far, pretty much my FH5 replacement for the Gurkha at the moment. Having a 3 Ton+ Brick hurling down the Volcano at over 300kph entertains me way more than it should, the very fact that Race Weight Reduction removes an entire ton is also pretty funny. An interesting fact about it is that Installing the Rally Suspension Upgrade doesn't actually get rid of the 4 Wheel Steering. All the other 4WS Cars lose it with any Suspension Upgeades except the Hummer for some reason, I assume it's because the Devs think it needs it to turn at a decent rate. I wonder if we'll see this carry forward for future 4WS Cars or if the Hummer will remain unique in that aspect.
I am surprised that you can even get into the lobbies, with all the developers claimed, 20 million players fighting for a place. I bet that they only counted the downloads of the game, because that number is a lot higher than the real player count.
People need to realize that FH isnt a pure racing game, so every car that gets released isnt meant to be competitive online. Drive this truck with a wheel and you will see that its kinda fun and different. -A dude who kinda hates EVs
Don’t y’all get tired of driving the same old cars that’s in every single racing game? I like the EVs. Something new/different. I don’t need another damn Ford, Porsche, Ferrari or mass market appeal vehicle.

One is about car balance. The other is about a game breaking bug that completely destroys a class. How about making EVs performance balanced along with the ICE vehicles?
Another slow EV that is also, awful at everything
Oof lol 😂
that’s the future
Welcome to EV's...
Dont expect 5 ton to be fast lol
Is it at least decent in CC?
you forgot to mention the best part, its hitbox is bugged so going over certain bumps can flag laps / give you slowdowns
"bust your ass for this broken car we won't bother fixing until we add it to FH6, except it'll be slow as dicks there too" -PGG probably
@@Dr_Monitor I stopped grinding for cars because most of these cars are novelty cars with Really no uses unless there testing them for horizon 6.
Touching a wall slightly can result in a 6 second slowdown penalty.
