"To honor Brabham’s 70-year heritage in racing, the BT62 has been carefully designed for the driver who strives to challenge themselves as company founder Sir Jack Brabham did when he began his racing career in Australia in 1948. If you’re looking for a car that boosts your driving experience to the next level, then look no further and act fast, because only 70 of these BT62s will be produced with the first 35 adorned in liveries celebrating Brabham’s 35 Grand Prix winning cars. This mid-engine track car is powered by a Brabham 5.4-liter V8 engine capable of 700bhp and 492 ft-lb of torque. It’s perfectly optimized for performance, with aggressive aerodynamics delivering 2,645 lbs. of downforce. With the BT62, Brabham strived to enhance the behind the wheel experience, not control it. Therefore, it all comes down to the driver instead of the electronics. Its speed and power are maintained by you without any interference from the car’s software. If you’re confident, you can push it to its true limits – just as Australian Supercars race driver Luke Youlden did when he broke the closed-wheel lap record at Mount Panorama Circuit with a time of 1:58.68, eclipsing the fastest GT car by 0.621 seconds. After all, it’s dubbed “the world’s most track focused hypercar” and with the unprecedented speeds that are now possible in Forza Horizon 5 thanks to the new accelerative Speed Boosts found across Hot Wheels Park, there's no greater home to unleash the driving potential of Brabham’s BT62."—Official description[1]
The 2019 Brabham BT62 - abbreviated as Brabham BT62 '19 is a mid-engine, rear-wheel drive track car developed and manufactured by Brabham.
It appears in Forza Horizon 5 as part of the Hot Wheels expansion and in Forza Motorsport (2023).
Synopsis[]
The BT62 is a low-production track day-only sports car produced by Brabham Automotive since 2018. It is powered by a tuned 5.4L Ford Modular V8 mated to a 6-speed Hollinger sequential manual transmission and is assembled in Adelaide, Australia.
It celebrations Brabham's racing heritage dating back to the 1960s with Sir Jack Brabham. With seventy cars slated to be produced, the first thirty-five cars will be finished in the liveries of Brabham's thirty-five winning Formula One cars, with the rest done to customer specifications.
Priced at about USD$1.4 million, a number of variants of the BT62 have been produced, including a number intended for competition, as well as a road legal conversion.
