The 1962 Peel P50 is a rear-wheel drive microcar by Peel.
It appears in Forza Horizon 4 as a summer-only Barn Find and in Forza Horizon 5 as part of Series 2.
Synopsis[]
The Peel P50 is a three-wheeled microcar manufactured from 1962 to 1965 by the Peel Engineering Company. It was originally created to be a city car, designed for one person and a single shopping bag. Only 50 of the vehicles were created during those years with only 27 known to still exist.
The original models did not have reverse, but had a handle on the rear of the car, allowing it to be maneuvered by hand. The P50 features a 49 cc DKW engine[1] with a top speed of 37 mph (60 km/h). It was re-manufactured in 2010 and although similar in most ways, this newer version includes a reverse gear to to make them street legal. Unlike the actual 1962 model of this vehicle, the in-game rendition has a reverse gear and a top speed of 43 mph (70 km/h).
Performance[]
The P50's in-game top speed of 43 mph makes it the slowest car in Forza Horizon 4. Its small size makes it useful for collectables located in narrow locations where regular cars may not fit.
When the normal engine is swapped for the I4 Motorbike Engine, it drastically improves in acceleration and top speed, with a 0 to 60 miles per hour time of 2 to 3 seconds, and capable of a top speed in the 100 mile per hour range. However, this newfound performance comes with a drastic reduction in control, making it very easy to spin out.
