The 2016 Aston Martin Vulcan Forza Edition (AM Vulcan FE) is a special Forza Edition variant of the Aston Martin Vulcan.[1]
Overview[edit | edit source]
Design and chassis[edit | edit source]
The AM Vulcan FE sports a metallic dark green paintjob with black mirrors and brass-colored ADV.1 ADV10.0 M.V1 CS rims.[1]
The AM Vulcan FE weighs 2,583 lb (1,172 kg), down 415 lb (188 kg) (-13.8%) from the standard Vulcan.[1] However, it retains the Vulcan's 54%/46% weight balance.
Its front and rear camber are now set to -2.0° and -1.0°, respectively, while it has a sharper front caster angle of 7.0°.[1] Its anti-roll bars have been changed, with the front at 37.19 and rear at 31.23.[1] The Vulcan FE has softer springs, with stiffness ratings of 782.6 lb/in (13.98 kgf/mm) at the front and 738.7 lb/in (13.19 kgf/mm) at the rear; in addition, it rides lower, with a front ride height of 1.6 in (4.1 cm) and a rear ride height of 2.4 in (6.1 cm).[1]
The Vulcan FE, however, has the same damping as the standard Vulcan.[1] It produces 150 lb (68 kg) of front downforce and 119 lb (54 kg) of rear downforce for a total of 269 lb (122 kg).[1] The rear differential is set to 25% for both acceleration and deceleration.[1]
Engine and drivetrain[edit | edit source]
The AM Vulcan FE sports the same naturally aspirated V12 as the standard Vulcan, but upgraded to 7,196 cc (7.2 L; 439.1 in3), 936 hp (698 kW), and 645 ft·lb (875 N·m) of torque.[1] It has a higher redline of 8,000 rpm and a fuel cutoff threshold of 9,200 rpm.[1]
Its drivetrain and gearing remain mostly unchanged from the Vulcan:[1]
- Final Drive: 3.43
- 1st: 2.83
- 2nd: 2.00
- 3rd: 1.57
- 4th: 1.27
- 5th: 1.06
- 6th: 0.90
Performance[edit | edit source]
- 0 - 60 mph (0 - 97 km/h): 2.7 seconds[1]
- 0 - 100 mph (0 - 161 km/h): 5.2 seconds[1]
- Top speed: 375 km/h (233 mph)[1]
- Lateral Gs: 1.59 @ 60 mph (97 km/h), 1.96 @ 120 mph (193 km/h)[1]
- Power-to-weight: 799 hp (810 PS; 596 kW) per tonne, 2.76 lb (1.25 kg) per horsepower
Gameplay[edit | edit source]
The AM Vulcan FE, as with every Forza Edition car, is an exclusive car. It is obtainable only through the #FORZATHON Shop, Horizon Wheelspin, Ranked Adventure, or Auction House. The Vulcan FE comes with a Clean Skills Boost.[1]
The AM Vulcan FE shares the same advantages and disadvantages as the standard Vulcan in Forza Horizon 4, except its Clean Skills Boost can be used to farm Skill Points in races, especially with all of the Vulcan FE's Car Mastery perks purchased. This makes the AM Vulcan FE one of four FE cars that can be used to farm both CR and Skill Points at the same time, with the others being the Pagani Zonda R Forza Edition, Maserati MC12 Forza Edition, and Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4 Forza Edition.
