To complete Hot Hatch-a Tea, use the 2021 Hyundai i20 N to finish four chapters: drive the car, earn four Speed Skills, win any Street Race, and complete three laps at Edamame Time Attack.
Hot Hatch-a Tea is the Autumn weekly challenge in the Horizon Mascot Party season of Series 4, live from August 20–27, 2026. Every chapter is built around one car — the 2021 Hyundai i20 N — so once you own it, the whole thing takes only a few minutes. Clear all four chapters and you bank 25,000 Credits and 5 points toward the Autumn playlist.

You need the 2021 Hyundai i20 N before anything else — it’s the only car that moves this challenge forward. It’s a cheap Autoshow buy, though the exact sticker is inconsistent between listings (somewhere in the mid-40k to 48,000 Credits range), and you can skip the cost entirely by winning it from the Scenic Nights championship this same week. Beyond the flat 25,000-Credit payout, your five playlist points feed the two Autumn reward cars below.
The four chapters at a glance
| Chapter | Objective |

| 1 | Own and drive the 2021 Hyundai i20 N |
| 2 | Earn four Speed Skills in the i20 N |
| 3 | Win any Street Race in the i20 N |
| 4 | Complete three laps at Edamame Time Attack |
Key Every chapter locks to the same car, so line the i20 N up once and knock the four out back to back. The walkthrough below runs them in the quickest order.
How to complete Hot Hatch-a Tea in Forza Horizon 6
Here’s the full run through all four Hot Hatch-a Tea chapters in the 2021 Hyundai i20 N, in the order that clears them fastest.
STEP 1/9
Get the 2021 Hyundai i20 N
Own it first, either buying it from the Autoshow or winning it free from the Scenic Nights championship this week.
STEP 2/9
Drive it to clear Chapter 1
Get into the i20 N at any festival site or player house, enter freeroam, and drive a few seconds down the road until Chapter 1 ticks over.
STEP 3/9
Set up on a fast straight
The drag strip beside the main Horizon Festival site works well, but any highway or long straight does the job.
STEP 4/9
Hit around 120 mph for four Speed Skills
Push the i20 N to roughly 120 mph to start banking Speed Skills — Great Speed, Awesome Speed and Ultimate Speed all count toward the four you need.
STEP 5/9
Find a Street Race on the map
Street Races show as purple icons; Festival Chase just north of the Horizon Festival site is a quick one.
STEP 6/9
Drop difficulty to Tourist and win in the i20 N
Lower the driver difficulty to Tourist in the settings, then win the race while driving the i20 N — nothing else is required.
STEP 7/9
Drive to Edamame Time Attack at Horizon Stadium
It sits at Horizon Stadium on the far west side of the map, the evolving-world time attack for the season.
STEP 8/9
Complete three laps inside the checkpoints
You don’t need a fast or clean lap — just finish three full laps, staying within the checkpoints so you don’t fail the run.
STEP 9/9
Leave or quit to trigger completion
After the third lap, head out of the stadium and fail or quit the time attack to fire the completion notification.
After your third lap at Edamame Time Attack, head out of the stadium and quit the time attack — the chapter only registers once you leave the run.

Optional tune codes and stadium shortcuts
| Code | Use |
|---|---|
| 156893457 | i20 N upgrade and tune package |
| 752 562 454 | Alternative B-class i20 N tune |
| 143403195 | Festival Chase blueprint locked to the i20 N |
None of these are needed to finish — the i20 N clears every chapter stock — but a matched tune makes the Street Race and time attack far easier, and a locked blueprint saves you setting car restrictions by hand. If you’d rather not pay the Autoshow price at all, winning the Scenic Nights seasonal championship (a Hot Hatch B-class street-racing event) hands you the same i20 N for free. And since Edamame Time Attack lives at Horizon Stadium, you can knock out the week’s nearby stadium collectibles challenge in the same trip.
Fixing stuck challenge progress
Almost every stall comes down to the wrong car. Progress only counts in the 2021 Hyundai i20 N — a different Hyundai or any other hot hatch won’t move a single chapter, and if you switch out of the i20 N to win the Street Race in something faster, that win won’t register either. For the time attack, remember the game tracks three complete laps, not just starting the event, so quitting after one or two laps resets you. And don’t wait on the plain “Speed Skill” pop-up alone: Great Speed, Awesome Speed and Ultimate Speed are all Speed Skills and each counts toward your four.
