The Cars That Made The Fast Saga
The Fast & Furious movies have always been about more than just high-octane action. The cars are characters themselves, representing muscle, speed, culture, and innovation. From Dom’s endless line of Chargers to Han’s JDM icons, the franchise has showcased some of the most unforgettable vehicles in film history. Here’s our ranking of 25 of those cars.
25. Ford Escort RS1600 (Fast & Furious 6)
The Ford Escort RS1600, built for rally stages, used a lightweight body and a Cosworth 1.6-liter BDA engine producing just over 110 horsepower. In Fast & Furious 6, Brian uses the car’s nimbleness and handling to outrun heavily armed enemies, showing its strengths weren’t about raw horsepower but precision driving.
