Test Drive 6 was a speedy release to capitalize on the Test Drive name. Includes a few songs from popular bands. Many licensed cars are also featured in this game. Such of these are Dodge, Ford and many others. Tracks are featured from all over the world and are unlockable through tournaments.

Of all the games in the series, this one received bad reviews from critics due to lackluster graphics (in the console versions; the PC version look fine, especially with a good graphics card), overly-reused soundtrack that loop during gameplay (the console versions featured both instrumental and lyric versions of all songs, the instrumental versions were used while racing, the lyrical ones were used in the menus), sluggish and choppy frame rate, and unrealistic gameplay, despite the fact that the game leans more towards being arcade than simulation. Despite these criticisms, it features better controls and gameplay than Test Drive 5.
