I can see all 4 being cult cars, honestly

I'll bet that they'll all go into Cult Cars, making this pack an update for that category. The Pike Factory, even if it didn't really exist outside of maybe a small design team, is a force in Japanese car culture all on its own, so even if you did want to send them all into their unique categories you might end up confusing new Japanese players who aren't 'in the know' about them, and presumably Western fans who do know and would be perplexed as to why FH isn't acknowledging that shared heritage.
If I had to assign them categories though, here's how I'd place 'em.
Be-1: D 100 Retro Hot Hatch--even though the car is 'technically' a notchback two-door sedan, making it a great fit for Cult Cars anyway 'cause its design wouldn't fit anywhere else
Figaro: ~D 200 Retro Sports Cars
Pao: D 100 Retro Hot Hatch
S-Cargo: ~D 200 Vans and Utility

Early summary and assessment video.
I agree that linking unlocks to Skill Score in the Realms seems a bit err unimaginative? and doesn't really seem to add a lot of long term playability.
EDIT: How many push notices can we get @Edax 76 in one evening
Just seen this tonight bud. I had 3 notifications 😂

Oh, I know @pclark06 didn't ask for this bit too, but as for the Realms cars themselves, I'll take my best crack at placing those into categories too. Pictures for conveinence's sake:
2024 Lamborghini Revuelto: ~S1 890 Hypercars OR ~S2 900 Hypercars (I'm gonna be honest, PHEV assisted AWD aside this doesn't vibe with me as anything other than a cooler version of the Aventador Ultimae available in the Backstage Pass. Maybe if this car gets better handling or 10/10 Acceleration it could crack S2, which would be awesome, but I just kinda see it hangin' around the Aventador PI-wise.)
2023 Lamborghini Huracan Sterrato: ~S1 810 Rally Monsters (Everything I've dug up so far seems to point to this thing being higher-performance than its VAG stablemate, the 911 Daka--sorry, 911 Rallye--is. Having an Italian V10 helps, of course, but it sounds like this thing is far less tame than the Rallye, fitting since Lambo never entered anything into rallying or off-road racing in general and allegedly just made it because they could. Hence, I've given this thing the edge over the Rallye.)
2018 Lotus Exige Cup 430: ~A 770 Track Toys (There IS a case to be made for this thing being in Modern Sports Cars with the 2012 Exige, but considering how much more tuned this thing is than that Exige, even in comparison to other "sidegrade of existing car" victims like the RZ34 Nismo and Challenger Super Stock, I'll bet it goes right into A-class Track Toys to be a PI rival to the Lexus RC F and XKR-S GT, if one that wins on cornering and handling over top speed.)
2022 Hennessey Mammoth (Dodge Ram 6x6) ~A 730 Pickups and 4x4s (Because we didn't need any more Pickup and 4x4s in Horizon's line-up. At least these have been all A-class since the Saleen Sportruck dropped, but an electronically limited 130 MPH/~210 km/h top speed does give it a major downgrade in comparison to the Sportruck, in my opinion the king of that category. Hell you could even make an argument for it going into B-class since it's a 6x6 and not a 4x4 like the others are meaning it won't have nearly the same handling characteristics. Jury's out on that one though, we'll have to see when it drops.)
