Most Expensive Hennessey Cars

The Hennessey F5 Venom is a jaw-dropping hypercar capable of reaching speeds over 300 mph. This extraordinary machine is the brainchild of John Hennessey, a Texan tuner with 30 years of experience in bringing staggering horsepower to various trucks and muscle cars. The F5 Venom is an entirely bespoke creation, representing the most extreme combustion-engined supercar ever imagined.

Performance:

The F5 Venom features a 6.6-liter twin-turbo V8 engine named "Fury," which delivers a mind-blowing 1,817 bhp. The car's carbon fiber construction ensures a lightweight body, tipping the scales at just 1,360 kg dry. With a seven-speed single-clutch semi-automatic gearbox, the F5 Venom boasts an astonishing 0-62 mph in 2.6 seconds, 0-124 mph in 4.7 seconds, and 0-250 mph in 15.5 seconds.

Design and Tech Highlights:

The F5 Venom's design is deceptively simple and stripped back, featuring Brembo carbon-ceramic brakes, fixed-rate dampers, Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires, and forged aluminum wheels. The body is designed to minimize lift while maximizing aerodynamic efficiency, making it perfect for high-speed runs.

Driving Experience:

Driving the F5 Venom feels like strapping yourself to a rocket, with an exhilarating combination of power, noise, and sensations. The car's potent acceleration is matched by its handling capabilities, making it a genuinely enjoyable and thrilling experience on the road.

Interior:

The F5 Venom's interior is surprisingly well put-together, with a central screen for phone mirroring, a digital instrument dial, and plenty of carbon and leather. The cabin is more focused on delivering an engaging driving experience than luxury, but it still offers a sense of quality befitting a £1.9 million hypercar.

The Hennessey Venom F5 Roadster is the latest creation from Texas-based hypercar manufacturer Hennessey® Special Vehicles. Making its global debut at The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering in Monterey, California, the Venom F5 Roadster is based on the Hennessey® Venom F5 Coupe and shares almost identical mechanical features.

Distinctive Design and Performance

Setting the Venom F5 Roadster apart from its fixed-roof sibling are several attributes that differentiate the open-air model in terms of its physical appearance, cosmetics, and the emotional driving experience it offers. At the heart of the carbon-fiber monocoque chassis lies Hennessey’s celebrated twin-turbocharged, 6.6-liter ‘Fury’ V8 engine, which delivers an astonishing 1,817 bhp. The power is transmitted to the rear wheels via a robust automated single-clutch gearbox. With a dry weight of under 3,100 pounds, the Venom F5 Roadster promises exceptional performance and an engineered top speed exceeding 300 mph.

Hennessey anticipates that the Venom F5 Roadster will break the company’s own ‘world’s fastest convertible’ record of 265.6 mph, currently held by the Hennessey Venom GT Spyder.

Exclusive Features

The most striking difference between the F5 Roadster and its coupe counterpart is the new roofline. The F5 Roadster features a removable, rigid carbon fiber composite panel that is fully insulated against the elements and lined with soft Alcantara upholstery. The lightweight roof panel weighs just 18 lbs (8 kg), allowing for easy removal and installation by a single person.

Further distinguishing the Roadster from the Coupe are its unique wheels, forged from aluminum alloy and milled to perfection. The lightweight wheels showcase seven pairs of spokes, each resembling an elongated Hennessey® ‘H’. An optional upgrade to highly polished aluminum is available for those seeking an even more exclusive finish.

Limited Production and Pricing

The Venom F5 Roadster is slated for an exclusive production run of just 30 units, ensuring a unique ownership experience. Production will begin in late 2022, with high-speed validation testing planned as production reaches optimal levels.

Priced at $3 million, each of the 30 personalized Hennessey® Venom F5 Roadsters will be individually commissioned by their respective owners, offering an unparalleled level of exclusivity and performance in the hypercar market.
