Hennessey announced the end of the Venom GT’s
production run, named ‘Final Edition’.
The Hennessey Venom GT Final Edition is finished in
a “Glacier Blue” paintjob with white stripes while taking its power by a
monstrous twin-turbo 7.0-litre V8 with a total of 1,451 hp. The Texan company
has already sold the last Venom GT for the price of US$ 1,2 million, with the
total production run to include six hardtops and six roadsters, plus one
running prototype.
Combining a kerb weight of just 2,743 lbs with
frightening levels of power gave the Hennessey Venom GT a few titles, including
the world’s fastest two-seat sports car in 2014 when it topped out at 270.4 mph and
the world’s fastest open-top vehicle in 2016 when it reached 265.6 mph.
Hennessey’s Venom F5 is going to be the next
chapter, with the company saying that it will offer 1,500 hp, a 290 mph top speed
and a 0-60 mph in 2 seconds flat when it reaches a very limited production run.
