Hennessey may build an even more hardcore version of the Venom F5 hypercar with a greater focus towards on-track performance. During a recent interview with Top Gear, John Hennessey stated that the development of the Venom F5 continues and is occupying many of the tuner’s resources. This isn’t a huge surprise, especially when you consider the fact that the Venom F5 has a twin-turbocharged 6.6-liter V8 engine delivering 1,792 hp and 1,616 Nm of torque.
Hennessey has lofty ambitions for the Venom
F5 and wants to hit a top speed exceeding 500 km/h, a figure that
would allow it to reclaim the title of the world’s fastest production from the
SSC Tuatara. However, it’s not just in a straight-line where Hennessey wants to
see the car perform well as it also wants to bring it to the Nurburgring for a
hot lap.
