Hennessey Venom F5 Hypercar

The latest rendtion of the Hennessey Venom F5 hypercar has been revealed as the world’s most powerful internal combustion road car harnesses a claimed 2031 bhp and 1445 lb-ft torque from a re-engineered 6.6-liter twin-turbo V8. After a rigorous development program, the Hennessey Venom F5 emerges with enhanced performance, improved handling, advanced aerodynamics, and even optional touring upgrades for longer journeys.

Hennessey Venom F5: Engine, Suspension, Aerodynamics

Under the hood of the new Hennessey Venom F5 lies the ‘Fury’ powerplant, a 6.6-liter V8 co-developed by Hennessey and Ilmor Engineering. Precision 76/80 Next Gen turbos, billet aluminum internals, and titanium valves all contribute to the monstrous 2031 bhp output. Despite achieving radical speed (zero to 200 mph in 10.3 seconds), the powertrain is designed for durability and even potential endurance racing.

Equally noteworthy is the new mode-adaptive suspension that alters the hypercar’s chassis dynamics based on five selectable modes: Sport, Road Race, Drag, Wet, and F5. Whether you’re charging through corners or comfortably cruising, the suspension optimizes ride height, roll, pitch, and steering responsiveness for each driving scenario. This synergy is enhanced further by revised aerodynamics developed with Dr. Mark Handford, a veteran of Formula One and IndyCar. Underbody modifications, front dive planes, a Gurney lip spoiler, and redesigned front splitters maximize downforce, allowing the Hennessey Venom F5 to remain stable and composed at triple-digit speeds.

Hennessey Venom F5 Comfort, Touring Options, and Evolution Package

Mindful that owners may want more than just savage acceleration, Hennessey offers ‘Touring’ features designed for the modern driver. Opt for the Touring seats with bolstered leather upholstery, and you’ll discover that the Hennessey Venom F5 is not merely a track beast but a surprisingly livable hypercar suited for cross-country rallies. A carbon fiber cup holder, sports exhaust alternatives, and new interior trims elevate comfort while retaining the F5’s motorsport essence.

These and other enhancements are included in the F5 Evolution package, which boosts the car’s raw performance alongside new aerodynamic touches. Available on both new orders and existing Venom F5 models, the Evolution package is priced at $285,000, with further add-ons like the Touring upgrades offered separately.
