From Texas, the preparer but also car manufacturer Hennessey announces news in its range. After confirming the delivery of the first 10 units of the Venom F5 Coupé, the time has come to climb a step in his particular battle against Bugatti and Koenigsegg. And to achieve this, there is nothing better than looking at the circuits, thus giving life to a Hennessey Venom F5 Revolution that promises to be one of the fastest hypercars on the track.
With manufacturing at full capacity starting in 2022, but promising to pick up the pace in 2023, Hennessey plans to complete the planned 24-unit run of the F5 coupe and start with the first 30 units of the F5 Roadster. At this time, 10 cars in coupé bodies have already been delivered and this 2023 Hennessey intends to have another 20 cars ready, adding others from now on. 24 cars of the new F5 Revolution that will begin to be assembled in 2024.
The idea behind the F5 Revolution is to optimize its possibilities for track performance, which is why a new carbon fiber aerodynamic package where stands out a huge rear wing with the possibility of manual adjustment, an extended diffuser, addition of splitter and fins on the front bumper or the upper air intake for the engine. Chassis and electronics tuning have also been revised under the supervision of John ‘Heinrocket’ Heinricywell-known ex-General Motors engineer involved in the development of cars such as the Corvette Z06 or the Cadillac CTS-V.

The one that does not receive any changes is the Fury propellant, a 6.6 V8 Twin-Turbo capable of developing a whopping 1,842 hp, a huge power that is transferred to the ground through a 7-speed automatic transmission connected to the rear axle. Hennessey has not declared performance figures for this new version of circuits, but even taking into account the increase in downforce (363 Kg at 400 km/h), we should expect top speed figures well above 400 km/h and a acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in around 2.8 seconds.
The price of the Hennessey Venom F5 Revolution will be 2.7 million dollarswhich places it halfway between the F5 coupe (2.1 million) and the F5 Roadster (3 million).
