7 Demonic Cars From Hennessey

1. Jaguar F-Type HPE600

Engine size: 5.0-litre supercharged V8
Power: 616bhp
Torque: 597lb ft
0-60mph: 3.2 seconds

A high-flow air filter, ECU tweak and a supercharger pulley upgrade turns the standard F-Type R into a proper brute.

Engine size: 5.2-litre supercharged V8
Power: 808bhp
Torque: 657lb ft
0-60mph: 3.3 seconds

Compression forged aluminum pistons and forged steel connecting rods give this Ford V8 the strength it needs to take this Mustang to a different dynasty to its EcoBoost cousin.

3. Dodge Viper Venom 1000 Twin Turbo

Engine size: 8.4-litre twin-turbocharged V10
Power: 1120bhp
Torque: 1092lb ft
0-60mph: 2.7 seconds

As if the Viper needed any more savagery, the guys at Hennessey have slapped a couple of turbochargers that take it past first-generation Veyron power output.

4. Hennessey VelociRaptor 650 Supercharged

Engine size: 3.5-litre twin-turbocharged V6
Power: 650bhp
Torque: No one even knows
0-60mph: No one seems to care

This Frankenstein of a truck has no real uses apart from towing small countries to different areas of the globe.

5. Cadillac CTS-V HPE1000

Engine size: 6.2-litre supercharged V8
Power: 1000bhp
Torque: Well over 800lb ft
0-60mph: under 3 seconds

This Caddy has double the power of most stock super saloons and would happily eat M5s for breakfast.

Engine size: 6.2-litre supercharged V8
Power: 1008bhp
Torque: 823lb ft
0-60mph: 2.5 seconds

A corvette with over 1000bhp? Yes please.

Engine size: 7.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8
Power: 1244bhp
Torque: 1155lb ft
0-60mph: 2.4 seconds
Top Speed: 270mph

This Lotus Exige-based hypercar took the title of fastest production car from Bugatti in 2014 (sort of) and has yet to be surpassed. The floor is yours, Mr Chiron…

Bonus: Hennessey Venom F5

Built in direct response to the Bugatti Chiron, the F5 is projected to have around 1451bhp which has been calculated to produce a top speed of around 290mph. With Bugatti setting the rumour-mill going about a possible 300mph target, it seems like Hennessey’s previous ‘world record’ is about to get decimated, which is where the F5 can step in and regain the crown for the Texan tuner.
