Hennessey Launches Production Of The VelociRaptoR 1000, A High-Power Super Truck
Texas-based hypercar manufacturer Hennessey has officially commenced production of the VelociRaptoR 1000, a high-performance version of the Ford F-150 Raptor. This model stands out as the company's most potent iteration of the Raptor, boasting an impressive 1,043 bhp. Such power enables the VelociRaptoR 1000 to deliver supercar-level acceleration, clocking a 0-60 mph sprint in just 3.1 seconds and completing a quarter-mile run in 11.4 seconds at a speed of 122 mph.
The engineering team at Hennessey has significantly upgraded the Raptor R's powertrain to achieve these figures. Enhancements include a 3.8-liter supercharger, a high-flow air induction system, and a bespoke engine management calibration by Hennessey. Beyond performance upgrades, the VelociRaptoR 1000 features aesthetic and functional modifications such as a 3-inch lift kit, custom VelociRaptor bumpers, Hennessey wheels, and robust off-road tires.
Additional upgrades include power fold-out steps and exclusive VelociRaptoR 1000 badging. Each vehicle comes with a comprehensive 3-year/36,000-mile warranty, ensuring peace of mind for buyers. John Hennessey, Founder and CEO of Hennessey, has dubbed the VelociRaptoR 1000 the "apex predator of pick-up trucks," likening its performance to that of the iconic Porsche 911 Turbo S.
With a history of modifying F-150 Raptors since 2009, Hennessey has established itself as a leader in the modified performance truck market. The VelociRaptoR 1000 is a testament to the company's 33 years of experience in enhancing vehicle performance. Rigorous testing and development have been undertaken to guarantee the truck's quality and reliability.
Prospective buyers can place their orders for the VelociRaptoR 1000 through authorized Ford retailers or directly with Hennessey. The production is capped at 500 units, making this model an exclusive addition to any collection. For those seeking even more performance, an optional upgrade includes a performance brake kit with powerful 6-piston Brembo brakes.
Hennessey Special Vehicles, a division dedicated to creating world-record-breaking hypercars like the Venom GT and Venom F5, showcases the brand's prowess in automotive excellence. Additionally, Hennessey's Tuner School offers educational programs for individuals aspiring to careers in automotive performance and racing.
