- 2 months ago
Hennessey Venom F5 Revolution is Introduced as a Track Focus with More Downforce.
Hennessey Venom F5 Coupe, chassis 02/24, will be offered for sale on Friday, March 2nd at 6:30pm EST at Broad Arrow Auctions in Amelia Island, FL. This is the first Venom F5 to be offered at a public auction and will be sold with NO RESERVATIONS. There are only 24 examples of the Venom F5 Coupe and have been sold since 2021. This is a rare opportunity to own America's hypercar, built in Texas by the Hennessey Specialty Vehicles team.
Each one costs $2.7 million, and Hennessey will only produce 24 of them.
Hennessey's Venom F5 family welcomes its third in the garage. The Venom F5 Revolution breaks new ground with a track-focused version that Hennessey has redesigned for more downforce and improved handling.
Powering the new track-focused Venom F5 is Hennessey's twin-turbocharged 6.6-liter "Fury" V8 engine, calibrated for competitive use. It produces 1,817 horsepower (1,355 kilowatts) and 1,193 pound-feet (1,617 Newton meters) of torque, the same as the rest of the lineup. But while the Revolution offers the same output as its road-focused siblings, it's the lightest of the bunch, weighing under 3,000 pounds (1,360 kilograms).
Hennessey made most of the changes to the car's aerodynamics and suspension. A large, adjustable full-width rear wing with end plates helped the automaker increase the car's downforce, delivering more than 800 lbs (362 kg) at 186 miles per hour (300 kilometers per hour). This figure increases to 1,400 lbs (635 kg) of downforce at 249 mph (400 km/h). Power is transferred to the rear wheels via an automatic single-clutch transmission.
Hennessey installed a larger carbon fiber splitter up front to prevent air from flowing under the car. The rear diffuser helps direct the air entering underneath. Plunge planes in front of the front wheels help increase grip, while a roof-mounted intake scoop feeds air into the engine bay.
The car features Hennessey's customized double-wishbone suspension with more aggressive alignment settings. The company has also equipped it with adjustable shock absorbers, allowing trackside calibration to be done with simple tools. New, larger alloy wheels provide a greater contact patch, improving the car's cornering and stopping capabilities.
Hennessey will ship the F5 Revolution with a built-in rail telemetry system that allows real-time monitoring. Tracks lap time, intervals, cornering G-forces and other information.
