[float=center][hr]Overall Rating: | Price v8What is it V What makes this car interesting? In the realm of high-performance machines, The Hennessey Venom F5 hypercar will deliver more than 1460bhp and has a very specific design from front to rear using patented engineering technologies internal and externally integrated in every respect for speed potential they have warned “unlike anything ever” on wheels. Dubbed “F5″—and fittingly so, we are told—the car will also be more of a force majeure (read: megapower) in its own right. Hennessey Special Vehicles, the company behind the decision to build it above, recently released this clip of its take on what a road-legal vehicle is capable of doing. Where The Legend Of Speed Originated Formerly, the Hennessey Venom F5 just aimed to be referred as simply one thing: the fastest production car in history. Even for John Hennessey’s company, which is used to turning out super-fast cars like the Venom F5-that leaves unchartered territory of a sort that J.H. and crew have been accustomed up until this point…if not Legally Blonde Scalpel Wielding Land Pirates! The Venom F5 was first shown in November 2017 and represents a completely new design that will line up against some of the biggest names in performance, like Bugatti’s Chiron and Koenigsegg’s Jesko. ### **Engineering Marvel** Powering the Venom F5 is an all-American 6.6-liter twin-turbo V8 called “Fury.” That’s good for an amazing 1,817 horsepower and 1,193 lb-ft of torque. The end result is a curb weight of just 2,998 lbs (1,360 kg), helped along by an equally light carbon fiber luggage compartment lid that the engine comes in. All the more important, too, when you consider that performance of truly absurd figures on tap from the Venom F5. To its credit, BMW put the 8 through extensive development and software simulations to ensure that aero was tight without hobbling it with too much drag while still maintaining high-speed stability. It’s not all for show, as the design has been developed using wind tunnel testing and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations. As you can see in the video above, not a single line is wasted on providing revolutionary aerodynamics that keep this car pinned to terra firma at warp speed even when going through turns. ### **Record-Breaking Speed** That would make Venom F5 the fastest car in America by a mile (though that isn’t hard with an abundance of American cars capable to go as fast, but few do) and on top of it all — globally. Having stated that, the-mph barrier has not been validated individually yet ( by a third celebration existing top speed record owner) however anticipated. It is at this point that the Venom F5 would rise to become king of its class, topping new records ahead all other hypercars. Of course, the same is true for the Venom F5. The automaker predicts that it will enable 0-60 mph times of under 2.6 seconds with a top speed expected to exceed the electronically limited maximum velocity figure on your favorite scale, which is less than ten ticks of your chosen stopwatch past Mr(or Ms) (186+mph at least nearly(somewhat)tardy-as-you-blink-and-miss-it) in this case… Indeed more still are simultaneously not merely academic those figures also provide yet another frontier for what even becomes physically possible now regarding automotive performance innovation! Same Thing: Rare & Exclusive Just 24 examples of the ultra-exclusive hypercar will be made. Priced from approx $2.1 million each car is built-to-order for every customer with so much scope that no two examples of the venom F5 will be alike in fact they aim to deliver a bespoke individual master piece on all builds. Innovation <> Skill Think of the Hennessey Venom F5 as yet another place where that refinement and quality have been systematically engineered. The cabin offers a mix of high-end and contemporary features that are aimed at ensuring an immersive drive for the driver, based around. The Toyota gets a telemetry system and digital-dashboard so drivers can see live how their car is performing. In that spirit of uncompromising excellence paired with design elegance, absolutely every detail on Venom F5 embodies Hennessey’s straightforward philosophy for making the best and fastest vehicles possible while also exhibiting true creativity in terms of craftsmanship — from beautifully hand-crafted leather seats to engineered components designed purposefully throughout the vehicle. ### **Conclusion** For the F5 is not only one of streamlining what the business does, it’s as much a channel for ambition and innovation to engineer hegemony. Expect to see the Venom F5 fly later this year or early next as it embarks upon an attempt to rewrite our Aerolatino history books with a speed north of 300 mph. At the end of it, that powertrain will be encased in one of the most limited-production hypercars any mainstream brand has built (short of Bugatti hitting up Lamborghini to build its latest car). The COTA (Circuit Of The Americas) vantage point is the latest nod of affirmation, and if it could possibly be any greater than that its place in motorsport history books worldwide would only continue to resonate.
