FORD F-150 ''HENNESSEY'' VENOM 775

After the arrival of the RAM 1500 TRX, the Stellantis brand took over the throne of the most powerful and sporty pick-ups that for years had been in the hands of the Ford F-150 Raptor. The new generation of the Ford F150 has allowed the foundations to be laid for an official response in the form of a Raptor R that is already on its way, certainly for next year. However, Hennessey has demonstrated on more than one occasion that you don't need a Raptor to create a monster, and so didn't want to wait and ended up introducing your new Hennessey Venom.

A model that now materializes in the form of a Venom 775, an F-150 2021 that presents itself with a power superior even to that of the RAM TRX, in addition to a more imposing appearance that was finally put to the de facto test with its great rival .

To make this challenge possible, Hennessey Performance took as its starting point a standard F-150 Crew Cab with a 5.0 liter V8 engine that is accompanied, of course, by a large supercharger, but which also received others. types of improvements in the fuel, air and exhaust systems, to give as a result 785 hp of power and 929 Nm of torque with which it generously surpasses the RAM 1500 TRX.

Of course, it's not the same saying and doing, and that's why Hennessey released a video where you face a RAM TRX in a drag race. And as expected, the 785 hp of the Venom 775 surpasses the 712 hp of the TRX, although the RAM continues to defend itself with dignity.

However, this Venom doesn't only stand out for its performance. As is customary in this series, including the previous F-150 generation, we are faced with a body that is higher off the ground, around 15 cm extra, and which above all is much more imposing thanks to its new authentic off-vehicle bumpers. -road that owes nothing to Raptor, and its 35-inch all-terrain tires with custom 20-inch black wheels. All of this is completed, as usual, with the usual Hennessey stickers under the name Venom 775 Supercharged.

All of these improvements will be priced in line with the category of Hennessey creations, with a value that will be around 90,000 - 110,000 dollars depending on the options chosen and which already include the original Ford F-150, which makes it a relatively affordable proposition for your company. potency and appearance. But those interested will have to be quick, because Hennessey's intention is to produce only 100 units of this Venom 775, which will make it a very exclusive model.
