The 2024 Hennessey Venom 775: A Ford F-150 on Steroids Hits 60 MPH in 3.6 Seconds
by AutoExpert | 25 October, 2023
Hennessey Performance is back with a bang, presenting the revamped 2024 Venom 775—a tricked-out Ford F-150 that doesn't just compete with the Ford F-150 Raptor R and Ram TRX; it leaves them in the dust.
Engine & Performance
Before diving into the juicy upgrades, let's talk power. Nestled under the hood is a 5.0-liter V8 engine, delivering a respectable 400 HP and 410 lb-ft of torque.
But Hennessey wasn't satisfied with "respectable." They equipped the Venom 775 with an air-to-water intercooler and a 3.0-liter supercharger, catapulting the power figures to an earth-shaking 775 HP and 727 lb-ft of torque. That's a whopping 94% boost in power and a 77% increase in torque.
Compared to the Competition
To put this into perspective, the Ram TRX boasts 702 HP, and the 2024 Raptor R comes in just north of 700 HP. But it's the Venom 775 that steals the show, accelerating from 0 to 60 mph in an eye-watering 3.6 seconds and conquering a quarter-mile in a blistering 11.9 seconds.
On the Road
On the road, the Venom 775 is no slouch. It even outperformed the new Dark Horse Mustang in a 30 mph race—a car that is 1000 kg lighter and more aerodynamic.
John Hennessey Weighs In
John Hennessey, the mastermind CEO behind the Venom 775, describes it as the ultimate sleeper truck—one that can make Raptor R and TRX owners turn green with envy. And these upgrades aren't just for show; they offer unparalleled performance both on asphalt and off-road trails, all while maintaining the F-150's legendary capabilities.
Not Just a Speed Demon
Speed is only part of the equation. A six-inch lift kit, multi-piston Brembo brakes, and upgraded suspension mean the Venom 775 is as stable and grounded as it is fast. It's ready to tackle any terrain, thanks to its 35-inch off-road tires mounted on 20-inch wheels.
Look & Feel
Aesthetically, this truck screams power. Its new “Hennessey Venom” front bumper, fender vents, illuminated badges, and power-operated running boards make a strong visual statement. Inside, the changes are minimal but meaningful—custom Venom 775 logos and embroidered 'Hennessey' badges grace the headrests.
Pricing and Warranty
Though the exact price is still under wraps, Hennessey offers a three-year, 36,000-mile warranty on the Venom 775, for that extra peace of mind.
Exclusivity
Only 250 units will roll out each year, making this not just a powerful truck but a rare one as well.
Alternatives
Not a Ford fan? Keep an eye out for the 800 HP Silverado from Specialty Vehicle Engineering, which might just tickle your fancy.
So there you have it—the 2024 Hennessey Venom 775. It's more than just a truck; it's a statement of power and innovation.
