Hennessey Venom F5 I gallery (2020–present)

The first generation Hennessey Venom F5, introduced in production guise in 2020, featuring a bespoke carbon chassis and up to 2,031 hp.

The first generation of the Hennessey Venom F5 debuted in production form in late 2020 as a clean-sheet hypercar developed entirely in-house. Replacing the Lotus-derived architecture of the earlier Venom GT, the F5 is built around a custom carbon-fiber tub engineered for extreme torsional rigidity and minimal weight. Offered in both fixed-head coupe and open-top roadster body styles, the vehicle features full carbon exterior skin, active and passive aero packages, and a dry curb weight of just around 1,360 to 1,385 kg.

Power comes from the custom 6.6-liter twin-turbocharged pushrod V8 'Fury' engine, which generates 1,817 hp in initial specification and up to 2,031 hp in upgraded trims like the manual F5-M. Shifting is handled by either a paddle-actuated 7-speed automated manual transmission or an open-gate 6-speed manual, powering the rear axle. The suspension consists of double wishbones at all four corners with adjustable Penske coilovers, accompanied by massive carbon-ceramic Brembo disc brakes.
