The Hennessey Venom F5 is a hypercar engineered for extreme performance and named after the highest rating on the Fujita tornado scale. Powered by Hennessey’s proprietary 6.6-liter twin-turbocharged V8, nicknamed “Fury,” the engine is an upgraded version of the Corvette Z06’s LS platform, producing a staggering 1,817 horsepower and 1,617 Nm of torque.
This particular example, offered for sale on SBX Cars, is a one-owner vehicle with only 1,790 miles (2,881 km) on the odometer. Finished in Uranus Blue Metallic with factory-applied full body PPF, this example is chassis number 23 of only 24 coupes built and the first to feature factory-upgraded Comfort seats. A lightweight titanium quad-exit exhaust system distinguishes the exterior, along with matte bronze forged wheels, dihedral doors, and gloss-finished exposed carbon fiber throughout, including the splitter, hood ducts, roof, and diffuser.
Inside, the cabin features black leather with teal accents, an Alcantara headliner, and exposed carbon fiber detailing. The multifunction yoke-style steering wheel features integrated shift paddles and an ignition button. At the same time, the center console features a touchscreen infotainment system that includes Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and climate control functions.
Mechanically, the F5 employs aluminum cylinder heads with titanium intake and Inconel exhaust valves, forged steel connecting rods, and a dry sump lubrication system. Power is sent through a 7-speed single-clutch automated gearbox to a limited-slip differential. Adjustable Penske coilovers handle the suspension, while massive carbon-ceramic brakes with bespoke Hennessey calipers ensure stopping power. Advanced driver aids include launch control, ABS, traction control, and a front and rear lift system.
