The exclusive pickup has welcomed some alterations and modernizations just in time for this season, but we ought to discuss what drives the potent Venom 775 initially. Residing behind the bonnet is the well-known 5.0-litre V8 that, when straight from the manufacturer, generates 400 horsepower and 410 lb-ft of torque.
Hennessey has really made things go out of control when it comes to this engine. They’ve added a 3.0-liter blower coupled with an air-to-water intercooler, which enhances the power production to an astonishing 775 horsepower and a whopping 727 lb-ft of torque. This is a tremendous 94% augmentation for power and 77% for torque. Extra refitting have been done to this engine such as improved fuel injectors, a sophisticated fuel delivery system, and also a superior air intake structure. Moreover, a pristine stainless steel exhaust has been implemented to lower back pressure – plus, it gives a fantastic V8 sound.
As a reminder, the Ram TRX flaunts 702hp while the 2024 Raptor R grants more than 700hp, upholding it as one of the mightiest combustion engine-powered trucks available. Even this is overshadowed by the Venom 775, which catapults itself to 60 mph in 3.6 seconds and traverses a quarter-mile in an extraordinary 11.9 seconds.
Figures and numbers aside, what is the driving experience like? The video shown here serves as proof that it’s amazingly high-speed. When it comes to a rolling 30mph race, the Venom 775 annihilates the considerably more aerodynamic – not to mention weighing one thousand pounds less – Mustang Dark Horse.
“At Hennessey Performance, we are proud to introduce the Venom 775, the ultimate ‘sleeper’ truck,” declared CEO John Hennessey. “This upgrade provides a level of power that can make TRX and Raptor R owners jealous. Not only does it deliver outstanding performance on and off the road, but it also preserves the classic capabilities of the Ford F-150. Plus, it is even compatible with higher trim levels, so you don’t have to sacrifice luxury for power!”
The Venom 775 is more than just a speedy car, it’s also about practicality. This ride has a 6-inch lift kit, providing great ground clearance, accompanied with an upgraded suspension that gives excellent stability and maneuverability over different surfaces. Its 20-inch wheels fit perfectly with its 35-inch off-road tires, this combined with the multi-piston Brembo brakes makes for much sharper stopping power.

It is also quite exclusive as only 250 units are intended to be produced each year.
