From the tuner Hennessey Performance from Texas comes the most extreme version of the Ford F-150 Raptor. He calls himself VelociRaptor 6 × 6 and is a significantly bigger and a lot meaner version of the Ford pickup. Of course, as the name suggests, it's a three-axis version that seems ready to take on whatever Mother Nature throws at it. The Hennessey VelociRaptor 6×6 doesn't just have one fully fledged Six wheel drive, it also has new Fox suspension combined with a 76mmLift Kit installed. It also stands on 37-inch (0,94 m) off-road tires that have been pulled onto 20-inch off-road wheels, behind which live Brembo 6-piston brakes. A large LED light bar is integrated into the massive front apron with a bull bar, there was massive underbody protection and on the other side a huge loading area.
Hennessey VelociRaptor 6×6
With a length of 2,4 m, the loading area is a whopping 80 cm longer than that of the standard Ford F-150 Raptor and the capacity has increased by an impressive 45%. At least that's what Hennessey Performance claims. With no power upgrade, the twin-turbo 3,5-liter EcoBoost V6 engine produces 450 hp and 691 Nm of torque, but of course the VelociRaptor 6×6 has received an upgrade. Among other things, special chip tuning software was installed, there were new intercooler pipes, a high-flow air intake system (air intake), a larger intercooler and a sports exhaust system made of stainless steel is also installed. The result is 558 hp and a massive 911 Nm of torque. And there were a few details inside, too. Usually Hennessey installs new headrests with the tuner's logo and adds small details like new floor mats etc.
everything is extensively tested
There is also a numbered plaque in the engine compartment. Before the vehicle reaches the customer, there are approximately 500 miles of road tests that are part of the conversion process. Hennessey also tests every vehicle on the test bench to ensure that the promised values are met. And it always comes with a 3-year/36.000-mile warranty. A 2023 VelociRaptor 6×6 from Hennessey costs at least $399.950, which at least includes the donor vehicle. If we get more information, there is of course an update for this report.
