HENNESSEY’S 700HP VELOCIRAPTOR 6X6 THUNDERS INTO PRODUCTION

HENNESSEY Performance has announced full production for its Velociraptor 6x6 super-truck, a Ford F-150 Raptor R that is transformed into a nearly unstoppable 6x6. The Velociraptor 6x6 boasts an extended boxed frame and a second, fully functional, locking rear axle— improving tractive grip by more than 50%. The suspension features Live Valve Fox dampers, the most advanced off-road suspension available on a production vehicle. A 3-inch lift raises the body in preparation for Hennessey’s custom 20-inch alloy wheels wrapped in 37-inch off-road tires. Lastly, an expansive 8-foot-long load bed replaces the stock 5.5-foot bed; cargo capacity is improved by more than 45%.

Complementing the mechanical upgrades are new front and rear bumpers, LED off-road lights, and Hennessey Velociraptor badging. The resulting Velociraptor 6x6 is a beastly machine nearly 27 feet long, roughly 7 feet tall, and 7 feet wide—with a curb weight of approximately 6,500 pounds.

The burly Ford Raptor R engine, a supercharged 5.2-liter V-8, is untouched. It boasts a formidable

700 bhp at 6,650 rpm and 640 lb-ft torque at 4,250 rpm. That’s enough power to ensure that the commanding Velociraptor 6x6 dominates both on- and off-road.

Hennessey has made a range of exclusive and competent 6x6 trucks, including the Ram-based MAMMOTH 6x6 TRX and Chevroletbased GOLIATH 6x6 Silverado. For customers seeking a more practical truck, Hennessey also offers a suite of performance and off-road-oriented upgrades for the regular Ford Raptor 4x4. Hennessey has been the leader and industry benchmark for Ford Raptor upgrades since the truck was first introduced back in 2009.

Customers can opt to source a new Ford Raptor R to send to Hennessey for conversion, or they can purchase a turn-key vehicle from Hennessey directly. Hennessey prides itself on the quality of its vehicles and workmanship; as such, the Velociraptor 6x6 benefits from a comprehensive threeyear/36,000-mile warranty.
