10th Hennessey Venom F5 delivered!

KUALA LUMPUR: Hennessey aims to manufacture 24 units of the Venom F5 hypercar and the company has now reached the milestone figure of ten.

During the holiday season, the automaker delivered the 10th Venom F5 coupe, sprayed in a buyer-specific metallic blue tone with striking white stripes. This unit is manufactured by a specialized team in a dedicated facility and was handed over to the owner at the Hennessey Special Vehicles in Sealy, Texas.

The said specialized team was signed off for the full production of the car in March 2022 by the company’s founder and CEO John Hennessey and John Heinricy, Chief engineer. Since then the team has assembled over a dozen F5 Coupes and Roadsters.

In 2023, Hennessey plans to increase its manufacturing rate compared to 2022. The automaker now has more than 90 employees building the car and projects to deliver more than 20 Venom F5s this year.

While all 24 units of the coupe are reserved, a few roadsters are still up for grabs.
