Summary
Hennessey unveiled the production Venom F5-M at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, raising output to 2,031 hp and sending it solely to the rear wheels through a gated six-speed manual.
The roadster uses a twin-turbo 6.6-liter V8, a carbon-fiber monocoque and revised aero — including a 55-inch dorsal fin — while adding adaptive suspension to the Venom lineup for the first time.
Just 12 examples are planned at $2.65 million each, with the first car commissioned by a UK customer through Hennessey’s bespoke Maverick division.
At Goodwood, the F5-M is set to run the hill climb twice daily over the four-day event with Alex Brundle driving, underscoring Hennessey’s push to showcase one of the world’s most powerful production cars.
