2014 Hennessey VelociRaptor SUV
Available for June delivery
The Hennessey VelociRaptor 600 SUV is the vehicle that Ford should have built but never did, an SUV with seating for up to eight people yet possessing the sort of performance, off-road capability and hulking presence that only a VelociRaptor can deliver. Starting with the F-150 SVT Raptor SuperCrew pickup, Hennessey’s fabricators expertly craft on sheet metal and side glass from Ford’s Excursion, along with its three-way tailgate with flip-up glass hatch, to create an exclusive, one-of-a-kind SUV. Though it’s not intended to conquer the Rubicon Trail or pre-run the Baja 1000, the VelociRaptor SUV is as much at home storming along a gravel-strewn fire road as it is shuttling the team to Little League practice.
Hennessey’s proven 2.9 liter supercharger system will spoil you with wheel-churning brute force. With 623 horsepower at the crank (a 47-percent increase over the stock 6.2-liter V-8’s output), the VelociRaptor 600 SUV storms to 60 mph in 5.9 seconds—a respectable number even by sports-car standards, but hugely quick when you consider that 6,600 lb is being accelerated. And the supercharger’s special brand of war whoop both adds to the soundtrack and the sensation of speed under heavy throttle.
The seating configuration can be whatever you desire. Leave the factory seats in place, and the VelociRaptor SUV offers a yawning chasm of load space behind the second row. Or, for extra flexibility, you can add a third row bunch, or captain’s chairs at every station. In base form, VelociRaptor SUVs have modest, tasteful changes to Ford’s excellent interior: “Hennessey” cursive embroidered in the seats’ head restraints, and stamped on an aluminum dash plaque with the chassis build number. But the sky’s the limit as far as personalization goes.

Hennessy builds more than just raptors... A thread with no conclusion shows me nothing. My neighbor with 6 cars from Hennessy has had no problems
True, I forget he ripped off corvette and viper guys just the same...if it worked out for your neighbor, good on him. A quick search and there's more bad to read than good about the guy. That's the last thing I want to hear or read about a performance shop I'm courting. To each their own though. My point of the threads was to show that 2003 was far from the last time this guy had issues... Here are multiple threads...I'm sure you'll say "all a bunch of bitter guys." Oh well...yes older threads but your track record says a lot about your work...http://www.forzacentral.com/forum/th...ormance.17015/

I'm not going to hate on Hennessey for past problems but that's not what a Raptor was intended for. People can do whatever they want with their vehicles but they were meant to perform off-road not be an SUV. It just seems like a waste of money. Just my opinion.

Agreed, but I won't lie, the thought of SVCs tuned whipple has crossed my mind...

I Just ordered the Whipple setup for my 2013. Can't wait for it to come. It was just too much of a difference going from the SC truck to the other one.lol. Plus I'm contemplating going to 37's and with the extra weight it's going to need it.
