Bring the Power and the Kids with the Hennessey VelociRaptor SUV

Hennessey Performance VelociRaptor SUV

More doors and more fun.

Usually, making a vehicle heavier and adding more doors means that it’s going to be less fun. That’s one reason why minivans are oftentimes looked at as driving hell by automotive enthusiasts. The new Hennessey Performance 2015-2016 VelociRaptor SUV goes against the grain.

While it may have more doors and more weight, the SUV conversion by the American tuner has all the right stuff from capability to sheer power. The conversion starts out as a base Ford F-250 Lariat pick-up with 4×4 powered by either the 6.2-liter V-8 or 6.7-liter PowerStroke diesel.

The Hennessey VelociRaptor SUV conversion sees new rear cargo doors, a middle row of captain’s chairs, folding third-row bench, VelociRaptor front bumper, exterior badges, and dashboard and engine serial numbered plaques added to create a full seven-passenger SUV. As an option, a middle 60/40-split middle row with folding center console that allows for room up to eight can also be installed.

Customers with the 6.2-liter V-8 engine have the choice between two potent powerhouses. Hennessey Performance can install the VelociRaptor 600 supercharged engine upgrade with 600 bhp at 5,700 RPM or the VelociRaptor 650 supercharged upgrade with 650 bhp at 5,700 RPM. Customers with the 6.7-liter PowerStroke diesel have a beastly 440 horsepower and 880 lb-ft. of torque on tap.
