Hennessey is not messing around. Not like they ever do, but this time they have gone the extra mile. Taking the Cadillac CTS-V Coupe as a basis for their madness, the tuner then went off to extract more power than is necessary. Necessary and desirable are two different things of course, and we like the latter. How does a 7-litre twin turbo V8 grab you?
Those twin turbos churn out a sizable chunk of grunt, actually 746kW at 6400rpm and maximum torque of 1286Nm from 4000rpm. Hennessey says it will take off from 0 – 100km/h in just 3.6 seconds, hit the quarter mile in 10.9 seconds and achieve a top whack of 370km/h. Lots of work was done to make it happen, including dual wastegates, forged steel connecting rods, and upgraded fuel injectors among others.
Wheels are 20-inch special Hennessey Monoblock types with 275/30YR-20 front tyres and 345/30YR-20 rubber at the back. Both front and rear suspension was lowered by 2.54cm and body kit includes a carbon fibre front splitter, front fenders, rear diffuser and a carbon fibre extractor hood.
Only 12 lucky US customers will be able to experience exactly what this laser gun can do.
