Hennessey, the Texas-based hypercar manufacturer and high-performance vehicle creator, is announcing full production for its ‘VelociRaptoR 6X6’ supertruck, a Ford F-150 Raptor R that is transformed into a nearly unstoppable 6X6.

The 'VelociRaptoR 6X6,’ which utilizes a third-generation Ford F-150 Raptor R as its foundation, boasts an extended boxed frame and a second, fully functional, locking rear axle – tractive grip is improved by more than 50 percent. The suspension features Live Valve Fox dampers, the most advanced off-road suspension available on a production vehicle. A three-inch lift raises the body in preparation for Hennessey's custom 20-inch alloy wheels wrapped in 37-inch off-road tires. Lastly, an expansive 8-foot (2.4 meter) long load bed replaces the stock 5.5-foot (1.67-meter) bed – cargo capacity is improved by more than 45 percent.

 
 

Complementing the mechanical upgrades are new front and rear bumpers, LED off-road lights, and Hennessey VelociRaptoR badging. The resulting ‘VelociRaptoR 6X6’ is a beastly machine nearly 27’ long, roughly 7’ tall, and 7’ wide – with a curb weight of approximately 6,500 pounds.

The burly Ford Raptor R engine, a supercharged 5.2-liter V8, is untouched. It boasts a formidable 700 hp @ 6,650 rpm and 870 lb-ft torque @ 4,250 rpm. That's enough power to ensure that the commanding ‘VelociRaptoR 6X6’ dominates both on- and off-road.

Taking these power-packed trucks to the extreme '6X6' stage is second nature to Hennessey's engineers. The company is the world's largest producer of modified Ford F-150 Raptors. It has built thousands of high-performance VelociRaptor trucks for customers around the globe, and its colossal 6X6 remains one of its most astounding builds.
