Hennessey Performance has dropped a teaser image of the production-spec Venom F5 and confirmed that it will be unveiled in November.
The photo provides us with a look at roughly a quarter of the hypercar’s rear fascia. It shows part of the diffuser and some rather intricate bodywork. Pretty much everything in sight is also made from lightweight carbon fiber although no apparent design changes are visible from the bright yellow show car of a few years ago.
The world has been waiting for the Venom F5 for a very long time. Hennessey first unveiled a concept at the SEMA Show in 2017 but even that came over three years after the tuner dropped the first official information regarding the car in 2014.

At the start of this year, Hennessey revealed the Venom F5 will use an all-carbon fiber chassis that weighs just 190 lbs (86 kg) and has a torsional rigidity of 52,000 newton meters per degree (38,353 lb-ft torque per degree), surpassing that of the Bugatti Chiron’s chassis.
Powering the Venom F5 will be a 6.6-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine that includes high-flow waste gates, blow-off valves, huge fuel injectors, stainless steel turbo headers and downpipes, and a titanium exhaust system. All up, this engine will deliver 1,817 hp at 8,000 rpm and 1,193 lb-ft (1,617 Nm) of torque at 5,500 rpm.
Hennessey wants to set a new production car top speed record with the Venom F5 and is looking to exceed 311 mph (500 km/h). That would be enough to snatch the crown from the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 300+ that hit 304.773 mph (490.484 km/h) last year.
