Hennessey Venom GT (2011 to 2017)

The Hennessey Venom GT became the companys first bespoke model when it was introduced for the 2011 model year. The Venom GT was built using a Lotus Elise platform, with the notable addition of an incredibly powerful V8 engine that was built using a Chevrolet LS7 as a base. This engine was equipped with twin turbos that helped generate a massive output of 1,244hp that was sent to the rear wheels through a 6 speed manual transmission. Both coupe and targa (Spyder) versions were built, with 6 Spyders and 7 coupes created respectively. At the end of production, just a total of 13 examples were built including the prototype.
