The 2015 Hennessey VelociRaptor SUV is the Thug of SUVs

2016_Hennessey_VRSUV-2
The 2015 Hennessey VelociRaptor SUV appears to be the meanest, most intimidating SUV out there. Hennessey has a reputation for building ferocious trucks, but the 2015 Hennessey VelociRaptor SUV is something different. All of that potential and seating for up to eight? Give me more of that!

Considering how beefy the 2015 Hennessey VelociRaptor SUV is, the makeup of this truck looks simple (on paper). Start with a Ford F-250 and add a body-shell that looks a lot like a modern Ford Excursion. Infuse with a supercharged 6.2-liter engine that can belt out (up to) 650 horsepower. OR, add a 6.7-liter Powerstroke diesel that puts out up to 880 lb-feet of torque. Upgrade everything from the tires to the brakes and suspension… there’s your dream SUV – TOUCHDOWN!

Oh, you’ll need about $160,000, too.
