Hennessey Venom F5 Revolution Roadster Debuts With 1,817 HP, $3M Price

Hennessey is set to unveil the Venom F5 Revolution Roadster on August 18, but we already have all the details about it. The new open-roof hypercar features the same track-focused aero upgrades as the F5 Revolution hardtop that was introduced earlier this year. The car was teased in May when a photo of John Hennessey, the CEO of Hennessey, standing next to NBA legend Michael Jordan next to a black Venom F5 was shared on Facebook. Now, we can see that the car in the photo is the F5 Revolution Roadster, with its black finish and yellow trim.

The F5 Revolution Roadster shares its visual upgrades with its hardtop counterpart, including larger splitters and diffusers, a rear wing, and dive planes on the front clip. It also features a roof scoop for the engine, even though the roof is removable. The roof is made of rigid carbon fiber composite and is lined with Alcantara on the inside. It weighs only 18 pounds and can be easily removed thanks to high-strength latches. According to Hennessey, the Roadster has been comprehensively re-engineered from the coupe version, although specific details about the changes have not been provided.
