No Ordinary Raptor R – Meet the Hennessey VelociraptoR 1000

Overview of the 2025 Henessey Performance VelociRaptoR1000

The VelociRaptoR 1000 is far from your average pickup truck. Built on the powerful Ford F-150 Raptor R platform, this upgraded “super truck” comes from Hennessey®, the Texas-based team known for building hyper-cars and engineering high-performance vehicle upgrades. The result is a truck that pushes performance to an entirely new level with 40+ percent more horsepower and an upgraded supercharger that blows the regular F-150 out of the park.

The Base: Ford F-150 Raptor R

Before the Hennessey® Performance upgrades begin, the VelociRaptoR 1000 starts with the Ford-F-150 Raptor R. Designed as Ford’s legendary off-road truck, the Raptor R is built for drivers who want strong performance both on and off the pavement. With a 720 horsepower 5.2 Supercharged v8 engine and massive 35 inch all-terrain tires, this vehicle comes already equipped for all the off-roading adventures you can imagine (or for everyday driving for extreme confidence boost on the road).

It’s already one of the most powerful and capable pickup trucks available – making it the perfect foundation for Hennessey’s extreme performance package.

What the Hennessey VelociRaptoR 1000 Upgrades Include

Of course, the real excitement comes from the Hennessey® enhancements. Here are some of the highlights included in the RaptoR to elevate the truck far beyond factory specs:

• 1043 bhp output
• Upgraded 3.8 liter High-Performance Supercharger
• High-Flow Air Induction System
