The Hennessy Venom GT is the next challenger for the world’s fastest
car spot, this car is futuristic and looks as if it comes from a super hero
movie. It looks so cool it could have been used as the Bat-mobile.
The Hennessy Venom GT has a top speed of 260mph just 7mph
short of the tested speed of the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport which is 267mph set
in Germany in 2010. The Hennessy Venom Gt is faster than the two previous
fastest cars in the world which are the SSC Ultimate Aero which became the world’s
fastest car in 2007 with a tested top speed of 257mph and the Bugatti Veyron
before that which had a top speed of 253mph.

The Hennessy Venom is currently tied at 2nd place
as the world second fastest car with the Koenigsegg Agera R which also has a
tested top speed of 260mph. The competition has never been so close there are
so many cars gunning for that top spot now and all of them within reach. With
proper tuning and modification and an excellent driver, speed records are going
to be shattered in the next few years.
The Hennessy is powered by a 6.2l turbocharged V8 twin-turbo
engine, which produces 1200hp. It goes from 0-6omph in 2.5 seconds. It costs $950 000
so it is definitely not cheap, no super car comes cheap especially one vying
for the world fastest car title. Some people believe that the Hennessy actually
can go faster than the Bugatti Veyron Super sport, but before we can say that
we are going to wait for the proof.
The Venom Gt is based on a modified Lotus Exige Chassis and
the engine used in the Venom Gt is the same one used in the Chevrolet Corvette
C6 ZR1. It is manufactured by Hennessy Performance Engineering. And its design
was first revealed in March of 2010.
