It sounds amazing, too.
Hennessey got ahold the 2021 Ford F-150 Raptor. The company took it to the Dyno to test how much power the twin-turbo V6 could send to the rear wheels.
The graph shows that the pickup produces 361.02 horsepower (269.21 Kilowatts) at 4,990 RPM and 458.92 pounds-feet (622 Newton-meters), at 3,710 RPM. The factory rating for the pickup is 450 HP (336 kW) at 4,990 rpm and 510 Lb-ft (692Nm) at 3,710 rpm. This results in a loss of horsepower of 19.77 percent and a loss 10.02 percent in torque between the engine’s and the wheels.
The 2021 Raptor rides on a revised rear suspension layout in comparison to the previous truck. To improve wheel travel and articulation, the five-link design features coil springs, long trailing arms, and a Panhard rod. Each corner has Fox shocks.
Ford now offers 37-inch BFGoodrich AllTerrain KO2 tires for off-road driving with maximum grip.
The 2021 Raptor costs $64,145 plus a $1695 destination fee. The price of the 2021 Raptor can easily reach $80,000 with options.
Hennessey has just released its VelociRaptor 600 Upgrade Package for the 2021 Raptor. The engine output is increased to 600 horsepower (447 kW) with 622 lb-ft (843Nm) of torque. This package includes upgrades to the engine management, air intake, and intercooler. The goal is to accelerate the engine to 60 mph (96 km/h) in 4.2 seconds. This compares with 5.3 seconds at the factory.
Hennessey charges $85,950 to purchase a complete truck and this package. Customers can upgrade their Raptor for $19,950 after they take delivery.
Ford is also preparing the Raptor R, a more powerful version of the Raptor. It will arrive in 2022. The twin-turbo V6 is replaced by the supercharged, 5.2-liter V8 of the Mustang Shelby GT500. According to this application, the powerplant produces 725 horsepower (540 kW) or 750 horsepower.
