The 1,000-Horsepower Halo Warthog is Real and It’s Amazing

The Master Chief would be proud.

Halo fans have longed to drive a Warthog for decades. Hoonigan has made it possible to live your dream of being Master Chief’s assault vehicle in battle. The UNSC’s fight with alien enemies was not without its support. The Warthog was there for all of it and was part some of the most memorable moments in the Halo series. We now have a chance to see it in action. It has 1,000 horsepower.

Halo, a game series, was launched with Halo Combat Evolved’s release on the original Xbox in November 2001. The game franchise has been a major part of Microsoft’s game offering and a cultural landmark for generations of gamers. The Warthog is a constant feature in all Halo games.

There are many configurations for this assault vehicle, but the most common features include a Gatling gun rear-turret and enough room for both driver and passenger. The Warthog’s unique mechanical sound makes it difficult to shift gears or consume fuel. It has four-wheel steering and a unique suspension system. The original Halo Combat Evolved Halo Combat Evolved game showed that the Warthog was indestructible, despite Covenant’s best efforts.

The Warthog is a symbol and easily recognized by anyone who has played videogames in the 20 years since its release. It is a goal of many to create an example that we all can enjoy in person. This is why the Hoonigans’ creation received much attention.
