@evo Magazine –
In the latest issue of evo, we sample the mindblowing Hennessey F5 Evolution hypercar, test and compare a group of all-wheel-drive performance cars, from the Lamborghini Revuelto to the Range Rover Sport SV – plus a whole lot more.
We have an audience with Hennessey’s astonishing F5 Evolution, the latest variation of the tearaway Texan hypercar. Hennessey’s been in the fight for VMAX hypercar glory for over a decade now, since the Venom GT managed 270mph along the same stretch of runway where space shuttles once landed. Then Koenigsegg smashed the two-way average in Nevada in 2017 before Bugatti cracked 300mph at Ehra-Lessien in 2019.
Since then, the world has waited for one of these three to get a Guinness-verified 300mph+ top speed (averaged across two runs) squared away. Now the Chiron Super Sport and the Jesko Absolut have the F5 Evolution, with over 2000bhp, to contend with in that race, with the Texans seemingly poised for a first-mover advantage.
