Hennessey Boosts Bronco Power Past 400 bhp

Hennessey Performance Engineering (HPE), the Texas-based hypercar manufacturer and highperformance vehicle creator, has turned up the power on the new Ford Bronco with its acclaimed VelociRaptor package. The all-new Hennessey VelociRaptor 400 Bronco boasts 405bhp at 5,700 rpm and 503 lb-ft torque at 3,900 rpm as a result of comprehensive reworking by the experts at Hennessey. The team’s engineers fit new intake and exhaust systems to the 2.7-litre twin-turbocharged V6 powerplant, in addition to recalibrating the engine to maximize power. The VelociRaptor package adds 75hp to the range-topping, Bronco Wildtrak, and adds 88 lb-ft to the stock torque figure enabling the 4x4 to sprint from 0-60 mph in just 4.9 seconds. With Hennessey’s Off-Road Package, owners can individualise their Bronco further with 35” offroad tires on 18” Hennessey wheels; front and rear VelociRaptor bumpers; retractable side steps; and VelociRaptor branding. Thanks to the extensive Hennessey R&D process, all of the Bronco’s engine modes and off-road systems are retained, plus Hennessey provides a 3-year / 36,000-mile warranty as part of the $80,000 price that the typical customer will pay (including the base Bronco Wildtrak).
