The crew over at Hennessey Performance has transformed the F-150 SVT Raptor super crew into an 8-passenger SUV. “Over the past three years we have built nearly 400 upgraded Raptor trucks for enthusiasts around the world”, said Don Goldman, CEO of Hennessey Performance. “We are now very excited to be able to offer the VelociRaptor SUV to those who like the Raptor but want more seats and space.”

The VelociRaptor SUV retains allo of the same truck components from the Raptor, but Hennessey suggests that buyers not try to tackle the same off-road trails as they would in the standard pickup. “Don’t plan on pre-running Baja or negotiating Rubicon with our SUV – that is not why we built it”, said company founder, John Hennessey. But, if you’re looking for the ultimate vehicle to drive from Aspen to Telluride in January, the VelociRaptor SUV would be perfect.”

The VelociRaptor SUV base price is $149,500 and production is going to be limited to just 30 units per year. The standard version is powered by the same 411 horsepower 6.2L V8 as the pickup, but Hennessey will also offer a 600 horsepower supercharged upgrade, which drops the 0-60 mph time to 5.9 seconds compared to 7.5 seconds for the standard SUV.
