Hennessey Cadillac Escalade V H1000
6.2-liter V8 supercharger with unique tuning
In addition to its own super sports cars, Hennessey also develops tuning cars for Chevrolet and Cadillac, and has completed the “Hennessey Escalade V H1000,” which is based on the Escalade V and produces over 1,000 PS.
Hennessey Performance Engineering, a Texas-based company that develops hypercars and tuning cars, has completed the Escalade V H1000, a car based on the Cadillac Escalade V performance SUV that delivers a maximum output of 1,018 PS.
Based on the 6.2-liter V8 supercharged engine, Hennessey’s engineering team implemented numerous upgrades, including replacing the engine with a larger-capacity supercharger, adding a specially developed Hennessey camshaft, ported cylinder heads, and a high-performance throttle body, resulting in a maximum output of 1018 PS, an increase of approximately 50% over the base model, and a 35% increase in maximum torque of 1195 Nm.
These updates enable the luxury SUV to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 3.6 seconds, despite being equipped with three rows of seating and ample luggage space. In Hennessey’s own acceleration tests, the car demonstrated sharp acceleration, beating the Lamborghini Huracán EVO immediately after the start.
All production slots for 2024 are sold out
The interior of the Hennessey Escalade V H1000. The Escalade V H1000 is limited to 100 units per year, and the 2024 production slots were sold out at the time of announcement. Orders are currently being accepted for the 2025 production slots.
Hennessey’s Sealy, Texas, plant is currently producing the Escalade V H1000, with 100 units already sold out for the 2024 model year. Hennessey is now accepting orders for the 2025 model year, with each of the 100 units being individually numbered.
“Every vehicle undergoes extensive road and track testing before delivery to customers and is backed by a three-year/36,000-mile warranty. John Hennessey, founder and CEO of Hennessey Performance, had this to say about the Escalade V H1000’s explosive performance:
“No one thinks a full-size luxury SUV can compete with a super sports car. But now the Hennessey Escalade V H1000 is able to match the legendary performance car that is the Huracán EVO. Honestly, it’s insane. If there’s a way to transport seven passengers faster and more enjoyably while still maintaining this level of comfort, let me know.”
