Overview
The Hennessey Venom GT is a limited-production supercar made by Hennessey Performance and built on a heavily-modified Lotus Exige chassis. The higher performance version of the Venom GT is the Hennessey Venom F5. The purpose of the Venom GT is to break the world record for the highest speed in any regular production land vehicle (270.49 mph / 435.49 km/h). Unfortunately, it did not make the record in 2013 as the run was done in a single direction and only 29 Venom GTs were produced in the world.
Asphalt 8: Airborne
The Hennessey Venom GT first appeared in the June 2014 update of the game. Prior to the Hennessey Venom GT Cup, the Venom GT first appeared as an AI racer in the Independence Day Cup (set in Nevada) and Class S Cup (set in The London Eye). Since the completion of the first Hennessey Venom GT Cup, it is currently available in the garage.
The Hennessey Venom GT is the fourth most powerful car in the game, placed at the highest end of Class S. It has a starting rank of 1555 (third highest of any car in the game, behind the SSC Tuatara's 1561 and the Koenigsegg One:1's 1562), a maximum rank of 1674 (shared with the SSC Ultimate Aero XT), and a final rank of 1751 (also shared with the SSC Ultimate Aero XT). The Venom GT has the highest top speed of any vehicle in the game. Handling is also very decent. However, it accelerates a little slower than the Ultimate Aero XT due to a weaker nitro boost. It still has a decent nitro efficiency, though, but not the best. As a result of having a slightly higher starting rank than the SSC Ultimate Aero XT, the Hennessey Venom GT gains 27 bonus rank points with a Tuning Kit as opposed to the Ultimate Aero XT's 29.
The Hennessey Venom GT is the fourth most expensive vehicle available for purchase by credits, costing 2,250,000, only three-fourths of the Koenigsegg One:1's 3,000,000. Prior to the Winter update, the Venom GT was priced the same as the Koenigsegg One:1. It costs 2,474,350 to max out, as expected for a car of an extreme purchase price.
As of the San Diego Harbor update, the Hennessey Venom GT has its own event in Season 6. This event is the singular most expensive event ouside of Season 9 (not counting the events that require Premium cars), requiring 2,250,000 Credits to participate for the first time (if the player doesn't have the car already).
The Hennessey Venom GT's competitors are the Koenigsegg One:1, SSC Tuatara, W Motors Lykan HyperSport and the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport. Therefore, the Hennessey Venom GT is the only hyper car that uses a Chevrolet LS7 engine in the competition.
