Hennessey makes the Dodge SRT Demon 680 more powerful

Billionaires these days are no longer satisfied with just a big car. Things should be as small as possible to attract. Hennessey’s tune projects are many, but not limited. Or they really were, because Hennessey now also tune cars to a lesser extent. John Hennessey establishes HSO (Hennessey Special Operations) for that purpose. First project: Dodge Demon 1700.

As a base, Hennessey uses the last and most powerful gasoline Dodge Challenger, the SRT Demon 170. 3,300 of these are made. Twelve of these can be operated by Hennessey. John himself will be the first customer, so he leaves eleven ads. Finder to change the position of the complete previous training.

HSO sings a few cars a year
