😊 Hennessey Blackbird: $2.5M Hypercar Without Screens

Hennessey revealed the Blackbird, a $2.5 million hypercar with no hybrid system, no touchscreen, and a manual gearbox with three pedals and a key ignition. It uses a 6.2-liter V8 producing 850 hp, developed with Ilmor Engineering, and revs up to 9000 rpm, the highest for a production naturally aspirated V8.

The car accelerates from 0 to 96 km/h in 2.5 seconds and tops out at 354 km/h. It has rear-wheel drive, a six-speed manual, no launch control, but includes adaptive suspension and ABS. Inside, there’s no digital display or steering wheel buttons, only an analog tachometer, toggles, and a camera replacing the rearview mirror as legally required.
