The 1,000-hp Hennessey Cadillac Escalade: faster than a Lamborghini Huracan Evo

The American tuning company Hennessey Performance has unveiled an incredibly powerful version of the legendary Cadillac Escalade—the Hennessey H1000 Escalade-V, which now boasts over 1,000 horsepower. This luxurious SUV, weighing 2.8 metric tons, can accelerate to 100 km/h in an impressive 3.6 seconds, allowing it to outpace the Lamborghini Huracan Evo in a quarter-mile race.
Technical Specifications of the Hennessey H1000 Escalade-V
The tuned version is based on the 2024 Cadillac Escalade-V, which already comes equipped with a powerful 6.2-liter supercharged V8. However, Hennessey engineers significantly upgraded the engine: they replaced the supercharger, installed new valves, a catalytic converter, and a camshaft, and also improved the intake and exhaust systems. As a result, power increased to 1,005 l.s., and torque to 1,195 N·m.

Despite these significant modifications, the 10-speed automatic transmission, all-wheel-drive system, and air suspension remain unchanged. Brembo brakes are used to effectively slow down this massive SUV.
Design and Features of the Hennessey H1000
Externally, the Hennessey H1000 differs from the standard Cadillac Escalade with subtle aerodynamic body kit, stylish 22-inch wheels, and black trim accents. The interior features exclusive details, including limited-edition serial number plaques and seats upholstered in high-quality leather.

Limited Edition and Price
Production of the Hennessey H1000 Escalade-V will be limited to just 100 units, with each vehicle priced at approximately $200,000. An even more upgraded version based on the updated 2025 Cadillac Escalade is planned for release in the near future.
Why Choose the Hennessey H1000 Escalade?
For those seeking the perfect combination of luxury, incredible power, and uniqueness, the Hennessey H1000 Escalade-V is the ideal choice. This SUV exceeds expectations in terms of both speed and comfort, making it one of the most impressive vehicles on the road.
