At times all you need is somewhat more, and Hennessey — the auto tuner and maker — is here to give it to you. The H1000, which Hennessey claims produces 1005 horsepower, is the most recent offering from the company’s headquarters in Sealy, Texas. Compared to the massive luxury SUV’s already high stock output, that four-digit figure is significantly higher.
A Considerably More stunning Escalade
The standard Cadillac Escalade-V is a monster from the get-go. Its supercharged 6.2-liter V-8 typically packs 682 ponies, and it’s firmly connected with the 668-hp supercharged V-8 found in the Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing. We were able to propel a 6290-pound Escalade-V to 60 mph in 4.3 seconds during our testing. With the Hennessey variant’s fundamentally expanded power and 882 pound-feet of force, the H1000 will probably be even speedier.
To essentially add a Supra 3.0 of strength, Hennessey changes the V’s motor by trading in a custom camshaft, ported chamber heads and redesigns everything from valve springs and retainers to lifters and push poles. In addition, the V-8 receives new intake and fuel systems, as well as catalytic converters that enable increased air flow rates. At the point when we tried the production line constructed Escalade-V, we estimated an inside clamor level of 85 decibels with the gas pedal stuck. We anticipate that the monster Hennessey will roar even louder.
Big Power, Big Cost If you’re worried that Hennessey’s team has ruined the new Caddy’s reliability, we can’t say how we feel about it, but you might not need to be concerned. This is because the tuner offers a limited warranty that covers 36,000 miles or three years. The H1000 certainly costs significantly more than a brand-new Cadillac Escalade-V, which starts at $154,290, so getting one is probably the harder pill to swallow.
