Hennessey Exorcist 30th Anniversary Camaro: what is it?

The Hennessey Exorcist 30th Anniversary Camaro is marked out from the 'standard' Exorcist by bespoke commemorative badging and a unique red and black paint scheme. Each car will receive an individual build number, inscribed on the car’s chassis plate.

The special-edition model gains the same upgraded supercharger, high-flow air induction system and custom camshaft as the stock Exorcist, along with its upgraded valve springs, intakes, lifters and pushrods. The car also receives a high-flow catalytic converter and an HPE engine management calibration over the standard Camaro.

Under the hood, the Hennessey Exorcist 30th Anniversary Camaro uses a 6.2-litre, supercharged V8 engine that has been tuned to produce over 1,000hp and 1,197Nm. This allows the Exorcist to do the 0-100kph sprint in 2.1sec and go on to hit a top speed of 350kph.
