Lincoln Navigator Hennessey HPE600 Is One Seriously Fast SUV
Hennessey Performance has developed a reputation for building all sorts of fast vehicles, everything from souped-up Ford Mustang models to supercharged, V8-powered F-150 Raptors. But for those looking for something a little more, shall we say, large and luxurious, the Texas-based tuner is also offering a seriously fast Lincoln Navigator. Dubbed the HPE600, the Hennessey Navigator is more than capable of getting little Billy to soccer practice on time, no matter how far behind his parents are running.
In stock form, the Navigator produces 450 horsepower and 500 pound-feet of torque from its 3.5L EcoBoost V6, which is more than enough for most folks. Regardless, the Hennessey Navigator takes things up a few notches thanks to a host of updates including a high-flow air induction system, turbo wastegate modifier, air-to-air front-mounted intercooler upgrade, intercooler piping upgrade, stainless steel catback exhaust system, and an engine management computer software upgrade.
The result of all that work is a cool 600 horsepower at 6,000 rpm, a 4.8 second 0-60 time, and a quarter-mile time of just 12.9 seconds at 107 miles-per-hour. Not too shabby for a heavy, full-size luxury utility, and a big improvement over the stock numbers of 5.9 seconds and 14.5 seconds, respectively.
