 Texas-based hypercar manufacturer Hennessey has set its sights on America's favorite mid-engine sports car, the Chevrolet Corvette C8 Stingray. Their latest creation, the Hennessey Supercharged 'H700' Corvette C8 Stingray, transforms the convertible into an open-air powerhouse, rivaling the performance of the high-performance Z06 variant.

The stock C8 Stingray convertible boasts a mid-mounted 6.2-liter V8 engine, generating 490 horsepower and 465 lb-ft of torque. Hennessey's "H700" package throws open the gates to a staggering 708 horsepower and 638 lb-ft of torque, representing a significant 44% increase in horsepower and a 37% jump in torque compared to the factory specifications.

This surge in power is achieved through a comprehensive upgrade package. The heart of the upgrade lies in a belt-driven supercharger, working in conjunction with a high-flow air induction system, an upgraded fuel system, and a free-flowing cat-back exhaust system. Hennessey further refines the package with their own engine and transmission calibration, ensuring optimal performance and control. All necessary gaskets and fluids are also included for a complete and reliable experience.

For those seeking even more personalization, Hennessey offers a range of optional upgrades. These include an active-valve exhaust system for a thrilling soundtrack, forged 19-inch alloy wheels for a sportier stance, and a distinctive "Hennessey C8 Heritage Livery" for those who want their supercharged Stingray to stand out from the crowd.

With the Hennessey Supercharged 'H700' package, the Corvette C8 Stingray hard top convertible transforms from a capable sports car into a true supercar, ready to deliver exhilarating open-air performance that rivals the best in its class.
