Post Malone boasts his custom-built Hennessey VelociRaptor 6×6

Popular American rapper Post Malone has shown us his unique Hennessey VelociRaptor 6×6 that looks a fair bit more like a Mars rover than a street-legal pickup truck.

The Texas-based tuner probably built the three-axle car to look and feel like the Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG 6×6. The team has devised an original way to extend the truck bed to accommodate the third axle. You may lock any of the three anytime for maximum off-road performance.

Hennessey also equipped the vehicle with an in-house designed suspension, additional lights on the roof and the front fascia, and a set of 20-inch wheels clad in meaty off-road tires. The body of Malone’s unique VelociRaptor 6×6 also sports a white paintjob with occasional black accents.

The tuner has also tinkered with the stock 3.5-liter twin-turbo mill of the pickup, bringing its performance up to a stellar 602 hp (449 kW) and 843 Nm (622 lbft) of torque.

Wrapping up the list of changes is a rather unexpected ‘gift’ that the company felt like giving the rapper. The truck bed now houses a custom mount for a .50-caliber machine gun!

Impressive, wouldn’t you agree?
