FULLY CHARGED. FULLY ELECTRIC.
ZERO EMISSIONS. ZERO LIMITS. ZERO EQUALS.
As the world’s first zero emissions, zero limits all-electric supertruck, the revolutionary HUMMER EV Pickup is engineered to conquer nearly any terrain. Now meet the next all-electric supertruck—the revolutionary GMC HUMMER EV SUV. It combines the features of the pickup with the benefits of an SUV to earn its own supertruck status.
The car maker officially announce this on their twitter handle.
The company speak person told us that, The Hummer EV is arguably the most important vehicle for them to be announced as part of General Motors multi-billion dollar pivot to electrification. It was revealed during a virtual event set to air during the World Series, “The Voice,” and across a barrage of social media and streaming platforms. The electric truck will be the first vehicle to feature General Motors’ new modular electric vehicle platform and battery, known as Ultium.
The Hummer’s “Electric Super Truck” is packed with 3 electric motors, 1000 Horsepower, adjustable air suspension, and diagonal driving feature,designed to move car somewhat “Bishop” moves in chess board!, more accurately they called it “Crab Mode”.
CrabWalk is a revolutionary available setting utilizing HUMMER EV’s available 4-Wheel Steer (its rear wheels can turn up to 10 degrees in either direction) to drive diagonally at low speeds, helping it to traverse tight trails with a capability that no other competitive SUV is expected to offer at least right now.
The electric truck is set to go into production in early 2023, possibly ahead of Tesla’s Cybertruck. 😉
Engine, Transmission, and Performance
Based on the Hummer EV pickup truck–and hinted at by the superscript in their model names–the SUV version will be powered by two or three electric motors. The EV2 and EV2X have the dual-motor setup that generates an estimated 625 horsepower and what GM is claiming to be 7400 pound-feet of torque. The EV3X and the Edition 1 have a trio of motors (one up front and two out back) with a claimed 830 ponies and 11,500 pound-feet.
Range, Charging, and Battery Life
For EVs, Battery is their Heart and soul just like engines in traditional vehicle, hence very important component of the vehicle.
Every Hummer benefits from GM’s new Ultium battery technology, which makes it considerably more Eco-friendly than the old gas-guzzling H2 and H2 SUT. While the base EV2 model features a standard 400-volt electrical system, it’s also offered with the 800-volt system that comes standard on every other trim. GM has already said that the Hummer EV will have a huge 200.0-kWh battery pack, but we still don’t know the official size or its useable capacity. Still, along with fast charging speeds of up to 300 kW, the electrified SUV has a claimed driving range of over 300 miles. They also claim 100 miles range per 10 minutes charging. which is very impressive at the moment.
Interior, Comfort, and Cargo
The interior of the Hummer EV SUV is part rugged and part Sci-Fi. Its three-dimensional dashboard boasts both vertical and horizontal air vents and a pair of large displays that include a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster. Rather than frustrate users for the sake of appearances, the Hummer has lots of hard buttons and physical switchgear, including a thick T-shaped shifter and a rotary drive-mode selector on the center console. The materials in the top-of-the-line Edition 1 also look very upscale, with leather-stitched surfaces and distinct bronze accents. Another defining feature of the Hummer’s cabin is its removable roof panels. Called the Infinity Roof, the system allows users to lift off the four transparent Sky Panels and the I-bar above the front-seat passengers. Along with storage under the load floor, the SUV Hummer boasts an expansive 82 cubic feet of cargo space with the rear seat folded.

Infotainment and Connectivity
The Hummer’s cutting-edge electric technology will be complemented by a large 13.4-inch touchscreen infotainment system and extensive connectivity options. As with most GMC models, desirable content such as Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and a subscription-based Wi-Fi hotspot is expected to come standard. We’d also expect available upgrades to include a powerful Bose stereo, built-in navigation, a rear-seat infotainment system, and wireless charging. The SUV Hummer is also available with a 6.0-kW onboard generator that can be used to power all sorts of equipment and even charge other EVs.
Safety and Driver-Assistance Features
The Hummer EV SUV will have an enhanced version of GM’s Super Cruise that will allow hands-free driving on the highway. We also expect it to have a host of driver-assistance technology that currently graces many mainstream models. For more information about the Hummer EV SUV’s crash-test results, visit the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) websites. Key safety features will likely include:
- Standard forward-collision warning and automated emergency braking
- Standard lane-departure warning and lane-keeping assist
- Standard adaptive cruise control
