GMC has taken one of the most famous SUVs ever built and redefined it into a vehicle of the future. Hummer EV is the world’s first all-electric super truck, in every sense of the word. Let’s explore all the revolutionary technologies, features, and benefits of purchasing a brand new Hummer EV.
Design
From a low-turret roof profile reminiscent of military models to the hood, Hummer EV preserves a lot of design cues that defined the brand. However, there are several new features you should be excited about like the imposing front grille, aggressive wheel arch contours, and the upright windshield.
The Infinity roof is broken down into tinted Sky panels that can be removed to open up the interior. When you’re on the move, you don’t need to care about the weather - Sky panels and front I-bar are easily stored inside the spacious cargo area underneath the hood.
Power
To create a true super truck, the R&D team had to switch from an internal combustion engine to battery power and create a boundary-pushing Ultium battery system. This allows Hummer EV to cross greater distances, deliver massive power when needed and handle off-road conditions better than any other vehicle.
In terms of numbers, Hummer EV pickup can do 0-60 in 3 seconds, or 3.5 seconds in SUV. It’s well-known that electric vehicles output more torque than gas or diesel vehicles, but at 11,500 lb-ft. of torque, Hummer EV is in a league of its own.
GMC estimates the power of the pickup model at breathtaking 1,000 horsepower or 830 hp in the SUV. Usually, high-power electric vehicles sacrifice range to achieve it, but not Hummer EV. Take a seat, step on the gas, and travel over 300 miles on a single battery charge.
Interior
The unmistakable Hummer look is evident inside the cabin, where comfort is combined with convenience in the best way possible. Embracing progress, Hummer EV’s driver information center is a 12.3” high definition screen, while the center-mounted 13.4” infotainment system handles your every need.
Lunar Shadow interior mixes jet black and taupe with tech bronze accents creates a dark, elegant interior. For something with more contrast, jet black and light gray create the beautiful Lunar Horizon layout.
Off-Road
The original Hummer was built with the singular purpose of safely transporting troops safely in off-road conditions. Hummer EV continues this legacy with capabilities that surpass anything you’ve seen up to this point.
CrabWalk is a brilliant 4-wheel steering system that makes a super truck maneuver like a supermini car. Up to 10 degrees turn radius is going to make a big difference in tight situations, especially on narrow mountain trails.
Crossing water, tall obstacles, and rough terrain are made easier with the Extract mode. Hummer’s Air Ride Suspension will lift 6” and create a massive separation between the vehicle and terrain.
While others have only their eyes to rely on, Hummer EVs Ultravision utilizes up to 18 cameras to give you an edge wherever you go. GMC’s standard HD surround vision is bolstered by front and rear-facing underbody cameras to always know exactly what is happening around you.
High-Tech

On these roads, you can sit back and let the automated driving system take control of steering and changing lanes.
By using Regen on Demand and One-Pedal Driving, Hummer EV conserves energy to get further ahead. With a maximum charging speed of 100 miles in 10 minutes, crossing greater distances in an electric vehicle has never been more convenient.
