Little by little, the return of the Hummer name to the automotive world is taking shape. So, after having already known it as a pick-up, the GMC Hummer EV now presents itself as an SUV.
It maintains the same robust look that characterizes the pick-up, with the roof — Infinity Roof — divided into three removable and transparent parts, which we can store in the “frunk” (the front luggage compartment). The big news is the rear volume, where the cargo compartment is now “closed” and the fifth door (trunk) in which the spare tire is mounted.
Inside, everything has remained the same, with the two sizable screens — 12.3″ for the instrument panel and 13.4″ for the infotainment system — and the large center console separating the prominent front passengers. if.
Respect Numbers
Developed on the basis of GM's Ultium platform, the GMC Hummer EV SUV will see production start in early 2023 in the form of the exclusive Edition 1 version equipped with three electric motors.
In this case, the price will start at 105 595 dollars (approximately 89 994 euros) and the North American SUV presents itself with 842 hp, 15 592 Nm (at the wheel) and more than 483 km of autonomy (down to around 450 km with the optional off-road package).
For the spring of 2023, a version with just two engines is expected to arrive, totaling 634 hp and 10 033 Nm (at wheel), which should offer 483 km of autonomy.
Finally, in the spring of 2024, the entry-level version arrives, which will cost $79,995 (about 68,000 euros). It maintains the two engines, with 634 hp and 10 033 Nm (at the wheel), but uses a smaller battery pack and has a 400 V charging system (the others use an 800 V/300 kW) and the range is reduced to around 402 km.
Interestingly, unlike the pick-up, the SUV variant of the GMC Hummer EV will not have a version with 1000 hp, with GM not explaining why this option.
