I am not into electric but this is outstanding. Between the Bronco and this the Wrangler is going to be in serious trouble.

Fair enough

Hell, that thing looks more like a Bronco than a Hummer! Fugly as home made sin...

With a base price of $80K, I might order 2

Man they really continued the tradition of hummer consumer vehicle being UGLY AS SHIT

 

[Chris]

Ugly as shit, that’s for sure.

Well it’s GM so.....

 

[Zorba]

Good point. GM's styling has gone to Hell since around Y2K. The Aztek design language permeated the entire line, starting with Cadillac and moved right down. *blech* How did they screw up this EV Hummer? It looks like a Chevy/Bronco love child, not a HumVee!

Zero idea. I haven’t looked at any of their vehicles on the last 10 years outside of the corvette and thought, damn that looks nice!!!

GM jumped the shark for me. About the only one I’d own is vintage.

And GM is so low energy. Seriously, this was a lame duck release.

I'd actually say it looks more like a jeep than anything else

0 to 60 in 3 seconds is a lame duck?

That angle makes it look more like a Ford Flex than anything else.

I don't really mind the looks. If an electric truck could go 300ish miles a charge while towing I'd check one out but until then it's just a crazy priced toy.

I kinda like the truck but not that price tag! I wonder if it pays off going electric than gas. Does the amount($) of electricity lower than the amount($) needed for gas.

edit: that thing can crabwalk that’s crazy

 

[abart]

It looks like a modern day Chevy Avalanche and, at least to me, those are hideous.

Yes because EV is not a viable option right now and it doesn’t compete with well, anything.


Tesla impressed me more with their fast car. At least that has a market.

Yeah, the problem presents itself when towing or long highway driving.

I read an article somewhere recently talking about the Tesla Cybertruck and how all that power and torque to tow sounds awesome, but the fact of the matter is that if you actually tow all that weight, the battery is just going to drain like crazy.

I still think that the ultimate solution is a hybrid. A big battery for in town driving, but an I.C.E. that can be used for towing.
