After months of hype and a decade on the shelf, the Hummer nameplate has returned. General Motors just unveiled the new GMC Hummer EV during a livestream debut event, pulling the sheets on a high-tech, high-powered, and highly capable supertruck.
Outside, the new GMC Hummer EV takes styling cues from its predecessors with a wide, horizontal fascia that reveals the Hummer nameplate in script between the headlamps when illuminated. The stance is tall and wide, with steel underbody armor located around the battery pack for aggressive off-roading strength.
The profile reveals a four-door cab with a short rear bed, while 35-inch Goodyear Wrangler Territory MT tires make the traction.
Under the skin is GM’s new EV-dedicated BT1 architecture, which cradles the automaker’s latest Ultium lithium-ion battery technology and Ultium Drive motor technology. Customers can choose from several different powertrains, including a dual-motor and triple-motor setup. The range-topping three-motor model produces over 1,000 horsepower and 11,500 pound-feet of torque, propelling the GMC Hummer EV to 60 mph in just three seconds. Lower in the lineup, output levels include 625-horsepower and 800-horsepower models.
The new GMC Hummer EV is quick on pavement, but it’s also quite capable off-road, with a long list of features to help it conquer just about any terrain, such as Crabwalk Mode with the new four-wheel steering system, and adaptive air suspension. The new Hummer also features removable roof panels and an Open Air Infinity Roof.
Inside the cabin, the GMC Hummer EV comes with a 12.3-inch diagonal digital instrument cluster and 13.4-inch digital infotainment screen. The GM Super Cruise driver assist system is also available.
Production is slated for the GM Factory Zero facility, formerly known as GM Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly plant in Michigan, with the first customer-bound units hitting dealers in the fall of 2021 for the 2022 model year. Pricing for the 250-mile, two-motor Hummer EV2 starts at $79,995, while the two-motor, 300-mile Hummer EV2X starts at $89,995. The three-motor, 300-mile Hummer EV3X starts at $99,995. Finally, the limited-edition Hummer EV Edition 1 starts at $112,595, and comes with three motors and 350 miles of range. Reservations are open now for just $100.

To hell with ‘Hummer is Reborn’ – “GM is reborn!”
Comment of the Year right here. This is simply remarkable.
take another look at that interior. that is hardly remarkable.
for a $113K vehicle, it is remarkably boring.
Why do you want an S Class interior on an offroad truck? That’s like wrapping a chainsaw in leather and carbon fiber. I don’t think you have even the slightest grasp on the kind of vehicle this is, steve.
i’m not saying it should. but for that much money, i’d expect more than a slightly upgraded silverado interior.
Oh, I didn’t know you sat in one…
They followed the Rivian type interior for an adventure truck. It’s meant to take abuse
Reborn? How about back from the grave!
Hummer should be vinned as GMC to eliminate need for new dealers, but behave like a stand alone “premium” brand.
Buick, starting with Avenir trim, should go EV in US, too, aimed right at Tesla. Screw Cadillac, best to have the EVs all under one roof and a collection of GMC Hummers and Buick Avenirs can accomplish it.
Yeah, but I wish a GMC Hummer ICE had also been produced to give customers a choice. Opel now offers each model as ICE petrol, ICE diesel, & EV.
Hummer has AMAZING technology like crab walk that blow Tesla, Jeep and Rover away!
This level of technology throughout the GMC line up would global appeal. Would love seeing Crab Walk find itself in an elevated wagon and sedan, too!
Go ahead and attack me, I know you will.
This doesn’t look very exciting to me. It’s … kind of boring looking. Like it’s 10 years old already.
The similar styling is kind of the point I think. Hummer was discontinued 10 years ago so it hasn’t had 10 years of styling evolution. However, I’d say this is significantly modernized and the interior looks to hit that Land Rover / G-Wagon sweet spot in terms of utilitarian styling, high end materials, and high tech features.
I’m with Andy.
I think it’s incredible how GM was able to cover an entire decade of zero Hummer products, and make the Hummer EV look like the perfect natural progression of that design language. Seems to confirm the rumors that GM has been experimenting with Hummer designs since 2010 to keep the styling fresh for a potential future rebirth.
I think its amazing.
Obama killed off 10 plus years of Hummer profits. Volt and Bolt have made GM zero profit.
GM, not Obama, killed Hummer. Gas prices were insane, we were in a near depression, and only small car makers (Toyota, Honda, VW, BMW) were making money. Sad FIAT got Jeep and Ram because even Hyundai and VW were terrified.
You could argue Obama killed Saturn by trying to force an Opel sale. but the brand moved only 100,000 cheap units yearly.
The Auto Taskforce and Steve Ratner had opinions but thewe were more about transforming GM into Toyota.
how can you put this interior in the same ballpark as a land rover or g wagon? that is not the interior of a $113K vehicle.
do those seats scream high end materials? these are basically the same seats found in a silverado.
Maybe they are, but they are still some of the most comfortable seats I have sat in!
Well they aren’t. Maybe you should wait to judge materials until…I don’t know…you experience them in person? You can tell virtually nothing from online photos in terms of fell and quality, fit and finish and craftsmanship.
Wow this is a nice suv and the tech I can’t wait to have more detail,,,
Nate, I agree 100%. The outside is more or less a facelift of the H3. It’s the interior/suspension/quadrasteer we have all been demanding on a Silverado, wrapped up in a all season tire package. 1000hp, not impressive as they achieve this by adding capacitors for momentary boosts. It’s kinda like adding NOS to an ICE engine, except NOS can be sustained until the tank runs out on a well designed engine, longer than the 3 second sprint. This is really a 300-400 hp engine if we are talking about sustained power. 11000 ft lbs at the wheel? Nothing! That’s what my 09 with the 5.3 and 4 speed makes when floored in low range. The range is pathetic as well. 350 miles in the top model! 10 minutes for a fast charger to get 100 miles?!?!?! That’s good enough to get from LA to sand Diego, but if you not in California, your screwed!! Drive an hour, refill an hour. This is purely about padding their stocks, which is a shame cause besides its performance specs, this is a cool machine! Quadrasteer, 8” of air suspension adjustment, glass roof! Shame, please put this in the real trucks GM!
Teach me how to be a retard like you.
You seem to know a lot for not knowing anything.
Well, considering I am mechanical engineer with specialty in motor technologies and driving dynamics, I know more than 90% of the people who were at the actual on site reveal, and know more than 99% of the entire world on the physical #’s behind any vehicle. Just saying, the numbers on this machine suck, but they do a great job spinning them!
Steven, you got handily ratioed. If you were such a great mechanical engineer with specialty in motor technologies and driving dynamics, GM would have had you design it. You seem a bit sour to be left off the project. You don’t seem to have a very good grasp on the realities of electric vehicle tech, either.
U r also 100 percent full of iy
Not only is it dated It’s a $100K plus mix bag of tricks Dodge Ram / Jeep Grand Wagoneer front end, GMC tailgate, Cadillac Auto Cruise Steering, and the Raptor 3 grill lights in the front and rear roof, it will cost $10k to repair the Suspension if anything going wrong. I’ll pass that the price of 2 Broncos a SUV and Truck haha
Man it must be hard being that retarded. GM showed off the front end of the Hummer EV way before the Jeep Wagonner CONCEPT was revealed. The 3 lights deal isn’t a Raptor design, it’s a DOT design and HD trucks all have them. Lastly, Cadillac is part of GM and so is GMC do yeah supercruise is going to be a feature lmao. Sounds like you’re a kid, go back and do proper research before you post. Gg2ez
those air vents look like they were inspired by the commodore64 1541 floppy drive.
Nerd. Now I see why you have no clue what the purpose of this truck is.
damn right i’m a nerd.
Hey, we need a little of everything and everyone in this world. But then not all of us will understand everything. A great reality of life…
I’m not sure I know what the purpose of this truck is. I certainly wouldn’t go off roading in a $112k truck.
But I guess if you make over $200k a year and don’t care if you screw up your expensive truck, it makes some sense.
Much like you lame comments…boring!
I’m blown away by the design, performance capabilities, engineering technology, and the interior. GM has impressed me with this one! This and the Sierra Denali are by far the two most bad@ss trucks in the market.
Now this is what Im talking about. This is a winner. Now build SUV body type.
Id love to see this in black. Front is great.
SUV body type is most certainly coming.
Coming next year, in fact. It will be revealed sometime in 2021, production begins in late 2022/early 2023 as a 2023 model, per Car and Driver.
That would explain the gaps in the release of the different versions of the truck.
Absolute home run.
And the ball hit the fascia of the third deck…with the bases loaded.
It flew halfway around the world
This is a big deal and great way to resurrect the Hummer brand.
If it can deliver this beast, GM will finally have flagship vehicle #2 alongside the Corvette.
(Sorry — Cadillac’s stuff seems bland in comparison)
The Cadillac Lyriq has more style. This design is almost antiquated. Nothing ground breaking. The original Hummer was a much better design.
2 absolutely different vehicles, one’s for luxury and one’s for off-road, both purposely expensive..
Great work GM, now bring on the Celestiq ..
N400,
I would not say the Lyriq is bland, but the styling is not there for me.
I love the Escala look, especially in the front, but that large black front on the Lyriq is not for me.
We would for sure buy the smaller version of the Lyriq but if all of the new Cadillac SUVs look like China designed fronts, we will buy another brand of EV SUV.
I love the Escala, the CT6 and the CT5 front and rear. I like the XT4 and the front of the CT4 and not the rear, I do not like any of the Cadillac interiors other than the Escalade, Escala, and Lyriq !
Don’t get me wrong. I like a lot of the Cadillac stuff, but the Hummer has far more presence. And I wish the Escala were a real vehicle because that would have been a winner.
Who can afford it? it’s like a quarterback overthrowing all his receivers. 99 percent of GM’S fanbase will not be to afford this. Why can’t we just have a Blazer to compete with Bronco and Wrangler? Why can’t we just get a decent interior and panoramic moonroof in the Sierra to compete with F150, Ram and even Titan?
I really like it. When I am ready for a EV this is something I would consider.
The styling is spot on as part of the Hummer brand heritage is styling. Much like the 911, Jeep and BMW have been using the same styling for decades.
This was the bomb shell that was needed to introduce the Full Electric models at GM. This will draw attention and give them proof of concept. This also will give the ROI at this price point.
They are about $10K more than what I expected but they are in line with what GM would have been selling the Gas Hummers if they had not gone away. Also with the new batteries they should make a profit decent profit at this price.
Now the Hummer can set the stage for Cadillac and now Cadillac has to wow them just as much.
I also hope some of the styling at Hummer could migrate to the entire GMC line. GM did use the square shouldered look at GMC after the Hummer line was cut. Now can they give it a little more edge. That way those who can not afford a Hummer can buy the next best thing. This worked for Pontiac in the 80’s. People were drawn to the dealers for the TA and Fiero but most could not afford the TA or live with two seats. But they could afford and live with a Grand Am that sold like crazy.
This does make the Tesla truck look like it came from Little Tykes.
Finally a good commercial done by GM. It’s like they tried.
It’s supposed to look like a Hummer.
I think this is just Awesome.
I too really like it !
Everything I see, I like !
Is this a certain % concept like the Lyriq, or is this what we see is what we get ?
is it worth $113K to you? i think the exterior looks cool but that interior ….
steve, get over the interior. You must have never seen the interior of a Ford GT. Pricing means nothing, purpose means everything.
This truck looks much more impressive than the Tesla Cyber Truck.
Eric, anything looks better than the Tesla “truck”. A turd on wheels would look better.
I agree. When will Wall Street catch on?
Eric Vest,
I believe Wall Street will catch on when GM executes on any of the great concepts they have brought forth !
GM has been promising greatness for the last ten years now, while offering GM blah to the masses.
Like Cadillac, I am a Cadillac guy, and have been waiting for 30 years now for a Cadillac I would buy, and have bought some, and drive one, but like the Escala concept GM just would not execute !
I do love everything I see here with this Hummer, and way better than the Lyriq.
Its like GM designed the Hummer for the US market and the Lyriq for the China market, and the people like different things.
If GM wants Cadillac to be a hit like I think this will, GM needs a Cadillac for the US market and one for China !
My comment was was primarily on Wall Street’s over enthusiasm for Tesla. Tesla’s Cyber Truck and gull wing SUV look weak to me. The Hummer looks much better than these Tesla products.
First pic, great. Second pic, even better. Third pic, I’m thinking wow. Then the interior and those f—ing screens. I’m now back to whatever. Then I see the prices: $80,000 starting price to over 100 grand? Only morons will buy these, so I’m sure I’ll see them all over LA.
Damn you GM why didn’t you add an updated midgate to just totally kill it ! Super truck indeed…
I’m trying to reserve one and it’s not working any others having problems?
Frozen earlier, working now.
Not working for me either. Edition 1 reservations are full after 15 min.
Why no mention on its abilities to pull and for how many miles before a charge is required. Pretty important factor for those looking to move from conventional to futuristic.
A lot of the information we got is GM targets. We will know more before it’s released in the final months
@Chade: Great point, but do you really think this is going to be built/sold to people who really used a truck as a truck? Not a chance. This is being built for the people who have more money than brains, which will include a ton of people in southern California.
Real truck drivers who actually use them and pull stuff will stick with the F150, Ram and Silverado.
IMO, very impressive. Buy a Wrangler and add these features and you’re going to pay the around same price. Start with a Range Rover or Mercedes add these features and you blow past the highest price by miles…. These features will end up in other models.
I would like to know what the range would be if used to tow but most would pull something more recreational with 4 wheels for deer hunting, off roading, and just for fun…
I also don’t see charging stations in Rockies, Smokies, and by the lakes – yet…
But it’s bad ass…
” how many miles before a charge is required”? It’s all in the article above:
»
«
@Observer7: I think you kind of cherry picked on this one. Chade asked a great question about it’s ” abilities to pull and for how many miles before a charge is required.”
You simply went back to the article and quoted the estimated range they show along with the prices. I’m not seeing where your quoted material (or the article) makes any claims as to the towing and it’s affect on the range. I think that is what Chade was asking and for good reason. It’s a darn truck! But does it matter? I’m sure less than 1% of these sold will EVER go off road or tow anything besides the small jet ski to the lake. After all, this will be way too expensive for the average person who would normally use a truck like a truck.
When it comes to towing efficiency the Hummer will do better than the Cybertruck. Tesla’s trying to make a truck that has a really efficient shape to get better range. Throw a trailer behind it the range drops like a rock. Behind the Hummer the range reduction would be less.
Edition 1 reservations are full….
Got the 3X variant!
Congrats, @Michael!!
The Goodyear Territory tires are used on the TRX. The running boards should fold up. All Hummers are fat pigs that drag their bellies through the mud, the HUMVEE not so much. The GMC Hummer is the eco-friendly mall crawler for rich truck guys. At this point, I’m sticking with my HEMI’S until they go out of production, and hopefully by then someone will be making a true, nice, electric pickup.
Lol, this thing is about to blow your precious TRX out of the sky, my man. It’s cool how the Ram was the most powerful truck in the world for like 5 minutes. Hummer dominates the Ram, period. As it should be.
Will they change the front headlight animation for a production model? Or it will look exactly like this?
Great truck. Like the interior accents that make references to the lunar rover, and the powertrain is a beast.
Cybertruck looks like a ugly duck compared to this.
When they come out with an Electric Sierra/Yukon, I’ll certainly be in line to get one. The only thing stopping me now is the poor mpg for local driving.
Now to kill two birds with one stone. Create a striped version with a LT4 or LT5 for those of us who prefer trucks that have a burble to them.
I think this truck will do well. Hopefully they can get it to 600 miles plus of range in the near future.
Other than that top notch effort by GM. I appreciate an actual interior for an EV. Looking at you Tesla. GM needs to keep this effort up. The recent Escalade and now this are impressive products from GM. Next is what I want the “Blackwings.” I hope the Blackwings receive a lot of love.
They still have the SUV version to show yet along with more detail.
This will be interesting to watch as each new detail arrives. I expect more surprises.
