The 2026 GMC Hummer EV is arriving as the fifth model year for the Pickup and the third for the SUV. The model line serves as a duo of halo products for the GMC brand, representing what GMC and the BT1 platform are capable of in terms of on-road performance and off-road capability. These super EVs get a round of updates for the 2026 model year, but a native NACS charge port isn’t one of them.
We previously expected 2026 to be the first model year that the Hummer EV gets a North American Charging System (NACS) charge port, but now we can confirm that the 2026 GMC Hummer EV will keep the Combined Charging System (CCS) charge port. This expectation was based on GM’s announcement in late 2024 that the 2026 model year was when GM EVs would get NACS charge ports. Now, 2026 model-year EVs are arriving on the market, like the Hummer EV and Cadillac Vistiq, and there are still no GM EVs with NACS ports.
However, GM’s official NACS DC Adapter (RPO code RYU) can be ordered for an extra $225. This adapter opens up access to the Tesla Supercharger network and the growing IONNA public charging network. Without the adapter, the 2026 GMC Hummer EV can still plug in at charging stations from the likes of Electrify America, ChargePoint, and EVgo.
The start of regular production (SORP) for the 2026 GMC Hummer EV Pickup and SUV is scheduled for July 14th, 2025. Dealers have been able to submit orders starting on May 30th.
Pricing for the 2026 models is forthcoming, but we expect it to be similar to the 2025 models. The 2025 GMC Hummer EV Pickup and SUV both start at $98,845 for the base 2X trim and $106,945 for the 3X trim.
For motivation, the Hummer EV 2X models equip a pair of GM drive motors, while the 3X trims are powered by three motors. A 20-module battery pack utilizing GM battery technology is standard across the board, and the Pickup in the 3X trim is available with a 24-module battery pack.
For the 2026 model year, the GMC Hummer EV will continue to use the GM BT1 platform. Production takes place at the GM Factory Zero plant in Michigan.

Good. NACS would be a downgrade.
It’s sad that a site dedicated to GM vehicles doesn’t mention the Hummer EV can charge at a rate of 350kW, but the current NACS chargers in the wild max out at 250 kW. No GM EV with the large pack should switch to NACS at this point.
who cares? Tesla charging for this vehicle is slow anyway. Best bet is to stick with 350kw+ chargers whenever possible considering this huge battery. I recall reading something a while ago saying GM wasnt switching the trucks to NACs in the near term for this very reason.
In the fourth largest city in the USA, there are 16 chargers that can do 350kw – so for the vast majority of EV owners that’s just not going to be a reasonable thing to do at this point in time.
How can Ford and GM be the first two Legacy Automakers to allegedly adopt NACS and be beaten out by Hyundai/Kia and Toyota/Subaru to the marketplace.
It is wild to me how slow Detroit moves
Some Tesla V4 Stalls can currently charge at 350kW and the ones that will be getting the All New Power Cabinets will be able to charge at 500kW
But NACS opens up a increased number of charging locations…..why wouldn’t you want that??
