2024 GMC Hummer EV SUV | MotorWeek Road Test

The reborn GMC Hummer all-electric pickup delivered all the off-road chops we expect from a Hummer, plus the supercar-like acceleration of a high-performance EV that we didn’t expect. Well, now things have come full circle, as the Hummer is once again an SUV. So, let’s burn up some rubber, and some electrons, and learn what’s next for Hummer.

I bought a 2005 H2 Hummer off of a guy whose company had bought him a brand-new, loaded Hummer EV. He gave me a ride in it and yes, it is very nice, very gigantic and super fast! I loved it!

[LandonMillertotheMaxx]

2 words. VERY TUFF. this 10, 000 pound beast is very FAST. well done GM. i hope there will be more HUMMER EVs like this one. hmm, what about a 7 seat version of it. one day.

[dohc]

It's impressive how something so big and heavy can be so quick. E beast.

Now everyone else on the road is going to feel compelled to buy a 4-5000lb suv so they don't get completely obliterated in a wreck with a 8000lb truck that can accelerate as fast as a Ferrari from 15 years ago. We're moving the needle up in the direction of huge, heavy cars in a safety arms race.

That's commendable that if anything, they give a cautiously low range estimate. Tesla, on the other hand, has gotten in trouble for stretching the truth about the range of its vehicles.

I was ready to take the braking distance of a heavy vehicle like this to task. But 130 feet from 60 mph is not that bad.

[cubedtothex]

The Cybertruck makes this look quite ordinary, but I a GOOD way. I wish I saw more of these on the road too!

[EmperorNefarious]

People should need a CDL for something like this. It is above the weight limit for several roads in my area.

[dpharr]

With level 1 charging it would take 3 days to charge it

But it's still pretty cool

[lawnmowerdude]

What’s funny is that this new Hummer has the same range as the old H2 in weights very close to that as well, but is much much faster.

[josephammenti]

I'd like to have the thousand horsepower truck version, I really like that vehicle, they need to make a thousand horsepower SUV version as well and they should make a Special version that has titanium rims, carbon fiber hood and trunk and fenders and carbon fiber seats

[jorgerodrigogomezflores]

I’d like to test drive one of these, while it won’t be the most useful or efficient vehicle on the road, it is interesting at the very least without being polarizing.

[OpeoAslam]

You can get a 40+ foot Cornhusker hopper bottom trailer that weighs less than this tank.

[Sloimer]

Didn’t know they had an Electric Hummer in 1997

[DonnieDarko]

Time for the semi truck family hauler😂

[frontxxrunner]

That torque number is not accurate. I know that's what GM is reporting, but they're playing games with the gear ratios. I'm sure their actual torque number is outstanding, but incredibly lower than 11, 500. It's ridiculous and false advertising.

[revelare_xvii]

Just imagine how fast this thing would be if the top speed wasn’t electronically limited.

[domjfante]

I’m sorry but why is no one talking about the fact that this thing makes 11, 000 lb-ft of torque? Thats absolutely bonkers for any passenger EV.

[elementkx]

Love the looks. But geez thats a lot of mass moving down the street wit supercar speed.

[nicholassmith]

FYI that torque figure is at the wheels, which is not how torque is usually measured.
