2022 GMC Hummer EV Review // $110,000 Powerhouse

The 2022 Hummer EV Edition 1 Pickup (~$140,000 CAD, $110,295 USD) is a massive, fully electric supertruck that has been designed to conquer any off-road terrain. It has use of up to 11,500 lb ft of torque, 1000 horsepower, and has a claimed 0-60 acceleration time of approximately 3 seconds. The Hummer EV Pickup is also packed with tech, such as GM’s Super Cruise and 800V DC fast charging - which can charge up to 129 kms of its 560 km estimated range in just 10 minutes. But how is it to drive? And besides its large size, is it compromised in any way as a road-going vehicle? Thomas and James find out! SUBSCRIBE!

Hey everyone. Quick correction on the amazing UX/Graphics interface of the Hummer screens. YES it uses Unreal Engine, but the animations and digital details themselves were not crafted by Epic Games. Everything from the instrument cluster to the center stack was designed by Perception. The same people that make wicked cool graphics for the Marvel movies. Thanks and enjoy the video!

3.4 seconds to 60 in a vehicle this heavy is absolutely terrifying. What a feat

“Freedom” mode with a speed limiter is like saying I’m 100% honest and also a politician.

[same_honestly]

I work as a tech at a GMC dealership, and we got out first shipment of Hummer EVs around 2 weeks ago.
I think the biggest problem with the Hummer is the fact that someone bought one, and is already trying to resell it for $300, 000 on the secondary market. Once they become a reasonably available, I think they’ll be great. But unless you already got one, there’s no shot you’ll ever get one at a reasonable price.

Just picked up this truck for $95k with 4500 miles on it, effectively brand new and it’s absolutely fantastic. As a Tesla owner of 5yrs I love this as I know what I want in an EV, and now it also has supercharger access too, I’m fine with this as viable for medium road trips. Equivalent range to my old Model 3 Performance.. and equivalent performance which is frankly bonkers.

I respect that speed limiter. With that curb weight I'll bet it could easily drive through multiple buildings if it lost control at more than 105 miles per hour.

Every other car reviewer: "GM engineers have done a great job with the vibration motors in the car."
James from Throttle House: "Someone in GM really likes Butt Stuff." 🤣🤣🤣

That's why I love Throttle House!

I love that crab walk shot. It looked like the truck was drifting in slow motion. Amazing!!

[stocksurfing]

Without a doubt the best looking EV truck right now.

This video captures the heart-pounding excitement and unmatched strength of the HUMMER. A true masterpiece!

The days of shaking off a ran-over foot are long gone! 10k pounds is a bone-crushing game changer.

[AIRDRAC]

I love the styling and the ridiculousness of this ... car (in the loosest sense of the word)! However, I am so terrified of the thought of a soccer mom driving this down a street, with her eyes glued to her phone, flattening an entire school class, and the school bus without even noticing. Or managing to hit 100+ mph in city traffic in under 6 seconds!

[MrRivensteel]

I would love to see an EV pickup roundup with this, the Lightning, and the R1T! Please make it happen!

[snakecharmer]

"It's over 9, 000!!!" Priceless!

[yuk]

It comes with 35” s and has room for 37”s. Also you have extraction mode it can lift itself
6” to get itself unstuck off roading. We just got our first one in at our dealer. And I think it’s really cool. Can’t afford it but love that exists.

[Kumoiwa]

Nothing more representative of America than claiming a "Freedom mode" and then limiting your top speed 😂😂😂

[DBUCKS]

I like the Donut reference! You guys are class acts, making great content and supporting your fellow car content creators.

[Ferretts]

106 mph is due to the tire speed rating.... They will suffer catastrophic failure if subjected to speeds above 106 for prolonged periods of time

[onesadtech]

I'm honestly super impressed at what I've see on this vehicle so far! Can't wait to see some off-road content soon, and also to see what initial quality and reliability the productions models have, could be interesting! Great overview, thanks for sharing!
I personally think the Rivian R1T may not be as "cool" as this, but the R1T is a lot more practical and affordable, with is more impressive and exciting to me. 😊 I'm just stoked on any solid contenders in the EV space though, competition is great for us consumers.

I speak on behalf of all space fans when we say were upset at 18:05. That’s a Saturn V not a shuttle! :) Space lingo aside, awesome video. Throttle House is by far the best car review channel on YouTube.
