ELECTRIC HUMMER: WHAT IS KNOWN ABOUT THE UPDATE OF THE LEGENDARY CAR

We summarize everything that is known about the project to revive the legendary SUVs with a new (and very environmentally friendly) feature

It has been more than 10 years since the last Hummer model - H3 - was discontinued. And it seems that the SUV manufacturers have found a way to effectively return to the market. Today, information is spreading online that Hummer is returning. And not just like that. But as the first electric car of the GMC brand and the GM concern. So let's talk about what interesting things this new product will bring.

1. The car's power plant will be able to develop up to 1,000 hp, and the amount of torque at the wheels, thanks to gearboxes, will reach 15.5 thousand newton meters. The Hummer EV will gain its first 60 miles per hour in 3 seconds.
2. The SUV will receive a traditional radiator grille with six slats, the HUMMER inscription and backlighting, LED optics, a bumper with a large air intake and bulging wheel arches.
3. GM promises to make the SUV more dynamic than modern supercars. At the moment, the developers have not reported on the range or battery capacity and promise to publish these details closer to the official premiere date.
4. The assembly of the new Hummer will remain on American territory: the Detroit-Hamtramck plant in Michigan has been announced as the place of production of the electric car.
5. According to unofficial data, the Hummer EV will cost at least $ 70 thousand at American dealers: GMC calls itself the only manufacturer of premium pickup trucks in the world. Therefore, the price tag should be appropriate.
6. Another interesting fact: in official reports, the upcoming novelty is mentioned as a "truck". However, it is still unclear what exactly GMC means by this word. Probably, we are talking about a rugged SUV, although radical innovation may also lead to the fact that the first electric Hummer will debut as a pickup truck.

All guesses will be confirmed or refuted on May 20. It is on this date that the full debut of the revived legend is scheduled.
