The GMC Hummer EV SUV represents a bold leap into the future of electric vehicles, embodying General Motors' ambitious vision for sustainable transportation. With its Ultium battery system, the Hummer EV SUV delivers an astounding 830 horsepower and 11,500 pound-feet of torque, making it a powerhouse on and off the road. The innovative features like the "Watts to Freedom" mode, which unleashes all its torque for an instant, rocket-like start, and the "Crabwalk" mode, allowing all four wheels to steer in the same direction for unparalleled maneuverability, set this vehicle apart in the electric SUV market.
Inside, the Hummer EV SUV is just as impressive. It boasts a large multimedia screen and a driver's display, both designed with a unique textured composite material for a tactile feel. The Super Cruise feature offers hands-free driving, enhancing the driving experience with advanced technology. Practicality is not sacrificed for innovation; the vehicle includes a swing gate for easy access to the cargo area, a spacious trunk, and a one-pedal drive mode to maximize power efficiency. Priced around $96,000, the Hummer EV SUV is a testament to GM's commitment to combining luxury, performance, and cutting-edge technology in an eco-friendly package.

00:00This is the GMC Hummer EV 3X SUV.
00:07This EV is GM's moonshot. When they started developing the Ultium battery system that is
00:12the foundation of all their electric vehicles, they realized there were a lot of really interesting,
00:17innovative, fascinating, and wow factor things that they could do with these cars,
00:22but they couldn't put them in everything. They put them all in the Hummer. What can it do? Well,
00:27it starts with 830 horsepower and 11,500 pound-feet of torque. There is a mode in this car
00:35called WTF, or watts to freedom, that front loads all 11,500 pound-feet of torque for an instant
00:43start. Literally, it's like a rocket going off. It also has something called crab walk. It has
00:50four-wheel steering. All four wheels can steer. At low speeds, they steer the same direction,
00:56which gives the car sort of almost a floaty look and feel as it's driving in crab walk. Ideally,
01:03this is something that can get you out of a tight situation. Maybe it's a tight parking spot,
01:08or maybe it's just a tight rock formation in Moab. On the outside, the Hummer is notable for
01:14the light bar across the front that spells out the Hummer name and for the headlights. There are
01:20lights on top of the vehicle, and on the front, you'll see there are two recovery points or tow
01:25hooks. In the back, the Hummer EV SUV has a swing gate rather than a lift gate, and that's because
01:32it holds the spare tire. It has something called extract mode, where you can use the air suspension
01:38system to raise or lower the vehicle to drive through water or to get out of mud or sand. As
01:44an EV, it has true one-pedal drive mode. You want to save as much power as possible and regenerate
01:50as much as possible, so using one-pedal drive mode helps you do that. Another wow factor in
01:56this SUV is Super Cruise. This is hands-free driving that General Motors has been rolling
02:02out to all of its SUVs and trucks. To use Super Cruise, turn on Adaptive Cruise Control and then
02:08tap the Super Cruise button. Once you do that, you can take your hands off the wheel. You just
02:12can't take your eyes off the road. If you do, the system will stop working. Inside the Hummer EV,
02:18there is a lot to tell. There is a large multimedia screen here and a large driver's
02:24display here. The screens in this SUV are a little different than anything in any other
02:29GMC because these are purpose-made. Notice the textured composite material. These are designed
02:37to give a real tactical feel to the interior of this car. And then we have this. Hey Google,
02:45voice-activated assistance. One of the most important details in this car though is the
02:49drive mode selector. So you can turn this dial to access different drive modes and they'll even
02:56show you a little information about each mode as you select that mode. Each of the drive modes
03:03is illustrated with a graphic, but notice the one on the tow haul. This is the Hummer pulling
03:08the space shuttle. Passengers are going to be very happy for running boards and grab handles
03:15in the GMC Hummer because this is a tall vehicle. Rear seat passengers have an armrest with cup
03:22holders and then they also get their own sunroof panels. To access the cargo area,
03:29you just push the button and the swing gate completely opens up and the seats fold flat
03:35if you need extra cargo space. The Hummer SUV has a very large frunk which is accessed by pushing
03:43this button here on the control panel to the left of the steering wheel. And a lot of people use
03:48this space for tailgating. The Hummer EV SUV has a price of about $96,000 but add a few things in
03:55and it can easily go past $100,000. Driving the GMC Hummer SUV makes you feel larger than life.
04:02It's big and you feel big sitting in the driver's seat, but what's even bigger is how much it can do.
04:08The range is really good. The power is incredible.
04:12The features inside this SUV make you really believe that anything is possible.
