Planned a trip to Texas to test the new Chevy EVs, but GM offered a 2024 GMC Hummer EV instead! They say everything's bigger in Texas, right?
A Big Surprise for a Texas Trip
The Hummer EV is a controversial electric vehicle. It boasts the biggest battery pack on the market (212 kWh) but suffers from inefficiency (1.6 miles per kWh) due to its massive weight (over 9,000 pounds).
Hummer EV: Electric But Not Exactly Green
With its high price tag and inefficiency, the Hummer EV might be more of a novelty item or a second car for someone with a large garage.
Hummer EV: Novelty or Practical?
The Hummer EV features GM's impressive infotainment system with Google integration and Apple CarPlay (although the native system is preferred).
High Points of the Hummer EV
The Hummer EV is packed with off-road features like Crab Walk Mode, adaptive air suspension, various driving modes, and impressive four-wheel steering.
Off-Roading Fun with the Hummer EV
GM's Super Cruise driver assistance system continues to impress, handling a highway trip with minimal intervention.
Super Cruise to the Rescue!
The Hummer EV struggles with DC fast charging, despite a supposed 300 kW capability. The maximum speed observed was 175 kW, and the car needs to be completely off for charging.
Fast Charging Frustrations
The Hummer EV's detachable T-top roof panels provide a fun open-air experience, especially at night (too hot for Texas daytime use!).
Open Air Fun with Detachable Roof Panels
The 2024 GMC Hummer EV 3X SUV comes with a hefty price tag of $109,215.
