This is the highest trim and the most expensive, starting at $112,595 before destination. For the record, all of these toys were equipped as standard on the trucks we drove, which were First Edition trim levels. It's all in there, but there's also a slew of physical switchgear that makes it all very accessible and easily selectable. There is everything from suspension settings to steering configurations to traction modes, and that’s not to mention comfort features like the heated and cooled seats.
The array of gizmos that are embedded in this truck-and by extension, its 13.4-inch center display-are pretty top-notch. It's also why this first drive review is missing the usual spec box-GMC didn't provide me with any production specs. This preliminary drive represents what I experienced during one afternoon spent behind the wheel of the Hummer EV-but keep in mind that what I drove was still a prototype, so things may differ between this and the production version. Everything changed as soon as I started to snoop around that massive center screen and put this thing through its paces. Those were just my initial impressions when I stepped in, too. It has a flat floor which makes it feel awfully roomy, and its four-panel glass roof makes the whole interior feel airy, like a greenhouse. Because it's an EV, it's just different than any other big truck that I've been in before. But as soon as I climbed into this new beast all those things-all of these separate features-added up in ways I didn’t expect. I'm sure you’ve probably seen all the Hummer EV's impressive specs online: 1,000 horsepower, more torque than God, and the ability to drive diagonally, to name a few. It was time to see if it lived up to all the hype.īecause there is a ton of hype.
The 2022 GMC Hummer EV isn’t actually capable of doing any of those things, of course, but when General Motors invited me to the company’s Milford Proving Grounds in Michigan to be one of the first to drive a prototype version of the truck, I accepted in a hurry. In its reveal video, it triggered an earthquake, tore open a big crack in the earth, and broke the sound barrier. The Hummer name returned to GM’s lineup officially when it was revealed to the world several months ago as an electric pickup truck to the tune of "Immigrant Song" by Led Zeppelin.
