“GMC stresses that the guiding principle of the program was to make the most capable off-road truck ever. To that end, the Hummer rides on 35-inch tires and has a massively adjustable air suspension. So if the standard 10.1 inches of ground clearance isn't enough, an available "Extract Mode" jacks that up to 15.9 inches. That'll get you through two entire feet of standing water and allow you to scale 18-inch verticals, truly absurd stats. For reference, a Wrangler Rubicon has 10.8 inches of ground clearance and the upcoming Bronco with Sasquatch Package has 11.6 inches of daylight below its belly.”

The $112K Hummer will get destroyed in real life by the $70K (highest priced) CyberTruck. I know the CT isn't for everyone, but it has a bed that can actually hold things and by 2024 when the Hummer is actually out in numbers this little company called Ford will probably have had their F-150 electric truck out for 2 years and they will probably have an electric Raptor version. This thing is DOA in my opinion. Tesla, Rivian and Ford will be earlier to market with better offerings for less money.I think this new electric Hummer is freaking awesome... loads of technology... and quite capable of doing a lot of fun stuff with air suspension ... 3 electric motors and a lot of computing power (yeah.. I have to admit.. I am a geek who dwells in electronic and computer tech ) .... of course we will get tons of negative comments in the forums about range, solid axles, water fording.. etc.... but this EV Hummer is not a direct competitor of the Jeep Wrangler... the top of the line Hummer costs $112K.. and is a 100% electric .. does FCA manufacture anything like it? .. argue all you want.. but the future is electric.. as simple as that fellas.. ( the hybrid Wrangler ... YES!!!! please!!! me want!!! )
It seems human nature is to react negatively about innovation ... new ideas.. new approaches to improving the way we do things.. most of the posts on this thread have been negative and/or defensive... I really don't get it.. complain about the carbon footprint of the new Hummer.. or a future EV Wrangler... but.. we did not magically jump from a steam-powered car to a SSC Tuatara .... what would you prefer.. to seat on your couch and complain like a little b!tch about how many trees were destroyed in the making of the EV Hummer.? or be excited about the recent evolution of car technology? ... Your take..
Just to put this into perspective, a 2020 Porsche 911 Carrera S has a 0-60 of 3 seconds...and can’t leave the pavement. It’s $128K. A loaded Escalade is about $90K and they’re extremely popular.its a cool beast! 1000hp 3 sec to 60 damn......$100+ no thanks.......
