Well if the dumbass diesel bros flock to this thing - that would at least be an improvement

Now that it's 2020, we can use adaptive cruise to stay mere millimeters from the bumper of the car in front.

Extreme tailgating!

A vehicle this large and heavy with a 0-60 run of 3 sec.  Nasty crashes are going to happen more frequently.  In 5 years I can see the govt limiting acceleration times for electric vehicles of a certain size and weight. 

The vast majority of people have no business driving anything that can hit 60 in under 8 seconds.

Make that 10 seconds.

Tesla got beat to the market. Why buy a Cyber truck when you can get this sooner?

The regular Hummers will be cheaper. How much cheaper is the question........

As gaudy as it all looks, I like it! Removable roof idea is sweet- very modular and presumably should be quieter than Jeeps and much more useful than "bulletproof glass".

I guess the Cybertruck is also expected in late 2021. But will that actually happen? We haven't seen a production-looking Cybertruck yet, only the concept that doesn't seem workable.

I'm getting ads for the Hummer EV and I think the promises they're making are fucking eye-popping.. Diesel brodozers RIP. Outclassed.

Each individual motor is a bit more powerful than my Bolt's motor. And it has 3 of them.

And it probably weighs 8,000 lbs. :lol:

"The year is 2020. GMC releases a Hummer with a quicker 0-60 (3.0 sec) than Ferrari's latest GT supercar, the Roma (3.2 sec). Sounds about right."

Ferrari should go EV and blast the sound of a synthesized hundred-cylinder engine at drivers' ears. :lol:

Three motors and 350 mile range.  How long would it take to charge this thing at home with an upgraded level 2 type charger?  It's generally overnight for a Tesla or Bolt.

Well, at least it doesn't look as horrible as the previous Hummer...garbage dumpster with wheels.

A lot of people are complaining bout the price, but if one consider that a Ram TRX is around $100.000 then it does not seem that crazy to pay $12.000 more for the Hummer.

If the preorder books are full, then the price must be reasonable :huh:

GM said it sold out of the first batch in 10 minutes.  $100 deposit required.  Not sure how many trucks were in the first batch.
