GMC captured our attention in the fall of 2020 with their Hummer EV announcement, complete with a list of futuristic features like CrabWalk…yes, seriously. If you are late to the party, learn why Scott Brady calls the EV Hummer “Electric Overland Nirvana”, here. I think it’s fair to say that we’re equally excited for this announcement – GMC has just announced the addition of a Hummer EV SUV to its supertruck lineup for 2024.
“The GMC HUMMER EVs were envisioned to be the most capable and compelling electric supertrucks ever,” said Duncan Aldred, global vice president of Buick and GMC. “The new HUMMER EV SUV is the next chapter, which will offer many options for customers to tailor the truck to their lifestyles while continuing to encourage them to forge new paths with zero emissions.”
Like the Hummer EV, the Hummer EV SUV will be powered by the Ultium platform and will launch with an exclusive Edition 1 variant which allows customers to optimize between driving range or maximum off-road capability. Edition 1 will also come standard with 22-inch premium wheels, assist steps, and floor liners.
If you are looking for enhanced performance on the trail, GMC’s Extreme Off-Road package provides 18-inch wheels and 35-inch-OD MT tires, underbody armor and rock sliders, a front eLocker and virtual rear lockers, heavy-duty ball-spline half-shafts, UltraVision with underbody camera views, and more.
Like the initial Hummer EV, the Hummer EV SUV will include CrabWalk, Extract Mode, and more. The SUV features a new rear design with a mounted full-size spare tire and a similar five-passenger layout (from the pickup) including a large and useful rear cargo area.
