GMC
We Are Professional Grade
GMC is a division of General Motors specializing in trucks, SUVs, and commercial vehicles. Founded in 1911, it has built a reputation for rugged capability and premium Denali trims. In 2020, GMC revived the Hummer name as an all-electric super-truck, the Hummer EV, showcasing extreme off-road performance and innovative features like CrabWalk and an 800‑volt electrical architecture.
EV milestones
- +Unmatched off‑road capability with adjustable air suspension and four‑wheel steering.
- +Massive power and torque for a vehicle of its size.
- +Long driving range thanks to the 200 kWh battery pack.
- +Innovative features like CrabWalk and Extract Mode.
- –Extremely heavy, which impacts on‑road handling and tyre wear.
- –Very expensive, both in purchase price and electricity consumption.
- –Not officially sold or supported in Europe, complicating maintenance and warranty.
- –Large footprint makes it difficult to manoeuvre and park in tight spaces.
The Hummer EV uses a massive Ultium battery pack with a gross capacity of around 200 kWh, enabling up to 300+ miles of range. Its 800‑volt system supports 350 kW DC fast charging, while the double‑stack cell modules provide structural rigidity. All variants offer vehicle‑to‑load (V2L) capability for powering external devices.
The GMC Hummer EV SUV is a halo vehicle that pushes the boundaries of electric powertrains and off‑road capability. It’s a technological tour de force, but its immense size, cost, and lack of official European presence make it a novelty rather than a practical choice for most buyers in the EU.
