According to SlashGear’s review of the GMC Hummer EV SUV, it is described as a “cartoon off-roader” that is intentionally playful and oversized, while still being a capable SUV that grabs attention like its predecessor. Although it doesn’t match the power of the EV Hummer pickup, which generates 1,000 horsepower with its “Watts to Freedom” mode activated, the SUV still impresses with 830 emissions-free horsepower, placing it as the fourth most powerful SUV available.

The Hummer EV SUV’s size might be imposing, but its four-wheel steering surprisingly enhances maneuverability compared to other SUVs. Additionally, its Super Cruise semi-autonomous driving system makes highway driving less burdensome. When the road ends, the Hummer demonstrates its expected capabilities on rough terrain, aided by the CrabWalk feature carried over from the pickup, which assists in navigating tight spaces. Although it may seem contradictory, the Hummer EV SUV is as unique as anticipated. While it is undoubtedly a niche vehicle, there are numerous buyers who consider its starting price of $80,395 well justified. Currently, reservations for the SUV are temporarily on hold as GMC addresses existing order backlogs.
