25 HUMMER EV REVIEW
BUILT FOR OFF-ROAD
Although we were unable to drive this car as part of our review, GMC has detailed specific attributes of the Hummer EV that make it perfect for off-roading.
The vehicles trademarked ‘CrabWalk’ setting utilizes the Hummer’s 4-Wheel steer (its rear wheels can turn up to ten degrees in either direction) to drive diagonally at low speeds, helping it traverse tight trails “with a capability that no other competitive pickup will match,” according to GMC.
The ‘Extract’ mode, available in the SUV spec, also activates the Hummer’s Adaptive Air Ride suspension to raise approximately 6” to ease through (and over) touch obstacles, from fording water to large boulders.
The Hummer’s UltraVision technology – with up to eighteen cameras on the pickup and seventeen on the SUV – include a waterproof underbody forward-and-rear facing cameras for real-time views of the terrain to help you pick the best line along the trail. A washer function and replaceable lens protectors help you see clearly whilst navigating your way through any environment.
Offering the latest version of Super Cruise, the Hummer EV with driver-assistance technology for hands-free driving and automatic lane change works on 200,00 compatible roads, and all Hummer EVs come with a threeyear subscription to this tech.

When the Hummer lands in the UK, it costs substantially more with international shipping, VAT duty, local registration fees, and vehicle conformity testing taken into account. So, the Edition 1 model costs around £320k onthe-road (subject to the US price and current exchange rates). Within the price the Sutton team handles the entire process from end-to-end providing a manufacturer-style experience for customers. The Sutton team also offers a two-year / 50,000-mile warranty with each Hummer EV.
