GM is to unveil its new GMC HUMMER EV SUV on April 3, 2021, at 5 p.m. EDT during the NCAA Final Four basketball tournament in the U.S. Reservations will open for customers on that same date.
Meanwhile it’s been testing the Hummer EV in sub-zero conditions in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. The GM team put the all-electric super-truck through its paces in sub-zero temperatures on various slippery surfaces, including snow and ice.
Key tests include integrating its all-wheel drive torque distribution with the traction control system, as well as calibrating and testing the electronic stability control system.
The HUMMER EV will be a fully electric addition to the company’s portfolio powered by General Motors’ new Ultium battery system. The HUMMER EV Edition One will offer a three-motor e4WD propulsion system with GM-estimated best-in-class 1,000 horsepower and a GM-estimated 11,500 lb-ft of torque.
With 800-volt DC fast charging capability, the GMC HUMMER EV is expected to have industry-best charging capability at any of the new 350-kilowatt high output public DC fast charging stations — the fastest method supported by current charging standards.
The GMC HUMMER EV will begin production debut this autumn.
