GMC Hummer EV SUV

AutoEdgeView says CrabWalk is a four-wheel steering feature on the 2026 GMC Hummer EV that turns the rear wheels up to 10 degrees in the same direction as the front wheels, letting the truck move diagonally like a crab to navigate tight trails, slide around obstacles, and reduce its turning radius, and that the Hummer EV is larger, heavier, and has more range on paper (329 miles) than the Rivian R1T Max (about 328 miles), while offering CrabWalk plus Extract Mode. Car and Driver says GMC claims the Hummer EV pickup will add 100 miles of range in just 10 minutes, though Car and Driver needed about twice as long, and calls the truck's physics-defying acceleration, ample electric range, and roomy bed enough to humble electric-truck doubters. AutoEdgeView separately says the Rivian R1T Quad-Motor matches or exceeds the Hummer's 1,000-plus horsepower in a package that's 2,000 pounds lighter, with better towing and comparable range, and that as-tested pricing on a well-equipped 3X Pickup with the Extreme Off-Road package can push past $140,000 after destination and options.

Background and safety record

What public sources say about the GMC Hummer EV SUV.

The GMC Hummer EV (badged as HEV) is a line of battery electric heavy-duty vehicles produced by General Motors since 2021, and sold under the GMC mark. The Hummer EV is offered in two variants: a pickup truck and a sport utility vehicle (SUV), unveiled in October 2020 and April 2021 respectively. Weighing roughly 10,000 pounds (4,500 kg), the Hummer EV is among the heaviest consumer automobiles currently sold in the United States.

Production
The Hummer EV is produced at GM's Detroit/Hamtramck Assembly (also referred to as Factory Zero) plant in Michigan. Production of the Hummer EV Truck commenced on November 17, 2021, while the Hummer EV SUV started production on January 30, 2023. In October 2020, GM invested $2.2 billion in the plant for the production of these electric vehicles.
Marketing
On January 30, 2020, GM released three advertisements for the Hummer EV, followed by Super Bowl LIV commercials on February 2, 2020, with LeBron James as the spokesperson.
Sales
The GMC Hummer EV is over twice the weight of an average American car. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety performed checks to ensure their equipment could handle its mass before crash testing it, since it weighs around 3,500 pounds (1,600 kg) more than any vehicle previously tested.
