Depending on who you ask, the GMC Hummer EV is either awful or awesome. It’s a brute that’s cheap as hell inside and a pain in the ass to drive 95 percent of the time. But it’s also fully electric, rips to 60 in 3.5 seconds, can ford 2.5 feet of water, and has the best hands-free highway driving system on sale today. And yet, GMC has 90,000 reservations for this expensive piece of eco-bro virtue signaling. Go figure.
Following the arrival of the Hummer EV pickup last year, GMC now offers the Hummer EV SUV, and it’s arguably the better buy of the two. The sport-ute is a little less expensive, starting at $105,595 including $1,595 for destination, though that’s of course for the fully loaded Edition 1 trim, which is the only one available right now. GMC promises that lower-content, less-powerful versions of both the Hummer EV Pickup and SUV are coming soon, culminating with a base version that’s expected to arrive in Spring 2024 with a starting price around $80,000.
