There are two all-electric pickups available now, with more to come. But until those others arrive, we can put the two we have up against each other in a drag race. That's what the Throttle House YouTube channel did, lining up the new GMC Hummer EV against the Rivian R1T. The channel also included a Tesla Model X in one race to serve as a benchmark of sorts.
The Hummer EV is way more powerful than the Rivian, but it's also way heavier. The GMC tips the scales at 9,046 pounds (4,103 kilograms). The Rivian is not "light," but it is 1,900 lbs (861 kg) lighter than the Hummer, weighing in at 7,148 lbs (3,242 kg). The Rivian will need the advantage because it's down on power. The Rivian delivers 835 horsepower (622 kilowatts) and 908 pound-feet (1,231 Newton-meters) of torque, while the Hummer pumps out 1,000 hp (745 kW) and 1,200 lb-ft (1,626 Nm) of torque.
