How Does a $42,000 Rebate on a New GMC Hummer EV Sound?

carbon_ape@reddit

Damn. Maverick owners are passing on it 💀

[-]

bugme143@reddit

I have a Maverick for work with one of those bed cover things.

It's got fuck-all space when you're juggling machine parts in cardboard boxes. I told my boss I'd rather have a pedo-van.

[-]

carbon_ape@reddit

What’s funny is my 5’ Tacoma bed is actually 4.5’ with the tonneau cover.

I’ll say it is annoying but it’s like 4-5% annoying. 4.5’ is still good enough to do majority of stuff. Move a mattress, wood chips, relocate a groundhog, get interlock etc.

A 6’ bed is nice but you can still do a lot with a 4.5’ bed.

[-]

withoutapaddle@reddit

Only 6" shorter than the Hummer EV's bed.

[-]

They’re fucking ENORMOUS 😂 my tundra looks like a maverick next to one. I think all of the EV trucks except the Rivian by a margin are douchey as fuck and I’d be caught dead in something like them. An EV taco, maverick, Colorado, etc are all what people want more

[-]

aprtur@reddit

Can confirm, I have a neighbor who has one of these, as well as a Taycan and Range Rover all here in my apartment building. It makes his Range Rover look tiny, and my GR Corolla look like a matchbox car. Probably most absurd is that it touches the lines of the parking space on both sides...too freaking big for this apartment complex.

[-]

velociraptorfarmer@reddit

Prioritizing having a Taycan or a Hummer EV when you're renting an apartment is pretty damn telling...

[-]

aprtur@reddit

Nah, man is actually pretty cool - he has multiple properties and uses his apartment here as a more convenient location for work. Traffic sucks here, and his other properties are on the shore and in Florida, so he's typically moving them around with the seasons. TLDR - he's a lot more wealthy than me, has multiple properties to store them at, and is actually extremely nice...I have no beef, it's just an interesting counter to my ancient Mazda and new Corolla 😂.

[-]

benmarvin@reddit

Nah, you still got a pay like $99k for the truck that weighs as much at 4 Miatas.

[-]

fordprefect294@reddit

I'd rather buy 4 different miatas!

[-]

_name_of_the_user_@reddit

Strangely enough, not everyone wants the biggest vehicle possible. There is nothing appealing about the hummer ev imo.

[-]

carbon_ape@reddit

I got a Tacoma trd pro worth more than majority of Tundras. I get it. But the hummer is a pretty impressive vehicle. If somebody offered me it, I’d take it in a heart beat. Sub 3 0-60, EV, nice interior, cool features.

Would I pay 100k for one? Nah. But still a fun kind of oxymoron kind of truck.

[-]

fordprefect294@reddit

I'd pass on a free Hummer

[-]

_name_of_the_user_@reddit

Well, I might try to sell it if someone gave it to me. But I'd rather drive my almost decade old golf than the monstrosity that is a hummer.

[-]

bearfan15@reddit

Sounds like what it should have cost to begin with.

[-]

poo_poo_platter83@reddit

Lmao. I REALLY like the outside of the hummer and the way it looks. But for the size (Which is what i was looking for) The interior space is non-existent.

This is coming from someone who REALLY wanted to buy it. But problem is im a new dad with a 2yo and a 1yo.

When i went to purchase it and test drive it. I realized that there was no space for anything useful. FWIW i ended up buying a lexus LX 570. Which dimension wise is smaller but interior wise is soo much more space.

I say all of that to say. Yes it was 100% overprice. But there are people like me that would have purchased it anyway because its a ridiculous looking electric hummer.

But the actual usefuleness of it as a vehicle just wasnt there. The interior capacity. Is along the lines of a BMW X5

[-]

Responsible-Meringue@reddit

As a dad of 2.... The Hyundai ioniq 5 is the roomiest room I'd need. Idk why everyone wants mega SUVs. I'd just get a van if I needed a 3rd row. But w/e your life, your $.

[-]

stcv3@reddit

I bought ioniq 5 as a secondary car and realized it's just as sufficient even as a main vehicle with 2 kids as well. Unless you have 3+ kids and/or a dog, everything larger is pretty much unnecessary.

[-]

BD03@reddit

Is a Ioniq 5 an SUV? I think I still have the old "Ford Explorer" definition of an SUV stick in my mind.

[-]

moocowsia@reddit

It's basically a fat hatch. They don't like marketing it as such. Same goes with almost all of the smaller EVs. They're a little taller because the skateboard platforms, but they're still hatch/wagons unless they actually have ground clearance, which most of them don't.

[-]

hutacars@reddit

It’s pretty huge. Driving it felt more like driving a Tucson than an Accent.

[-]

RangeRoverHSE@reddit

Not in the same way like an old body-on-frame thing like the Explorer was but it's deceptively big. It's an inch longer and wider than the new RAV4 but it does sit ~3 inches lower. I think it's officially considered a compact crossover SUV but it definitely blurs the lines more than most others already do.

[-]

xWOBBx@reddit

Mega SUV obsession always boggles my mind. Why do mostly north Americans have this made up problem of needing a big suv for kids or elderly people when for the rest of the world historically sedans have been perfectly fine?

[-]

Lezzles@reddit

My buddy the other day asked me how I still get by with only a "single family car" (???) because I drive a sedan. I have a single 3-year old child. America is beyond parody when it comes to our car culture.

[-]

MembershipNo2077@reddit

My parents had a 90's Pontiac Grand Am that we took on road trips with a three children. It was a tight fit but we did it. People needing three rows for one child is wild.

[-]

moocowsia@reddit

Car seats being huge is a big part of it, but lots of people are just pain dumb, and think they need way more than they do.

[-]

xWOBBx@reddit

Unfortunately that same mentality is in Canada too. I hear it's getting common in Europe as well. I drove across Canada in my 86. It was fucking awesome with plenty of space.

[-]

OhHelloPlease@reddit

At least we still haven't completely given up on the minivan up in Canada.

[-]

HerefortheTuna@reddit

Love my 86. But idk if it could be my only car

[-]

xWOBBx@reddit

That's fair! I don't think everyone should own cars this small. But I'm just a single fella who can easily do it. I know I'm the exception there.

[-]

PGleo86@reddit

Even as someone single who can easily do it, only having a small coupe is still pretty impractical/annoying in certain situations. I moved across town this June with the SVX as my only car and for anything bigger than one of those Sterilite 18 gallon bins (these for reference) it really needed to go in the Uhaul or in one of my friends'/family's crossovers (and even those tubs were unwieldy, only fit in the back seats, not the trunk, and getting them in through the doors around the seat pulled forward just barely worked).

Granted, that's an isolated issue, and 99% of the time it's totally workable, but WOW was that one a wake up call for the times it isn't.

[-]

HerefortheTuna@reddit

I mean it is a phenomenal car- I’ve owned both gens.

I almost did buy a brand new 86 in 2017 (woulda traded in the Saab 9-2X I had). But I opted to buy a used 2013 FR-S as a second car and keep the saabaru as a beater- now that I’m in my mid 30s and own a house and have a family and all that it wouldn’t be ideal for sure

[-]

Bassracerx@reddit

How many families does your buddy have??

[-]

OptimalFunction@reddit

It makes sense if you look at this way: a lot of douchebags started to buy large vehicles for vanity, caused horrific car crashes against sedans and folks were left impressionable. Now, American want big SUVs because they want to be the ones walking away in a car crash. They don’t care if the other family in the sedan they hit is alive. It’s utter selfishness.

[-]

thatguyfromnickelbac@reddit

Jesus christ, we fucking tow things.

[-]

leedle1234@reddit

In europe they tow campers with regular sedans and hatchbacks. Hell I just recently towed a uhaul trailer with a motorcycle 300 miles in mine, kept it in 5th and did a comfortable ~62mph, handled it just fine based on what the oil temp said. Obviously wouldn't want to do it all the time but the average american consumer isn't towing period, let alone occasionally.

[-]

thatguyfromnickelbac@reddit

I towed a motorcycle from delaware to pittsburgh with my subaru forester a few years back, probably 325 miles. Congrats? I live in a rural area, we tow all the time. Towing a motorcycle in a golf isn't anything to write home about. We don't all live in cities.

[-]

leedle1234@reddit

You seemingly agree with the point I made. A normal car handled some light towing fine for you too. Only a fraction of a percent of consumers (like yourself I guess) truly need big SUVs for constant regular towing and most would be fine towing with normal cars when they happen to need to.

[-]

thatguyfromnickelbac@reddit

Sure, but i'm not the fun police telling people what they should or shouldn't drive. I dont just waste my money on fuel driving around running errands in my GX470, I use my tacoma or more commonly my M roadster for that.

[-]

thatguyfromnickelbac@reddit

Heck yeah, wish my tow rig was a stick, theres a lot more control when you row your own gears. we go a little faster here, under 75 and i'm getting run off the road.

[-]

SEND_ME_FAKE_NEWS@reddit

You're the exception, not the rule.

[-]

thatguyfromnickelbac@reddit

I'm your average rural american.

[-]

SEND_ME_FAKE_NEWS@reddit

In terms of population density, there are a lot more urban Americans than rural, and a lot of them own trucks.

[-]

velociraptorfarmer@reddit

If this is based off that "80% of Americans live in urban areas" statistic, it's horribly flawed.

It counts any "town" of more than a few hundred people as an urban area.

If you actually go down the list of largest urban areas and add them up, only 34% of Americans live in an urban area larger than 1 million people. Considering the first city that doesn't make that cut is Oklahoma City, I'd say it's appropriate.

[-]

equityorasset@reddit

the anti truck hate is so insane, it's like a weird jealously thing i think

[-]

PaulTheMerc@reddit

I like trucks. I've been drooling over the maverick. But if there's an agressive asshole on my ass, its a ram truck 8/10 times.

Beyond that, parking even an suv like the cr-v next to an f150 makes you realize you're probably going to die in a crash between the two.

[-]

patx35@reddit

r/cars is the place to jerk off driving a $40k-80k sports car as a groceries hauler.

[-]

HerefortheTuna@reddit

I bought my first SUV to actually go off-roading and camping and I do (has a tent on it). But driving around in a 35 year old truck with no airbags got old so I got the 2014 to daily. Do I need a 4Runner? No, but the dogs were gonna be pissed if they lost their cool tailgate window.

I also would rather buy a car that I know I’ll get 250k out versus roll the dice.

Compared to my older one the newer one is yuuuge and the newest 2025 model got even bigger.

There are no smaller than midsize 4 door SUVs for sale. And No crossovers don’t count

[-]

thatguyfromnickelbac@reddit

[-]

thatguyfromnickelbac@reddit

People in downtown NYC don't even own cars. I'm just a normal American. We have shit to tow!

[-]

xWOBBx@reddit

I know but I think the conversation is about people NOT like you. Most SUV and large pick up owners aren't doing truck things just things like putting a couple kids and groceries in it. Things a sedan or hatch does the same if not better.

The conversation is about if little Timmy and Sarah need an unarmored vehicle fit for world leaders to go to dance practice while causing pedestrian casualties at an insane rate. Not loading your skid loader or whatever the fuck.

[-]

thatguyfromnickelbac@reddit

IDK man, people needing trucks is just a normal way of life where i live. It's the norm. Not having a truck is a pain in the ass. Why do you care what other people drive?

[-]

107percent@reddit

1 in 20 dutch households own a caravan, but plenty of them get by just fine with station wagons or sedans. Sure, if you need to tow heavy equipment regularly your life will suck in an Accord, but I refuse to believe that that's the case for 99% of American city dwellers.

[-]

thatguyfromnickelbac@reddit

Cool, the Netherlands is a mostly flat country, get back to me when you're towing a 36ft trailer in the mountains going 70+ mph surrounded by 80k lb semis. I can tow way above my rated weight going 40mph on level ground. Why are you so invested in what we drive? I don't care what 2 liter diesel citroen or renault you drive.

[-]

In the last couple years. I'm talking about the trend overall since ~2000 to now, what I would consider the popularity of SUVs.

spacemannspliff@reddit

Charger is a coupe and the Malibu doesn't exist anymore. The Lucid and Karma I'm unsure count as real mass-market vehicles but I guess. So that's a total of three nameplates with \~5 different cars, and only the Caddies are ICE. That's a pretty solidly dead segment.

The only new american made sedans in the US are Tesla and Cadillac. Plenty of sedans on the market still.

I think midsize crossovers probably make a lot of sense for most families since they give extra space while not taking up a substantially larger footprint. They're also not hugely heavier, lifted, or with flat faces like the pedestrian-eating super SUVs that they're talking about

[-]

Meh I kind of get it. Giant pickups or SUVs are all over US roads and I know for a fact my wife feels way more comfortable seated higher for visibility reasons.

I don't fit in sedans, but it's because even with the seat all the way down, my head is in the roof.

Miata, Camry, Corolla, don't fit in any of them.

[-]

Bassracerx@reddit

Well that and the lack of “full size” non luxury sedans. In the 50s through the 70s getting a bigger sedan diddnt cost that much more money you did not have to get saddled with leather and a ton of luxury features. Then in the 80s cars starter to shrink to meet fuel economy and emissions regulations. Size became a premium feature. Then in the early 2000s automakers figured out that “light trucks” were basically exempt from cafe rules and were graded differently. Now it was a race to make everything possible a “light truck” So automakers started giving “compact” suvs more room than midsize sedans.

Consumers quickly fell into the automakers trap. Automakers were making much more profit per vehicle on suvs and consumers were happy to pay extra money for the extra space.

[-]

HerefortheTuna@reddit

That is true. Idk how people got into cars back in the 90s- actually I do! They weren’t all loads.

[-]

Gunmetal_61@reddit

So many savings beyond just cars come from being a normal weight.

[-]

xWOBBx@reddit

That may actually be the best argument lol. I still disagree with them fundamentally and it's true that this fad was pushed on us by oil companies and car manufacturers in-order to burn more fuel and sell more expensive vehicles.

[-]

GoblinEngineer@reddit

Americans are getting chubbier and more sedentary. Things like putting a child into a car seat are harder now because they're less physically fit. People are also having children later too, so they'll be doing these things at an older age

[-]

hutacars@reddit

In Japan they throw the entire family in a kei car (if the kids aren’t just taking the train by themselves). In India they cart families of 4 around on a single motorbike. The American obsession with enormous SUVs and trucks is borderline obscene compared to what is actually required to move a family around.

[-]

frohstr@reddit

Most of the EU caps the general driving license at 7700 lbs (3.5 tons) - that’s maximum allowed weight fully loaded for that car according to type rating. A Hummer EV would require a CDL

smokinbbq@reddit

You couldn't pay me to take an EV Hummer. Such a POS waste of batteries. What's the math on it? Something like 9 hybrids could be made with those batteries, or 5 full EVs? All for a useless vehicle, which is just obscene in every aspect. Too heavy that it shouldn't be allowed on our roads without a commercial license and taxes.

How are you liking the 570 with 2 kids? Have a GX460 and another kid on the way. Wife drives an IS and will be upgrading her to a larger SUV. Would love to get a LX but they don’t seem significantly larger inside than the GX. I’m leaning toward a Sequoia at this point. We do lots of road trips and the GX has seemed cramped at times with just 1 kid.

[-]

SimpleOkie@reddit

The 570, you have to be careful on year. The globe valves and AHC system, is deadnuts simple and reliable, but when its failing, its the opposite of cheap. I sold my 15 that had 200K mi on it; was looking at 15K in parts alone - radiator, globe and AHC overhaul, bushings, Transfer case.

I have a GX460, and wife has one too. Interior space is about same, and actually easier for when Im loading some cargo.

I like the sequoia, but not the hybrid. Im open and looking at a LX600 specifially because of that. Still super grump that they ditched V8 engines.

[-]

LiquidSean@reddit

The Sequoia is nice, but the rear cargo setup is kind of a disaster lol

[-]

poo_poo_platter83@reddit

So the new sequoia is lx600 size. We personally do are packing the kids and dog up to hit the beach every weekend in the summer and load up for camping and mountains during the winter.

I will say it can still get a little tight. But we live in Philadelphia so we didn't want to go as big as a Escalade. Also the way the third row seats fold it takes away rear space. With that said it is miles more room in the rear than the gx.

Now my wife drives a 2024 gmc acadia denali. Which has more room and feels roomier than the lx570. (Buick enclave, Chevy Traverse and the Cadillac vistiq are the same car). If you don't want the V8 and extra off-road capabilities of the lx. Those are the biggest suvs you can get before you go to the real big boys like the Escalade and sequoia

Kids aren’t that big, but strollers, diaper bags, etc take up a lot of cargo space. I think most small families would be fine with a small SUV, but I do understand the appeal of wanting more room

[-]

the_lamou@reddit

but strollers, diaper bags, etc take up a lot of cargo space.

Not really, no. A collapsible stroller will maybe take two cubic feet, three at the high end. A diaper bag might do another two cubic feet, if it's on the larger size.

Or put it another way, I can fit everything I need to go cold-weather glamping for a week with two people into the trunk of a Toyota Camry and still have room left over. And that's including food in coolers. A family of three or four shouldn't need more stuff to go to the grocery store.

[-]

cbf1232@reddit

Unless you pick carefully, modern rear-facing baby seats can take up a lot of space, both front-to-back and side-to-side. Then people add in massive two-kid jogging strollers and still want to be able to do a Costco run, or take a few friends to the beach with floaty toys and lawn chairs and stuff.

On the other hand, I raised two kids with a Toyota Matrix--we shopped carefully for seats and strollers that were compact. But we did do camping trips with gear packed under and beside the rear-facing car seats...

[-]

cat_prophecy@reddit

I drive a Volvo S60. It's not super-roomy when you have two adults and two kids, but it gets the job done.

Why the hell do you need a full-size 3 row suv? Absolutely no need for LX for 2 adults & 2 children. Saying the hummer didn't have enough interior space for that is just ridiculously stupid.

I've fit 5 adults in my CX-5 for multiple road trips with no issue. My neighbours have twins in car seats & a toddler in a booster seat, & have no issue in their RAV4.

Perhaps he plans on driving it for the next 20 years and passing it down to one of the kids when they need a car after college? It's probably one of the most reliable vehicles made in the last decade after all. Hell, it'll probably go 400k if the salt doesn't get it.

We're riding on beaches and through muddy mountain roads during the weekends. "Camping, Beach, Mountain Cabins ETC" The offroad capabilities are key. This is why something like an escalade or minivan doesnt work. The LX570 is a VERY capable offroader allowing me to raise and lower it and has been GREAT at even towing toys on the beach

We're riding on beaches and through muddy mountain roads during the weekends. "Camping, Beach, Mountain Cabins ETC"

Things that any CUV with good tires can handle without breaking a sweat.

This is why something like an escalade or minivan doesnt work.

They would handle the mud & sand with no issue. Escalade & minivans come in AWD. Just get decent tires.

LX570 is a VERY capable offroader allowing me to raise and lower it.

Any AWD CUV will handle the mud & sand you are going through, & have enough ground clearance. You aren't rock climbing. You are soft-roading. All you need is AWD & tires.

has been GREAT at even towing toys on the beach

You don't need a full size BOF SUV to tow. "Toys" will not max out the 7,000 pound towing limit. A pilot tows 5,000 pounds & that is more than enough for toys. 5,000 pounds is 10-12 ATVs for fucks sake.

we need the extra interior space since we're lugging 2 kids and a dog out of the city

A CUV will handle this. A mid-size crossover will handle this.

None of the things you listed justify you "needing" this SUV. They all justify you wanting this SUV but it's much more than what you need. There's nothing wrong with that if you can afford it, but stop trying to make it seem like a full-size BOF SUV was your only option. There were many other reasonable options that would have worked.

[-]

thatguyfromnickelbac@reddit

You're seriously comparing one of the GOAT Suvs to an awd CUV?

I've got an old tacoma that'll tow 5k on paper, but i wouldn't put more than 3500# on it. Same with my GX470, she'll tow 6500#, but the max I'd ever put back there is probably 5K. You've got to stop the thing, and i doubt there are any CUV's out there with built in brake controllers. What about running through hill country in the appalachian range, is your transmission up to that task? Just because "you can" doesn't mean you should. Towing serious weight is serious shit, and it is stressful if you're not in the right vehicle.

[-]

SavageryRox@reddit

They said they are towing toys. Toys don't even get close to 5,000 pounds. Dirt bikes are 200-300 pounds. ATVs are 400-500 pounds. Jet ski is 600-900 pounds. Hell, even a pontoon boat is like 4,000 pounds.

[-]

thatguyfromnickelbac@reddit

What do you know about tongue weight and payload capacity?

[-]

SavageryRox@reddit

you aren't maxing either of them on something like a pilot compared to a GX, not when you're towing an ATV or motorcycle or jet ski.

[-]

thatguyfromnickelbac@reddit

When your half ton quad cab truck has a max payload of 1500lbs and your trailer has a tongue weight of 300lbs, you have 1200lbs of people/gear that you can tow. I can tell that you're out of your realm of knowledge here, so I'm really not trying to be a dick, but a honda pilot is not the answer you think it is here. Payload is a much larger factor in the real world than max towing capacity. I tow 3500# of skis regularly, and it's a full blown workout in the hills with the GX. I wouldn't imagine doing it with my tacoma. Not a chance. I've got a CDL A license and regularly tow serious weight.

[-]

thatguyfromnickelbac@reddit

How much does a trailer weigh?

[-]

SavageryRox@reddit

An ATV / bike trailer for toys is like 750 pounds.

[-]

Titan0917@reddit

Your post just reeks of smug ignorance. You make a whole lot of claims about things you’re clearly wrong about.

[-]

thatguyfromnickelbac@reddit

Right? They know nothing about towing and make a whole lot of assumptions about a person's wants. A guy who buys an LX570 is NOT cross shopping a fucking mid size crossover. It's more likely he has a 997.1 in the 3rd bay of his garage, he's not buying a damn Rav4. This guy worked hard and made it, he does his research and buys for the long term.

_name_of_the_user_@reddit

Exactly. If it was a $1000 I'd look up if it can do vehicle to grid charging. If it can I'd build a parking spot for it behind my garage - so my neighbours wouldn't be forced to see it - and turn it into a home battery on blocks. Aside from the giant battery this glorified farm equipment has zero appeal to me.

At that price I could genuinely be interested. It would at least be on the truck EV roster for to research, sit in, test drive and the proper consideration given.

I wouldn't fool with any electric truck... I'd be into a cheap EV if the price was right though.

Right EV pickup isn’t my first choice either. But if I had to objectively research and buy one. I’m liking the fiat 500EV, great commuter car that can be an efficient and cheap appliance Point A to B car.

[-]

2Drogdar2Furious@reddit

I've looked at the Prius Prime... they're not that slow anymore and I actually like the styling. They get about 40 miles of EV range.

I'm more likely to get one of those than an EV really...

[-]

Spicywolff@reddit

I’m so happy they finally scraped the ugly and tree higher look off. Now it’s quite stylish and easy on the eyes.

A PHEV is a good option for many. Especially short range use like me.

[-]

Nervous-Tour-884@reddit

42k off a grossly overprice specialty trim. Reminds me a bit of Subaru and Nissan where they would come out with 18 million special trims of the WRX, STI, and GT-R that would add 5 horsepower and some visual touches, then jack the price up a laughable amount. Dodge too for that matter, how many Hellcat Demon 170 final edition widebody blah blah models has there been already? Can't begrudge em too much really, the shit works.

[-]

DiscoLives4ever@reddit

The Omega was GM trying to get a piece of the inflated vehicle prices a few years ago. The first edition Hummers were going for 50-100% over MSRP, but GM had already sold a bunch of reservations at that price so they introduced the Omega as a way to grab some of that market because demand appeared to indicate they were missing out on a huge chunk of change.

These rebates are just bringing them back down to what they would have cost to configure anyway, plus a special paint job

[-]

SnootDoctor@reddit

These Hummer EV’s are genuinely evil, given the way the weight of them (12,000lbs+) will tear up the roads. I know a Hummer never was an environmentally friendly vehicle to begin with, but come on. It does a little crab walk for a Super Bowl commercial, and everyone lost their minds.

Every time I see a person driving one, I instantly think less of them and their decision making.

[-]

Sixteen-Cylinders@reddit (OP)

Yes they weigh a lot but no clue where you got 12,000lbs. The heaviest variant is 9,600lbs.

When these first launched the prices were incredible. The first one my local GM dealer got was priced at $325K.

[-]

ahorrribledrummer@reddit

I think I've seen maybe 4-5 in the wild this year. Nobody wants them. People looking to spend this money on an EV seemingly don't want a macho rig. If they want a $100k+ EV they're going for a Porsche/Benz/Bimmer. If they want a $100k+ macho truck they go for an Escalade.

[-]

peakdecline@reddit

The last one I saw was a couple months ago. It was on some truly ridiculous wheels and rubber band tires and was in the maximum lift height for the air suspension. It was really a sight to behold.

[-]

niftyjack@reddit

I see them around Chicago sometimes, they're too wide to fit in our parallel parking lanes and take up space in the bike lane. Awful.

[-]

SnootDoctor@reddit

Yep. Seeing a Hummer EV in the wild is right there next to “vitriol” in the dictionary.

[-]

stml@reddit

It’s straight up too big. The Escalade is already large and a pushing it in size. The Hummer is even wider than the F250.

[-]

peakdecline@reddit

The Hummer EV, SUV or truck, is the same width as an F-150 Raptor. And both versions are substantially shorter (232.6" vs 216.8" Hummer truck). The Ram TRX/RHO is actually a bit wider even and a bit longer than the Raptor.

Very large? Oh yeah. But nothing surprising within the space its competing.

[-]

stml@reddit

I don't think it's competing with the Raptor though.

It's competing for the big EV cruiser market which is Rivian, Model X, luxury SUVs, etc AKA, the influencer crowd in Los Angeles.

I really don't think these are distinctly different markets. Just as a ton of Raptors are sold to look cool on pavement.

Design wise, It really does look like the child who inherited all the bad quality's from a union of the Chevy Avalanche and the Santa Cruz. And its just the exterior. Interior design is sharp and rather lovely.

Goes to show how outrageously overpriced vehicles are. Also v important to give rich people discounts!

ITT: people not realizing this is for a 2 model year old car and would lease incredibly well and the incentive does not apply to 2026 hummers

I got 30k off of my 24 omega 3x suv almost a year ago.

Neat. I still can't afford one and an EV still doesn't work for me.

Since we're telling people what we're not in the market for, I want you all to know that I'm not in the market for a diesel truck. Or a Lear Jet.

Uglier than the cyber truck imo. Would take the rivian over both, and I don't find the pickup rivian attractive. (The suv looks good though)

Considering I had to jump start a friend's new Hummer EV, with my diesel truck, I'll pass. The small 12v battery in the front of the truck was at 8v because of some crazy parasitic drain and it didn't have enough power to kick on the big batteries to actually drive.

They tried jumping it with a small truck and small cables but the drain was higher than what amperage they could get into the battery. We finally got enough juice into it with some big cables and the larger alternator on my truck. He was able to finally put it in drive mode and get it to the dealership fifteen minutes away.

Sounds like the exact amount by which GM overestimated the value of brand equity in the "Hummer" badge.

Selling overweight EVs to people who reveled in burning cheap gasoline in the early 2000s? Great idea.
