My thoughts are you should learn how to post a link.

Another 100k electric car I couldn't careless about.
That said, GM did the first smart thing in a long time by using hummer as a high end EV brand. I said in 08 they should have turned the entire hummer lineup into diesels and hybrids, but the overseers of public funding for gm at the time wanted it dead at any cost.

It's not going to be out for a while so it's going to give other manufactures time to catch up and incorporate some of the innovative into current or next year models.
The removable tops and storing them under the hood is cool. Crab walk, 1000+ HP, man I could go on and on.

I saw the first Hummer commercial last night and didn't think it was bad looking. Certainly better looking than that Telsa truck IMO.

Yeah, I have to admit, they've done a good job with it. Their pricing is nuts, but I guess pricing for everything is now.
It's the best looking domestic EV. Not saying much though. Mach E would look better if they hadn't tried to force mustang cues in and just built it as a sporty crossover.
Honestly, I think I could see this hummer EV doing really well. Hummers were super popular when introduced, this sort of feels like it could do the same if it's a 3 row suv that's useful for famines. I don't see the point in the stupid fast acceleration, I think they should focus more on battery life and range, and limit the acceleration to focus on the weak point. People won't not buy this if it did 0 to 60 in 5 or 6 seconds.. They will not buy it if they can't take it for a long road trip, or tow their boat behind it to the lake 150 miles away and back. And no, you can't expect boat ramps to have charging stations for you. Most don't even have bathrooms.
That said, for an around town mall crawler, this will do well, and I expect it to sell really well.

Who is going to repair this? Is this going to China for repair? Give me a break GM build fewer less vehicles and build them to last and if you can not do that build quality! I guess you forgot the Fisher name plate stood for! These model changes every month are just placing you closer to going out of business. This vehicle does not attract the masses!
