The 2022 GMC HUMMER EV won't be available to purchase until next year however one lucky person recently purchased the very first edition at a charity auction for $2.5million..
The GMC Hummer EV Edition 1 VIN 001 is the world's first all-electric supertruck engineered to forge new paths with zero emissions. It is fully electric, driven by next-generation EV propulsion technology that enables unprecedented off-road capability, extraordinary on-road performance and an immersive driving experience designed to put drivers at the center of every moment.
Whilst the retail asking price for a GMC Hummer EV is set to start from $112,595 the lucky owner of the Edition 1VIN certainly dug deep at the charity auction hosted by Barratt Jackson with all proceeds going to the Stephen Siller Tunnel to Towers Foundation, a charity that helps build homes for the families of injured first responders and military personnel.
The Hummer EV's head-turning looks and unmistakable stance are like nothing else on the road. Standard features include a three-motor e4WD propulsion system with GM-estimated best-in-class 1,000hp and GM-estimated 11,500 ft/lbs of torque, segment-exclusive 4-wheel steer with CrabWalk diagonal-drive functionality and Adaptive Air Suspension with available segment-leading Extract Mode capability. Also standard is Watts to Freedom for maximum acceleration capability, including a GM-estimated 0-60 mph in approximately 3 seconds, and up to 350 kW 800V DC Fast Charge capable of charging nearly 100 miles in 10 minutes.
The included Extreme Off-Road Package features 18-inch wheels, 35-inch-OD Goodyear Wrangler Territory MT tires, underbody armor, rock sliders, underbody cameras - as a part of a best-in-class number of available camera views - and an industry-leading Infinity Roof with removable transparent Sky Panels that can stow in the "frunk" at the front of the vehicle. A Super Cruise driver assistance feature offers hands-free driving and automatic lane changing on compatible roads.
Inside the Hummer EV's cabin was designed with an unprecedented combination of innovation and luxury. The Lunar Horizon-themed interior features Tech Bronze accents, durable all-weather flooring and more - including a Bose 14-speaker audio system featuring Centerpoint with Electric Vehicle Sound Enhancement that creates an acoustical experience designed for the Hummer EV cabin.
