Uploaded 3 years ago by Throttle House

Video Summary

Here is the requested information:
- It has 1,000 horsepower and is silent.
- Traction control can be turned off twice to activate a funky noise and WATTS to FREEDOM mode.
- In this mode, the vehicle lowers and offers fast, smooth acceleration.
- GM claims 11,500-pound feet of torque, but that's multiplied wheel torque; the real number is closer to 1,100, being a bit misleading.
- It hit 60 miles per hour in 3.4 seconds, slightly off from the claim of 3, but it's smooth and quick.
- Performance shortcomings include a speed limiter of 106 miles per hour.
- This is a tri-motor like the Model S Plaid, but in a Hummer.
- The nameplate represents a journey from a genuine military vehicle to a "military vehicle for the road" to a limo to this electric monster.
- As tested, it costs $112,000 US dollars.
- The battery is 212-kilowatt hours, with a limited driving range of 329 miles.
- The reviewer notes that it's inefficient as an EV but true to the original Hummer.
- It can control all the screens in the interior by simply clicking a specific knob.
- One novel technology it has is CrabWalk, which turns the rear wheels in the same direction to dodge obstacles.
- Because it's heavy, the suspension is stiff, making everything jostle on small bumps.
- There's a lot of cool technology on the inside.
- The graphics are done by those who made Fortnite.
- The roof panels come off and can be stored.
- The Hummer got everyone's attention.
- It is built for showing off.
- Rear wheel steering is good, makes the Rivian R1T feel large in comparison, and has a fantastic turning circle.
- It's like a "big, dumb shark."
- Overall, despite not being a "gas guzzler," it is an EV that is just a ton of fun.
- One of the most exciting EVs on sale right now.
- It is " entirely pointless and also quite a true, modern Hummer."
