The original Hummer was well-suited for adventurous lifestyles but plagued by its high level of emissions, so the Hummer EV has been unveiled by GMC as a more eco-focused alternative. The truck comes as one of the most highly anticipated vehicles for 2020 and is capable of delivering 1,000 horsepower and 11,500 lb-ft of torque, and going from zero to 60mph in just three seconds. The vehicle features a series of modular sky panels that can be opened to achieve an open-air driving experience and is also outfitted with all the latest technology including a total of eighteen cameras for keeping an eye on surroundings.
The Hummer EV will be equipped with advanced batteries to keep it going and a specialized chassis for more comfortable driving.
