Another weekend of empowerment as BAMG (Black Automotive Media Group) concluded our automotive internship with HBCU students from Howard University and the Ford Motor Company. Over the last three months the program achieved its goals by offering the interns multimedia and marketing opportunities that traditionally do not cross their paths. We met at Sankofa Café and Bookstore in DC (across from campus) to showcase the all-electric Mustang Mach-e and the adventurous Bronco Sport SUV. Wow, how excited and inquisitive they were. Let’s continue making a difference my brothers and sisters. One Love! For more info visit www.AutomotiveRhythms.com

Wow, what a spectacular time Automotive Rhythms had in Austin putting the all-new 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) through various driving activities to observe its updated capabilities on and off-road. Introduced in 1992, the 5th generation American SUV now receives an electrified powertrain which allows it to travel 25 electric miles, similar to the Wrangler 4xe. The goal for the brand is to reach a sustainability target of zero-emission 4xe Jeeps in every utility segment by 2025.

The fascination of the HUMMER EV resides in its performance. Imagine a 9,000-lb electric truck blessed with a whopping 1,000-horsepower and 11,500 lb-ft of wheel torque (1,200 lb-ft of motor torque) from the three-motor e4WD system with torque vectoring. Now envision that exact vehicle smoking most sports cars (without the smoke) utilizing its Tyreek Hill 0-60 mph sprint time of 3 seconds.

The HUMMER EV SUT is an outstanding rock crawler and can hang with the best, whether it's a Jeep Wrangler or a Land Rover. GMC partnered with Goodyear for the truck's standard 35" Wrangler Territory MT (Maximum Traction) tire with an open tread design to help clear out mud. An optional 37” is available from either BF Goodrich or Goodyear. Owners can view the wheels and terrain from an app and UltraVision’s 18 camera angles, including two underbody views to ensure the HUMMER is taking the proper lines off-road. Underbody armory stems from five skid plates and rock sliders for a complete cover. Additional confidence manifests from Terrain Mode, 16" total ground clearance, a 50-degree approach angle, an electric locking differential and rear virtual locking differential, and Air Down Mode to lower tire pressure for better traction. Then you have Extract Mode, which raises the Air Ride Adaptive Suspension another 5.8” to help the truck walk over obstructions or climb out of dicey situations unimpeded. It can also swim through 32” of water. We ascended rocky hills during our desert excursion, bolted through dusty trails, and crawled back down with ease.

When you set the HUMMER EV in "Watts to Freedom" mode it will smoke (without the smoke) most sports cars. It rips 0-60 as fast as Tyreek Hill scores TDs. Three seconds to be exact. Akin to Launch Control, Watts to Freedom lowers the EV 3.5" and pins passengers to their seats upon take off.

The electric drivetrain of the Mercedes-AMG EQS 53 consists of a new 400 Volt Lithium-Ion battery with a 107.8 kW capacity, AMG tuned battery management, and two (front and rear) permanently excited synchronous electric motors. Together they put out a total of 649-horsepower or 751-horsepower when boosting with RACE START from the AMG Dynamic Plus Package.
