2024 GMC HUMMER EV 3X SUV: Welcome to The Quiet Revolution!

Experienced by Kimatni Rawlins

Tune in as we explore the intelligent and calculated technology of the 2024 HUMMER EV 3X SUV in a Tide Metallic exterior hue. The EV SUV continues to expand GMC’s electric supertruck lineup while incorporating standout features such as massive front tow hooks, an eTrunk with a power hood, a power swinging tailgate, and 22″ aluminum rims wrapped in Goodyear Wrangler all-terrain tires which were equipped on my media loaner. Thus, you can take your 3X off-road, over rocks, or through muddy waters if you desire.

The HUMMER EV is empowered with an Air Ride Suspension and 4-wheel steering with CrabWalk mode to help it handle like a smaller crossover or crawl diagonally out of tight spaces. I had no problem u-turning in busy parking lots or parallel parking in the city. CrabWalk works in unison with Active Rear Steer (up to 10 degrees), allowing the SUV to slide side-to-side while the front fascia points straight ahead. CrabWalk can be used for slow-speed maneuvering or at higher speeds for fun and games.

Ultimately, the fascination with the HUMMER EV resides in its performance capabilities. Imagine this sizeable and heavy electric truck achieving 830-horsepower and 11,500 lb-ft of torque from the available three-motor Ultium Drive system. Now envision that exact vehicle smoking most sports cars (without the smoke) utilizing a Tyreek Hill-like 0-60 mph sprint time of 3.5 seconds!

I was amazed at some of the HUMMER EV 3X SUV’s feats and technologies that set it apart from gasoline-powered 4x4s. One of the most palpable experiences behind the wheel is Watts to Freedom, akin to Launch Control. Once actuated, the EV lowers itself 3.5″ and pins passengers to their seats upon take off. It feels like that initial rollercoaster drop after a 10-second climb. Trust me, there is nothing like the momentum of electric torque.

Inside the cabin you will find tri-zone climate control, 12-way power front bucket seats, and a 13.4″ color infotainment touchscreen utilizing Google Built-in for simplicity when navigating or searching. Tech partner Bose provides a 14-speaker premium surround sound system for an immersive listening experience. Moreover, large dials operate the HUMMER’s multitude of digital attributes and some of the traditional controls such as volume.

Key features from a style and functionality perspective include an Infinity Roof with a 4-part removable Sky Panel that stores in the front eTrunk, a HUMMER EV lighting signature, and “My Mode” for either Relaxed, Normal, or Adrenaline-based driving choices. A new optional Power Station enables 19.2kW AC charging, generator functionality, and the ability to energize other EVs. Most importantly, the 20-module, double-stacked Ultium battery will offer more than 300 miles of range from a full charge.

The total MSRP for GMC’s EV supertruck is $107,610, including the $2,295 destination charge. GMC also provides nearly 200 accessories for the HUMMER EV 3X SUV to help differentiate yours from the rest. Are you ready for The Quiet Revolution?
