The GMC Hummer EV is a big boy. Tipping the scales at over 9,000 pounds, it's the heaviest production EV you can buy today, and stretches out to a gargantuan 206.7 inches long and 93.7 inches wide—side mirrors included. Only its cousins, the Chevrolet Silverado EV and Sierra EV pickups, even come close.
That's all to say: The Hummer's daunting size means it's never been the most efficient EV. But for the 2024 model year, GMC updated the Hummer range with a new base model and a 3X trim, which bumps the driving range to 314 miles on the SUV and up to 381 miles on the pickup, depending on how you spec it.
This particular tester is a 3X SUV loaded up with options like the $1,495 Infinity Roof and the $1,095 Sport package, which adds splash guards, red emblems, and recovery hooks. For $112,505 as tested, this Hummer gets 312 miles of range. The question is: Do those upgrades make the GMC Hummer EV significantly better to live with?

The Good
- Looks Awesome
- Quick As Hell
- Neat Features & Tricks
There's no denying the GMC Hummer EV's visceral charm. Just like the former gas-powered Hummer that came before, its daunting size and rigid proportions make it stand out in any crowd. Love it or hate it, you can't miss it—especially in this $625 Deep Aurora metallic paint job. If you want to be even shoutier, the $1,225 Afterburner orange paint is borderline eye-searing.
Pair those rugged good looks with a ridiculous 0-60 mile-per-hour time, and the Hummer is sure to impress leaving your next Cars and Coffee. Its three electric motors and 205.0-kilowatt-hour (usable) lithium-ion battery pack give it 830 horsepower and 1,200 pound-feet of torque, which help launch the 9,063-pound SUV to 60 miles per hour in just 3.4 seconds. It's borderline black magic.
The upgrades for 2024 carry into 2025 mostly unchanged; things like the optional Extreme Off-Road Package, new paint, updated interior bits, and on this particular car, the Infinity glass roof and the dealer-installed Sport package. And of course, the Hummer pioneered the “CrabWalk” feature, which is still true of the 2025 model.
The Bad
- Massive
- Inefficient
- Uncomfortable
- Pricey
For as quick, stylish, and feature-rich as the Hummer EV is—it’s still a whole hell of a lot of vehicle. Driving it on tight roads is a chore due to its remarkable width, blind spots are plentiful from the upright design, and visibility is pretty poor. It’s just tough to drive.
The interior also isn’t the most welcoming place to be. It’s lined with hard rubber, plastic, and metal—it’s all high-quality stuff, but there are barely any soft surfaces. The space-inspired patterns throughout the interior also look neat, but the number of shapes and textures makes it pretty assaulting on the eyes.
With 312 miles of range on this version, the Hummer EV does have solid range for such a large vehicle. At least, on paper. Driving across Alligator Alley from Florida’s west coast to east, the Hummer EV barely made the 140-mile journey, even though I started with a full charge. I know I have a heavy foot, but still, the Hummer proved horribly inefficient for a longer trip.
And then there’s the price. The Hummer EV costs $99,045 out of the box for the base 2X, while the 3X tested here starts at $107,145 with destination. That’s well above what Tesla and Rivian ask for their respective electric crossovers, and once you add options, the Hummer EV’s price hikes quickly. This one comes out to $112,505.
