EV Channels Review
The Straight Pipes deliver an enthusiastic review of the 2022 GMC Hummer EV Edition 1, highlighting its "Watts to Freedom" launch control as a theatrical and impressive feature. They are particularly impressed by the "Crab Walk" functionality, enabled by 10 degrees of rear-wheel steering, which allows for unique maneuverability. The infotainment system, with its video-game-like animations and space-themed easter eggs (including a jab at the Tesla Cybertruck), is also a point of praise. While acknowledging the vehicle's immense size and weight, which impacts braking and cornering, the reviewers find it surprisingly nimble for its class. They note the impressive 530 km (329 miles) of range from the 200 kWh battery, though charging times are not detailed beyond a 100-mile gain in 10 minutes on a 350kW charger. The review concludes that despite its "gimmicks," the Hummer EV is one of their favorite EVs driven, offering a unique and fun experience that transcends its electric powertrain, making it a compelling choice over hypothetical competitors.
