2022 HUMMER EV PICKUP: INSIDEEVS FIRST DRIVE REVIEW

EV Channels Review

InsideEVs provides an in-depth first drive of the 2022 GMC Hummer EV Pickup, highlighting its extreme capabilities both off-road and on pavement. The review emphasizes the vehicle's impressive power, particularly the "Watts to Freedom" launch mode, which delivers astonishing acceleration for its 9,000-pound mass, feeling faster than a Tesla Model S Long Range. Off-road, the Hummer EV excels with its Terrain Mode, advanced camera systems (including underbody views), and remarkable suspension travel that smooths out rough terrain. The CrabWalk feature, enabled by 10 degrees of rear-wheel steering, is showcased as both a functional off-road tool and an entertaining party trick, offering exceptional maneuverability. On-road, the reviewer notes the comfortable ride, instant passing power, and surprisingly composed handling that belies the vehicle's size and weight. While the "Watts to Freedom" mode was restricted for the reviewer, the overall impression is one of a highly capable, albeit massive, electric truck that redefines expectations for its segment.
