The 2025 GMC Hummer EV 3X Pickup was put to the test on a 300-mile road trip, highlighting both its impressive capabilities and significant drawbacks. While the vehicle boasts a massive battery pack and the potential for over 300 miles of range in ideal conditions, real-world efficiency proved to be a major challenge, with the reviewer experiencing as low as 1.0-1.1 miles per kWh due to a strong headwind. This resulted in a significantly reduced usable range, making the trip require charging. The reviewer found the Tesla Supercharger network usable with the GM adapter, achieving around 175 kW charging speeds, though this is half the Hummer's peak capability and still results in long charge times for the large battery. GM's Super Cruise system was a mixed bag; while often impressive with automatic lane changes and handling construction zones, it suffered from frequent disengagements due to "no road information" and issues during lane changes, leading to frustrating moments where manual control was abruptly required. Despite these issues, the reviewer praised the Bose stereo system and acknowledged the Hummer's potential for long-distance travel in better conditions, though its $130k price tag makes it a niche, albeit cool, vehicle rather than a practical choice for the everyday person.
