OSHAWA, Ont. (Saturday, April 3, 2021) – GMC’s electric supertruck lineup expands with the addition of the 2024 HUMMER EV SUV making its debut in a new commercial film narrated by LeBron James. Fans can also watch the reveal and learn how to reserve a HUMMER EV SUV at https://reserve.hummercanada.ca

The new spot focuses on the SUV’s revolutionary capability and signature HUMMER EV features that offers Extract Mode¹ and CrabWalk¹ on select trims   

“The GMC HUMMER EVs were envisioned to be the capable and compelling electric supertrucks,” said Duncan Aldred, global vice president of Buick and GMC. “The new HUMMER EV SUV is the next chapter, which will offer many options for customers to tailor the truck to their lifestyles, while continuing to encourage them to forge new paths with zero emissions.”

Driven by General Motors’ next-generation Ultium platform, the new HUMMER EV SUV launches with Edition 1, offering customers the choice to equip the vehicle for optimal driving range or maximum off-road capability. Edition 1 comes standard with 22-inch premium wheels, assist steps and floor liners.

The available Extreme Off-Road package adds 18-inch wheels and 35-inch-OD MT tires, underbody armour and rock sliders, front eLocker and virtual rear lockers, heavy-duty ball-spline half shafts, UltraVision² with underbody camera views and more.

Expected best-in-class off-road proportions will help make the new SUV maneuverable, while also making the most of the HUMMER EV’s available signature features such as CrabWalk¹, Extract Mode¹ and more. The SUV’s look remains rugged and includes a new rear design with mounted full-size spare tire. Inside, a similar five-passenger layout from the pickup remains and includes a large and useful rear cargo area.

Additional highlights:

• An off-road beast, with a 126.7-inch wheelbase giving it expected best-in-class off-road proportions with impressive departure and breakover angles, and a tighter turning circle of only 35.4 feet (10.8 meters) with 4 Wheel Steer standard on 2X, 3X and Edition 1
• An immersive interior puts the driver at the center of every moment, including customizable, multisensory user features and an open-air driving experience with the standard Infinity Roof with removable Sky Panels, I-Bar, and rear drop glass
• GM’s Ultium Drive System offers up to 830 horsepower and up to 11,500 lb-ft of torque (GM estimated) — enough power for super-fast 0-60-mph (0-97km/h) sprints in approximately 3.5 seconds with available Watts To Freedom³
• New tactical technology via the redesigned myGMC app⁴ including Energy Assist
• Great degree of customization via My Mode, auxiliary buttons and multiple accessories available at launch
• Next-gen electric, with a 20-module Ultium battery system offering up to a GM estimated 482+ km of range⁵ on Edition 1 (with standard equipment)

Additionally, all HUMMER EV SUV models feature the enhanced version of Super Cruise⁶, an available driver-assistance technology offering hands-free driving on divided and compatible highways and a new automatic lane changing feature, where the system can determine when a lane change is optimal and initiate the maneuver, while following signaling protocols.
