McLaren W1 First Drive: Ferocious Hypercar Transcends the Track

You know things are getting serious when McLaren rolls-out the ‘1’ suffix. The origin story is, of course, the very first road car McLaren ever built, the F1. Designed by visionary Formula 1 aerodynamicist and engineer Gordon Murray, it arrived in 1992 and rendered all other supercars obsolete. The tiny, lightweight F1 embraced carbon-fibre material technology, adopted a radical centre seat driving position with two passengers set back and either side and was powered by a 6.1-litre V12 engine from BMW that might as well have been passed down directly from the Gods. Game-changer? That doesn’t even come close to describing its impact, even if at the time sales didn’t come easy… The P1 was very different. Rather than a unique side project from the Formula 1 team, it was instead a statement piece for McLaren Automotive, a new road car division still in its infancy. It arrived in 2013 and was a wild-eyed showstopper. It traded the long-legged gait and supple suspension of the F1 for a weaponized hybrid system capable of delivering 903bhp and huge blue flames from its drainpipe exhaust. In Race mode, it lowered by 2-inches and its massive concave rear wing extended into the sky. The P1 was all about aerodynamic downforce, crazed acceleration and a snorting, angry soundtrack that mixed venomous twin-turbocharged V8 with the manic whirr of electric motors. Not so much a car as a force of nature. And now there’s this: The W1. It’s a true successor to the P1 with a similar brief and, on the face of it, it evolves rather than radically reinvents McLaren’s vision for the ultimate hypercar. This is not a criticism. How could it be when the result is this dramatic and has such staggering, other-worldly potential? The W1 has 1258bhp delivered to the rear wheels. It’s capable of 0-124 mph in 5.8-seconds, the quarter mile in 9.6-seconds at 167 mph and produces 2205lbs of downforce at 174 mph. The active aerodynamics – particularly a rear wing that extends way out beyond the rear of the car – are pure performance art and deliver massive aerodynamic efficiency. The result, aside from looking extremely cool, is that the W1 is McLaren’s fastest road car around a racetrack. Ever. Their benchmark circuit is the breath-taking Handling Track at the Nardo proving ground in southern Italy, where the W1 beats their previous benchmark, the flyweight McLaren Senna, by three seconds per lap. Or “a lifetime” as they call it in racing. Maybe two lifetimes! Core to the W1’s performance is the new ‘Aerocell’ carbon fibre tub. With integrated seats and a raised footwell to allow for inboard pushrod-operated front suspension – which in turn gives air a clean path to the huge underbody diffuser – it’s light, stiff, space efficient and has been instrumental in McLaren realising a full ground-effect concept. Just like last year’s F1 cars, which were the fastest ever made. There is also an active front wing and the aforementioned complex rear wing dubbed ‘Active Long Tail’. All of which is very admirable. But the ‘anhedral’ or gullwing doors and the fantastically shirnked-wrapped feel to the minimalist, highly-focussed interior are a pretty good side effect. The W1 feels special. Those fixed seats are perhaps a shade more upright than expected, and the driving position is less obviously racecar than, for example, the Aston Martin Valhalla or Ferrari F80. However, once you’ve adjusted the pedals (they move on a slider) and the delicate, slim-rimmed and alcantara-trimmed steering wheel, there’s an overwhelming sense of purpose. The cabin is so tightly tailored and imparts a sense of lightness and agility before you so much as start the all-new 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine, which makes 916bhp all on its own and revs to 9200rpm. Reach up to a roof-mounted control panel to find the starter button. Maybe this fighter plane trope is a little corny, but somehow you feel thrilled rather than manipulated. The W1 has a sense of humour as well as all that motorsport-derived sophistication. There’s a short delay, but when the engine does fire it’s instant – as the high-powered hybrid system negates the need for an old-school starter motor. A sharp flare of revs tells you that this engine is hyper-responsive and angry. On some deep level your brain and body have been sent all the signals required to prepare for something new and intense. Ahead of us, an empty Mugello racetrack, so press and hold the blue button next to the red starter to select Race mode. The centre display graphic shows the W1’s transformation in real time as it lowers by 37mm at the front and 17mm at the rear whilst simultaneously undocking all that active aero goodness. Race mode is not road legal and is geo-locked. You can show your friends and neighbours the aero dance, but it won’t allow you to select a gear to actually drive unless you’re at a circuit. Incidentally, the rocker switches either side of the display binnacle allow further options now: Toggle up the Handling control on the left for Race+ (for F1-spec super smooth tracks) or stick to Race for gnarlier ones. On the right toggle select ‘GP’ for sustained performance over a stint or ‘Sprint’ to unleash all 1258bhp for a time attack. There’s also a DRS and Boost function on the steering wheel. But I guarantee you won’t have the mental capacity to use them… Exit the pitlane, pin the throttle and W1 takes maybe a millisecond or two to gather its might (the gearing stretches to around 60mph in first, nearly 100mph in second, primarily to aid traction), but then lunges at the first turn with incredible ferocity. It instantly feels light, almost like inertia is no longer a thing. McLaren really does prize lightweight engineering, and at 3084lbs (dry) the W1 has a 278lbs advantage over the Ferrari F80. Plus, Ferrari uses figures for cars fitted with every single carbon fibre option. In reality, the gap is probably wider still. The impression of agility and stunning control continues as the track is unravelled at startling pace. The electric motor mounted to the side of the new 8-speed dual-clutch transmission is good for 342bhp and 324lb ft and it boosts any low rev lethargy the new flat-plane crank V8 might have (spoiler alert: It doesn’t appear to have any), so the W1 just feels massively, almost impossibly powerful at any revs. Even so, there’s real reward for wringing it out to 9200rpm and the power curve feels superheated but organic, too. In Race mode the steering – still hydraulically powered – has less assistance and it is noticeably heavier than other McLarens. However, that resistance is welcome as it gives you something to push against and imparts so much information about the front grip level. New Pirelli Trofeo RS tyres with a bigger front footprint than P1 or Senna really help. The front-end feels incredibly secure and the rear-axle follows with perfectly-aligned precision. The whole car feels super-stiff, completely locked into the surface and inspires confidence, but there’s an inherent agility and adjustability that means you’re quickly confident to push at its limits and really impose yourself on the chassis. It’s such a complex car but the driving experience is intuitive, and the driver feels a key contributor rather than just amazed (or terrified) observer, holding on for dear life. Every dynamic ingredient really is shockingly effective and yet has a subtlety and lightness of touch. From that delicious steering to the incredible brakes, the W1 just feels so mission-focussed, so hooked-up. Only the new 8-speed gearbox is a slightly disappointment. It’s fast and punchy, but after the scintillating energy of the Ferrari F80 ’box it feels competent rather than inspired. Other quibbles – it’s okay to quibble when the starting price is $2.1-million before tax and destination charge. Well, that new twin-turbocharged V8 sounds tightly wound and aggressive but if you have a P1 tucked in the garage you’ll miss the snorting, Darth Vader-style soundscape and all the drama that goes with it. Ferrari does this better, too. The F80 sounds deathly dull from the outside but is a riot of turbochargers, electric motors and all sorts of mechanical fury within the cockpit. Even so, the W1 is wildly entertaining on track, and the rear-drive configuration makes it more of a challenge and more satisfying than the F80 when chasing lap times or just sliding around for fun. In the Ferrari, you must second-guess what the front e-axle might do, whereas in the W1 it’s all on you. There are plenty of tools to help, including the ingenious Variable Drift Control, but somehow the W1 is more heroic. Or at least fools you into feeling more heroic – which is surely the point! On the road? Nimble, loaded with feel and sublime response. The ride is noticeably tougher than, say, a 750S but the control is ramped-up too, and with a bit more speed the whole car finds a delicious rhythm. Sport mode for the drivetrain brings some nice turbo whooshes and chirps, but the noise remains high-quality rather than extreme excitement. It is perhaps the one area the W1 feels just a little too tame. Of course, there’s nothing tame about the raw performance… which is genuinely shocking and literally hurts your neck muscles after a few hours. How McLaren has given the W1 such immense traction through just two driven wheels is beyond me. So, is it worthy of that ‘1’? I think so. Perhaps we won’t be talking about $25-million auction results for the W1 in 30 years from now, as we are for the F1. Perhaps it doesn’t quite have the amazing presence and jaw-dropping star quality of the simply gorgeous P1. But it is such an intense experience and the way it marries stunning track performance with delicate poise and entertainment on normal roads is something akin to magic. Maybe not ‘the one’ but definitely a searing, outrageous addition to McLaren’s fiercest family line. Just 399 W1’s will be built and they’re all sold. I’m not surprised at all.

GMC Marks 25 Years of the HUMMER Nameplate With Limited Run EV ICON | 25

Few automotive nameplates have undergone a transformation quite like HUMMER has. Inspired by the military's High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle (Humvee) and propelled into the spotlight by the likes of Arnold Schwarzenegger, the first civilian Hummer, later known as the H1, debuted in the early 1990s through AM General. But it was after the purchase of the brand by General Motors in 1999 that it would broaden the appeal with the launch of the H2 in 2002 and subsequently the smaller H3 in 2004, turning HUMMER into one of the defining automotive icons from that era. Although production ended in 2010, the nameplate returned under GMC in 2020 as an all-electric supertruck, trading V8 power for Ultium batteries, all without abandoning the imposing presence that made it so popular in the first place. Now, GMC is marking 25 years of the HUMMER nameplate with the limited production 2027 HUMMER EV ICON | 25. Making its debut at the 2026 ESPYS in New York City, where GMC returned as the event's Official Vehicle Sponsor, the ICON | 25 features an exclusive exterior finish called "ICON," a modern interpretation of the H2's signature yellow paint, that pairs with a Jet Black interior and a black front approach shield. Each vehicle also receives serialized instrument panel badging, heritage-inspired graphics within the drive mode interface, and an exclusive commemorative keepsake reserved for owners. The anniversary edition will be available on both Pickup and SUV body styles in 2X and 3X trims. <- Gallery -> The special edition joins the lineup as a series of updates for the broader 2027 HUMMER EV that are being rolled out. Every Pickup and SUV now features a native North American Charging Standard (NACS) inlet, allowing direct access to Tesla's extensive Supercharger network without an adapter. Bidirectional vehicle-to-home charging also continues to be offered when paired with compatible GM Energy equipment. Elsewhere, the 2027 lineup gains five new exterior shades, including the ICON finish, along with two new 22-inch wheel designs. Existing capability-focused features, including the famous Crab Walk, King Crab rear wheel steering, Air Ride Adaptive Suspension with Extract Mode, Super Cruise hands-free driver assistance technology, and the removable Infinity Roof, all carry over. Performance remains unchanged at the top of the model range. Equipped with the optional 24 module battery, the HUMMER EV 3X Pickup continues to produce up to 1,160 horsepower and 13,000 pound-feet of torque, with a claimed 0 to 60 mph dash in as little as 2.8 seconds. Production of both the 2027 GMC HUMMER EV and the limited-run HUMMER EV ICON | 25 will begin later this year at GM's Factory ZERO Assembly Center in Detroit and Hamtramck, Michigan, with pricing and exact production numbers to be announced closer to launch.

Review: 2026 GMC Hummer EV Pickup

Opens A Toybox Of Excess On a sleepy country road with no traffic in sight, I come to a stop in the 2026 GMC Hummer EV 3X pickup. I tap the stability control toggle twice to engage Watts to Freedom mode. The center screen brings up a graphic of the pickup on a nighttime runway, a spaceship whir provides a sense of ceremony, and the digital instrument cluster pops up a graphic asking if I want to proceed. I click ‘yes’ using the toggle on the steering wheel, then have to wait a few seconds as the air suspension lowers the truck by 3.5 inches. The gauge cluster brings up a graphic saying brake harder. I follow dutifully, and the graphic changes to say “Floor it.” I release the brake, a torque meter graphic at the top of the IP indicates I’m using max torque, and 9,000 pounds (or so) of Hummer launches as hard as you’d expect in any supercar. The 0-60 mph sprint flashes by in about three seconds. I’m awestruck, and tempted to yell, “Murica, f-yeah!” Watts to Freedom is one of a full toybox of goodies offered by the Hummer EV pickup. The Hummer was the first of General Motors’ new-generation of electric vehicles, and the company threw every bit of technology they could at it. That technology gives it a good range, immense power, real off-road capability, and a few party tricks to show off to your friends. The power is provided by a trio of electric motors that combine to make a whopping 1,160 horsepower. The power is sudden and strong in Watts to Freedom, and given how much weight it has to propel it’s unexpected. The rest of the time, however, the power is easy to modulate to toddle along in traffic. My tester has the optional 24-module, 205-kWh battery pack that increases range from 312 to 363 miles. It’s a hefty $9,995 option. It only adds to the Hummer’s weight problem, and you’ll have to decide if the extra range is worth that price. I think not. Despite the reasonable range, the Hummer EV isn’t efficient for an EV. It’s EPA rated at 1.49 miles per kWh, which makes it among the least efficient EVs on the market. Still, its MPGe ratings of 58 city, 46 highway, 52 combined indicate that overall it is about as energy efficient as a Toyota Prius. It can handle a DC fast charge at up to 350 kw, which can take as little as 45 minutes for a full charge, and it comes with a 19.2-kWh onboard charger for faster home charging. The weight also affects the ride and handling, but not as negatively as you’d expect. Rather than the typical pickup ride with a rear end that can bounce around due to low weight, the Hummer’s weight is distributed more evenly front to back, and it sits low. This helps the Hummer EV smooth the road. Its tires absorb impacts well, creating a smooth ride that isn’t nearly as busy as other trucks. Handling suffers for the weight, but it’s not much different than any other full-size pickup. The Hummer EV pickup has an advanced air suspension with adaptive dampers. With 10.1 inches of standard ground clearance, the Hummer leans notably in corners, but the steering is stable and direct, and this big truck is fairly pleasant to drive. It also has fantastic off-road capability for its size. The air springs give it a standard ground clearance of 10.6 inches. That can drop 3.5 inches for Watts to Freedom and for an entry/exit height. It can also rise to 16.5 inches for an Extract mode that is meant to help the vehicle to clear rocks or rise out of the muck. This is all much easier with the available knobby 305/70R18 Goodyear Wrangler Territory MT tires in the Extreme Off-Road package, but I prefer the ride and handling of the more street-friendly 305/55R22 Goodyear Wrangler Territory AT tires on my tester. The Hummer tends to roll over on the Off-Road package tires, making for very sloppy handling. It’s more composed with the 22s. The Extreme Off-Road package also includes front and rear locking differentials, skid plates, rear recovery hooks, rocker protectors, and forward and rearward underbody cameras. That all helps the Hummer get through tough terrain, but even without the Off-Road package, the Hummer has some goodies that aid its maneuverability both on-road and off. They’re also pretty neat party tricks that you can use to delight your friends. The most notable of them is Crab Walk. It uses the rear-axle steering to turn the rear wheels in the same direction as the fronts, up to 10 degrees. I gave it a try on a couple of occasions for the novelty. To use it, I come to a stop with the steering wheel straight, then press and hold the 4-Wheel Steer button on the Driver Mode Control dial on the center console. I have to keep it down for a few seconds to trigger the Crabwalk animation on the center screen. From there, it’s just a matter of steering right or left to let the Hummer drive diagonally at up to 20 mph. It’s mostly just a curiosity, but it could come in handy when facing a tight off-road maneuver. King Crab off-road rear steer mode would be even more useful, though. It turns the rear wheels twice as fast as the fronts to swing the rear end, which could be very useful for off-road switchbacks. It’s activated the same way Crab Walk is, except I have to hit the King Crab button, which looks like a crown with crab claws, opposite of the 4-Wheel Steer button. It’s great for shortening the turning radius, which is already short given the rear-axle steering. The Hummer’s cabin doesn’t have the rich materials of a typical six-figure vehicle, but its synthetic leather and other surface materials feel appropriately marine grade. The large screens, an 11-inch digital instrument cluster, and a 13.4-inch infotainment touchscreen, give it a high-tech feel as well. Space for five is generous, and the five-foot bed is useful but not as utilitarian as the 6.5- and 8.0-foot beds of gas pickup alternatives. The 2026 Hummer EV starts at $101,090, including a stiff $1,995 destination fee, for a rear-wheel drive, two-motor 2X model. The 3X model I’m driving starts at $107,295 to add the front motor, more power, and Watts to Freedom mode. If you’re going to choose a Hummer EV pickup, the extra money for the 3X model feels worthwhile. It brings not only more power but more toys, and the toys are the main reason to pick this oversized tour de force of electric vehicle technology. View All Hummer EVs For Sale Images: GMC

2026 GMC HUMMER EV Gets Faster, Smarter, And More Rugged

The new HUMMER EV has arrived! Once a military machine turned luxury suburban status symbol, the Hummer has been through quite the evolution, from gas-guzzling giant to all-electric supertruck. The modern GMC HUMMER EV flipped the script when it debuted, instantly creating a new category as the first fully electric supertruck. For 2026, GMC is continuing to improve the platform with new performance upgrades, fresh software features, and even a Carbon Fiber Edition that sprints from 0 to 60 mph in just 2.8 seconds. The HUMMER EV is quickly becoming a benchmark in both electric performance and off-road luxury. GMC's exclusive addition for 2026 is the new King Crab mode, a next-level version of the HUMMER EV's already impressive four-wheel steer system. It tightens up maneuverability off-road by turning the rear wheels even more aggressively than the front, which is ideal for navigating tight trails or rock crawling. Owners of 2022 to 2025 HUMMER EV models can expect a software update to unlock it later this year. It's part of GMC's promise to keep the HUMMER evolving long after it leaves the dealership. Of course, the headline-grabber is the Carbon Fiber Edition, the quickest HUMMER EV to date. The limited edition version is available for both Pickup and SUV in 3X trim, which features a massive 24-module battery and unique exterior/interior touches like a Magnus Gray Matte paint job and Velocity Ember interior design. On top of its new look, the Carbon Fiber Edition can transfer energy to other EVs or even power your home when properly equipped. It's loaded with functional extras too, like carbon fiber wheels, a power tonneau cover, and improved Super Cruise with automatic lane changes on mapped routes. The HUMMER's incredible force, 1,160 horsepower and 13,000 lb-ft of torque, is now wrapped in smarter software and better ride quality. Finishing things off, the 2026 HUMMER EV adds new exterior colors, stealthy interior options, and a redesigned infotainment experience with Google Built-In. From trail-blazing features like King Crab mode to luxury-laced editions made for serious collectors, the latest HUMMER EV keeps pushing the envelope. Production kicks off later this year, and while pricing is still under wraps, one thing is clear: the HUMMER's electric future is only getting brighter.

Hummer EV x Call Of Duty Collaboration Teased

And we have no idea what it entails, but I'm excited. On September 15, 2022, the Call of Duty: Next showcase will occur. During this live stream event, the future of the video game franchise will be on full display. This includes the multiplayer reveal of Modern Warfare II, information on the future of Warzone, and more that has yet to have been announced. Interestingly, the GMC Twitter account is also involved with this event to some extent. This was made apparent through a tweet that includes a video and the words: "What you never saw coming, is coming. Tune in 9.15.22 to @CallofDuty Next at 1 p.m. ET to see. #NationalVideoGamesDay #CallofDuty #CODNEXT". Attached to the tweet is a video of the new Hummer EV taking off, hinting at the fact that this new electric SUV will be part of the showcase event. As far as what that means, I have no clue. However, they note that whatever it is will be something that we "never saw coming," so that excites me quite a bit. Additionally, the license plate of the Hummer EV in the video has the license plate "MWII." Maybe we will see a Call of Duty edition Hummer EV or perhaps the new SUV will be included in the next iteration of Call of Duty or in Warzone 2. To find out, we will all just have to watch the live stream to see what this all means on September 15. View All Hummer EVs For Sale https://twitter.com/GMC/status/1569415706151731202

GMC Hummer EV Price, Specs, Photos & Review

This is nothing like the Hummer of 20 years ago. Who doesn’t remember the Hummers of the past? A quick pop culture icon, the Hummer always had large stature, bold presence, and icon status that few cars in the 21st century can match. The new GMC Hummer EV maintains all of that, however, it does it without the old Hummer’s many drawbacks. As lovable as it was, the Hummer of the 2000s was often cumbersome, clunky, and of course, comically inefficient. However, the new Hummer EV goes above and beyond fixing those issues and makes another car that is iconic not just as a pop-culture staple, but as an incredible vehicle as well. GMC Hummer EV Price The Hummer has always been a luxury vehicle and a unique one at that. The Hummer EV’s combination of luxury, style, and incredible rugged performance capability is one that’s going to be hard to find in other cars, so don’t expect a GMC Hummer EV for sale to be cheap by any means. The GMC Hummer EV price starts at $108,700, and currently, reservations are available for the pickup truck and SUV body styles of the car. There are plenty of options available for you to customize the Hummer EV exactly to your liking, and of course, those will add to the price. The Hummer EV is a completely new model, so don’t count on finding used examples, but if you’re interested in a pre-owned Hummer EV, stay patient and your dream electric truck or SUV is sure to come onto the market. MUST-READ: GMC Releases Its New Accessory Line For The Hummer EV GMC Hummer EV Review The new Hummer EV is revolutionary, but when you compare it to the rather controversial Hummer lineup we knew before, it gets even better. The Hummer EV continues the Hummer’s DNA of being an attention-commanding, large, and bold vehicle while removing the past Hummer’s woes of an inefficient, impractical powertrain with a larger carbon footprint than the ar itself. With its new electric powertrain, everything changes, and the Hummer EV becomes capable of things that we would have never thought possible, like the fact that the GMC Hummer EV horsepower is as much as 1000 for the pickup truck and 830 for the SUV, and the fact that the GMC Hummer EV review completely lacks the con of emissions from a gasoline engine. The new Hummer EV is the best of both worlds, and when we say best, we mean it. GMC Hummer EV Specs The new GMC Hummer EV specs have quite impressive numbers to show off, and what they translate to is a driving experience that completely defies what we thought Hummer was about before, and a vehicle that is one of the most dynamic, rugged, and capable vehicles available, all with an iconic look to go with. At only 106 mph, the GMC Hummer EV top speed is not putting down hypercar numbers, but where it does put down hypercar numbers is in acceleration. The GMC Hummer EV 0-60 is as little as 3.0 seconds, and with its Watts To Freedom launch control system, the GMC Hummer EV ¼ mile is only 11.7 seconds. GMC Hummer EV Specs Price: $108,700 Engine: Three electric motors Transmission: Direct-drive Horsepower: 830 hp (SUV), 1000 hp (truck) Torque: 11,500 lb/ft 0-60 mph: 3.0 s ¼ mile: 11.7 s Top Speed: 106 mph GMC Hummer EV Engine Needless to say, the GMC Hummer EV engine isn’t really an engine. The powertrain consists of a 212.7-kWh lithium-ion battery pack, which provides power for three electric motors: one to drive the front wheels, and two to drive the rear wheels. Altogether, the system is able to provide as much as 1000 horsepower, but that’s far from the only advantage it has over a gasoline counterpart. The lack of an engine under the hood means that you get the bonus of added covered storage space in the front of the vehicle, which can be a serious advantage for truck owners who want to store things that they don’t necessarily want to be in an open bed. Along with that, because of the battery pack’s position at the underside of the vehicle, and the lack of a heavy engine at the front, the weight in the vehicle is distributed harmoniously, and the center of gravity is incredibly low. This is a huge advantage, especially for vehicles like SUVs and trucks, which can maintain their stature and off-roading capabilities while immensely reducing the once-notorious risk they had of flipping over when turned sharply or driven on an angle that is too steep. GMC Hummer EV Interior Ruggedness and luxury were the brief for the GMC Hummer EV interior. Available in two color schemes, dubbed “Lunar Shadow” and “Lunar Horizon.” Both feature beautiful seating surfaces, bronze accents throughout, and vast, intuitive digital displays for infotainment and driving assistance. Super Cruise is also available, which is GM’s semi-autonomous driving system, along with flat-folding seats for storage, a front trunk, and a stunning Infinity Roof which features “sky panels” that can be placed and removed modularly for the perfect open-air experience and panoramic drive. GMC Hummer EV Brakes Brakes are one of the most underrated strengths of electric vehicles. That’s because regenerative braking, a feature only electrified vehicles can have, allows for the friction from the brakes to be converted into electrical energy, which is then used to go back to the car and charge the battery. This innovative technology provides even more efficiency for electric vehicles, and now, it’s being taken further to make driving easier, as well. The GMC Hummer EV Brakes feature the option of One Pedal driving, which automates the regenerative braking and simplifies driving for an easy, luxurious ride. GMC Hummer EV Standout Features The GMC Hummer EV is a vehicle born to dominate the tarmac, and also to be one of the greatest vehicles ever once it strays off the beaten path, to this end, it features incredibly massive 35-inch tires, and similarly massive wheels on both the SUV and pickup models. To maneuver tricky situations both on and off-road, the GMC Hummer EV features Crabwalk, the ability to drive diagonally with 4-wheel steering, and Extract mode, the ability to raise the suspension by 6 inches in tough situations, giving the new Hummer EV more mobility than a Hummer has ever had before.

See the Hummer EV's Crab Walk and Watts To Freedom Modes ...

The Crab Walk is insane to see in action. We've known about the new 2022 Hummer EV Pickup for quite some time, but we're now finally able to see it in action. InsideEVs' Tom Moloughney recently went out to GM's Milford, Michigan proving grounds to drive the EV Hummer and see if it lives up to the hype. In the First Drive video up above, you'll see Tom take the Hummer through different courses that showcase its different abilities. There's off-roading, hillclimbing, rockclimbing and so much more to be seen. My two favorite parts had to be seeing the Crab Walk in action and the Watts To Freedom launch mode. While I knew what the Crab Walk system was capable of, seeing the massive EV Hummer drive side-to-side was bizarre to watch. As for the Watts To Freedom launches, it's hard to believe a vehicle that big and heavy can be that quick. Check it all out for yourself in the video up above. All Hummers For Sale

GMC Hummer EV Flexes Off-Road At Moab

Your truck can't do this! Utah is home to some of the toughest trails on Earth. Now that engineers are finalizing their calibrations, the GMC Hummer EV has flexed its abilities at Moab. The powertrain is rated to offer 1,000 horsepower and 11,500 lb-ft of torque in the SUV, so the pickup shouldn't be far off. This comes on the heels of the Tactical Tech preview we saw last month. Edition 1 models will arrive with air suspension, crab walk, extract mode, and terrain mode. The latter allows for one-pedal driving, and that means rock crawling and holding fast to steep obstacles. When you are back on level ground, 60 mph arrives in 3 seconds at a starting price of $79,995. Production will start soon, so stay with us for all your Hummer news. https://players.brightcove.net/1050888044001/bNJ5EPvlNA_default/index.html?videoId=6253707358001 Image and video (C) GM
