Love you videos Doug. but I seriously disagree with your comment regarding them being the furthest along. They do not even have a working driving car yet. A flashy CGI demo video is exactly what makes many of us EV fans roll our eyes as they are all too common. Granted, this one does seem further along than say, Nikola, but they still do not have a driving car. The Cybertruck and the Rivian both are fully operable and seen on roads. That alone puts them miles ahead of GMC. Also, your thoughts in regards to their autopilot software (your comment being the same as consumer reports) is absolutely ridiculous. It does not matter if it drives flawlessly if it can only do so on certain roads. Even if Tesla's AP is 95% as good as GMC's, Tesla can do it basically anywhere.
Sure, the Hummer EV truly looks AMAZING on paper (excluding the price, and I love it! But it's still only on paper. There are so many EVs that look stunning on paper, and until we see people taking rides in them, the only thing that matters is that there is a push for more EVs.
Again, I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS! But I, and MANY others, are definitely much more excited to see your review when this truck is an actual truck, not just a pretty body.

This is the epitome of excessive American consumerism. This is inaccessible to 95% of the population, it is HORRIBLY inefficient (keep in mind 250 mile range on a hummer needs a much more powerful power train than say a small sedan with a 250 mile train: bigger batteries which are horrible for the environment as is. Why are car manufacturers making electric vehicles that aren t affordable? If we truly want to strive towards an all electric transportation model, stop wasting resources on making over the top vehicles like this that are ultimately worse than its gas guzzling equipment. Sigh.

The only complaint I would say is that the front end sticks out to much. The cool thing about the original hummers where the fact the front wheels had the clearance to stick out. Because of that you could literally climb a wall if you wanted to. I do like the interior great and simple to clean when you get dirt inside.

This is really cool but trucks are getting expensive. I know this is a ultra luxury electric hummer but just in general they re getting more expensive and I think the next thing gm and ford need to do is to just make them cheaper. Just keep it basic and I think they ll sell more in this already dominate truck market

I did not noticed that the vehicle is a Hummer until I saw the Hummer logo. Great vehicle for only 350 Mile range and if you are into looks and just going around town. I would buy it if the battery technology is more advanced than the looks. OR at least have the option of 500 miles range.

you missed the hidden H on the pedals, front bumper, brake lights, front sits, steering wheel, compartment under the side screen, back compartment under the control panel and that's about all I was able to see from this video, can you find more?

I guess this just leaves Chrysler that has Not embraced the coming inevitability of EV's taking over the Entire automobile market. Maybe Fiat is picking up the slack left by Chrysler in the EV market. . Goodbye Chrysler!

The Bronco will be my favorite modern offroader, but this comes in a very close second. The only reason why this is 2nd is because it's a Hummer pickup truck. Once they make an SUV variant, this will be top spot.

I don't see the point of reviewing a prototype. How many production vehicles has even resembled the prototype? None. But Doug gets his views of course (no I did not bother waching this)

Wouldn't it be funny if Hummer eventually morphs into GM's electric environmental brand. God Karen, don't you care about the polar bears? Why didn't you at least get the Hummer version?
