But since the brand new all-electric truck is just a few months into delivery, road tests by drivers and car reviewers are still in the works. Time will tell whether this SUV delivers on driving range.
The top driving range for the GMC Hummer EV is estimated at 329 miles. This is the range for the Edition 1 trim, the only trim that will be available at launch.
This impressive range is due to the Hummer’s 200.0 kWh battery, a spec that almost pales in comparison to the truck’s 1000-hp electric motor.
As far as EV driving ranges go, 329 miles is pretty impressive—especially for a monster like the Hummer. With this range, you could drive 60 miles a day, 5 days a week on a single charge—and still have some driving range left over!
2022 GMC Hummer EV charging time and fuel economy
Hummer EV drivers will have no complaints here either. If you’re in a rush, DC Fast Charging will have you covered. The 800-volt electrical architecture paired with 350-kilowatt fast-charging capability allows the truck to gain 100 miles of driving range in 10 minutes, according to GMC.
For standard overnight charges, Level 2 is the most common charging speed, delivering up to 16 miles of range per hour of charging.
Once the Hummer EV is available, road tests will verify if these estimates deliver.
How does the GMC Hummer EV compare to its competitors?
If you are in the market for top-tier luxury, the Hummer EV is the way to go—it is far and away the most expensive EV truck option of its type. The Hummer EV’s driving range is comparable with the competition (all listed except the Ford F-150 Lightning), but its charging time is significantly longer than that of competitors.
The Hummer EV ties with the Rivian R1T in beating the competition with a 3-second 0-60 time, making it wildly quick for even a compact EV, let alone a big truck.
When it comes down to the specs, you might be better off getting a Rivian R1T, which carries a similar luxury air but costs $30,000 less. But, if you want to get in on the reemergence of Hummer in the truck and SUV market, this could be the one for you.
