GMC officials didn’t state how many units of the Hummer EV sold out but demand for the super truck greatly exceeded expectations. In addition, if buyers were to cancel their orders there is still a waitlist of thousands of customers ready to take their spot.

Performance
Even though the 2022 GMC Hummer EV Edition 1 sold out let’s go over it’s crazy specs. It is powered by a three-motor propulsion system that GM estimates has a best-in-class 1,000 horsepower and 11,500 lb-ft of torque. Using the “Watts to Freedom” launch control system, the giant super truck can achieve a 0-60 mph time of 3.0 seconds. In addition, the propulsion system has a 24-module, double-stacked Ultium battery. 800-volt DC public fast charging compatibility with up to 350 kW allows for nearly 100 miles of range in 10 minutes of charging. GM also estimates the Hummer EV will have a 350+ miles of range on a full charge.
Off-Roading
Included in the price of the 2022 GMC Hummer EV Edition 1 is the Extreme Off-Road Package. It comes with 18-inch wheels and 35-inch-OD Goodyear Wrangler Territory MT tires. It’s specs also include under body armor, rock sliders, underbody cameras, and more. In addition, it has adaptive air suspension with Extract Mode that can raise the Hummer EV by 6 inches. That enables it to navigate extreme off-road conditions such as clearing boulders or fording water. Furthermore, it has a segment-exclusive 4 Wheel Steer with CrabWalk. That allows the front and rear wheels to steer in the same angle at low speeds for even greater maneuverability.
Price and Release Date
The electric super truck carries a price tag of $112,595. As we already mentioned, initial production units for the GMC Hummer EV sold out in 10 minutes. Production will begin late 2021 with the first models arriving early 2022.
