Not long after the very first example of the revived and completely electric 2022 Hummer EV pickup went for $2.5 million at a charity auction, General Motors has fully revealed the family-hauling version of the buzzy behemoth.
The GMC Hummer EV SUV will join the truck in 2023 as a 2024 model year. Because of the significantly shorter wheelbase—down to 126.7 inches from 135.6 inches in the pickup—the double-stacked Ultium battery pack contains only 20 modules instead of 24.Â

That means the unit’s output to the three-motor four-wheel drive system is reduced from the bonkers 1,000-horsepower rating to “only” 830 horses, as Car and Driver notes. GM estimates it’ll still hit 60 mph in 3.5 seconds, deliver up to 11,500 pound-feet of torque, and go for 300 miles on a single charge.Â

But what’s lost in raw power is gained in maneuverability. Thanks to an innovative 4-Wheel Steer system—the same feature that allows for diagonal movement in CrabWalk mode—the Hummer’s turning radius measures a best-in-class 35.4 feet.Â

GM cheekily noted in its press materials that those turns are tighter a Mustang Mach-E’s, despite the electric pony’s shorter 117-inch wheelbase.Â

The 2024 Hummer EV SUV also debuts new features that weren’t previously seen on the pickup. Satellite-rendered trail mapping promises to making off-the-path exploration easier, while an optional Power Station generator offers significant external powering capabilities for heavy-duty tools, camping equipment, or even another electric vehicle. Â

There’s also an exclusive new Moonshot Green Matte exterior color. And yes, those awesome removable Sky Panels are retained to allow for open-top excursions.Â

The 2024 GMC Hummer EV SUV will arrive in early 2023 with a starting price of $105,595 for the all-out First Edition. Like the pickup, other variants will sell in subsequent years for as low as $79,995.Â
