At last! An electric Hummer
MOTORS CARS | NOVEMBER 24, 2021

A few lucky new Hummer EV owners are going to need very big Christmas trees this year.
GMC plans to begin deliveries of its eagerly anticipated all-electric supertruck next month, just in time for the holidays, reports Autoblog. Additionally, the Detroit automaker has revealed that its EV will have a range of 329 miles.
The two exciting pieces of news were delivered during a conference call held by GMC head Duncan Aldred on Tuesday, according to the website. The first announcement means that GMC will be able to deliver its new EV a little over a year after its debut. That’s a rather impressive feat considering all the supply chain issues, particularly the superconductor chip shortage, that have struck the auto industry over the last year. We don’t know how many customers can expect to get the new Hummer next month, but each of them will be receiving the Edition 1 variant. That version makes up over 80 percent of the 125,000 pre-orders the company has taken—or roughly 100,000.
