Evaluation
Query: For the typical pickup driver, what would represent a dream truck? Would that automobile be succesful, quick, high-tech, luxurious, cool trying, and/or electrical? And what would such a truck price?
What if one truck was all of these issues, and price about $120,000?
For the file, the 2026 GMC Hummer 3X pickup prices about $120,000, and does issues standard picks easy weren’t made to do—like outrun a Corvette. Actually. Extra on that in a second…
Hummer Historical past
A little bit background: Common Motors dusted off the Hummer title for 2022, this time as a GMC electric-vehicle sub-brand. As soon as derided as an emblem of vehicular waste and extra, Hummer’s return as a clear, electrical lineup of vehicles was clearly meant to vindicate the marque, and to a lesser extent, GM as effectively.
Hummer Lineup
Hummer relaunched with a pickup truck and enormous SUV, each of that are constructed on GM’s “Ultium” structure and assembled on the maker’s Manufacturing facility Zero plant situated in Detroit. The pickup and SUV are very related in design and powertrain availability, although energy specs differ.
The Hummer pickup is greatest thought-about an excessive model of the Chevrolet Silverado EV and GMC Sierra SUV, each of that are mechanically associated to the Hummer, and roughly the identical measurement.
That mentioned, the Hummer pickup boasts significantly extra energy, extra out there off-road gear, and extra luxurious trappings. We’ll be specializing in the pickup at present.
Costs and Trim Ranges
For 2026, GMC affords the Hummer pickup in three trim ranges:
- 2X ($99,895)
- 3X ($107,995)
- Graphite Version (N/A)
The Graphite Version, which options distinctive colour and trim components, is predicted to reach later within the mannequin yr and be priced above the 3X.
Drivetrain
Energy for the Hummer pickup comes from both a dual-motor association (2X) or three-motor setup (3X and Graphite Version). Twin-motor Hummer pickups are rated at 570 horsepower, whereas three-motor examples boast a prodigious 1000 horsepower, with much more optionally out there.
Batteries
Battery choices embrace a regular 180-kWh battery, which delivers between 312 and 318 miles of vary, relying on how the truck is supplied. An optionally available 205-kWh battery extends vary up 381 miles, once more, relying on gear. The optionally available battery additionally brings with it an influence bump on three-motor fashions, elevating the horsepower rely to 1160.
Check Automobile
Shopper Information not too long ago spent per week behind the wheel of a 2026 Hummer 3X Pickup outfitted with the optionally available battery, rolling mattress cowl, and NACS (Tesla) cost adaptor. All informed, our Meteorite Metallic take a look at automotive got here to $118,935, together with vacation spot cost.
Earlier than we leap into our common evaluation, there are two issues in regards to the Hummer Pickup any shopper on this class must know up entrance: It’s odd to look out from, and it’s powerful to leap into.
Trying Out
The unique Hummer design—going approach again—included a slender glass space that hampered outward visibility. The brand new Hummer EV pays tribute to that look, although the overall glass space is now extra beneficiant. The windshield of the brand new Hummer is fastened in a really upright place nonetheless, compromising considerably the view outward, and in addition putting the motive force nearer to the glass. This example is briefly a bit of disorienting, although some drivers could discover getting used to the setup takes a bit of time. That mentioned, we acclimated simply to this association throughout our take a look at week.
Leaping In
Because of its giant wheels and tires, and beneficiant off-road accommodating floor clearance, the Hummer Pickup is a chore to enter and exit. Youthful and extra nimble drivers and passengers could not thoughts, however a few of our testers discovered the every day climb into the Hummer tiresome. Whereas this might be a difficulty for older passengers, we suspect most Hummer homeowners will discover the climb a part of this automobile’s attraction.
Cabin
Having climbed into the cabin, drivers and friends will discover a surplus of passenger house and really comfy seating lodging. The cabin seems recent and trendy, and is completed in engaging, high-end supplies, although maybe not fairly $120,000 excessive finish. That mentioned, the Hummer Pickup inside is heat and welcoming.
Infotainment
Curiously, the Hummer doesn’t make use of a single display screen which incorporates each the instrument panel and center-console touchscreen—a factor which has turn into very fashionable, particularly in electrical automobiles—and as an alternative goes with two screens, each of that are straightforward to learn.
Most features are accessed through the touchscreen, with the first local weather controls situated in a band under the display screen. We discovered entry to the most-used operations typically straightforward and uncomplicated.
Energy and Efficiency
Underway, the Hummer impresses. With greater than 1000 horsepower on faucet, the large electrical pickup launches—easily—from a cease, and when pressed, will attain 60 mph in simply 3.0 seconds, in accordance with GMC. For comparability, a brand-new base Corvette will attain 60 mph in 3.0-3.3 seconds. What impresses most in regards to the out there energy is how easily the Hummer goes about its enterprise in routine driving. It’s the very definition of a “sleeper.”
Journey and Dealing with
On the highway the Hummer feels strong, with luxury-sedan experience high quality and spectacular quietness. Dealing with can be noteworthy. Regardless of the Hummer’s substantial mass, it takes corners with confidence, and feels sporty within the course of. Additionally, due to the truck’s Digital 4-Wheel Steer system, it maneuvers by means of tight areas and parking garages with nearly ridiculous ease.
Snow Efficiency
As luck would have it, the Hummer’s time with Shopper Information coincided with a big snow occasion. We’re joyful to report that this large EV shouldn’t be troubled by deep snow or vital drifts. Snowbelters, take be aware.
4-Wheel Steering
An fascinating be aware in regards to the Hummer’s 4-wheel steering system: Software program updates to the system had been carried out for 2026, enhancing the large truck’s capacity to execute tight turns. As a result of the updates don’t embrace {hardware}, GMC is ready to improve 2022-2025 Hummer fashions with the identical updates, through an over-the-air (OTA) obtain. There is no such thing as a cost for the improve.
Worth
Cadillac as soon as constructed a pickup truck. It was a variant of the Escalade SUV dubbed EXT. The plush pickup was provided between 2002 and 2013, and was arguably pickup-truck succesful whereas additionally being over-the-top luxurious.
The Hummer Pickup picks up the EXT mantle, and expands on it with better energy, higher dealing with, and far improved power effectivity. At $120,000 effectively outfitted, the Hummer is an enormous dedication, however there’s large payoff when you benefit from the what this loopy truck brings to the desk. For us, we’re glad that GMC selected to shed the Hummer’s paramilitary design for one thing cleaner and extra trendy.
And as for reminiscences of the militaristic, gas-sucking Hummers of days passed by—let these reminiscences fade away. Hummer has redeemed itself.
