General Motors apparently decided the company needed to prove EVs were cool by creating a flagship that goes beyond what any consumer needs. The world got the GMC Hummer EV as both a pickup truck and an SUV.

A showcase for the brand’s Ultium electric vehicle battery and architecture tool set, the GMC Hummer EV provides excess for buyers in every conceivable way.

It has cartoon-like proportions, supercar-like speed, usable range, and a plush ride. But it’s wildly inefficient, weighs more than a heavy-duty pickup, has some software glitches in a vehicle that’s defined by its software, and sports some cheap interior materials despite the extreme price tag.

It’s a rolling contradiction.

Here are the pros and cons of the 2024 GMC Hummer EV SUV after spending a week hauling the kids to activities, running errands, and WTFing (Watts To Freedoming, don’t be silly).

Just like America, the 2024 GMC Hummer EV SUV is completely over the top. It’s too much of everything and not enough of certain things—like restraint—to make it a fit for mainstream buyers. For the people who buy this electric SUV, it’s a standout in every way, for better, worse, and everything in between.
