The 2022 GMC Hummer EV, is this the best Hummer of all time for regular use ? Lets take a look together.

General Motors is blunt about it. The 2022 GMC Hummer EV, a full-size electric pickup, raced from computer screens to production at mach speed to compete with plans by Tesla, Rivian, and others to build an electric trucks of their own.

GMC Hummer EV chief engineer Al Oppenheiser, who spent most of his career developing Camaros, said 20 months ago he was asked by GM leadership to bring Camaro charisma to the electric vehicle program to give it an adrenaline shot to better combat the 2021 Tesla Cybertruck and 2021 Rivian R1T, both of which had created a lot of buzz. (Not to be outdone, Ford is developing an electric F-150.) Oppenheiser's work began in April 2019 on a full-size truck GM wanted in production in the fall of 2021. In other words, lop about two years off GM's normal development time. It became known as Project O for "obtainium," a play on "unobtainium," an internal phrase/excuse used by teams at GM when presented with seemingly impossible tasks.
