This electric SUV offers two spacious rows of seating for five passengers, with durable materials and premium accents that reflect the vehicle’s adventurous character. The cockpit is oriented toward the driver, with intuitive displays and controls that enhance the overall driving experience.

Interior Color Options

Each theme combines durable surfaces with unique trim elements inspired by lunar landscapes and space exploration—an appropriate aesthetic for a vehicle pushing the limits of EV capability. Available interior themes for the GMC HUMMER EV SUV include:

• Velocity Ember
• Granite Drift
• Stealth Eclipse

Passenger Space

Interior space in the HUMMER EV SUV is designed to provide comfortable seating for both rows of passengers:

• Front row headroom: 42.48 inches
• Front row legroom: 45.57 inches
• Second row headroom: 38.4 inches

Cargo Capacity

Despite its advanced electric architecture, the GMC HUMMER EV SUV remains highly practical for hauling gear and luggage. The eTrunk is particularly useful for storing charging equipment, tools, or outdoor gear while keeping the rear cargo area free for passengers or larger cargo.

Cargo storage includes:

• 36.3 cubic feet behind the second row
• 81.3 cubic feet with rear seats folded
• 11.3 cubic feet of front storage in the Power eTrunk®

The Infinity Roof system provides a unique open-air driving experience. Four removable Transparent Sky Panels allow natural light into the cabin while protecting occupants from the elements. When removed, the roof panels can be stored in the vehicle, creating a distinctive open-top EV SUV experience rarely found in modern electric vehicles.

Exterior Design and Off-Road Features

The exterior design of the 2026 GMC HUMMER EV SUV reflects the vehicle’s bold character with a squared-off body design and LED lighting signatures. With a commanding stance and rugged proportions, the HUMMER EV stands out among both electric vehicles and traditional SUVs.

Built on a 126.7-inch wheelbase, the vehicle maintains stability across uneven terrain while offering a wide footprint for improved control.

Key exterior measurements include:

• Approximately 81 inches in height (Normal Mode with roof rack)
• 86.5 inches wide without mirrors

The wide stance enhances stability when driving off-road or towing cargo, while the advanced Four-Wheel Steer system reduces the turning diameter to approximately 35.4 feet, significantly improving maneuverability in tight spaces.

POWER eTrunk® and Rear Gate Functionality

The Power eTrunk® at the front of the vehicle provides 11.3 cubic feet of additional storage and includes:

• Integrated cargo lighting
• 12-volt power outlet
• Four cargo D-rings for securing equipment

At the rear, the vehicle features a Power Rear Gate that can be opened using the key fob or exterior button. The Power Rear Drop Glass lowers independently, improving airflow during open-air driving and simplifying cargo access.

These thoughtful design features enhance everyday practicality while maintaining the rugged character expected from a GMC HUMMER EV.

Wheels and Off-Road Hardware

The HUMMER EV SUV is engineered to handle extreme terrain while remaining stable on paved roads. Wheel designs vary by trim: the EV SUV 3X features 22-inch Premium Painted Aluminum wheels, while the EV SUV 2X is equipped with 22-inch Gloss-Black Painted Aluminum wheels.

An advanced suspension system provides up to 13 inches of travel, helping absorb bumps and obstacles during off-road driving. Additional hardware, such as protective skid plates, integrated tow hooks, and optimized approach, breakover, and departure angles, further enhances trail capability. When extra clearance is needed, Extract Mode® can temporarily raise the suspension by approximately six inches to help the SUV navigate rocks, water crossings, or deep ruts.

Advanced Drive Systems and Off-Road Technology

The GMC HUMMER EV integrates several innovative technologies that enhance mobility on difficult terrain.

• Four-Wheel Steer: All four wheels can turn, dramatically improving maneuverability. This system reduces the turning circle to approximately 35.4 feet, allowing the large SUV to navigate tight trails or crowded parking lots.
• CrabWalk®: One of the most distinctive HUMMER EV features, CrabWalk allows the rear wheels to turn in the same direction as the front wheels at low speeds. This enables diagonal movement, making it easier to reposition the vehicle on narrow trails.
• King Crab Mode: This feature increases rear-wheel articulation for even tighter maneuvering in challenging environments.
• Extract Mode®: The Air Ride Adaptive Suspension can lift the vehicle approximately six inches, helping the SUV clear large obstacles.

Regenerative Braking Systems

The HUMMER EV SUV also incorporates energy-saving technology to improve overall driving efficiency. Regen On Demand® allows drivers to pull a steering-wheel paddle to slow the vehicle, capture energy, and send it back to the battery.

One-Pedal Driving further enhances efficiency by allowing the driver to accelerate and decelerate with a single pedal, maximizing regenerative braking during everyday city driving.

These systems help extend electric driving range while delivering a smooth, controlled driving experience.
