1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:07,359 whoever said that EV is needed to be econscious What If instead you embraced 2 00:00:04,279 --> 00:00:09,559 electricity just to get more more torque 3 00:00:07,359 --> 00:00:13,839 more weight more capabilities and more children that you can't see right here 4 00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:18,400 this right here is the Hummer EV and holy frig I was thinking that we would 5 00:00:15,679 --> 00:00:21,519 just hate on this but I I kind of love it it's it's pretty great the first 6 00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:30,039 thing you will notice about the Hummer EV is that it is freaking massive this 7 00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:32,279 thing is 5 1/2 M long 2.2 M wide and 8 00:00:30,039 --> 00:00:36,800 just everything about it the scale is insane the first time that I drove it 9 00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:41,000 like you you know it's going to be large just look at it but it's something else 10 00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:47,480 when you pass an F250 and you see its roof it recalibrates your idea of what 11 00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:52,320 is large I'm going into the frunk you can see that we have plenty of space in 12 00:00:49,199 --> 00:00:54,760 here for your groceries LT bag doesn't 13 00:00:52,320 --> 00:01:01,199 even start to fill it but what we also have in here are some little bags look 14 00:00:58,239 --> 00:01:07,400 at these these bags are here because this isn't just a pickup truck but it is 15 00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:10,759 also a convertible now unlike the Mazda 16 00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:13,720 Miata which took us what like 3 and 1/2 17 00:01:10,759 --> 00:01:18,520 seconds to get the soft top down this one takes a little bit 18 00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:24,040 longer I guess technically it is a target top but you can come in here undo 19 00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:30,280 these two handles give it a little pushing look at that we now have a roof 20 00:01:27,320 --> 00:01:36,600 panel which is a bit of plastic and it is off now you take your roof panel put 21 00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:40,560 it into the bag like so give it a little 22 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:43,320 zip up and then do that three more 23 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:47,840 times but you're not done yet now you can go into your glove box or maybe a 24 00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:53,560 little spot in the trunk and get out your ratchet which you can use to undo 25 00:01:50,399 --> 00:01:57,360 these four bolts right here which allows 26 00:01:53,560 --> 00:02:00,360 us to remove this piece right 27 00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:03,159 here right here right 28 00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:03,159 here 29 00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:12,000 right and there is nothing over top of you Belle says it's not worth the effort 30 00:02:08,879 --> 00:02:17,319 he's wrong this is sick like that looks 31 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:20,000 so bad now where exactly this goes uh I 32 00:02:17,319 --> 00:02:24,599 don't really know I watched a tutorial and they had a little spot down 33 00:02:21,959 --> 00:02:30,519 underneath the seats right here but we don't have the like molded plastic piece 34 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:32,720 where this and those nuts went so uh 35 00:02:30,519 --> 00:02:37,239 there there there you go with that incredibly simple roof removal process 36 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:40,640 done we can look at the rest of the car first thing we have these little lights 37 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:44,200 right here they were quite an expensive option and they do not give off a whole 38 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:49,720 lot of light you have to go into offer menu aux auxiliary one to turn these on 39 00:02:47,920 --> 00:02:55,920 it took me a long time to figure that one out down below we have 305 tires 40 00:02:53,120 --> 00:03:01,200 wrapping 18in rims they are freaking massive and very loud coming back here 41 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:07,040 it'll take a while we can see the charger this thing right here is on an 42 00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:09,879 800 volt architecture and it is freaking 43 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:13,840 massive look from here to here is all battery and that's because this is I 44 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:20,920 believe the largest battery in an electric vehicle on the market it is 45 00:03:16,959 --> 00:03:23,760 248 kwatt hours 212 of which you can 46 00:03:20,920 --> 00:03:31,920 actually use that results in 63 km of range now that said it takes a 47 00:03:29,439 --> 00:03:39,480 long long time to charge this thing it does 350 Kow charging but when you have 48 00:03:35,959 --> 00:03:41,400 that many kilowatt hours of battery man 49 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:47,360 I had this plugged in for 8 hours yesterday on level two it did not go all 50 00:03:44,879 --> 00:03:52,200 the way up to fully charged from 72% it's 51 00:03:49,799 --> 00:03:59,079 insane moving around to the back you can see that we have a 5ot bed here but that 52 00:03:55,439 --> 00:04:03,840 is not all the bed comes down then right 53 00:03:59,079 --> 00:04:05,879 here we have another bit and another bit 54 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:11,519 and part of the Omega package which is part of the 55 00:04:07,879 --> 00:04:14,280 $41,000 worth of options on this we get 56 00:04:11,519 --> 00:04:21,249 a Bluetooth speaker this thing is from kicker it is 100 wats it sounds kind of 57 00:04:22,199 --> 00:04:31,120 bad but it is loud wow what a hun chunk 58 00:04:26,759 --> 00:04:32,919 back here we also have 120 volt a AC and 59 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:37,919 some mounting spots if you want to have a spare tire because it does not go 60 00:04:36,039 --> 00:04:43,039 underneath this for some reason another thing that's part of our Omega package 61 00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:45,440 is this absolutely incredible Neptune 62 00:04:43,039 --> 00:04:50,680 blue matte finish on here as well as like black Hummer logos and stuff it 63 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:54,560 does look sick and apparently it is very difficult to care for now of course I 64 00:04:53,120 --> 00:05:01,759 know what you have been thinking this entire time it's so close to the ground 65 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:07,360 I could really use an extra 6 in by putting in extract mode you can go from 66 00:05:04,280 --> 00:05:11,320 10.1 in of ground clearance all the way 67 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:13,199 up to 16 this does completely ruin the 68 00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:18,919 ride quality and also you're not allowed to go more than 20 km per hour when 69 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:21,280 you're in this mode but that is a lot of 70 00:05:18,919 --> 00:05:23,680 ground clearance it also has locking front and rear differentials and it's 71 00:05:22,840 --> 00:05:29,240 not DLC hopping into the rear seat we have 72 00:05:26,919 --> 00:05:36,080 loads of storage back here we've got our cuple holders storage there some storage 73 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:39,560 right here bunch of space underneath the 74 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:41,800 seats as well as a subwoofer right here 75 00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:46,840 and of course functionally infinite Headroom sitting back here it is really 76 00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:51,280 quite comfortable I have loads of space in every single Direction 77 00:05:49,280 --> 00:05:57,240 unsurprisingly and it's also quite nicely equipped we have our rear climate 78 00:05:53,280 --> 00:05:59,960 usba USBC 120 volt back here another 79 00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:06,880 little storage space and overall it's is pretty comfy hopping into the driver's 80 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:10,520 seat this is an excellent spot to be the 81 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:12,880 whole theme of this is just so well 82 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:17,440 executed and it doesn't hamper the usability either we have just a whole 83 00:06:15,319 --> 00:06:22,639 bunch of physical controls that do stuff like your diff locks to your climate 84 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:25,319 controls to your seat controls it is all 85 00:06:22,639 --> 00:06:30,759 very well done and also the infotainment is shockingly well put together you can 86 00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:34,800 go back to the main menu and it'll still have your song over here or your 87 00:06:32,599 --> 00:06:39,880 navigation if you're doing that it's all pretty fast and they worked with epic 88 00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:42,120 games to come up with these hilarious 89 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:47,240 animations anytime that you do stuff like look at this bam truck comes out 90 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:53,280 there we have a whole bunch of drones hell yeah truck going over the terrain 91 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:56,400 it is also completely extra in a way 92 00:06:53,280 --> 00:06:59,120 that I adore you really do have to stop 93 00:06:56,400 --> 00:07:04,160 thinking of this as like a vehicle and think of it more as like an exotic car 94 00:07:01,639 --> 00:07:10,599 this is much closer to like a Ferrari than a model y because everything is 95 00:07:06,879 --> 00:07:12,599 just so stupid I love it on our mode 96 00:07:10,599 --> 00:07:18,039 button here you can also select your driving mode on the right raise or lower 97 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:22,919 the ride height by pressing up and down and select what kind of rear wheel steer 98 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:27,639 you want by pressing this button you can either turn it on off or if you hold it 99 00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:32,400 you can get into crab walk mode well crabwalk mode allows is for 100 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:38,440 the front and rear wheels to turn in the same direction which allows us to go 101 00:07:34,599 --> 00:07:40,479 sideways into the segue to our sponsor 102 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:45,479 manscaped thanks to manscape for sponsoring this video as a famous member 103 00:07:42,599 --> 00:07:50,520 used to say I love

feelings ever we are currently going 112 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:31,039 straight but we are what like 10° pointed that way it is hilarious it is 113 00:08:28,199 --> 00:08:36,839 one of the oddest feelings ever now it isn't exactly practical I 114 00:08:34,839 --> 00:08:42,039 did have a little bit of a trip in the ionic 5 at CES that had proper actual 115 00:08:40,479 --> 00:08:46,519 crab walking that allowed you to do things like Park in little spots I tried 116 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:50,160 to use crab walking to parallel park downtown and it went horribly people 117 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:56,560 were just looking being like what is this guy doing and now in 118 00:08:53,720 --> 00:09:01,760 terrain mode the rear steer is so aggressive up to 10° that it feels feels 119 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:06,600 like you are just drifting around a parking lot it is 120 00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:10,680 hilarious the best thing about it is that this is actually an incredibly 121 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:18,640 Nimble little car well an incredibly Nimble fing massive car has a turning 122 00:09:13,839 --> 00:09:22,079 radius of 11.3 M which is really quite 123 00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:25,839 good for comparison the ionic 5n had a 124 00:09:22,079 --> 00:09:28,800 12 1/2 M turning radius and despite this 125 00:09:25,839 --> 00:09:34,560 vehicle being so freaking huge it is notice easier to park especially when 126 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:40,320 combined with this excellent 360 camera it is shockingly easy to put in a 127 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:43,240 parking spot even though it is massive 128 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:48,160 speaking of the cameras this is the most complete camera in that I've ever seen 129 00:09:45,519 --> 00:09:53,920 in a car there are 18 of them and you don't just have the full 360 but you 130 00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:56,519 also have underneath it like look at 131 00:09:53,920 --> 00:10:01,079 that you can see both of your wheels here front and back so if there's a 132 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:05,160 really difficult obstacle that you can go over you can make sure that you don't 133 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:09,720 bang your de off a rock by just simply looking at it right here enough screwing 134 00:10:07,399 --> 00:10:15,200 around in the parking lot though we need to give this thing a launch what you do 135 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:19,279 is you double tap traction control off 136 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:22,600 which brings up here watts to Freedom or 137 00:10:19,279 --> 00:10:25,800 WTF mode this right here lowers the 138 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:29,320 vehicle and then when it is ready you 139 00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:31,240 get to launch it with my freedom armed I 140 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:36,240 I can do my foot all the way on the brake all the way on the gas and 141 00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:57,040 holy this thing despite being over 9,000 142 00:10:54,040 --> 00:11:00,440 lb has a 0 to 60 of 143 00:10:57,040 --> 00:11:04,360 3.3 seconds that is accomplished with 144 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:07,600 1,000 horsepower and 12200 ftlb of 145 00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:10,720 torque and oh my God this thing should 146 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:12,240 not move like it does we can just be 147 00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:19,480 going here sorry Andrew it is 148 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:22,760 manical now if you watch as we 149 00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:24,560 go I really need to turn to the left 150 00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:29,920 because when you floor it in this it actively tries to put you into the ditch 151 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:34,279 it is hilarious and unlike the acceleration in any other EV in most of 152 00:11:32,959 --> 00:11:41,079 them it's like you're getting pushed back into the seat but this thing squats 153 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:44,120 so far back that it's much more like you 154 00:11:41,079 --> 00:11:46,120 getting cued by the seats as it just 155 00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:51,279 flies back and the people on the ISS are like G as your high beams blind 156 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:55,720 them man this is the first time that I've driven with the top off this is 157 00:11:54,000 --> 00:12:01,880 sick sadly though we're going to have to put it back on because all terrain tires 158 00:11:58,680 --> 00:12:01,880 no roof it's really 159 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:16,120 loud now that we have usable audio we can talk about cornering which um it 160 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:20,000 might surprise you guys but throwing 161 00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:23,519 9200 lb of machine into a corner does 162 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:27,079 not result in the best handling ever 163 00:12:23,519 --> 00:12:31,040 this is the very first time that our 164 00:12:27,079 --> 00:12:35,560 F-150 camera car was difficult to keep 165 00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:38,199 up with in one of our cars it is so much 166 00:12:35,560 --> 00:12:43,839 body roll also when you're driving around town or at like medium speed 167 00:12:40,680 --> 00:12:45,920 roads like we're going 75 right now it's 168 00:12:43,839 --> 00:12:53,160 pretty okay but once you hop onto the highway and get going 110 120 it becomes 169 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:55,800 kind of concerning pretty quick it turns 170 00:12:53,160 --> 00:13:00,639 out that it's not very relaxing on the highway if you have cars on either side 171 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:04,760 when your vehicle takes off an entire Lane now what does help in that 172 00:13:02,959 --> 00:13:09,720 situation is the fact that this does have GM super cruise I maintain that 173 00:13:06,959 --> 00:13:15,360 that is the absolute best driver assistant because it's actually mapped 174 00:13:12,079 --> 00:13:17,199 the roads and it actually is trustworthy 175 00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:24,720 unlike many others where you're kind of like I think it's doing the right thing 176 00:13:21,279 --> 00:13:26,279 but overall on the highway bad time 177 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:33,240 especially when you combine that with just how loud these allterrain tires are 178 00:13:29,639 --> 00:13:34,880 it is not a super luxurious experience 179 00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:39,480 speaking of which there are some luxuries that you would expect for the 180 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:45,199 price of this car that you don't quite get the one that I want the most is 181 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:49,079 massage seats which does feel kind of 182 00:13:45,199 --> 00:13:52,480 strange to ask for but at the same time 183 00:13:49,079 --> 00:13:54,240 it's expensive it is expensive one thing 184 00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:59,720 that is very fortunate though is that if you want to drown out that tire noise 185 00:13:56,639 --> 00:14:04,360 you very easily can with the excellent 186 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:07,079 sound system in here play crab Rave in 187 00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:14,240 here we have the 14 speaker Bose sound system and it is pretty darn good it has 188 00:14:10,759 --> 00:14:16,600 extension down to 30 htz and it is a 189 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:23,480 little bit on the warm side there's a bit of a dip from 600 HZ to 10K but that 190 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:26,279 said it sounds really good in the driver 191 00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:32,480 mode you get very good staging you have the vocals right there in the center and 192 00:14:29,199 --> 00:14:39,680 overall it just 193 00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:45,600 bumped so overall then the Hummer EV I 194 00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:52,199 think this thing is exceptional it is so ridiculous it just 195 00:14:49,839 --> 00:14:58,480 makes me giggle nothing gives you more than this nothing weighs more is faster 196 00:14:55,839 --> 00:15:03,600 and do you know what also is more the price 197 00:14:59,880 --> 00:15:06,720 this one that we have here with its 198 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:08,800 $41,000 of optional accessories comes in 199 00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:14,079 at $21,000 200 00:15:10,519 --> 00:15:16,199 Canadian that's a lot of money have are 201 00:15:14,079 --> 00:15:19,519 you aware how much money that is that is a lot of 202 00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:24,600 money but like what else are you going to buy a cyber truck and have your 203 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:29,440 payload just fall off with the hitch no this right here will actually tow 1,200 204 00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:35,079 lb in the 2X or this one with all of the options and stuff only gets 7500 but 205 00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:40,920 that still is quite a bit and I at least trust it if I am honest I came into this 206 00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:46,360 expecting to just dunk on this thinking it was incredibly stupid and it is it is 207 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:52,600 the stupidest vehicle I have ever been in but that was very clearly the goal 208 00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:57,000 from the beginning and GMC has executed 209 00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:59,600 it perfectly this thing is absolutely 210 00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:03,839 hilarious and I love it just like I love you hugee
