WEBVTT 00:00:00.040 --> 00:00:07.359 whoever said that EV is needed to be econscious What If instead you embraced 00:00:04.279 --> 00:00:09.559 electricity just to get more more torque 00:00:07.359 --> 00:00:13.839 more weight more capabilities and more children that you can't see right here 00:00:12.440 --> 00:00:18.400 this right here is the Hummer EV and holy frig I was thinking that we would 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 00:00:20.320 --> 00:00:30.039 thing you will notice about the Hummer EV is that it is freaking massive this 00:00:24.640 --> 00:00:32.279 thing is 5 1/2 M long 2.2 M wide and 00:00:30.039 --> 00:00:36.800 just everything about it the scale is insane the first time that I drove it 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 00:00:38.640 --> 00:00:47.480 when you pass an F250 and you see its roof it recalibrates your idea of what 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 00:00:49.199 --> 00:00:54.760 here for your groceries LT bag doesn't 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 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 00:01:04.040 --> 00:01:10.759 also a convertible now unlike the Mazda 00:01:07.400 --> 00:01:13.720 Miata which took us what like 3 and 1/2 00:01:10.759 --> 00:01:18.520 seconds to get the soft top down this one takes a little bit 00:01:16.040 --> 00:01:24.040 longer I guess technically it is a target top but you can come in here undo 00:01:21.640 --> 00:01:30.280 these two handles give it a little pushing look at that we now have a roof 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 00:01:33.360 --> 00:01:40.560 it into the bag like so give it a little 00:01:36.600 --> 00:01:43.320 zip up and then do that three more 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 00:01:45.920 --> 00:01:53.560 little spot in the trunk and get out your ratchet which you can use to undo 00:01:50.399 --> 00:01:57.360 these four bolts right here which allows 00:01:53.560 --> 00:02:00.360 us to remove this piece right 00:01:57.360 --> 00:02:03.159 here right here right 00:02:00.360 --> 00:02:03.159 here 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 00:02:08.879 --> 00:02:17.319 he's wrong this is sick like that looks 00:02:12.000 --> 00:02:20.000 so bad now where exactly this goes uh I 00:02:17.319 --> 00:02:24.599 don't really know I watched a tutorial and they had a little spot down 00:02:21.959 --> 00:02:30.519 underneath the seats right here but we don't have the like molded plastic piece 00:02:27.040 --> 00:02:32.720 where this and those nuts went so uh 00:02:30.519 --> 00:02:37.239 there there there you go with that incredibly simple roof removal process 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 00:02:38.720 --> 00:02:44.200 right here they were quite an expensive option and they do not give off a whole 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 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 00:02:53.120 --> 00:03:01.200 wrapping 18in rims they are freaking massive and very loud coming back here 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 00:03:03.280 --> 00:03:09.879 800 volt architecture and it is freaking 00:03:07.040 --> 00:03:13.840 massive look from here to here is all battery and that's because this is I 00:03:11.560 --> 00:03:20.920 believe the largest battery in an electric vehicle on the market it is 00:03:16.959 --> 00:03:23.760 248 kwatt hours 212 of which you can 00:03:20.920 --> 00:03:31.920 actually use that results in 63 km of range now that said it takes a 00:03:29.439 --> 00:03:39.480 long long time to charge this thing it does 350 Kow charging but when you have 00:03:35.959 --> 00:03:41.400 that many kilowatt hours of battery man 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 00:03:44.879 --> 00:03:52.200 the way up to fully charged from 72% it's 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 00:03:55.439 --> 00:04:03.840 is not all the bed comes down then right 00:03:59.079 --> 00:04:05.879 here we have another bit and another bit 00:04:03.840 --> 00:04:11.519 and part of the Omega package which is part of the 00:04:07.879 --> 00:04:14.280 $41,000 worth of options on this we get 00:04:11.519 --> 00:04:21.249 a Bluetooth speaker this thing is from kicker it is 100 wats it sounds kind of 00:04:22.199 --> 00:04:31.120 bad but it is loud wow what a hun chunk 00:04:26.759 --> 00:04:32.919 back here we also have 120 volt a AC and 00:04:31.120 --> 00:04:37.919 some mounting spots if you want to have a spare tire because it does not go 00:04:36.039 --> 00:04:43.039 underneath this for some reason another thing that's part of our Omega package 00:04:39.960 --> 00:04:45.440 is this absolutely incredible Neptune 00:04:43.039 --> 00:04:50.680 blue matte finish on here as well as like black Hummer logos and stuff it 00:04:47.800 --> 00:04:54.560 does look sick and apparently it is very difficult to care for now of course I 00:04:53.120 --> 00:05:01.759 know what you have been thinking this entire time it's so close to the ground 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 00:05:04.280 --> 00:05:11.320 10.1 in of ground clearance all the way 00:05:07.360 --> 00:05:13.199 up to 16 this does completely ruin the 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 00:05:15.400 --> 00:05:21.280 you're in this mode but that is a lot of 00:05:18.919 --> 00:05:23.680 ground clearance it also has locking front and rear differentials and it's 00:05:22.840 --> 00:05:29.240 not DLC hopping into the rear seat we have 00:05:26.919 --> 00:05:36.080 loads of storage back here we've got our cuple holders storage there some storage 00:05:32.880 --> 00:05:39.560 right here bunch of space underneath the 00:05:36.080 --> 00:05:41.800 seats as well as a subwoofer right here 00:05:39.560 --> 00:05:46.840 and of course functionally infinite Headroom sitting back here it is really 00:05:44.080 --> 00:05:51.280 quite comfortable I have loads of space in every single Direction 00:05:49.280 --> 00:05:57.240 unsurprisingly and it's also quite nicely equipped we have our rear climate 00:05:53.280 --> 00:05:59.960 usba USBC 120 volt back here another 00:05:57.240 --> 00:06:06.880 little storage space and overall it's is pretty comfy hopping into the driver's 00:06:02.680 --> 00:06:10.520 seat this is an excellent spot to be the 00:06:06.880 --> 00:06:12.880 whole theme of this is just so well 00:06:10.520 --> 00:06:17.440 executed and it doesn't hamper the usability either we have just a whole 00:06:15.319 --> 00:06:22.639 bunch of physical controls that do stuff like your diff locks to your climate 00:06:19.360 --> 00:06:25.319 controls to your seat controls it is all 00:06:22.639 --> 00:06:30.759 very well done and also the infotainment is shockingly well put together you can 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 00:06:32.599 --> 00:06:39.880 navigation if you're doing that it's all pretty fast and they worked with epic 00:06:36.680 --> 00:06:42.120 games to come up with these hilarious 00:06:39.880 --> 00:06:47.240 animations anytime that you do stuff like look at this bam truck comes out 00:06:45.120 --> 00:06:53.280 there we have a whole bunch of drones hell yeah truck going over the terrain 00:06:50.240 --> 00:06:56.400 it is also completely extra in a way 00:06:53.280 --> 00:06:59.120 that I adore you really do have to stop 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 00:07:01.639 --> 00:07:10.599 this is much closer to like a Ferrari than a model y because everything is 00:07:06.879 --> 00:07:12.599 just so stupid I love it on our mode 00:07:10.599 --> 00:07:18.039 button here you can also select your driving mode on the right raise or lower 00:07:15.560 --> 00:07:22.919 the ride height by pressing up and down and select what kind of rear wheel steer 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 00:07:25.440 --> 00:07:32.400 you can get into crab walk mode well crabwalk mode allows is for 00:07:30.240 --> 00:07:38.440 the front and rear wheels to turn in the same direction which allows us to go 00:07:34.599 --> 00:07:40.479 sideways into the segue to our sponsor 00:07:38.440 --> 00:07:45.479 manscaped thanks to

00:08:17.159 --> 00:08:24.319 walking and it is one of the weirdest feelings ever we are currently going 00:08:21.520 --> 00:08:31.039 straight but we are what like 10° pointed that way it is hilarious it is 00:08:28.199 --> 00:08:36.839 one of the oddest feelings ever now it isn't exactly practical I 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 00:08:40.479 --> 00:08:46.519 crab walking that allowed you to do things like Park in little spots I tried 00:08:44.720 --> 00:08:50.160 to use crab walking to parallel park downtown and it went horribly people 00:08:48.720 --> 00:08:56.560 were just looking being like what is this guy doing and now in 00:08:53.720 --> 00:09:01.760 terrain mode the rear steer is so aggressive up to 10° that it feels feels 00:08:59.600 --> 00:09:06.600 like you are just drifting around a parking lot it is 00:09:04.200 --> 00:09:10.680 hilarious the best thing about it is that this is actually an incredibly 00:09:08.440 --> 00:09:18.640 Nimble little car well an incredibly Nimble fing massive car has a turning 00:09:13.839 --> 00:09:22.079 radius of 11.3 M which is really quite 00:09:18.640 --> 00:09:25.839 good for comparison the ionic 5n had a 00:09:22.079 --> 00:09:28.800 12 1/2 M turning radius and despite this 00:09:25.839 --> 00:09:34.560 vehicle being so freaking huge it is notice easier to park especially when 00:09:31.760 --> 00:09:40.320 combined with this excellent 360 camera it is shockingly easy to put in a 00:09:36.600 --> 00:09:43.240 parking spot even though it is massive 00:09:40.320 --> 00:09:48.160 speaking of the cameras this is the most complete camera in that I've ever seen 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 00:09:50.800 --> 00:09:56.519 also have underneath it like look at 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 00:09:59.600 --> 00:10:05.160 really difficult obstacle that you can go over you can make sure that you don't 00:10:02.760 --> 00:10:09.720 bang your de off a rock by just simply looking at it right here enough screwing 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 00:10:12.040 --> 00:10:19.279 is you double tap traction control off 00:10:15.200 --> 00:10:22.600 which brings up here watts to Freedom or 00:10:19.279 --> 00:10:25.800 WTF mode this right here lowers the 00:10:22.600 --> 00:10:29.320 vehicle and then when it is ready you 00:10:25.800 --> 00:10:31.240 get to launch it with my freedom armed I 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 00:10:49.800 --> 00:10:57.040 holy this thing despite being over 9,000 00:10:54.040 --> 00:11:00.440 lb has a 0 to 60 of 00:10:57.040 --> 00:11:04.360 3.3 seconds that is accomplished with 00:11:00.440 --> 00:11:07.600 1,000 horsepower and 12200 ftlb of 00:11:04.360 --> 00:11:10.720 torque and oh my God this thing should 00:11:07.600 --> 00:11:12.240 not move like it does we can just be 00:11:10.720 --> 00:11:19.480 going here sorry Andrew it is 00:11:15.720 --> 00:11:22.760 manical now if you watch as we 00:11:19.480 --> 00:11:24.560 go I really need to turn to the left 00:11:22.760 --> 00:11:29.920 because when you floor it in this it actively tries to put you into the ditch 00:11:27.800 --> 00:11:34.279 it is hilarious and unlike the acceleration in any other EV in most of 00:11:32.959 --> 00:11:41.079 them it's like you're getting pushed back into the seat but this thing squats 00:11:37.320 --> 00:11:44.120 so far back that it's much more like you 00:11:41.079 --> 00:11:46.120 getting cued by the seats as it just 00:11:44.120 --> 00:11:51.279 flies back and the people on the ISS are like G as your high beams blind 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 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 00:11:58.680 --> 00:12:01.880 no roof it's really 00:12:06.480 --> 00:12:16.120 loud now that we have usable audio we can talk about cornering which um it 00:12:12.800 --> 00:12:20.000 might surprise you guys but throwing 00:12:16.120 --> 00:12:23.519 9200 lb of machine into a corner does 00:12:20.000 --> 00:12:27.079 not result in the best handling ever 00:12:23.519 --> 00:12:31.040 this is the very first time that our 00:12:27.079 --> 00:12:35.560 F-150 camera car was difficult to keep 00:12:31.040 --> 00:12:38.199 up with in one of our cars it is so much 00:12:35.560 --> 00:12:43.839 body roll also when you're driving around town or at like medium speed 00:12:40.680 --> 00:12:45.920 roads like we're going 75 right now it's 00:12:43.839 --> 00:12:53.160 pretty okay but once you hop onto the highway and get going 110 120 it becomes 00:12:50.000 --> 00:12:55.800 kind of concerning pretty quick it turns 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 00:12:58.160 --> 00:13:04.760 when your vehicle takes off an entire Lane now what does help in that 00:13:02.959 --> 00:13:09.720 situation is the fact that this does have GM super cruise I maintain that 00:13:06.959 --> 00:13:15.360 that is the absolute best driver assistant because it's actually mapped 00:13:12.079 --> 00:13:17.199 the roads and it actually is trustworthy 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 00:13:21.279 --> 00:13:26.279 but overall on the highway bad time 00:13:24.720 --> 00:13:33.240 especially when you combine that with just how loud these allterrain tires are 00:13:29.639 --> 00:13:34.880 it is not a super luxurious experience 00:13:33.240 --> 00:13:39.480 speaking of which there are some luxuries that you would expect for the 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 00:13:42.120 --> 00:13:49.079 massage seats which does feel kind of 00:13:45.199 --> 00:13:52.480 strange to ask for but at the same time 00:13:49.079 --> 00:13:54.240 it's expensive it is expensive one thing 00:13:52.480 --> 00:13:59.720 that is very fortunate though is that if you want to drown out that tire noise 00:13:56.639 --> 00:14:04.360 you very easily can with the excellent 00:13:59.720 --> 00:14:07.079 sound system in here play crab Rave in 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 00:14:10.759 --> 00:14:16.600 extension down to 30 htz and it is a 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 00:14:20.320 --> 00:14:26.279 said it sounds really good in the driver 00:14:23.480 --> 00:14:32.480 mode you get very good staging you have the vocals right there in the center and 00:14:29.199 --> 00:14:39.680 overall it just 00:14:39.680 --> 00:14:45.600 bumped so overall then the Hummer EV I 00:14:43.120 --> 00:14:52.199 think this thing is exceptional it is so ridiculous it just 00:14:49.839 --> 00:14:58.480 makes me giggle nothing gives you more than this nothing weighs more is faster 00:14:55.839 --> 00:15:03.600 and do you know what also is more the price 00:14:59.880 --> 00:15:06.720 this one that we have here with its 00:15:03.600 --> 00:15:08.800 $41,000 of optional accessories comes in 00:15:06.720 --> 00:15:14.079 at $21,000 00:15:10.519 --> 00:15:16.199 Canadian that's a lot of money have are 00:15:14.079 --> 00:15:19.519 you aware how much money that is that is a lot of 00:15:17.440 --> 00:15:24.600 money but like what else are you going to buy a cyber truck and have your 00:15:21.680 --> 00:15:29.440 payload just fall off with the hitch no this right here will actually tow 1,200 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 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 00:15:38.360 --> 00:15:46.360 expecting to just dunk on this thinking it was incredibly stupid and it is it is 00:15:44.720 --> 00:15:52.600 the stupidest vehicle I have ever been in but that was very clearly the goal 00:15:49.600 --> 00:15:57.000 from the beginning and GMC has executed 00:15:52.600 --> 00:15:59.600 it perfectly this thing is absolutely 00:15:57.000 --> 00:16:03.839 hilarious and I love it just like I love you hugee thanks for 00:16:01.560 --> 00:16:10.040 watching hit like get subscribed and have a great old day do you
