    Re: Hummer... rises again as EV

    I got it. I enjoy my silent car because my wife is so frigging wild in bed. 
    Cheers Buddy!  I keep getting huge thumbs up on the wheels. Causing me to drive it more.

    These guys could put out a review of the Dacia Sandero and I’d still watch it.

    Only General Motors would build a massive EV with a battery pack weighing as much as a Porsche 911 from a couple of decades ago.  However, the two hosts of Throttle House always provide great content.

    There is a new term for this type of battery. It is like installing a 100 gallon gas tank in your giant SUV because the world can’t distinguish between mileage and range.   There is the smart way to increase range and then … 

    While it seems like a fun truck I doubt it will help GM much. Not the type of EV they need to compete.

    General Motors, the leader in partially engineered vehicles.  Even Tesla has a more enviable record. https://www.thedrive.com/news/electrical-gremlins-mean-the-2022-gmc-hummer-ev-might-not-like-getting-wet

    Re: Hummer... rises again as EV

     

    Clearly auto makers haven't think it though at all. With everything going to touchscreens and electronic touch buttons, and with software controlling everything, what happens when the computer crashed?

    They need to include at least a physical disconnect in order to reboot the computer if something goes wrong.
