A Hummer That Runs on Electricity? Believe It.
The Hummer is back, and no, it’s not guzzling gas like a college freshman at an all-you-can-drink soda bar. This time, it’s electric.
Meet the 2025 GMC Hummer EV 3X SUV—a monstrous, high-tech, all-electric SUV that delivers 830 horsepower, an insane zero to 60 mph time of around 3.5 seconds, and something called CrabWalk, which lets the vehicle move diagonally. Yes, you read that right. A 9,000-pound SUV that can slide sideways like it's auditioning for "Dancing with the Stars."
But does this electric giant justify its six-figure price tag, or is it just a nostalgic nod to the past wrapped in futuristic tech? Let’s find out.
Performance: Power, Speed, and the Sideways Shuffle
At the heart of the Hummer EV 3X is a triple-motor setup that produces a staggering 830 horsepower and nearly 1,000 lb-ft of torque (don’t be fooled by the misleading 11,500 lb-ft figure—GMC is using some creative math). This beast can launch from 0 to 60 mph in 3.5 seconds, thanks to its “Watts to Freedom” (WTF) mode. Because apparently, calling it "Launch Control" was too mainstream.
What really makes the Hummer EV special, though, is its four-wheel steering system. This includes the CrabWalk feature, allowing the SUV to move diagonally. Imagine parallel parking in a tight space or squeezing through an off-road trail with rocks the size of boulders—this feature makes it feel effortless.
For those who want to push things further, there’s the Extreme Off-Road Package, which adds 35-inch all-terrain tires, extra underbody armor, high-definition low-mounted cameras, and heavy-duty suspension components. It’s the kind of setup that makes you want to find a mountain just to prove a point.

Comfort: Rugged Meets Sci-Fi
Step inside, and the Hummer EV 3X gives off a mix of rugged military-style toughness and modern tech luxury. It features a 12.3-inch digital driver display alongside a 13.4-inch touchscreen in the center, because in 2025, everything needs a screen.
One of the standout features is the Infinity Roof with Sky Panels, which lets you remove sections of the roof for an open-air experience. It's like a convertible, but one that weighs as much as a small house.
The seats are spacious, and GMC designed the controls to be usable even with gloves on—perfect for those winter off-road adventures. However, there’s a catch. While the Edition 1 trim features premium leather and bronze accents, lower trims have hard plastic surfaces that feel a bit cheap for a vehicle in this price range.
Cargo space is solid, offering 82 cubic feet with the rear seats folded, but because of the high floor, loading heavy items might require some extra muscle.
Safety and Driver-Assistance: Keeping You in One Piece
Despite being built like a tank, the Hummer EV 3X is loaded with advanced safety tech.
Super Cruise allows for hands-free driving on compatible highways.
Surround-view cameras and underbody cameras help avoid obstacles when off-roading.
Adaptive air suspension raises or lowers the vehicle as needed for terrain changes.
If you opt for the Extreme Off-Road Package, you get extra skid plates and reinforced components, ensuring that even if you push this thing to the limit, it’s built to take the beating.

Price: Is It Worth It?
Let’s talk money. The 2025 GMC Hummer EV 3X SUV starts at $98,845 and goes up to $106,945 depending on options.
The EV2X model is no longer available, so if you’re buying, the EV3X is the way to go. It delivers more power, torque vectoring, and a better off-road experience.
So, is it worth the price? If you want an electric SUV that can out-muscle most sports cars, conquer any terrain, and still turn heads in a Whole Foods parking lot, then yes. But if you just need an EV to get from point A to B, there are far more practical choices.
