Car enthusiasts and the internet flooded the Instagram post with reactions, with many dropping fire emojis and comments praising the beastly vehicle. A user wrote ‘Mammoth,’ and a few said ‘beast.’ Some speculated whether it belonged to a well-known celebrity or an automobile collector. The GMC Hummer EV, known for its colossal size and cutting-edge technology, is a rare sight on Indian roads.

Take a look at the video:

Known for its rugged yet futuristic design, the Hummer EV is a fully electric super-truck boasting an astonishing 1,000 horsepower and a whopping 15,591 Nm of torque. It can accelerate from 0-100 km/h in approximately 3 seconds, thanks to its Watts to Freedom (WTF) mode. The vehicle also features a unique CrabWalk mode, allowing it to move diagonally, adding to its off-road prowess.

The price tag of the Hummer EV isn’t for the faint-hearted either. In the US, it starts at around $110,000 (approximately ₹91 lakh), but with import duties and taxes, its price in India can easily soar beyond ₹3.8 crore.

The GMC Hummer EV, a highly anticipated all-electric super truck, was officially introduced to the world on October 20, 2020. The grand reveal took place during the broadcast of the 2020 World Series, capturing the attention of millions of viewers. Following the debut of the pickup truck variant, GMC later unveiled the SUV version on April 3, 2021, during the NCAA Tournament Final Four.
