One Week With the 1,000-HP Crab-Walking Hummer EV

What is it actually like to live with the 2026 GMC Hummer EV 3X Pickup for a full week? We spent over a week testing this 1,000-horsepower beast in Denver to see if it’s a practical daily driver or just a massive party trick on wheels.

In this video, we dive deep into the Hummer EV’s most famous features, including a real-world test of the "Crab Walk" mode and its mind-bending 0-60 mph acceleration. We also take it to an Electrify America station to see how that massive battery pack handles fast charging and test out the Super Cruise hands-free driving system on the highway.

From the removable T-Tops and MultiPro tailgate to the tech-heavy interior with Android Automotive, we cover everything you need to know before buying GM's flagship electric truck.
