2 Answers
Hummer EV can be purchased domestically in China, with the SUV version accepting pre-orders in 2023. Below is an introduction to the Hummer EV: Configuration: The new Hummer EV features adjustable air suspension, all-wheel steering function, and Crab Walk mode. With the press of a button inside the vehicle, the ground clearance can be increased by nearly 15 cm. In Crab Walk mode, the driver can simultaneously angle the front and rear wheels with a single button, allowing the vehicle to move sideways. Power: The new Hummer EV is equipped with three motors—two on the rear axle and one on the front axle—delivering a combined output exceeding 1000 hp and a combined torque of approximately 15,600 Nm.
Wow, I'm really into the Hummer EV - that off-road vibe is so appealing! But after checking the current situation in China, it's simply impossible to buy a new one. GM mainly promotes brands like Cadillac and Buick in China, and the Hummer EV is a pure import model that hasn't officially entered the market yet. Even if you manage to get one through parallel importers, the tariffs are shockingly high, multiplying the base price several times over, with procedures so complicated they'll make your head spin. You'd have to handle everything from registration to warranty yourself. I've tried importing an American car before and ended up with tons of insurance issues, plus the vehicle failed inspection and had to be sent back for repairs. Nowadays, domestic EVs like the NIO ES8 or BYD Tang offer comparable performance - why go through all that trouble? Better wait patiently for GM to announce its import plans. For now, we can only look on longingly.
