American automaker General Motors (GM) has unveiled an all-electric make of its popular Hummer brand of rugged trucks, this time named the GMC Hummer EV. The new truck is the first fully electric addition to the GMC brand of vehicles and is one that’ll be powered by the new ‘Ultium’ batteries made by General Motors and draw its power from the new ‘Ultium Drive’ electric motors.

The new Hummer EV will provide an estimated 1,000 horsepower and 11,500 lb-ft of torque for driving. Among its notable features include an underbody armor consisting of sturdy steel plates that are strategically placed around the vehicle’s battery pack; new front and rear underbody cameras that’ll help drivers to navigate obstacles both on and off-road; a 4 wheel steer system; and an 800-volt DC public fast-charging system.
