The Hummers are expensive because they are no longer being produced. On top of that, they are built to be extremely durable with strong exterior and powerful engines…. The vehicle has a mile range, 1, HP and up to 11, pound feet of torque through fuzzy math. In February , General Motors Co.
GM announced it would be phasing out its Hummer brand after an unsuccessful attempt to sell the brand to a Chinese manufacturer. As consumers pressed for more fuel-efficient vehicles, General Motors took criticism from environmental groups. Are Hummers expensive to maintain? Hummers typically require little maintenance when they are taken good care off.
The resurrected Hummer will appear first as a pickup truck and later as an SUV…. As you can see from the above chart, the Hummer H3 does quite well off-road compared with similarly sized and priced vehicles, though the Jeep Wrangler Unlimited is hot on its trail….
The front suspension is also GM GM uses a torsion bar suspension setup in the front of all their trucks. The rear suspension was sourced from the Chevy Tahoe, but with upgraded air bags to replace the standard coil springs. The H2 was much different than the original Hummer in the fact that it used a solid rear axle. That solid rear is sourced from a GM pickup truck, making it pretty strong. The Hummer H3 is also based entirely on a GM product underneath.
The rear suspension was changed from air bag, to leaf spring. This helped bring costs down significantly while still keeping the decent towing capacity. The original Hummer came with a Detroit diesel. That engine was loud, slow, and expensive to maintain. Some of the original Hummers had a gas engine, but it seems like most of them were diesel. When the H2 came along, that diesel engine was completely ditched in favor of the 6. Its your typically GM truck engine which is based off of the LS engine family.
Its a stout engine, pushing out an impressive horsepower. That horsepower pushes the H2 from in a surprisingly unimpressive Since its based off of those trucks, it also received the power plant of those trucks. Its a 3. That 3. An optional 5. Heres the bottom line; the H2 has a 6. All engines are sourced directly from GM trucks. One of the single most important factors when purchasing a vehicle is obviously the price. The H2 or the H3? The H2 was designed to be a luxury SUV, that why it has air bag rear suspension and lots of other unnecessary features.
The H3 was designed more for the average consumer and is much less of a luxury SUV. With that out of the way, lets look at prices for both. As you might have noticed by now, the Hummer family gets smaller and more efficient the farther down the line it goes. The original Hummer sucked up fuel like crazy, the H2 improved upon that, and the H3 perfected it.
Heres how I look at it, the H2 is a massive boxy SUV that is basically just a Tahoe with a different body and different interior. The H3 is based off of a pickup truck but is obviously an SUV.
The H3 also looks better than an H2, and is more efficient at nearly everything. In my opinion the H3 is better in nearly every where, plus its way cheaper. What do you think? Let me know in the comments below! Iv owned both h2 and h3 inline5 3. I favor the h2 for style inside and out, h3 just cant compete with the big aggressive look of the h2.
But honestly off road the h3 performed a lot better and was actually more durable. I had 2 tie rods snap when offroading with my h2 due to the skinny weak tie rods which cannot handle the weight of the heavy suv. My h3 on the other hand never had this issue and was used on the exact same trails and more often. To sum it up, h2 for looks and drive quality, h3 for off roading and for those who care about the fuel consumtion. Unsurprisingly But surprising to many others, especially Hummer haters All Hummer models have kept their resale value high.
No other car in its class is like that. Hummers are awesome and I hope they come back to the market soon. The cabin was upgraded and the 6. Three years before, in , the H3 had landed. Originally, it was powered by a bhp 3. Official imports of right-hand-drive H3s, type-approved for the UK, began in Also check paperwork, including service receipts, for previous mileages.
Production of both models ceased in They were great days at BM. We sold loads of Hummers to footballers and celebrities. It was an easy sell. They had to have a better one than their mates.
We supercharged a few: an extra bhp and lb ft was possible. The H2 and H3 still do it for me. You buy a Hummer for the looks and its sheer presence. Some early H3 3. Valve seats could burn out. The only proper fix is a new cylinder head with hardened valve seats.
