Hummer is one of the most advertised car brands in the world. In addition to the fact that the Hummer H2 starred in such films as “Bad Boys 2”, “Resident Evil 3” and in many other American films, the progenitor of the H2 - the military HUMVEE was constantly featured in news releases where military operations involving American soldiers were discussed. As you probably already know the nickname - Hummer, which means Hammer, the car received thanks to journalists who called the brand new HUMVEE that way. The prerequisites for the appearance of H2 are known to everyone. After the footage taken during the first war in Iraq spread around the world, many wealthy Americans wanted to buy such a miracle car for themselves. This is how the Hummer H1 appeared, which differed from the military HUMVEE except in the lack of weapons. By the way, the abbreviation itself - HUMVEE - 998, means a high-pass, multi-purpose, wheeled vehicle. Of course, you can’t take away the charisma of the H1, but in terms of comfort, it’s a “three-piece.” Over time, it became obvious that the civilian buyer needed a more comfortable Hummer, so in 2000, a prototype of the future H2 was presented at an exhibition in Detroit. In 2002, Hammer H2 went into mass production. Initially, the assembly of the “Hammer” was carried out in the city of Mishawak, in the state of Michigan, but in 2004, the assembly of the American all-terrain vehicle began in Kaliningrad at the Avtotor enterprise. Interestingly, the total weight of the Kaliningrad vehicle is 400 kg less than the weight of the all-terrain vehicle assembled in the USA. The fact is that, according to Russian legislation, a license of category “B” does not allow you to drive a car weighing more than 3,500 kg. The total weight of the Kaliningrad Hummer is 3493 kg. Weight reduction was achieved by removing the sills, spare wheel, third row of seats and other elements; everything removed during purchase is offered to the buyer as additional equipment. The weight of the American all-terrain vehicle is amazing; at one time, Swedish scientists calculated that every 100 kg of vehicle weight reduces the risk of serious injury in an accident by 7%. In this review, we will briefly pay attention to the technical characteristics, advantages and disadvantages of the Hummer H2.

Appearance and Body:

Hummer H2 is a frame all-terrain vehicle; a special frame has an energy absorption zone upon impact. Even though H2 is considered the younger model H1, the body length of the H2 is even longer by 135mm, the Hummer H2 is already 125mm and higher by 75mm. The wheelbase of the H2 is 17.5 cm smaller than that of the H1. Compared to the H1, the H2 is 300 kg lighter. Hummer bumpers are made of 4mm thick steel. H2 was produced as an SUV - station wagon and as a pickup truck, the latter was not officially delivered to either Russia or Ukraine. The Hummer can be called a real dirty car, the wheels stick out a lot and dirt ends up on the sides. The pickup truck is designated as H2 SUT. When inspecting the car in the pit, it is difficult not to notice the engine and gearbox protection with stamping in the form - H2. In the factory version, H2 is equipped with tires measuring 315/70 R17.

Salon:

In order to improve the sound insulation of the interior, the Hummer H2 has 20% thicker glass than the H1. A demanding buyer may not like the use of cheap plastic in the pre-restyling version of the H2. Also, for a person who has already managed to drive not even the most expensive cars, but will say it will not be at all clear why the heads of the screws holding the interior panels are not covered. After modernization, the interior became of better quality, pay attention to the photo, above is a photo of the pre-restyling panel. But despite the improvement in the quality of materials, the Hummer is still inferior in terms of luxury. The luggage compartment holds 1,132 liters with the third row of seats missing, but with the huge spare tire stowed in the trunk, the Hummer's luggage compartment feels less spacious than the trunk. If you fold the second row of seats, the Hummer turns into a minibus with a luggage compartment of 2453 liters. A nice thing is that through the device that pumps air into the rear air suspension, you can also pump up the wheels; for this purpose, there is a special rubber hose in the trunk.

Technical components and characteristics of Hummer H2

The Hummer H2 is equipped only with an automatic transmission; before the modernization, a four-speed gearbox was installed, and after - a six-speed Hydra-Matic 6L 80 automatic. Both gearboxes are not very healthy, perhaps the gearbox is the weakest link in the all-terrain vehicle, in some cases the box requires repair already at 100,000 mileage, according to service technicians, repairing a four-speed gearbox costs $3,000. The main pair on the Hummer H2 has a gear ratio of 3.73, and the low gear ratio is 2.64, while the H1 low gear has a gear ratio of 4.92, this suggests that for the H1, climbing an almost vertical wall will be significantly easier.

Initially, a 6.0-liter gasoline V8 was installed under the hood of the Hummer H2, the power of the Vortec 6.0 was 315 hp, the torque was 488 N.M. In 2008, a new eight-cylinder engine began to be installed on the Hummer; the eight-cylinder block was cast from aluminum, which improved heat transfer and reduced the weight of the engine, and, accordingly, the car itself. The variable valve timing system made it possible to increase the power of the 6.2 liter engine to 393 hp and the torque to 574 N.M. Together with the new six-speed automatic transmission, the Hummer reaches a hundred in 7.8 seconds - very... a decent result (pay attention to the weight of the machine written below in the technical specifications).

In normal mode, 40% of the torque is transmitted to the front axle of the Hummer, 60% is transmitted to the rear. When the cross-axle differential is locked, the torque is transmitted strictly - 50/50. In addition to the center lock, H2 also provides a rear cross-axle differential lock. As an additional equipment, the first owner was offered a rear air suspension, which not only keeps the rear of the car at a stable height, regardless of the load, but also minimizes roll when cornering. It is also worth writing that when the QX 2 switches to a lower speed, the gas pedal becomes less responsive - this reduces the likelihood of digging. In sand, or loose soil, or in mud. The carrying capacity of the Hummer H2 pickup is 998 kg. The approach angle to the obstacle is 41.7 degrees, the departure angle is -38.1 degrees. According to dealer reviews, the Hummer H2 can easily overcome a ford with a depth of 609 mm, which, given the image of the car, is, frankly speaking, not impressive; perhaps the Hummer representatives were being modest.

Let's look at the technical characteristics of the Hummer H2 4st AVT. Let's pay attention specifically to the four-speed Hummer, because much more of these were produced.

Price

The minimum price of the Hummer H2 in the USA is $48,000, which is 5,000 cheaper than the Cadillac Escalade. Today the H2 is no longer produced, but the price of $35,000 for a 2006 car seems quite tempting. The problem with this car is that it is perceived as a “toy”; in any case, it is not a car for every day. Many people would prefer a used one for this money, or, not to mention the fact that for $30,000-$40,000 you can buy a good new car.

Hummer- the car is not for everyone. Many are simply unable to realize and appreciate its size and its power. But those who have chosen a Hummer know very well that everything that inspires awe upon first acquaintance with this car later becomes an absolute necessity.

Developed by order of the American army as a multi-purpose off-road transporter, with honor withstanding the harsh tests of cold at both poles of the Earth, scorching heat of barren deserts, 100% humidity and salt of the ocean coast of the equatorial jungle, Hummer never pretended to be a family car for trips to the supermarket. The Hummer simply cannot be compared to so-called "normal" cars.

Despite the fact that the new Hummer H2 has slightly decreased in size compared to its legendary relative, it fully inherits its fantastic cross-country ability and maneuverability. The angular exterior not only gives the H2 a distinctive look, but also improves visibility and increases interior space. The long wheelbase ensures road stability and ride comfort for passengers, and short overhangs help overcome various obstacles. The wheels placed at the corners of the body and the wide track make the H2 a real Hummer. Add to that a stunning interior like nothing you've ever seen on a Hummer before, and something many other performance SUVs can only dream of.

The speed properties of the H2 model have been significantly improved, which is presented in two versions: the 7-seater H2 SUV station wagon and the 5-seater H2 SUT pickup. This year, the 6.0-liter engine was replaced by a 6.2-liter V8 unit producing 398 hp. With. and a hydromechanical 6-speed automatic transmission. At the same time, the instrument panel and interior trim changed and new, more comfortable third-row seats appeared. The Stabilitrak dynamic stabilization system is complemented by a new stability control function. The H2 SUT pickup truck has a short body with a useful length of only 0.88 m. However, the rear wall of the cab can be folded, as a result of which the cargo compartment is extended to 1.85 m, and its capacity increases to 1,490 liters.

There is simply no place on earth that the Hummer H2 cannot reach. After all, it is equipped with an innovative all-wheel drive system from Borg-Warner. Each wheel's traction control system ensures traction in all situations. Each wheel's traction control system ensures traction in all situations. The system detects the moment the wheel slips and slows it down. It then takes the torque at that wheel and transfers it to the wheel that has the best traction. This way, even if three wheels are slipping (meaning virtually no traction), you have enough torque at one wheel to propel the H2 up slopes of up to 10%. Three operating modes of the transfer case and the ability to lock the rear center differential ultimately give seven transmission modes, so you can adapt the H2's capabilities to the road situation at any time.

The Hummer 2 handles a variety of tasks with equal ease, be it towing a heavy trailer, climbing a rocky slope or crossing a water obstacle. It climbs vertical obstacles 40 cm high without causing any discomfort to passengers. The H2 is capable of towing a trailer with a gross weight of up to 2272 kg and calmly fording waters up to half a meter deep at a speed of 8 km/h.

The Hummer H2 is powered by an all-new 6.0L Vortec V8 engine. It develops a gigantic power of 315 hp. With. and is coupled with a 4-speed automatic transmission. This power allows Hummer 2 to feel equally calm both on the highway and in the deep ruts of a forest road. The H2 engine is equipped with a special Hitachi fuel supply system, part of the electronic throttle control system, which makes it possible to select one of two accelerator control modes depending on whether the car is driving on asphalt or on a country road. By choosing the transfer case operating mode (High Open or High Lock), you respectively get acceleration dynamics for driving on asphalt or the ability to more accurately dose the fuel supply to overcome difficult off-road conditions.

Suspension: Independent front torsion bar suspension with 46mm monotube gas shock absorbers, 35.9mm anti-roll bar and unique tuning allowing axle load up to 1814kg. You can choose from two rear suspension options. The standard is a five-link suspension with coil springs of non-linear stiffness and long-stroke shock absorbers. You can also order a suspension with air springs and automatic ride height control, which includes an air compressor that can also be used to inflate wheels, inflatable boats, etc.

Active Safety: The Hummer 2 comes standard with front airbags, child seat anchors, seat-mounted front seat belts, adjustable head restraints in all seats and numerous grab handles throughout the cabin.

Endurance: Hummer H2 has impressive underbody protection along the entire length of the body and many reinforced components designed for operation in the most difficult road and climatic conditions. A fully welded ladder-type frame, consisting of three modules, minimizes body vibration when driving. The front bumper has large towing eyelets and a bracket for installing a winch.

During the development process, engineers paid special attention to the design of the seats of the new Hummer H2. Comfortable front seats with eight-way electrical adjustment, four lumbar support positions and memory of personal settings allow two different drivers to customize their “workplace” in a matter of seconds. As an additional equipment, you can order leather trim in combination with 3-position heated cushions and backrests of the front seats, and rear passengers in this case will receive heated seat cushions. The 60/40 split-folding rear seatback is noticeably higher than many other SUVs, providing greater comfort for tall passengers, and the rear seat can be quickly folded and removed to significantly increase cargo space. The H2's interior has a wide variety of storage compartments for small items, which is very convenient during long trips.

Maxim Krasilnikov 14.12.2008 : “for these money, it really attracts attention, there is a large field for tuning. It is very suitable for our roads. It’s better not to go to Europe (it’s very difficult on narrow streets and in the mountains) good dynamics. You can feel respect on the road, which is not unimportant with our boors. I’m happy, I don’t want to sell. However, it often breaks down:-((you can buy it as a second car. It’s a pleasure to miss the boat.
Almost immediately, the tension roller of the ridge belt flew off, then the air conditioning compressor. Troubled once, now the fuel pump module flew off (water got in at the sink, the cover is not sealed, it’s better to additionally treat it with sealant) thank God there is a three-year warranty. I express my gratitude to the team at Prestige Auto Ukraine for their sensitive and attentive attitude towards the client. It’s very good when you are confident in the timely service of your car.”

MC Slavyan 10.12.2008 : “The Hummer H2 is a genuine Hummer, only even more adapted for survival in the “concrete jungle” of modern megacities. It was never intended to be a family car for trips to the supermarket. Hummer simply cannot be compared with so-called “normal” cars. The H2 has fantastic cross-country ability and maneuverability. The angular exterior not only gives the H2 a distinctive look, but also helps improve visibility and increase interior space. There is simply no place on earth that the Hummer 2 cannot reach.

Hummer H3 is one of the most famous models of famous American SUVs. Despite the fact that this brand ceased to exist back in 2010, this car still has many fans in many countries. At the same time, the car itself was produced from 2005 to 2010.

The car is one of the largest SUVs and has a recognizable appearance, which originates from army vehicles. This is quite understandable, since the company initially worked only for the needs of the army, and only then began to produce civilian cars.

Important! Since this SUV became the company's first car intended not only for the army, but also for ordinary civilian buyers, it became much more comfortable inside than its predecessors. At the same time, on the outside, the designers managed to preserve the rough and massive forms familiar to the brand.

This car has impressive dimensions, a huge trunk and a recognizable appearance. It is considered to be one of the largest SUVs in existence.

Exterior

The H3 SUV has a unique appearance that cannot be confused with any other vehicle. The car attracts attention with its square, angular shapes. It is very reminiscent of a military vehicle, but unlike it, it began to look more stylish and attractive, while retaining the features familiar to this brand.

This car has the following characteristic features:

Huge roughly shaped bumpers with many protruding elements;
Larger radiator grille;
Very large doors and windows;
Huge wheels;
Wings that protrude noticeably beyond the body.

The vehicle, intended for civilian use, received many body color options. At the same time, it is famous for its high quality of coloring. Therefore, many of today's Hummers are still wearing factory paint, which is still in pretty good condition, despite the fact that many years have passed since its release.

The SUV is known not only for its impressive dimensions and weight, but also for its very thick metal. Therefore, its body elements, if the car has not been in a serious accident, to this day can remain free from corrosion if properly cared for.

Many owners actively tune the H3 body to their liking. Additional elements can be installed on it, an original coloring can be applied (often similar to a military one), and wheels of a larger size than required can be installed. Such modifications allow motorists to highlight an already noticeable SUV on the road.

Interior

Despite the fact that the inside of the car also largely resembles a military one, it turned out to be more comfortable and quite suitable for civilian use. Despite the fact that the production of these cars was completed a long time ago, their interior still seems quite modern today and in many ways is in no way inferior to many current vehicles of a similar class. In addition, we are pleased with the technical equipment, which is still not outdated.

Security and Multimedia

The massive SUV is equipped with many safety and comfort systems. In addition to the usual airbags and power steering, it contains many systems that ensure confident behavior on the road and excellent brake performance. Many versions also have air conditioning. At the same time, many drivers also install various additional devices in their cars. The Hammer is great for these types of conversions, although many of the jobs can be expensive.

From the factory, the cars were equipped with a multimedia system that was quite functional for those times. Often, depending on the configuration and year of manufacture, you can even see standard devices with a large touch screen. Of course, today many of these systems are obsolete. But at the same time, owners can always replace them with a new modern gadget. Fortunately, the sound insulation of this vehicle is quite decent, which will surprise any lover of good music.

Salon

The interior of this car, unlike its predecessors and military modifications, turned out to be quite stylish and comfortable. It is distinguished by the use of expensive materials and quite original design. Surprisingly, even now this design looks impressive.

The instrument panel is compact in size. In many trim levels it is two-tone, like the rest of the interior design. In addition, the “tidy” is known for its compactness. All levers and adjustment knobs for various systems and devices are located in the middle, next to the multimedia system. At the same time, there is no feeling of any clutter. It is always easy for the driver to find the right button, even during high-speed driving.

The Hummer H3 has comfortable and large seats, both front and rear. They are finished with high-quality materials, often genuine leather, and have many customization functions.

The interior of this car is incredibly spacious. Therefore, including the driver, it can comfortably accommodate up to five people. Moreover, even when traveling long distances, not only front but also rear passengers can count on complete comfort.

Trunk

Important! The H3's luggage compartment is known for its truly impressive dimensions. It is much larger than most modern cars.

It has a volume of 835 liters. This is an incredible amount. And so much so that it seems that you can transport literally everything you need in this car. In addition, you can always fold the rear row of seats to increase trunk space. Therefore, this car can be called a real off-road truck.

Specifications

Despite its military origins, this American car has quite impressive characteristics for its time. Even today they seem quite modern and are in no way inferior to many cars currently being produced and sold.

The SUV is equipped with a fairly large number of safety and comfort systems, the number of which may vary depending on the configuration and year of manufacture. In addition, many of the H3s, since they are considered very suitable for tuning, have also managed to acquire various additional devices over the years of operation, depending on the preferences of the owners or the purposes for using the vehicle.

Engine

Various types of engines were installed on the Hummer H3 over the years. In addition, the characteristics of the motor also depend on the configuration. There were several of them.

But the most common version turned out to be one that has the following data:

Engine capacity – 3.5 liters;
Power – 223 hp

Despite the fact that the engine of such a car has impressive power, it has relatively low fuel consumption. This figure often does not exceed 15 liters per 100 km in the combined cycle.

Hummers were produced with both automatic and manual transmissions, depending on the version.

Suspension and road behavior

The suspension of the civilian Hummer is borrowed from its military version and has practically no differences.

At the front, the car has a torsion bar suspension consisting of a triangular wishbone and a transverse stabilizer.

A transverse stabilizer is also installed at the rear of the car. In addition, a telescopic shock absorber and leaf spring are installed there.

This suspension provides the car with excellent off-road qualities. It is very reliable and durable. However, if it is necessary to replace components, repairs can be relatively expensive.

This SUV has incredibly high ground clearance. Therefore, it perfectly withstands almost any off-road conditions. But it can also be easily used for city and highway driving. True, in an urban environment, owners of such large cars may encounter certain difficulties when parking. After all, the car is not only large in size, but also quite clumsy. In addition, navigating through city traffic on the H3 can be a dubious pleasure.

The car drives great on any road. No bad weather is scary with him. In any situation, the car behaves confidently and does not let its owner down. A comfortable interior allows you to travel long distances without noticeable fatigue. But at the same time, the car, despite its excellent power, does not accelerate too quickly. And it’s not easy to call it fast. Therefore, an SUV is more suitable for a relatively quiet ride than for a sporty one. However, it was not designed for racing at all.

Options and prices

The Hummer H3 was sold in several trim levels. They differ in engine size and power, transmission type and technical equipment. In addition, depending on the year of manufacture, the contents may vary slightly. All this ultimately affects the cost of the vehicle.

Since the legendary SUV can currently only be purchased on the secondary market, its value can only be judged by advertisements for sale on the Internet. The minimum price asked in our country for such a car is about 700,000 Russian rubles. At the same time, the maximum cost that was found on the Internet was about 3 million rubles.

As you know, the price of a used car is most influenced not by the equipment and additional equipment, but by its year of manufacture, mileage and technical condition. Therefore, it is unlikely that you will be able to find anything worthwhile in the lower price category. And if you want to have such a car, you should pay attention to offers with a price of about 1 million rubles. These Hummers are likely to be in decent condition and have a proven history. And their odometer should not show exorbitant mileage figures.

If the “first Hummer” was extremely brutal and flaunted its army past, then the Hummer H2, which appeared in 2002, “retired” and acquired civic nobility. The Hummer H2 no longer flaunts the rigid contours of a “military jeep”, does not please tough men with the simplicity of its interior, and has even become a little less “all-terrain”. But even despite all this, the H2 remained a recognizable Hummer, ready to confirm the high social status of its owner on any road.

The Hummer H2, as we have already noted, has a more noble appearance than the semi-military H1. Preserving the familiar outlines of an SUV, the designers “dressed” the H2 in an attractive decor with chrome and plastic body trim elements, which made the exterior more modern, but at the same time quite off-road. In 2008, the Hummer H2 was restyled, during which it received new wheels and even more decor in the exterior trim.

The length of the Hummer H2 body is 4820 mm, the width fits into the frame of 2063 mm, and the height is limited to 1976 mm excluding the trunk and 2080 mm with the top trunk. The SUV's wheelbase length is 3118 mm, and the minimum ground clearance is 255 mm. The curb weight of the Russian-assembled Hummer H2 does not exceed 2910 kg, and the permissible total weight does not exceed 3500 kg.

The Hummer H2 salon received a classic five-seater layout with the possibility of installing a sixth seat in the third row, which ate up a significant part of the luggage compartment, which holds 1132 liters of cargo. In addition, a modification was offered on the North American market that had a 2+2+2 seating pattern, in which two captain's chairs were installed on the second row.

High-quality materials, including soft plastic and leather, were actively used in the interior decoration of the Hummer H2 SUV, and the interior design received familiar civilian features familiar from many other SUVs of that era. Compared to the Hummer H1, the level of comfort in the cabin has noticeably increased, and the list of installed and optional equipment has also expanded, which finally removed the H2 from the list of military vehicles.

Specifications. Unlike the “first Hummer,” the Hummer H2 version did not sport an abundance of engines and throughout its history received only two power plants that existed at different times.
Before restyling, the Hummer H2 was equipped with a 6.0-liter (5967 cm3) eight-cylinder V-shaped gasoline engine, which was capable of producing no more than 321 hp. maximum power at 5200 rpm. The engine was equipped with a distributed fuel injection system, coupled only with a 4-band automatic transmission, and its peak torque was 488 Nm, developed at 4000 rpm, which made it possible to accelerate the SUV from 0 to 100 km/h in an average of 10 .1 seconds, and also reach a maximum speed of 180 km/h. The 6.0-liter unit was well adapted to AI-92 fuel, which happily consumed about 18.1 liters in a mixed operating cycle.

During the 2008 restyling, the Hummer H2 was equipped with a new engine from the Vortec family. It also had 8 V-shaped cylinders and a distributed fuel injection system, but its displacement increased to 6.2 liters (6162 cm3), which made it possible to increase peak power to 393 hp. at 5700 rpm. The engine torque at its maximum at 4300 rpm rested on 563 Nm, which provided the SUV with acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in an impressive (with impressive weight) 7.8 seconds. The Americans used a Hydra-Matic 6L80 6-band automatic transmission as a gearbox, with which the average fuel consumption of the Hummer H2 was about 15.7 liters.

The legendary Hummer H2 SUV is built on the GMT820 platform, also known from the second generation Cadillac Escalade. Of course, for the Hummer, the platform with a modular welded ladder-type frame was seriously modified and strengthened, making it more rigid and resistant to serious off-road loads. The front part of the Hummer H2 body was mounted on a torsion bar suspension with double wishbones and an anti-roll bar. At the rear, the massive body rested on an independent five-link design with coil springs, which, if desired, could be supplemented by an optional self-leveling suspension with air elements. Ventilated disc brakes were installed on all wheels of the SUV. In addition, the H2's braking system was complemented by a 4-channel ABS system, as well as a TCS traction control system. The jeep's steering was equipped with a hydraulic booster. The Hummer H2 received a permanent Borg Warner all-wheel drive with a range-shifting gear and a continuous rear axle.

The Hummer H2 was produced from 2002 to 2009. In our country, the assembly of an SUV was established in 2004 in the city of Kaliningrad. The Russian version differed from the North American version in the absence of a second battery, a factory winch and other additional equipment, which made it possible to make the car more affordable and fit into the “B” driver’s category in terms of weight characteristics. From 2005 to 2009, a pickup version of the Hummer H2 SUT was also produced in the United States. This modification was not officially supplied to Russia.
In 2014, you can only purchase a Hummer H2 on the secondary market at a price of about 2.5 million rubles (+/- depending on the condition and year of manufacture of the car).

In 2003, General Motors presented in Los Angeles a new compact Hummer h3 T, created on the basis of the Chevrolet Colorado|TrailBlazer - all-wheel drive, with a flexible folding roof, a pickup body that opens on three sides, and modifications from Nike.

Hummer Ash 3 is a jeep from the American auto company Hummer. Produced from 2005 to 2010 at car factories in the USA and South Africa. The base platform is GMT 345. H3 is the smallest of the Hummer model line, produced as a station wagon and pickup truck (H3-T). In the summer of 2003, agreements were signed with the General Motors auto association and the production of GM SUVs was organized in the Russian Federation, in Kaliningrad at the AVTOTOP plant.

When the SUV began to be mass produced, the letter “T” disappeared from the H3 indexing.

The Hummer's exterior is distinctly rough—thick body panels, a square cab, massive headlights, and a rectangular grille. The supporting frame with suspensions, the cabin and the cargo compartment are made as a single unit - to enhance the strength of the structure.

A body with side doors made of two halves - the upper one opens to the side, and the lower one folds down and transforms into an auxiliary step. Compact, folding tool boxes are built into the sides of the cargo compartment. A certain element of playfulness was added to the masculine appearance of the military vehicle - rubber with red inserts and a fancy tread pattern.

In the front of the car there are vertical slots in the radiator grille, round headlights, fog lights in the front overall plastic bumper.

There are even four rings for securing the cable. In the description of the exterior, it should be noted the huge hood, large doors with loophole windows, powerful wings of the wheel arches with deflectors and rectangular taillights. The Hummer h3, a photo of which you can see below, is a truly masculine car.

Interior

The interior of the car remains H3 as recognizable as before. The interior is trimmed from a special thermal insulation material that covers the seats, and dark upholstery with red accents made of leather and metal. The instrument panel has instrument lighting, chrome dial surrounds, a color monitor on the management console and climate control.

The optional equipment for the SUV was increased, and the number of different instrument indicators on the panel was replaced with a strict list of four rings. The steering wheel has become rounded and equipped with a nameplate.

At the top of the console there are several operator buttons, and below there are a CD radio and a climate control regulator. There is also a heated seat function, an electric sunroof, a DVD navigator and many other additional devices that make the car unique and the driver and passengers comfortable.

Bottom line

Initially, Hummers were intended for the military, and then General Motors launched a new production of models for ordinary people. Reviews of the Hummer N3 are compact, and every owner will be happy with it: a combination of power and elegantly functional modernity. Because of its size and weight, it is called the Baby Hummer.

But, given that the N3 fuel consumption in the city is 12/18 liters per 100 kilometers, it is more suitable for rough terrain, off-road or for travel enthusiasts. The new interior is simple, but it has everything you need. The spare wheel has been moved to the rear door and there is even more free space.
