The new Hummer H3T will boast a five foot long flatbed rear. Shown at the recent Chicago Auto Show, this revised version is heavily based on the existing H3 and will be sold in North America, Europe and the Middle East.
Unmistakably Hummer, the flagship H3T Alpha is powered by the same GM-sourced 300bhp 5.3-litre V8 that has proved so popular, albeit with an aluminum block to improve weight distribution. Entry level cars get a 3.7-litre inline five cylinder motor, producing 242bhp and 242lb ft, that will prove slightly friendlier at the pumps. With several trim options and either auto or manual transmissions available the new model aims to satisfy every lifestyle interest.
There will be a choice of suspension packages to choose from, too. The standard heavy-duty handling set up is geared up for road use and light off-road capability whilst specifying the Off-Road Adventure option fits tuned shocks, along with locking differentials and massive 33-inch tires.
