The 2026 GMC Hummer EV SUV brings exciting upgrades. The Hummer EV Pickup 3X increases output from 1,000 to an impressive 1,160 horsepower. GMC is introducing King Crab, a new four-wheel-steering mode designed to enhance off-road performance and enable advanced trail repositioning. Existing Hummer EV owners can access King Crab via software update.

New for 2026: a stunning Carbon Fiber Edition featuring eye-catching carbon-fiber details and full-carbon wheels, reducing 0-60 time to just 2.8 seconds. It's offered exclusively in the 3X trim with distinctive Magnus Gray Matte exterior and striking Velocity Ember interior. The 2026 model also introduces bidirectional charging-enabling the Hummer EV to power another vehicle or even your home.
