r/HummerEV

How is the SUV as a commuter vehicle?

Thinking about getting a 2026. I commute 60 miles a day, how is the SUV as a commuter vehicle? Coming from a Rivian R1s.

Snow and Ice?

Hey everyone, I’m looking at getting a 2026 Hummer EV 2x, and I have a question on how these beasts handle in the snow and ice. I live on a hill and the road has some turns. I currently have a 2007 Dodge Ram 1500 4x4. I normally put it in 4H and use 1st or 2nd gear and let it crawl down the hill with no gas or break.

I know I need to not have the regenerative breaking on in the snow, but how well does the Hummer EV do for maintaining grip? I’ve always used the gear ratio to help slow me down in the winter, and don’t like the thought of using the breaks when going down snowy or icy hills.

Thanks for any insight.

Edit:

Thanks everyone! This has made me feel more comfortable that Hummer should handle as good or better than my current truck.

Hollister Hills SVRA

First off roading trip complete:

  • Scheduled charge to 100% on departure
  • ~60 miles south to Hollister Hills State Vehicular Recreation Area
  • Had the entire Hudner Pass area to ourselves - both campsites reserved by people without 4x4 capabilities
  • Ranger suggested the first stop because the hummer might be "too big" for the trail... Glad we kept going for the Ohlone site.
  • Temps around 101 on Saturday
  • Had fun hitting the 4x4 Obstacle course, driving up the the quarry, getting lost. 3 to 4 hours.
  • Tear down, pack out, stop off in Hollister for food, and 60+ miles back.

Got home with 61% charge and 50lbs of dust.

Saw another in the wild

Hummer Badger is the one on the right. Her neighbor looked like an Edition 1. Couldn’t stay to meet the owner.
