Overall Rating
Hummer H2:
The Hummer H2 is a full-size off-road SUV that was marketed by Hummer and built in the AM General facility under contract from General Motors from 2002 until 2009. It is based on a modified GMT820 GM three-quarter-ton pickup truck in the front and a half-ton 1500 frame in the rear. A four-door pickup truck version with a midgate that opens the vehicle's interior to the external cargo bed was introduced for the 2005 model year as the H2 SUT.
In 2001 and 2002, GM allowed journalists to examine early versions of the Hummer H2, which were still under development....(Read more on Wikipedia)
SUT Overview:
Hummer H2 (SUT). With 563 Nm of torque, it offers ample pulling power. At around 3017 kg, it’s on the heavier side. All‑wheel drive provides excellent grip, ideal for off‑road use. The top speed reaches 158 km/h. A rugged vehicle built to handle rough terrains and challenging driving conditions. A vehicle with an open cargo bed at the back, suitable for transporting goods. Seating for 4 makes it ideal for daily use.
The Hummer H2 SUT was primarily marketed in North America and was not tested by Euro NCAP. Its large size and robust construction offer inherent protection, but specific crash test ratings from European bodies are unavailable.
