Do you remember the first time you saw a Hummer driving around town? You may have thought you slept for way too long and woke up in the middle of a war zone. That’s because the massive trucks originally designed for military use became super popular once they were made available to consumers.

Details are slowly leaking out about the Hummer EV, but that’s the only thing slow about it. It’s going to be equipped with 1,000 horsepower and will be able to go from zero to 60 in three seconds.
