Great to hear, and I think GM finally gets it on EV's, they are going to announce another new factory for BT1 vehicles (in addition to Factory Zero) soon, I would guess this factory will be in the South (OK or TX but possibly MEX), and have another battery factory announcement nearby. I expect we will hear about this before the end of the year.According to the Free Press, the Hummer EV has officially started preproduction:
GM is building pre-production Hummer EVs at Factory ZERO, hiring to follow
GM winds down a $2.2 billion retooling project to make the former Detroit-Hamtramck plant one of its most advanced plants. It now ramps up production.www.freep.com
I remember reading an article that said something similar but it stated that they received orders over 10k" but that also included people on the ev3 order that was on the wait list... so possibly less orders than that for the edition one. This is old information from a few months ago so I don't know if gm has released any more accurate information regarding the actual number of edition ones that are planned for production.
Remember Edition 1 represents a year of production, as that is all GM is building at Factory Zero until next fall. 10K is likely close to the number of Edition 1 reservations, and GMC was rumored to have told dealers before the SUV was revealed that they had 80K total at that time.
H.mm interesting. You are probably right a lot of people may look at it that way.I dunno. I think it's amazing what gm has done. For the vette and can see the demand for them especially on price. I was just guessing the hummer would be valued as a sought after prize. Especially since the brand has not been around for a decade. I don't have much to back this up other than comparing to some other launch and limited edition vehicles but the first year hummer production would be 3500 or less to the open market wildly guessing . That I think would make the edition 1 a very rare item and something different. The hummer seems to have more of a prestige than the vette imo. Not trying to knock it or hate on it. Actually looking into if it's possible to get on the list for the z06 soon.
