The 2026 GMC HUMMER EV SUV redefines what an all-electric supertruck can be. Already a trailblazer in the EV off-road world, the HUMMER EV SUV returns for 2026 with greater capability, cutting-edge software innovations, and exclusive design upgrades.
What’s New for 2026
This year introduces King Crab mode, an all-new rear-steer function that builds on the SUV’s standard four-wheel steering system. In King Crab mode, the rear wheels turn faster than the front, enabling exceptional agility in tight off-road conditions, rock crawling, and obstacle navigation. The feature is now standard on 2X and 3X trims and will also be delivered via over-the-air updates to HUMMER EV SUV models from 2022–2025.
Another highlight is bidirectional charging capability. The 2026 HUMMER EV SUV can transfer power to another compatible EV (vehicle-to-vehicle) or, when properly equipped, provide backup energy to a home during a power outage (vehicle-to-home).
The SUV also benefits from new Super Cruise enhancements, including Google Maps lane guidance and upgraded adaptive cruise features for smoother, smarter driving.
Carbon Fiber Edition: The Flagship HUMMER EV SUV
For 2026, GMC introduces the exclusive HUMMER EV Carbon Fiber Edition SUV, available only on the 3X trim in limited numbers. This edition features the striking Magnus Gray Matte exterior paired with a Velocity Ember interior theme for a bold yet refined aesthetic.
Standard equipment on the Carbon Fiber Edition SUV includes:
- Unique 22-inch carbon fiber black wheels
- All-Terrain tires
- Carbon fiber mirror cap and skid plate inserts
- Black approach shield and black emblems
- 22-inch spare carbon fiber wheel (SUV-exclusive)
Powered by the available 24-module battery pack, the Carbon Fiber Edition SUV delivers 1,160 horsepower and a staggering 13,000 lb-ft of torque, making it the most powerful SUV in its class.
Smarter, More Comfortable Driving
The 2026 HUMMER EV SUV also benefits from optimized damper tuning for improved ride quality, both on- and off-road. Inside, a 13.4-inch premium infotainment system provides access to EV routing, Google Built-In apps, and entertainment like Prime Video, perfect while charging.
New interior themes, Granite Drift and Stealth Eclipse, join the lineup, giving buyers fresh personalization options.
Fresh Design Options
Alongside the Carbon Fiber Edition, the 2026 HUMMER EV SUV introduces two new exterior paint colors:
- Coastal Dune
- Auburn Matte (late availability)
These colors add to the SUV’s commanding presence, ensuring the HUMMER EV continues to stand out in both urban and rugged landscapes.
Availability
Production of the 2026 GMC HUMMER EV SUV will begin later this year at GM’s Factory ZERO Assembly Center in Detroit and Hamtramck, Michigan. Pricing and final GM-estimated range will be announced closer to launch, with availability at GMC EV dealers nationwide.
Final Thoughts
The 2026 GMC HUMMER EV SUV builds on its reputation as the world’s first all-electric supertruck by adding unmatched off-road agility, powerful bidirectional charging, and exclusive Carbon Fiber styling. Whether it’s daily commuting, long-distance EV travel, or extreme off-road adventures, the HUMMER EV SUV is designed to deliver capability, power, and luxury without compromise.
