A Hummer EV pickup truck has been seen driving around by Nissan engineers.
Any guesses for why they'd be using a Hummer EV? Maybe an electric version of the Titan?
The GMC Hummer EV introduces a new chapter of GM off-roaders, mating The General’s latest all-electric propulsion technologies with the rough-and-ready legacy of the Hummer nameplate. Interestingly, Nissan was recently spotted benchmarking the GMC Hummer EV, even though it currently does not offer any sort of rival. Which begs the question – why is Nissan benchmarking the GMC Hummer EV?
As we can see here, this GMC Hummer EV Pickup is finished in Interstellar White. As
GM Authority covered previously, all GMC Hummer EV Pickup Edition 1 models are finished exclusively in Interstellar White, with 2023 model-year vehicles offering seven exterior paint options total.
So then, Nissan has a GMC Hummer EV Pickup for benchmarking. What exactly is the Japanese automaker up to?
Well, suffice to say, it’s unclear at this point. At present, Nissan doesn’t offer a competitor for the GMC Hummer EV Pickup and, for now at least, harbors no known plans to develop such a vehicle. The only Nissan trucks on offer in the U.S. right now are ICE-powered, including the Nissan Frontier, which was redesigned for the 2022 model year, and the Nissan Titan, which is poised for discontinuation with no clear replacement.
