GMC Hummer EV review: bummer EV

GMC has reached the point of diminishing returns when it comes to battery size and weight. It’s some 2,000 pounds or so heavier than the Rivian R1T, thanks to that giant battery, but doesn’t even return significantly more range. The Hummer is rated for 329 miles, but the Rivian’s smaller 135kWh battery can last for 314 miles, and I don’t feel like I need a runway to bring it to a stop.

There's a video online of a guy driving his Hummer EV home after buying it, and everything locked up. It wouldn't start, none of the controls worked, he couldn't even get the brakes to unlock so he could push it off the road. And he couldn't pop the hood to disconnect the 12V battery, so he could "turn it off and back on again" reboot it.
He kept saying "$128,000 dollars, and it won't even get me home!"

He seemed upset.
