Hummer HX Concept


With its unique design and a compact Hummer, go-anywhere driving ethic, the HUMMER HX concept challenges the hierarchy of the track. HUMMER displayed the nimble, reconfigurable off-road in the Salon of 2008 North American International Auto.

More compact than a HUMMER H3 - 81 inches (2057 mm) wide with a wheelbase of 103 inches (2616 mm) - the HX concept is an open air, two-door off-road vehicle that packs off-road feel is HUMMER legendary, with an easily convertible body that acclimates to varied trail conditions, cargo needs or passenger whims. Its design is based on ideas developed by a trio of young designers who are new to the HUMMER studio.

"The HX is HUMMER's vision an agile, trail ready, open-air vehicle that fits the lifestyle of those who need or want to drive off-road," said Martin Walsh, General Manager HUMMER. "Of course, carries exceptional off-road capability and distinctive style, which all Hummers are known."

The HX offers an open-air driving experience via a pair of removable roof panels above the driver and front passenger, and a modular, removable rear roof. With the roof panels and roof, the HX becomes a true convertible.

Easy to remove the roof panels and rear roof allows the rapid conversion of a closed vehicle open. The HX also was designed a series of figures, so this is a versatile vehicle, it can be configured to SUT (with the roof removed), an elegant Slant-back or a traditional, wagon-like design that offers space load a little 'more.

External targeted

The design of the HX was driven by input from three young designers who were new to GM and the HUMMER design studio. As part of their "initiation", they were responsible for developing designs for a smaller, younger HUMMER and the HX is a direct result of their creativity. The HX concept is based on a designer original illustrations, but incorporates the best ideas and elements from other designs.
"HUMMER appeals to young people around the world and served as a perfect job for our first new talent," said Ed Welburn, vice president of Global Design. "Today's graduates in design schools are ready to start running. The HUMMER design challenge gave our newest designers an opportunity to race."

Inside and out, the HX view purposeful aesthetic that, from the original project ran out of clay models, developed, only six months.

"This is the Hummer design language reduced to the essence," said David Rojas, creative designer. "The HX has an aggressive appearance and great proportions, with beauty lying in its functional austerity."

Outside, the theme of light and is reflected in the appearance of exposed suspension components including billet aluminum CNC relieves lighting, cleaning and adjustment, bodywork and minimal trim. The theme is a bit to the extreme when the roof panels, roof, fender flares and doors are removed.

Indexes classic HUMMER design for HX instantly recognizable, including round headlamps located in square housings, windshield law profile, minimal overhangs, hood vents and prominent air intakes. The air intakes are functional and feed a V-6 engine under the hood while the hood vents are active - they articulate to allow hot air to escape under the hood.

And while the headlamps and grille are clearly HUMMER rates have evolved on the HX with a "chopped circle" motif. Slots grille and headlights, as well as elements of its interior, have the appearance of circles or ovals that have been cut at the top and bottom, creating a unique appearance that speaks to the aesthetics of deliberate vehicle.

"The 'cut' circles are larger, heavy components that were trimmed to meet the compact HX," said Rojas.

And while it is unadorned foreign decorations, outside HX is equipped with features that speak to HUMMER legacy of technology and innovation, including HID headlamps with focusing rings that adjust automatically when switched on - just like the self-made Focus SLR camera type. LED technology is used in lamps blinkers front and rear lights.

Inspired interiors Aeronautically

Seating plane of inspiration for integrated, off-road-ready tools, the HUMMER HX inner beauty that lies in his deliberate intention. It was inspired by the functional elements and light in the plane.

"Aeronautical parts are designed for both light and strong, that is the feeling exuded by the HX's cabin," said Stuart Norris, interior design director. "There is no point in a cut or appearance - it is an appropriate design that convey beauty through strength."
Strengthening stripped of essence feel, matte olive color was moved inside largely covered with sheet metal panels. The color is accented with pressed or extruded aluminum components, such as handles, switches and other necessary components.

Promote aviation influence the dashboard, which uses a presentation of extruded aluminum cross-vehicle beam from its foundation. In the bar, the instrument panel and other vital controls are mounted, and also has a range of unique retreat that offers greater storage capacity.

"The dashboard is an element of style for the HX, and removing the top cover reveals a design ethic that enhances the design side of the base vehicle," says Norris. "With the cover removed, the interior is expressed more of a basic essence - and the structure beneath the cover is beautiful for those who appreciate finely crafted metal."

A rubberized floor and ballistic nylon-material covering on the instrument panel and other interior components reinforces the functional aesthetic.

Seating and console details

Like aircraft seats, the HX seats are built on a lightweight framework with minimal components that have holes strength improves lighting and appliances or triangulations. They are mounted on exposed, aircraft-style tracks and trimmed with a waterproof neoprene material.

The HX seats four, a pair of bucket-type seats in the second row. The rear seats mimic the front seats can be removed from the design and generate more cargo space. All seats have four-point racing style seat belts.

The inner ring of the seat in the front seats is located beneath the outer edges of a center console in sight. The console offers exceptional storage capability and houses a single lever goes down and the road when the vehicle is parked - also hiding it the engine start button. Spring has a deck that appears when the controller is ready to select a gear.

The console also houses a place to relax phones, MP3 players and iPod or iPhone. In fact, there is no conventional radio HX-only speakers. Passengers can connect an iPod or similar device, the USB connector to play music in the HX.

"From the console to the cargo space behind the seats, there are simply opportunities for storage in the HX indescribable," said Norris. "It's like a backpack with four wheels and is equipped with needs."

Hummer H3

Hummer H3
The Hummer H3 was a crossover SUV/Sport Utility Truck from General Motors' Hummer division introduced in 2005 based on the GMT355 underpinning the Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon compact pickup trucks. Produced at GM's Shreveport, Louisiana factory and the Port Elizabeth plant in South Africa the H3 was the smallest of the Hummer models, and the first to be built by GM. It was available either as a traditional midsize SUV or as a midsize pickup known as the H3T.

H3 In The International Market
In 2007 GM South Africa launched their first Hummer production facility in Port Elizabeth, this move introduced the Hummer brand to the South African market and also somewhat lightened the load of the Shreveport factory in Louisiana.Most of the South African made Hummer H3's were imported to England because of the right hand drive factor. The plant manufactured only the Hummer H3, and builds for the South African market as well as the markets of Asia and Europe. This plant also manufactured a right hand drive version for the Australian market between 2007 and 2009. Throughout Australia, Hummer was distributed by GM Holden dealerships.


Hummer H3

Hummer H3
Powertrains
The H3 was launched with a 3.5 liter straight-5 cylinder L52 engine that produced 220 hp (160 kW) and 225 ft�lbf (305 N�m) of torque and was mated to a standard five-speed manual transmission or an optional Hydra-Matic 4L60-E four-speed automatic transmission. In 2007 this engine was replaced by 3.7 liter LLR that produced 242 hp (180 kW) and 242 ft�lbf (328 N�m) of torque, figures that were revised in 2009 to 239 hp (178 kW) and 241 ft�lbf (327 N�m). Under revised EPA testing standards when equipped with either transmission this straight-5 engine achieves 14 mpg-US (17 l/100 km) in the city and 18 mpg-US (13 l/100 km) on the highway with a combined average of 15 mpg-US (16 l/100 km). Available solely with the automatic transmission, a 5.3 liter LH8 V8 producing 300 hp (220 kW) and 320 ft�lbf (430 N�m) of torque was added in 2008 for the Alpha model of the H3 and returns slightly lower fuel economy estimated at 13 mpg-US (18 l/100 km) in the city, 16 mpg-US (15 l/100 km) on the highway, with a combined average of 14 mpg-US (17 l/100 km).
The H3 and H3T are being discontinued after the 2010 model year as GM is winding down the entire Hummer brand. Their cousins, the Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon, are reportedly being redesigned for the 2012 model year.

Plug-in Hybrid
An April 2009 Engadget column reported that Raser Technologies and FEV had built a prototype plug-in hybrid H3 that could achieve 100 MPG given enough mains power. This vehicle, known later as the Electric Hummer H3, was then showcased by California State Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger at a press conference at the State Capitol in Sacramento as part of a campaign to promote greener vehicles.
Hummer H3
Capabilities
The H3 features a two-speed, electronically controlled full-time four-wheel drive system that is suitable for both on-road and off-road driving in all conditions, with electronic locking front and rear differentials optionally available. Like its larger sibling the Hummer H2, the H3 can ford 24 inches (610 mm) of water (tested in depths up to 31 in/790 mm) at a speed of 5 miles per hour (8.0 km/h) and 16 inches (410 mm) of water at a speed of 20 miles per hour (32 km/h). Standard ground clearance is measured at 9.7 inches (250 mm) while the approach, departure, and breakover angles are measured at 37.4�, 34.7�, and 22.1� respectively, allowing the H3 to scale a 16-inch (410 mm) vertical wall and negotiate grades of 60% and side slopes of 40%. Though fore and aft recovery hooks are standard, a trailer hitch and wiring harness are optional.
Maximum towing capacities are 3,000 pounds (1,400 kg) for the straight-5 with manual transmission, 4,500 pounds (2,000 kg) for the straight-5 with automatic transmission, and 6,000 pounds (2,700 kg) for the V8 with automatic transmission. Cargo volume with the second-row seats in the upright position is 25.0 cubic feet (0.71 m3), which expands to a maximum of 62.8 cubic feet (1.78 m3) when the seats are folded down. V8 models feature the lightest maximum payload capacity of just over 1,100 pounds (500 kg) while straight-5, manual transmission models allow the greatest payload at 1,300 pounds (590 kg).

Safety
Electronic stability control, anti-lock four-wheel disc brakes, brake-controlled traction control, LATCH child-seat anchors, and tire-pressure monitoring are all standard features on the H3. Side-curtain airbags were optional until 2008 when they were made standard across. The H3 is rated Acceptable, the second highest rating, by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety in both frontal offset and side-impact crashes (with side airbags) and Poor, the lowest rating, for rear-crash protection/head restraints.

Japan's 213 Motoring Builds the Ultimate Six Hummer H2


For those still living in 2005, 213 Motoring (Japanese tuner Calwing's US division) has got just what you need to get to the prom in style: a supremely decked-out 6-wheeled H2.

The metropolitan tank gets a huge dose of Extenze to fit that extra axle (and super-size the interior), a body kit, a new exhaust system and a dozen extra lights on its nose.

Inside is just what people have come to expect from limousines: leather, plush carpeting, big TV screens, and liquor. Just what you need to get the party started.
