The 2025 GMC HUMMER EV SUV is built to take you anywhere, from bustling city streets to the open road or the rough terrain of the great outdoors. We're going to tell you about some of its amazing features that other drivers of other SUVs can only envy. 3 Amazing Features of the 2025 GMC HUMMER EV SUV Dominate the Great Outdoors The HUMMER was built to take on whatever the great outdoors throws at you and do it with style. Standard ground clearance is 12", and the Extract driving mode raises this to 16" to climb over rougher terrain with ease. You can also ford up to 32" deep water, and its approach angle of 49.6 degrees, and departure angle of 45.6 degrees, let you climb the steepest driving surfaces. The underside of the HUMMER is armored with thick steel plates to protect the battery and drive unit. You can also install the available Extreme Off-Road Package, which increases the wheels to toughened 35" tires, adds skid plates for additional underside protection, changes the drive shafts to heavy duty ball spline half shafts with electronically locking differentials, and installs front- and rear-facing underbody water-resistant cameras. Do The CrabWalk Unique among off-road vehicles, the HUMMER defies driving norms by moving vertically. CrabWalk is activated using the mode selector below the gear shift. You push and hold the left button on the selector for 6 seconds, and the CrabWalk image will appear on the 13.4" infotainment touchscreen. Continue to hold the button until the image fills up and CrabWalk is active. An orange CrabWalk icon will also appear on your driver screen. CrabWalk allows the rear wheels to mimic the movement of the front wheels and turn up to 10 degrees. Off-road, CrabWalk can get you into and out of otherwise inaccessible spots. It's also usable in the city for accessing tight parking spots or to move around certain obstacles. You can deactivate it anytime by pressing and holding the CrabWalk button. It automatically disengages if you accelerate over 25 mph. Regen on Demand This cool feature allows you to recharge the battery partially each time you hit the brakes. When you apply the brakes on a gasoline- or diesel-powered vehicle, the kinetic energy used to force the brakes to engage is lost. This doesn't happen on the HUMMER EV, as you can pull the paddles on the steering wheel and engage regenerative braking. Once activated, the electric motors in your vehicle temporarily become generators, converting the kinetic forward energy into electricity and simultaneously slowing your vehicle. This energy is then directly fed into the battery to recharge it and increase your driving range.
