Bronco Raptor vs New Hummer EV comparison look

[Lab00Rat]

Just going to say it...

Only one of them looks like it could drive away, the other stuck for a few more hours.

But you'll see them parallel park with the crab walk.

Is that even possible? Looks like it wouldn't give more than 15 degrees of turn, so it would have to be a long procedure. But would be cool to see one day.

The crab walk in the Hummer truck feels like you are skidding across an icy road when driving. It messed my head up. Lol. As far as parallel parking, the rear wheels on the truck turn with the steering when in normal mode. I was fortunate to inspect and ride in one. It is interesting for sure.

Two Sick Vehicles!
The Braptor able to drive while the EV Charges!

i have a raptor and a hummer ev edition one truck. theyre both fn ridiculous but clearly in very different ways... any questions feel free to ask.

How has no one mentioned the 3,330+ lbs weight difference?

Just gonna say that GM claims a curb weight of 9063 lbs to the BRaptor's 5733 lbs.

And with all that extra weight, it can haul a whopping 300 lbs more payload(in the cab/bed) than the BRaptor.

The Hummer looks great, not going to lie.
But, why do I have this funny image in my head of a bunch of new Hummers Crabwalking back to the dealerships because they got stuck in that mode somehow?

You will see exactly ZERO Hummer EVs off-roading, pretty much ever... Too wide, too expensive. 0% off road vehicle, 1000% pavement princess.

Have you seen a lot of forum members taking their Raptors off-road? 9 out of 10 posts I see are from someone’s driveway but I hope to see some cool content once deliveries increase.

Don’t mean to play devils advocate but want to make sure we’re not too high on our own supply. Both the Raptor and Hummer EV are incredible vehicles that have a similar type of buyer.

Cool comparison. Gives both of them a bit of perspective on size vs the other.

Hummer looks more futuristic and sleek, BRaptor looks like it is going to insist you hand over your lunch money.

I don't think you're going to be bullying anyone while you call yourself BRaptor.

I would purchase a Braptor any day of the week compared to any SUV EV. And with a clean conscience regardless what these earth huggers have to say about saving the planet. Fill-r-up and lets roll baby. LOL

I would and did purchase a Braptor. As for EV, its not much if any cleaner than ICE when you consider everything need to produce the vehicle, and everything required to dispose of it at end of life.

Also, for me range is a huge issue. We went to stay with friends in Orange beach for a few days. 8 hour drive for us. Over ten for them. They had to stop to charge, and in the Rural south not a lot of rapid charge stations, they had to wait an hour to charge at one until a charger was empty. I'm not owning something I cant drive 600 or more miles with out charging as my closest relative is 550 mile.

Just gonna say that GM claims a curb weight of 9063 lbs to the BRaptor's 5733 lbs.

And with all that extra weight, it can haul a whopping 300 lbs more payload(in the cab/bed) than the BRaptor.

That is very heavy, almost 2K more than a 1 ton crew cab diesel truck.

I have seen several take their Braptor off road. Mine has been off road, nothing serious yet. Winch and mounting plate are in garage, waiting for camera relocation kit to install. Have a trip planned to Drummond Island in June to wheel for a week with my two brothers and their jeeps.

Oh I hear you on that... I've been down on the posers here too. Buying something JUST because you think it looks cool is about the dumbest thing. I don't want to get into that too much though because I'll get accused of gate-keeping...

The thing with the Hummer EV is that it really won't be a comparable to the Raptor in off-road ability. Too much body. When you actually wheel there are so many situations that come up: huge rocks you have to squeeze by, uphill with a bend that has a tree you get kicked into,... I've peeled-off 2 of my SAS fender flares on my Badlands over the last year. With the Raptor there will be some aftermarket solution for tucked flares, no way you can do that with the Hummer EV. Plus adding rock rails, bumpers,... The Hummer EV is just like the 4-Runner, Defender, or any other "off-road car". You may see one or 2 out there off-road, but it will never compare to the Wranger or Bronco.

Been wheeling for close to 20 years, ask me how many H2s and H3s I've ever seen out there (not very stinkin many).
