GM for having ditched the chapter of the civilian vehicle HMMWV, H1 has given itself a new ground to roll on, by churning out off-road vehicles to renew new dealerships in places where such vehicles are more of a need than luxury. By doing so, it can do good to remove the negative tag of “ American Excess”. As the smaller H3 leads the pack in sales, we believe the Hummers to hit the auto market are going to be developed from scratch that too from basic platforms. To compete with a machine like Jeep Wrangler, not only we think so, but also do the officials of GM. However, we are up for an intriguing script given Hummer needs to do that it hadn’t done anytime earlier- marketing a product which is its namesake originally.

The powerful tires provide great traction across desert land or smooth surfaces, and the interior of the car is designed specifically to suit the driver’s needs. The new H2 and H3 models of the Hummer have broken all bounds and come up with the most specifically designed jeep in the history of the Hummer. With powerful hydraulic and disk brake versions, the car comes to the stop on just a nudge of your foot and the acceleration capabilities of the Hummer are far more than a normal jeep or truck. AM General have developed the perfect luxury and military vehicle, mixing the perfect blend of luxury and power in one vehicle.
The engine of the vehicle is extremely powerful, and with water fording capabilities, the car even functions when half submerged in water. The Hummer is a bit bigger than SUV in size, which might cause problems in parking, driving or turning in small spaces but the car is beautifully designed and provides power and luxury in one go. Drivers will certainly not be disappointed with their choice and the car is bound to raise a few eyebrows when the new model comes out.
General Motors were deemed to dismantle the brand, due to their bankruptcy, but opted against it to investigate in selling it off. However, General Motors have now decided to simply retire the Hummer brand as the car suffered in sales due to its poor fuel economy and rising oil prices.

Hummer modified in China at the 2008 Auto China

Some Americans may not be comfortable with the idea, but China is a force to be reckoned with. And now it might even save about 3,000 American jobs.
General Motors has a tentative agreement with Sichuan Tengzhong Heavy Industrial Machinery Co. of China, which plans to purchase Hummer. If the deal goes through, the new owner of Hummer would contract GM to continue building the Hummer H3 and H3T at their Shreveport, La., plant at least through 2010.
That move, along with saving dealership jobs, would save thousands of manufacturing jobs. It’s hard to find fault in a sale that benefits newly bankrupt GM and saves American jobs.
Even so, it’s hard to look past the irony of an iconic American military-vehicle-turned-civilian-SUV being owned by a Chinese company. We might as well sell the New York Yankees and our patent on apple pie to the Chinese government, too.
What I’m having trouble understanding is how Hummer’s new owner intends to make money. Hummer’s sales dropped nearly 70% in the first four months of this year, and I’m not sure Chinese ownership is a change that will lend itself to sales improvements in this country.
Maybe that’s the point, though. GM has had success with Buick in China, and maybe Sichuan Tengzhong plans to do the same with Hummer. If that’s the case, it’s probably only a matter of time before Hummers will be shipped with the words “Made in China” engraved into the sheet metal.
I guess I should just quit complaining. An Indian company owns Jaguar, and now a Chinese company will likely own Hummer. Maybe it’s time for a U.S. company to buy Kia and complete the circle in this bizzaro new world.
