Hummer H2 Canepa Design.
SEMA Show Truck
This 2006 Hummer H2 was built & shown as the featured vehicle for General Motors at the recent SEMA Show in Las
Vegas, Nevada. Built from a brand new 2006 H2, this vehicle was completely disassembled to make extensive
modifications to the roof and interior. The roof was opened and restructured to install a full length electric
sliding sunroof. The floor was extensively modified to allow for the installation of two factory, full power,
bucket seats in the center aisle. The two seats were located more than a 12 inches rearward to allow for expanded
legroom and reclining capability. The entire cabin of the vehicle was sound deadened to eliminate noise and heat.
Over 1500 man hours invested in the design and build of this one of a kind H2! Over $50,000 in upgrade parts alone!
Performance
Performance comes from a 500 HP inter-cooled supercharged engine system including a fuel system upgrade,
re-programed ECU, air intake and filter, in addition to a complete "Catback" stainless steel exhaust system
including brushed stainless steel exhaust tips.
Wheels/Tires
The Canepa Design H2 stands on custom 20" forged alloy wheels with 37" x 20" on-road/off-road radial tires.
Suspension/Brakes
Custom Edelbrock "Xtreme Travel" remote reservoir gas shocks and Canepa Design front and rear sway bars
dramatically improve the handling. The New four wheel Brembo brake system includes the largest calipers and rotors
ever built.
Exterior
The exterior monochromatic design starts with a custom formulated color "Chestnut Bronze Metallic". Over 80
individual body items that were black on a stock Hummers was refinished in either gloss or matte body color. They
include; front and rear bumper cover assemblies, front and rear rock guard fascias, hood vent, roof rails and
windshield pillar moldings, mirror assemblies, door handle bezels, taillight surrounds and pillar vents, custom
Canepa Design wheel opening flairs, lower rocker moldings, rear hatch license panel, etc. The monochromatic theme
is accented by special titanium plated appointments including; the front grille, custom billet fuel door, hood
handles, side cowl vents and rear-body "Hummer" logo.
The side and rear glass is double paned with an insulated membrane between the glass to eliminate noise and
dramatically improve security. This glass was first introduced at SEMA in this vehicle. Other options include
back-up camera system, chrome plated tow hooks (front and rear with polished stainless steel hardware), powder
coated front lower skidplate, power retractable steps, front and rear hitch covers with lock, etc.
Interior
The entire interior was redesigned by Canepa with 100% leather trim throughout. The leather was custom dyed and
embossed by Edelman Leather in New York. The "rust" primary color with graphite "diamond-plate" seat inserts and
accent trim enhance the 4 bucket seats, door panels, center console, cargo trim panels, lower dash, armrests and
door pulls, pillar-trim panels, overhead console and visors, etc. "Rust" color Rolls-Royce carpet is used
"wall-to-wall" including door pockets and rear storage compartments. Matching Alcantera suede material is used on
the custom fabricated headliner. Final interior touches include titanium shifter and bezel, speaker covers,
interior door handles and vents surrounds, Keith Collins sculptured floor carpets and "soft touch" interior trim
finishes.
The mobile electronics package includes three 9" integrated LCD screens, 10 disk remote controlled DVD changer,
wireless headphones, and optional surround sound. The stereo system upgrade includes a custom JL Audio subwoofer,
amp and speaker system. Backup camera is integrated into factory screen.

What the electric Hummer's size and weight means for its efficiency
Sat, Dec 3 2022The 2022 GMC Hummer EV Edition 1. Tim Levin/Insider If you think driving a pint-sized Nissan Leaf is as good for the planet as driving a huge electric Hummer, think again. The GMC Hummer EV uses significantly more electricity than other EVs, meaning it produces more pollution upstream. The electric Hummer weighs 9,000 pounds and its battery weighs as much as a Honda Civic. The new electric Hummer rolls through town without a deafening engine rumble or a cloud of toxic fumes, but it doesn't exactly tread lightly. The colossal truck weighs an astonishing 9,000 pounds. (Think two Toyota Tacomas, three Honda Civics, or 24 Shaquille O'Neals.) Moreover, the GMC Hummer EV is in many ways a supersized gas guzzler for a new era. It repackages many of the same flaws of hulking SUVs and trucks of years past — and proves not all zero-emission cars are created equal. EVs can be energy guzzlers too On the whole, electric cars use less energy than gas-powered ones. But they aren't all equally efficient. No surprise here: The Hummer needs more electricity than any other EV on the market to move its elephantine frame. The Environmental Protection Agency rates the pickup at 47 MPGe (miles per gallon of gasoline-equivalent). For comparison, the Tesla Model 3 sedan is nearly three times as efficient, earning a rating of 132 MPGe. The Ford F-150 Lightning, another electric truck, gets 70 MPGe. This has real consequences: Since the US gets 61% of its energy from oil, coal, and natural gas, the more electricity a car needs, the more pollution it creates upstream. As the Union of Concerned Scientists put it: "Both EV cars and trucks are much cleaner than their gasoline counterparts, but electric trucks are responsible for more global warming emissions than electric cars simply because trucks are larger and heavier." The 2022 GMC Hummer EV Edition 1. Tim Levin/Insider The Hummer EV is also resource-intensive to manufacture, requiring a ginormous (and weighty) battery to give people the 300-plus miles of range they desire. You could produce three Chevrolet Bolts with the same battery cells consumed by one Hummer.
Are orphan cars better deals?
Wed, Dec 30 2015Most folks don't know a Saturn Aura from an Oldsmobile Aurora. Those of you who are immersed in the labyrinth of automobilia know that both cars were testaments to the mediocrity that was pre-bankruptcy General Motors, and that both brands are now long gone. But everybody else? Not so much. By the same token, there are some excellent cars and trucks that don't raise an eyebrow simply because they were sold under brands that are no longer being marketed. Orphan brands no longer get any marketing love, and because of that they can be alarmingly cheap. Case in point, take a look at how a 2010 Saturn Outlook compares with its siblings, the GMC Acadia and Buick Enclave. According to the Manheim Market Report, the Saturn will sell at a wholesale auto auction for around $3,500 less than the comparably equipped Buick or GMC. Part of the reason for this price gap is that most large independent dealerships, such as Carmax, make it a point to avoid buying cars with orphaned badges. Right now if you go to Carmax's site, you'll find that there are more models from Toyota's Scion sub-brand than Mercury, Saab, Pontiac, Hummer, and Saturn combined. This despite the fact that these brands collectively sold in the millions over the last ten years while Scion has rarely been able to realize a six-figure annual sales figure for most of its history. That is the brutal truth of today's car market. When the chips are down, used-car shoppers are nearly as conservative as their new-car-buying counterparts. Unfamiliarity breeds contempt. Contempt leads to fear. Fear leads to anger, and pretty soon you wind up with an older, beat-up Mazda MX-5 in your driveway instead of looking up a newer Pontiac Solstice or Saturn Sky. There are tons of other reasons why orphan cars have trouble selling in today's market. Worries about the cost of repair and the availability of parts hang over the industry's lost toys like a cloud of dust over Pigpen. Yet any common diagnostic repair database, such as Alldata, will have a complete framework for your car's repair and maintenance, and everyone from junkyards to auto parts stores to eBay and Amazon stock tens of thousands of parts. This makes some orphan cars mindblowingly awesome deals if you're willing to shop in the bargain bins of the used-car market. Consider a Suzuki Kizashi with a manual transmission. No, really.
2024 GMC Hummer EV SUV Edition 1 back on the market after charity auction
Mon, Feb 27 2023The charity auctions at this year's Barrett-Jackson event in Arizona pulled in the usual millions for good causes. Nevertheless, there were no shocking result among the sales like the 2023 Chevrolet Corvette VIN 001 that hammered for $3.7 million in 2022 or the 2022 GMC Hummer EV pickup VIN 001 that hammered for $2.5 million in 2021. In fact, the best result for hammer prices this year was a GMC Hummer EV SUV VIN001 that brought in $500,000, quite a ways down on its bedded sibling. Seems the purchaser decided a little bit of battery-electric arbitrage might be the play, because the SUV is going back up for sale. As caught by CarBuzz, a new member to the Hummer Chat forum started a thread, "Barrett Jackson VIN #1 SUV available." According to the poster who calls himself Bill, "Tread Lightly, the charity organization that the funds went to, aligns well with our company and we were excited to participate with them, however, the Hummer should go to a true enthusiast or collector." The post says Barrett-Jackson "is interested in" putting the Hummer in front of audiences at the Palm Beach auction event April 13-15 or at the Vegas event June 22-24. The vehicle's apparently been built and will be titled in Arizona. It's a loaded Edition 1 in Moonshot Green Matte with a Lunar Shadow interior and three motors making roughly 830 horsepower. There are transparent sky panels that open to create the open-air "Infinity Roof," 14-speaker Bose audio, Super Cruise, Crab Walk and Watts to Freedom mode. Naturally, the seller is willing to part with this bit of history before April and at first said he is ready to "consider a reasonable offer for the vehicle." We're not sure if that means more than $500,000. If so, and without the charity component — the reason these vehicles bring in so much money so often — we suspect such an asking price would be a tough draw. A look at Cars & Bids results for GMC Hummer EV pickups in Edition 1 trim shows prices that regularly surpassed $200,000 last summer are now down to around $160,000. However, two posts later, Bill says his company is "open to all offers." The Hummer EV SUV Edition 1 retail version will reach begin reaching owners by the end of Q1 this year, which isn't far away. It cost $105,595 when it could be reserved.
