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.

2023 Hyundai Ioniq 5 Cupholder Mega Test: Will the Nalgene bottle fit?
Tue, May 2 2023I absolutely adore the Hyundai Ioniq 5, and so was excited to spend a week with it when the EV landed in my driveway. When I first drove the Ioniq 5 in San Diego, though, I hadn't packed my favorite style water bottle: the big 32-ounce Nalgene. Despite it being the best, its sheer size makes it less ideal when trying to pack light for a short trip. It also means it doesn't fit in most cars' cupholders, but, without the bottle on hand, I'd have to wait until this new opportunity with the Ioniq 5 to find out if it passes the Nalgene check. So, let's get to it. Starting at pole position — the front cupholders — we find ourselves unlucky so far. It's not even close to fitting. Not unusual, but our first option for convenient access to megahydration is denied. In most instances, our next best bet is the molded pockets in the front door panels. Here we have success. It's quite a tight fit, so while our drink won't be knocking or rolling around, it's not as easy as it could be to retrieve while driving, and I'll probably eventually wear out the little plastic tether connecting the lid to the bottle, as that's the easiest thing to grab without looking. Still, I'll give these door holders a pass. How about the folks sitting in back? Where can they stash their Nalgenes? No surprise about it not fitting in the center armrest cupholders after our inauspicious start with the fronts. The fact that it won't fit in the door panels is disappointing. C'est la vie. But one more thing ... you might have noticed another potential stash up front in the storage cubby below the center stack. The Nalgene fits in there just fine, but a little bit of extra room means the bottle will be knocking around. It's actually a decent spot, and more accessible than the doors.
Mercedes moves R-Class production to AM General in Indiana
Tue, Jan 27 2015Go back a decade or two and you'd have seen the SUV market polarizing in opposite directions: hard-core off-roaders like the Hummer on the one hand, and passenger-focused crossovers like the Mercedes R-Class on the other. Now their fates are set to intertwine, at least as far as manufacturing is concerned. No longer producing Hummers, AM General (which designed and originally produced the Hummer) has been assigned the task of manufacturing the R-Class at its underused, 675,000 square-foot Commercial Assembly Plant in Mishawaka, IN – part of metropolitan South Bend. The decision was undertaken to allow Mercedes to free up production capacity at its plant in Tuscaloosa, AL, where it also produces the M-Class, GL-Class and C-Class, and where it will soon begin manufacturing the GLE Coupe. The vacation of the R-Class assembly line could be earmarked to make room for that new slant-roofed crossover (which was originally thought to be joining the Tuscaloosa plant as a fifth model) or could pave the way for another model to reach Alabama altogether. The multi-year arrangement to manufacture the R-Class makes AM General the first manufacturer contracted to build Mercedes-Benz vehicles in the US, but hardly the only one in the world. The G-Class – which could, incidentally, be characterized as the German equivalent of the Hummer – is built on Mercedes' behalf by Magna Steyr in Austria, and the company builds many of its passenger and commercial vehicles for local consumption under joint ventures in the Far East especially. The R-Class was first introduced in 2005, and though it's still built in America, it was removed from the company's US lineup back in 2012. However Mercedes confirms that, since 2013, it has been and remains available exclusively in China. That puts the R-Class in the rare position of being manufactured in the United States by (or now for) a foreign automaker but unavailable for sale here. AM General Selected As Mercedes-Benz First and Only Contract Manufacturer of Vehicles in the United States SOUTH BEND, Ind., Jan. 27, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- AM General LLC and Mercedes-Benz U.S. International, Inc., today announced that Mercedes-Benz has selected AM General to manufacture the Mercedes-Benz R-Class luxury vehicle at AM General's world-class 675,000 square-foot Commercial Assembly Plant.
Hummer EV to be sold at only about half of GMC dealerships
Mon, Oct 26 2020The new 1,000-horsepower Hummer EV will be sold under the GMC brand, but you won't find it in every GMC showroom. Currently, just about half of GMC's dealers have agreed to take on the electric truck, Buick GMC VP Duncan Aldred told investors on a conference call last week. According to Muscle Cars and Trucks, there are a number of reasons for the irregular availability. For one, there's the cost of upgrading dealerships to sell and service a fully electric vehicle. Stores would need to be upgraded with charging stations, and service centers would require new tools and training to work on an EV. Then there's the customer experience. At $112,595, the initial Hummer EV Edition 1 caters to a different clientele than the traditional GMC truck. The planned EV3X trim level that arrives in late 2022 and EV2X arriving in spring 2023 will start at just below $100,000 and $90,000, respectively. Some sellers believe that customers paying six figures for a vehicle will expect certain niceties that will necessitate showroom upgrades as well. Complimentary doughnuts, at least. Furthermore, not all GMC dealerships are located in areas with customers willing to shell out that much cabbage for a new vehicle, especially an EV. An $80,000 base trim will be available in 2024, so perhaps more dealers will be willing to take on the truck by then. Finally, there's the Hummer EV's no-haggle pricing. Aldred was adamant on the call that customers see the same price on the internet as they do on the paperwork. It's part of the premium dealership experience that GMC wants to provide for its well-heeled clientele. Still, GMC appears to have no problem moving all the Hummer EVs it can build. Even with its lofty price tag, all Edition 1 trucks were sold out 10 minutes after GMC's announcement. Related Video:
