Hummer eBike

The powerful battery beast we know as the GMC Hummer EV has been transformed into a two-wheel version thanks to a collaboration between eBike manufacturer Recon Power Bikes and General Motors. The new GMC HUMMER EV eBike features a pair of Bafang hub motors to provide all-wheel drive, and gives users access to three riding modes: rear-wheel drive, front-wheel drive, and all-wheel drive. Equipped with a 48-V LG lithium battery pack, the mighty eBike offers between 40 and 50 miles (64 and 80 km) of range in RWD Cruise mode. Top speed is between 20 and 30 miles per hour, depending on mode and conditions. It also includes a pair of four-piston hydraulic disc brakes, five pedal-assist levels, a thrumb-throttle, and fat bike tires that give it traction across a range of conditions.
