    4.2 tonnes means it's not covered by most UK driving licences. If you passed after 1997, a standard class B car licence is limited to 3.5 tonnes gross vehicle weight, and you'll need to get a class C licence which covers you for up to 7.5 tonnes. Can't see them selling many over here if it ever gets a UK release.

    • @MrHendrikje
      @MrHendrikje 2 місяці тому +5

      Same here in the Netherlands, Here, its also 3,5 tonnes of total weight.
      This means if you get a vehicle that is 3,3 tonnes, you can at best take another human and maybe a rucksack but thats about it.
      The netherlands was looking into extending the weightlimit on drivinglicenses based on EV weight, so I think they were moving it up to 4.2 tonnes.
      But our DMV (RDW) will likely still require you to get a C-drivers license for a behemoth like this based on its size and capabilities alone.

On top of that, the sheer amount of _technology_ this thing is packed with is just bonkers; I see the Hummer EV as basically the most balls-to-the-wall, excess-minded technical showcase of what an EV can be. It's a halo product, and I think it absolutely deserves respect in both getting people more interested in EVs and showing off their potential. This boy is an _ambassador_ for EVs.

So you'd only need 271 250w panels (actually double that in the winter) to charge it daily. You can pick these panels up for around $500CAD so only $135,000 in total. Plus the 750m2 land to put them on. Seems reasonable.

      I find this is a common theme among a lot of bigger trucks and SUV's. They're not actually all that big inside compared to their massive chonk everywhere else. They're just massive everywhere else because they're so heavy and they need to be able to roll over and not crush you with the roof collapsing. At best they're just a little deeper so you end up feeling lower down than you actually are.

      @@furinick The rise of massive SUV's and trucks is because in the US the tax is lower on them, so you can sell a big ass truck for slightly more than a sedan but have a much higher profit margin. They have different efficiency requirements too. The bigger and heavier they are the easier it is to get within the regulations, which is dumb. They need federal level standards and they need to close these silly loopholes.
      They're also becoming more and more common because car manufacturers just simply aren't making and selling much of anything else. They even make a monster sized Aygo now which is utterly insane. You really have to go out of your way to find something more reasonably sized, or buy second hand from when they weren't all obnoxiously huge.
      It's like a few years ago when TV makers were saying everyone wants 3D TV's because that's mostly what they buy, ignoring the bit where they made hardly any without the 3D feature so the only thing you can get with a newer panel was 3D, or now with "smart" TV's. You can't really buy a dumb TV any more that's just a good panel with a bunch of HDMI inputs unless you just buy a monitor, which don't come in living room sizes.
