It appears rumors of Hummer’s death have been greatly exaggerated, at least when it comes to this year’s SEMA show. While GM’s off-road brand faces being sold, shut down, or possibly merged with Jeep, Hummer does actually have a pair of new vehicles at dealers in the form of a V-8-powered 2008 H3 Alpha and 2009 H3T crew-cab pickup. And now the General is showing them off a little with a pair of special concepts at its SEMA stand, along with a third H3 built by our neighbors over at Four Wheeler magazine.
New Hummer CEO James Taylor calls the brand’s concepts — the Weekend Warrior and H3 X Concept — “thought starters for enthusiasts who want to express themselves,” as both primarily use factory accessories and aftermarket parts to show what can be done to the rugged haulers with “a few weekends in the garage.” Based on a H3T Alpha, the Weekend Warrior concept includes several GM Performance parts that give its 5.3L, 300-hp V-8 an additional 70 hp, including LS2 cylinder heads, a higher-lift camshaft, and a 3.5-in. exhaust system. For truly Baja-worthy handling, the Weekend Warrior also receives several suspension components including as Light Racing JounceShocks, high-performance brakes from DBA, and 35-in.-tall tires on special matte-black 20-in. wheels from Hummer’s own accessory catalog.
Of course, no SEMA showcar is complete without a major dose of bling, so the H3T Weekend Warrior also comes with custom Baja Orange Metallic paint, a body-color upper grille, and custom hood graphics. In addition, the lower grille, side mirrors, door handles, and fuel door all sport a satin-metal finish, and off-road lamps are mounted on the grille and roof. Most of these upgrades are standard Hummer accessories; however, the black-leather-trimmed cabin with orange stitching and carbon-fiber instrument panel accents are not.
Hummer describes the H3 X Concept as “a proposal for the ultimate H3 X,” taking a standard H3 X Alpha and sprucing it up with unique 18-in. wheels and 35-in.-tall tires, black chrome finish on its shiny bits (similar to the recent Black Chrome Edition H2), and body-color rear bumper extensions. Inside, the H3 X Concept includes black leather trim with orange stitching on the armrests and shift knob, along with custom floormats and a Hummer accessory headrest DVD entertainment system. Power remains unchanged, but the showcar sports Canyon Metallic paint from PPG.
The third — and final — hauler to grace Hummer’s SEMA stand is an H3 Alpha developed by the staff of Four Wheeler magazine, dubbed Project Trailhugger. The Trailhugger (not to be confused with tree-hugger) is modified for increased off-road capability while maintaining reasonable comfort and fuel-economy and features a raft of hard-core accessories, including nitrogen-charged Rod Hall Racing piggyback reservoir-type performance shocks, flat-black GT Simulock 16-in. wheels, a remote perimeter lighting system, and a winch. For a unique appearance, the Trailhugger is also “de-glossed,” meaning the H3’s chrome trim is painted flat black and its paint modified with a special flattening agent.
There’s no doubt times are tough for Hummer, as GM is struggling to find a buyer for the rugged brand. And while GM’s merger talks with Chrysler could potentially throw the division a lifeline, given the current economic uncertainty, there’s also a possibility that the latest Hummer concepts to bow at SEMA might also be the last.
