GMC Hummer and Earthcruiser, an extreme electric utility vehicle

American adventure camper specialist, Earthcruiser is entering the electric age with a major innovation based on the GMC Hummer pickup.

At first glance, this Hummer may seem to be equipped only with a roof tent. But from EarthCruiser, America’s leading specialist in campers, all-terrain vehicles and pick-up cells, we have a right to expect more.

The cell, built of carbon fiber, which fits in the image of the GMC Hummer, has a pop-up roof that allows a height of 2 meters inside. In the rear dumpster-like area, there is a living space with sink, table, fridge, induction hob. A water reservoir of 13.5 liters (51 liters) is available for the sink, but also for indoor and outdoor showers. For good measure, water can be heated. The raised bed also provides storage and other storage spaces are laid out. All functions will be controlled by the touch screen on the board.

All this of course runs on electricity, but without any connection with the main battery of the machine. The EarthCruiser setup has its own 6 kWh (12 volt) battery and 605 W of solar panels. According to the manufacturer, this is enough to travel for a whole week without any electrical connection. In fact, in this period, it will not be necessary to move the monster that is very Hummer. Because with its use, it cannot last a week.

EarthCruiser’s first electric success will certainly not be its last. Other electric pictures on the American market certainly provide a good market in the future.
