However the problem with the H3 (apart from the obvious – Hummer factor) is that the current model (set to go on sale in the next few months) will be available with only a 3.7-litre inline five-cylinder petrol engine, producing peak power of 180kW @ 5600rpm and peak torque of 328Nm@4600rpm. Now that might sound like a lot of power till you realize that the weight to power distribution is the equivalent of a miniature pony pulling Kim Beazly up a hill. Not that great.
However there is a new Hummer H3 coming out next year, the Hummer H3 Alpha, powered by an engine more suited to the Hummer image, the 5.3L V8 engine puts out 224 kW and 438 Nm.
