A YouTuber recently demonstrated that buyers of GMC’s new electric Hummer better clear their calendars if the truck is running low on battery charge.
The video he produced demonstrated that when the $80,000+ electric vehicle is plugged in to a regular house outlet, it will take over four days to fully charge. A special 240-volt charger still takes a full day to charge the vehicle.at $86,645 — plugged in his EV at home and found out that it would take, at best, one day to charge — as long as he has special charging equipment installed.
“Right now it’s about 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday, and it says it will be full by Saturday at 10:55 [p.m.], which is four-plus days of charging. Wow,” the man said. But the man added that it will take roughly 24 hours to complete a charge with the Level Two charger — an upgraded home station that requires special equipment and installation.
“I have a Juice Box, Level Two charger, 240 volts at my garage,” he said. “Plug in Level Two charger, now it says it will be done tomorrow by 6:30 [p.m.], so about 24 hours of charging from four percent to 100 percent.The average price of a Level Two charger is around $500, which doesn’t include the cost to install it, according toAnother YouTuber — with 1.4 million followers — recently conducted a similar experiment with his brand new 2023 Ford F-150 Lightning electric pickup.
“If a truck towing 3,500 pounds can’t even go 100 miles — that is ridiculously stupid,” Tyler “Hoovie” Hoover says in his video. “This truck can’t do normal truck things. You would be stopping every hour to recharge, which would take about 45 minutes a pop, and that is absolutely not practical.”
