I had been actively looking for a Hummer EV, but was only wanting GM's Supernova Blue color, only to come to find out that the 2025 configurator now dropped it as of last week.

But the new Hummer color Graphite Blue Metallic looks very much akin to Rivian Storm Blue.

Thoughts?

Can't wait to see a Hummer in this color let alone a G² Rivian.

Hummers problem is they cant shake the stigma. It still haunts them, even with this model.

I think Doug DeMuro said it best. I'll paraphrase: Hummers have typically been bought be anti-EV nerds, and EVs are typically bought by anti-Hummer nerds, so nobody wants them (OP's search notwithstanding).

That's kinda a repeated theme with people who review the Hummer.

I like the vehicle a lot, but it's so funny how vastly different the Hummer SUT and Rivian R1T are. I'll take either in my driveway, but I'm not sold on the Hummer entirely yet, the R1T and the G² changes has my money for now.
