The Hummer EV SUV offers an available driver-adjustable suspension system. It allows the driver to choose between an extra-supple ride, reducing fatigue on long trips, or a sport setting, which allows maximum control for tricky roads or off-road. The Bolt EUV’s suspension doesn’t offer adjustable shock absorbers.

The Hummer EV SUV 2X/3X has a standard automatic front and rear load leveling suspension to keep ride height level with a heavy load or when towing. The Hummer EV SUV’s height leveling suspension allows the driver to raise ride height for better off-road clearance and then lower it again for easier entering and exiting and better on-road handling. The Bolt EUV doesn’t offer a load leveling suspension.

For a smoother ride and more stable handling, the Hummer EV SUV’s wheelbase is 21.4 inches longer than on the Bolt EUV (126.7 inches vs. 105.3 inches).

For greater off-road capability the Hummer EV SUV 2 has a 4.6 inches greater minimum ground clearance than the Bolt EUV (10.2 vs. 5.6 inches), allowing the Hummer EV SUV to travel over rougher terrain without being stopped or damaged. The Hummer EV SUV 2X/3X Extract’s minimum ground clearance is 10.4 inches higher than on the Bolt EUV (16 vs. 5.6 inches).

Chassis

The front grille of the Hummer EV SUV uses electronically controlled shutters to close off airflow and reduce drag when less engine cooling is needed. This helps improve highway fuel economy. The Bolt EUV doesn’t offer active grille shutters.

Passenger Space

The Hummer EV SUV has 2.5 inches more front headroom, 1.3 inches more front legroom, 9.1 inches more front hip room, 9.3 inches more front shoulder room, .6 inches more rear headroom, 10 inches more rear hip room and 12 inches more rear shoulder room than the Bolt EUV.

For enhanced passenger comfort on long trips the Hummer EV SUV’s rear seats recline. The Bolt EUV’s rear seats don’t recline.

Cargo Capacity

The Hummer EV SUV has a much larger cargo volume with its rear seat up than the Bolt EUV with its rear seat up (35.9 vs. 16.3 cubic feet). The Hummer EV SUV has a much larger cargo volume with its rear seat folded than the Bolt EUV with its rear seat folded (81.8 vs. 56.9 cubic feet).

Pressing a switch automatically lowers the Hummer EV SUV’s rear seats, to make changing between passengers and cargo easier. The Bolt EUV doesn’t offer automatic folding seats.

A standard locking glovebox keeps your small valuables safer in the Hummer EV SUV. The Bolt EUV doesn’t offer locking storage for small valuables.

The Hummer EV SUV’s rear cargo window opens separately from the rest of the right swing out door to allow quicker loading of small packages. The Bolt EUV’s rear cargo window doesn’t open.

To make loading and unloading groceries and cargo easier, especially for short adults, the Hummer EV SUV has a standard power cargo door, which opens and closes automatically by pressing a button. The Bolt EUV doesn’t offer a power liftgate.

Towing

The Hummer EV SUV has a 6000 lbs. towing capacity. The Bolt EUV has no towing capacity.

Standard Trailer Sway Control on the Hummer EV SUV uses the StabiliTrak® sensors to detect trailer sway, then uses individual brakes to counteract any swaying and help keep the tow vehicle and trailer steady. The Bolt EUV doesn’t offer electronic trailer sway control.

Servicing Ease

The Hummer EV SUV uses gas struts to support the hood for easier service access. The Bolt EUV uses a prop rod to support its heavy hood. It takes two hands to open the hood and set the prop rod, the prop rod gets in the way during maintenance and service, and the prop rod could be knocked out, causing the heavy hood to fall on the person maintaining or servicing the car.

Ergonomics

When two different drivers share the Hummer EV SUV, the memory system makes it convenient for both. Each setting activates different, customized memories for the driver’s seat position, steering wheel position and outside mirror angle. The Bolt EUV doesn’t offer a memory system.

The Hummer EV SUV’s standard easy entry system glides the driver’s seat back, making it easier for the driver to get in and out. The Bolt EUV doesn’t offer an easy entry system.

The Hummer EV SUV’s rain-sensitive wipers adjust their speed and turn on and off automatically based on the amount of rainfall on the windshield. This allows the driver to concentrate on driving without constantly adjusting the wipers. The Bolt EUV’s standard manually variable intermittent wipers have to be constantly adjusted.

When the Hummer EV SUV is put in reverse, both rearview mirrors tilt from their original position. This gives the driver a better view of the curb during parallel parking maneuvers. Shifting out of reverse puts the mirrors into their original positions. The Bolt EUV’s mirrors don’t automatically adjust for backing.

The Hummer EV SUV’s standard rear and side view mirrors have an automatic dimming feature. These mirrors can be set to automatically darken quickly when headlights shine on them, keeping following vehicles from blinding or distracting the driver. The Bolt EUV offers an automatic rear view mirror, but its side mirrors don’t dim.

The Hummer EV SUV has a standard heated steering wheel to take the chill out of steering on extremely cold winter days before the vehicle heater warms up. A heated steering wheel costs extra on the Bolt EUV.

The Hummer EV SUV’s standard dual zone air conditioning allows the driver and front passenger to choose two completely different temperatures so people with different temperature preferences won’t have to compromise. This makes both the driver and front passenger as comfortable as possible. The Bolt EUV doesn’t offer dual zone air conditioning.

Both the Hummer EV SUV and the Bolt EUV offer rear vents. For greater rear passenger comfort, the Hummer EV SUV has standard rear air conditioning vents to keep rear occupants cool in summer or warm in winter. The Bolt EUV doesn’t offer rear air conditioning vents, only heat vents.

The Hummer EV SUV has a 115-volt a/c outlet on the center console, allowing you to recharge a laptop or run small household appliances without special adapters that can break or get misplaced. The Bolt EUV doesn’t offer a house-current electrical outlet.

The Hummer EV SUV’s Enhanced Automatic Parking Assist can parallel park or back into a parking spot by itself, starting, stopping and changing direction automatically. The Bolt EUV doesn’t offer an automated parking system.
