Starting next month or in November, General Motors (GM) will temporarily halt GMC's manufacture of the Hummer electric vehicle (EV). The enormous carmaker acknowledged the suspension of production and explained it. According to the most recent news report by Teslarati, General Motors revealed that sometime in late November, production of their all-electric Hummer truck had to be halted. According to the EV news website, the significant carmaker ended reservations for its electric Hummer in September. The action is being taken when GM struggles to meet the rising demand for its electrified pickup truck. Hummer EV

The automaker recently stated in a press release that sales of the Bolt EV and Bolt EUV are also increasing. The Bolt's demand already outpaces GM's capability for manufacture. Before the carmaker ceased taking new orders, the number of reservations for the Hummer had already surpassed the 90,000 mark. According to a Detroit News article, the decision to halt production aims to meet the rising demand for all-electric vehicles.

According to the automaker, it is "moving forward with body shop renovations at Factory ZERO for the Silverado EV and taking other efforts to ready to grow EV production in 2023." Additionally, GM claims that it should significantly increase its output of EV options once the modifications are complete. Specifically, the manufacturer wants to increase EV output to 70,000 annually. It is well below the peak of 44,000 that it reached last year. However, GM claims that to reach these higher production levels, it must halt the manufacture of the much-awaited Hummer EV. How long the production suspension would last is still unknown. But the company estimated that "a few weeks" would pass before it resumed.
