General Motors is readying an updated version of the Hummer H2, which is expected to debut at the Chicago auto show this month. A single photograph leaked online today of what appears to be the revised H2’s all-new interior.
While its authenticity cannot be confirmed, the image appears to be the real deal. GM’s development team has put an increased emphasis on interior quality and styling with its latest round of redesigns, including the 2008 Cadillac CTS and Chevrolet Malibu.
It’s not known if the H2 will also receive exterior design changes or powertrain upgrades.

Inteior looks nice, but it still doesn’t make up for the fact that this vehicle is the most in practical thing ever made. Anyone ever see the Simpsons epasode were Homer created his own perfect vehicle? I think thats what the thought process was at GM when they created it from the HUM-V.

i hate hummers, only one I respected was the H1, they canceled that, and we are left with a horrible rendition of the hummer name, where 90% of all hummers are on rims that would bend at the sight of a curb, let alone true off-roading.

This is a lot better than the old interior. It just a shame that it took them this long to fix it. The new square vents looks better than the circular ones, and I’m glad the steering wheel has been replaced.
The Hummer H2 may not make sense from a practical standpoint, but then there are many cars that don’t – Bugatti Veyron, Enzo Ferrari, and almost any other supercar out there – and I dont see people bashing them.

My friends, with your help and with the help of our friends at General Motors, we as Americans, most notably those who have stake in our crude oil stocks are able to thrive and prosper in the moments of dispair across the world. It is your duty as Americans to enjoy the fruits of our labor, to sample one of just 12 different full size, truck based SUV’s from GM. For those more endowed, may we suggest Hummer, for those elite individuals who choose more enriched means of living and thriving off this great planet Earth.
Understand this folks, it is not planet Earth that will pay the bills, do your work, provide for your families, make you satisfied, no. It is a resource, a tool in which we use to survive, not a thing of great importance, not a being of high value. Use it, embrace it and ignore those false consequences. This Earth owes us nothing, it is ripe for the taking so enjoy my friends, drink up for the sake of happiness and gluttony.

MM- people don’t bash the cars you mentioned because they are built in limited handfuls. Wasteful H2’s are on every corner.
While the interior is improved, it won’t help change the image of the H2 as anti-planet. Until they make a clean diesel H2 that returns 25-30mpg, it’s hard to justify the 14mpg pig this gets on a good day.

The H2 has been given the 900 treatment. Same interior look as the Tahoe/Suburban with a few Hummer-like touches to distinguish it (at least a little) from the 900s. I like the look of this interior better than the previous one, especially since GM ditched those hideous bubble-like air vents on the I/P. I still don’t see the point of the analog clock. It’s located right above the audio/Nav system that already has a clock.

Some of you people are absolutely nutty. For one thing we’ve “Oilinvestor” typing off his usual bullcrap…as if this is a new SUV, someone explain to that tard that its an interior update please. And then we have the simpletons who don’t understand the difference between an H2 and a Tahoe, I’ll put it simply for you:Fully boxed mid section frame, modified 2500HD front suspension, modified 1500HD rear suspension. Now someone explain to me where you get that stuff on a run-of-the-mill GMT800 Tahoe? You all forget the fact that Toyota will happily sell you the older-than-dirt GX470 for about $13,000 more, while it provides no real advantage other than a thrid row of seats. And lets all blatantly ignore the fact that the Toyota Sequoia is nearly identical in every dimension. To finish off, can the geniuses claiming the H2 is useless please point me in the direction of a full-sized SUV that does better off road? Thankyou

I have driven this vehicle. It handles pretty well. It does not feel as if it is going to ‘roll on every turn’ as bun_a_gm suggests. If you drive it like it’s a mini then you might have issues.
For those who think it’s ‘worthless’, that is subjective and generalisations you all make such as…’90% of the hummers I see have non offroad rims’
Ok, I work fairly close to the area Hummer dealer, in a town that has its share of hummers, and I can honestly say that I see 1 in ten that might not be suitable for off roading.
Grow up, stop being jealous that someone can afford a more expensive car than you.
Oh, ya, oilinvestor, get a new line. The current one is as scintilating as Algore, and just as chock full of drool.

But i still say if somebody actually likes one then go buy one thats their choice now isnt it, is it mine and your job to pass judgement on them….no its not.
by the way lambo you are like a wolf ready to pounce at any sign of weakness, my comment was for oilinvestor who posts the same exact message time and again and it has nothing to do with cars its just a sorry leftist statement, you all bash gm#1`s ignorance post after post but it is one sided on lln, if you actually like gm everybody tells you off, if you hate gm you are a hero. do you just sit there and wait for me to post because this is # 3 now that you have singled me out. when have i ever had any negativity towards an individual automaker or car itsself(before now)…..never. and its too easy for you to call me a jackass over the internet, i guess youre a hummer burning elf member if youre so offended. and by the way if you do happen to live in so cal look how many supercars are driven daily quite a few for sure. so lets all stop acting high and mighty behind our keyboards, any if i did offend any treehuggers i offer my sincerest apologies.

That’s not the new Hummer! The next H2 will feature real elephant ivory trim, baby seal leather surfaces, and depleted uranium switchgear embellished with blood diamond. It will be assembled by the finest child labor in Bangladesh. Optional will be the 24 carat gold combo gearshifter/vi@gra dispenser.

The Hummer H2 is clearly not for everyone. However, this vehicle its passengers and cargo anywhere that it can get two wheels on the ground. The Tahoe can’t make this claim. Neither can the Yukon, Escalade, or anything from the domestic or Japanese competition.
Whine about a shadow on the steering wheel logo in the picture all you want.

Lambo says it has no soul. Bun_a_GM says it doesn’t have more off-road capabilities than a Tahoe.
Have you guys even taken this thing off road before?
It’s a blast!
60% incline. 40% grade. 20 inches of water. You can go over a curb that’s like 15 inches high. I went over fallen trees. There was a spot on the training course where three of the wheels were on rollers, so you could press a button so that each wheel spun independently on the axle so that the fourth wheel could power the vehicle out of the spot. I went down this mudslide where it felt like a roller coaster because it was so steep…using nothing but the engine brake.
And the whole thing was stock, other than the tires!
This thing was amazing in terms of capabilities! Granted, I’ve never taken any other vehicle off road. But tell me about vehicles with similar specs; heck, tell me you’ve even driven an H2 off-road before you all start blindly bashing it.

The Hummer lineup has never had good build quality, serve people who but the huge ugly ass things right for makeing a dumb decision anyway. As for being an off road machine, it ain’t ****. If your looking for an off road machine go with a Frontier, Ranger or best of all a Wrangler. When it comes to off roading, what wins the battle is traction and wheelbase, two things the (a)Hummer doesn’t have.

Here in Scottsdale Az. where plenty of people load up trucks and actually take them out into the deserts hauling ATBs and such. All the H2s are as shiny as the big chrome dubs they are on. For this I don’t blame them or their owners ’cause the #s don’t swing any different for a Land Rover, X5 , Navigator, or any $ 50K + SUV out there. Lets see if any of these H2s really do dirt work in about 10 years, when folks can take ou t that paid off vehicle and not care if it get scratched up in the process

H2 gets better mileage than most supercars. 10-15 MPG isn’t uncommon for a lifetime average. Not great, but isn’t it the buyers decision, being as this is a free market economy?

Flipper, the only difference w/ the X5 is that it’s not meant for offroad, sure it has 4 Wheel drive but its mainly for rain and just simple traction, not offroading, the X5 should never even be considered for a second to be an offroad vehicle, its an onroad SUV for SUV drivers that actually like to drive. See the H2 an Range Rover are MADE for offroad, so not using them accordingly is kind of dumb

And for the record… Liberal emotional idiots like you Lambo ONLY address Hummer. Show me a thread where you’ve expressed such vile hatred for any other SUV. It’s pathetic! To focus such anger on a frickin vehicle! Such a thread does not exist because Social-ists like you single out the one SUV that embodies luxury, high society, and wealth. The H2 is a blatant display of wealth. If life is so bad here, and Bush is such a moron, and the war is a joke, and too many Americans are causing global warming with their big H2s, then why don’t you take a one way trip to our northern neighbors and bask in psuedo social-ism.
