If you're in the market for an EV truck, the F150 Lightning makes perfect sense. But then again, for just $20,000 more you could go BIG... with the Hummer EV. Watch the full video here ➡️ hummerev f150lightning motortrend
. Usually, when we do a truck comparison test, we do work. Not today. We're going to drive these two electric trucks as if we're 17-year-olds on a weeklong joy ride where there's no tomorrow.A word about prices. Since we named the Lightning our TOTY, its price went up. In fact, if you, you'll note that value tipped the scales in favor of the Ford, as it undercut the Rivian's price by $7,000—just before the test the R1T's price jumped by $12,000.
Both trucks are fully electric, of course. The Lightning has front and rear motors that combine to produce 580 horsepower and 775 lb-ft of torque. Not bad at all. The Hummer is as much an exercise in ridiculousness as anything else, and its numbers hew closely to the first part of this sentence. Its three motors—one up front, two in the rear—combine to spit out 1,000 hp and 1,200 lb-ft of torque. Again, ridiculous.The Lightning's battery is huge, with a capacity of 131 kWh.
Predictably, both trucks are quick. The Lightning Lariat can hit 60 mph in 3.9 seconds, and it takes 12.6 seconds to scoot down the quarter mile. The next-level Hummer is exactly that: 3.0 seconds to 60 mph and 11.7 seconds in the quarter, where it begins to run out of steam. Braking in either is decent but not great. From 60 mph the Lightning needs 132 feet and the Hummer requires 137 feet.
Unlike the Ford, with the Hummer, well, GMC's design team decided that intimidating and frightening at least half the buying public was the way to go; it's the primary raison d'être for a brand like Hummer, no? Polarization is the point. We love how purposefully cartoonish it looks, but we also understand the haters' point of view. As far as looking like a machine that can conquer any type of terrain, GMC nailed the brief.
