The new GMC Hummer EV is not subtle. The $110,000 (P6.16 million) Edition 1 model we borrowed for an epic road trip in America had three motors—two at the back, one at the front—producing 1,000hp and 1,625Nm of torque. It could do 0-100kph in 3sec, which is basically as quick as a Ferrari 296 GTB. And that’s not the scary bit.

It has a claimed range of 530km, which is pretty good, but only because it has a huge 205kWh battery—that’s the same as six Honda e’s, and it weighs...about 4,100kg, equivalent to nine Caterham 170Rs.
