Hummer H1 Review

Hummer H1 is a civilian vehicle based on the vehicle high-mobility multipurpose wheeled (HMMWV), known as the Humvee, AM General was created.

History

Originally published in the civilian market in 1992, the Hummer H1 owes its birth to the popularity of images of Operation Desert Storm and the enthusiastic campaign, the actor Arnold Schwarzenegger, who personally owns several variants of Hummer vehicles. GM announced that 2006 would be the last production year of the model Hummer H1 winding down in June 2006 because of new emission laws for diesel vehicles that come into force in 2007. Version of the Hummer H1 has never met the new requirements. AM General currently has orders for more than 50,000 new HMMWVs produced between 2006-2009 for the U.S. Army. AM General also will continue to produce 1 in the first half, just not the Alpha. These vehicles are sold in Fleet Sales. The H1 next most likely bear a refined version of the 6.5L turbo diesel engine before, but that has not been established.
