Hummer modified in China at the 2008 Auto China

A Hummer modified in China at the 2008 Auto China show in Beijing

Some Americans may not be comfortable with the idea, but China is a force to be reckoned with. And now it might even save about 3,000 American jobs.

General Motors has a tentative agreement with Sichuan Tengzhong Heavy Industrial Machinery Co. of China, which plans to purchase Hummer. If the deal goes through, the new owner of Hummer would contract GM to continue building the Hummer H3 and H3T at their Shreveport, La., plant at least through 2010.

That move, along with saving dealership jobs, would save thousands of manufacturing jobs. It’s hard to find fault in a sale that benefits newly bankrupt GM and saves American jobs.

Even so, it’s hard to look past the irony of an iconic American military-vehicle-turned-civilian-SUV being owned by a Chinese company. We might as well sell the New York Yankees and our patent on apple pie to the Chinese government, too.

What I’m having trouble understanding is how Hummer’s new owner intends to make money. Hummer’s sales dropped nearly 70% in the first four months of this year, and I’m not sure Chinese ownership is a change that will lend itself to sales improvements in this country.

Maybe that’s the point, though. GM has had success with Buick in China, and maybe Sichuan Tengzhong plans to do the same with Hummer. If that’s the case, it’s probably only a matter of time before Hummers will be shipped with the words “Made in China” engraved into the sheet metal.

I guess I should just quit complaining. An Indian company owns Jaguar, and now a Chinese company will likely own Hummer. Maybe it’s time for a U.S. company to buy Kia and complete the circle in this bizzaro new world.

Japan's 213 Motoring Builds the Ultimate Six Hummer H2

For those still living in 2005, 213 Motoring (Japanese tuner Calwing's US division) has got just what you need to get to the prom in style: a supremely decked-out 6-wheeled H2.

The metropolitan tank gets a huge dose of Extenze to fit that extra axle (and super-size the interior), a body kit, a new exhaust system and a dozen extra lights on its nose.

Inside is just what people have come to expect from limousines: leather, plush carpeting, big TV screens, and liquor. Just what you need to get the party started.

Hummer H2 "Bomber"

Armed for any conditions: Hummer with Mattracks rubber tracks

In its regular trim, the Hummer H2 not only looks fantastic, but also brings with it a real degree of off-road capabilities. But this can go much further, as GeigerCars.de have proved with the "H2 Bomber" on rubber tracks.

In contrast to the regular wheels with their 8.5" x 20" rims encompassing 305/60 tyres, the specialists from Munich have equipped their project SUV with a Mattracks 88M1-A1 rubber tracks at each wheel. Those massive structures, 40cm wide and 150cm long, guarantee unrivalled traction on virtually any type of terrain, whether the vehicle is needed for agriculture, emergency services or expedition. Even extreme gradients are handled without a sweat, not least thanks to the powerful 8 cylinders under the bonnet which gives you 398 bhp and 574 Nm of torque.

How well the GeigerCars.de Hummer acquits itself on the rubber tracks can be left to Autobild editor Wolfgang Blaube to experience: He explored to legendary Nordschleife of the Nürburgring in the depths of winter with the circuit covered in snow and was completely captured by the "new dimension of fun" after just a few kilometres.

Also in the interior of the GeigerCars.de "Bomber", finished in a matte silver, with extra headlights on the roof and the lettering printed in an army style, the fun factor is not missed out: The luxury design fulfils every wish and a sunroof is every bit a part of the Hummer project as the navigation system with a DVD drive from Kenwood, the roof monitor with headphones or the rear-view camera including a monitor in the rear-view mirror. If requested, the Geigercars team can of course equip each Hummer model with an economical LPG autogas system and other extras.

If you're on the lookout for an off-road master, the H2 is definitely the right choice. With a Hummer equipped with rubber tracks, no terrain remains inaccessible.

Hummer H2 by CFC

Hummer’s days as America’s monster machine may be numbered, but it doesn’t mean that people will stop tinkering with it. After all, it is one of those rare vehicles that seems to have grown quite a cult following in the US.


The CFC Hummer H2 also comes with LSD wing doors and a FOX sports exhaust system. At the interior, the CFC Hummer H2 is fitted with several 17 Axion displays (on the ceiling, sunscreen, central console between the front seats, trunk and doors)a DVD-player, XETEC amplifiers, XETEC subwoofers and digital television. The CFC Hummer H2 also comes with a 1.360-Watt RMS sound system. Other luxuries provided by the CFC Hummer H2 include a reverse camera, a mini-bar and a leather and Alcantara upholstery.


The 480 hp (353 kW) H2 comes with massive 28-inch light alloy wheels wrapped in Kumho tires of 325/35 R28 dimensions. There are also the interestingly-named LSD wing doors and a FOX performance exhaust system.

Burning Chrome - Hummer H2 by CFC®CarFilmComponents

Take your Hammer and drive it sexy: CFC® company with its head office in Weilheim has trimmed its Hummer with a striking "chrome" lamination. Tarted up with every imaginable outfit, the sport-style H2 steadily takes the lead. Some vehicles are completely laminated afterwards, the others, on the contrary, already have it right inside. The Hummer by CFC® has it both: it's a Hummer to stare at and to speak about.

The trend of decorating a car with film to create a noticeable work of art had already been attempted by the CFC® years ago. In the meantime, this exceptional art of car lamination was outstandingly applied... and this is really great!

The motor hood was covered with CFC® ExteriorStyle Premium "black carbon", and side windows, along with the rear window, were furnished with CutLine ThermoTec® of the "classic-style" colour.

The installed 28-incher TunerShop light-alloy tyre rims, for example, produce the same attractive and fear-arousing effect as the outside appearance. They carry mammoth-sized 325/35 R28 pneumatic tyres by Kumho.
The Wimmer technology of performance improvement by means of software optimization by 480 hp, LSD wing doors, as well as FOX sports exhaust system make every Hummer a dangerous monster of the streets.

The Hummer driver can enjoy the saucy performance to the full in a totally stuffed cabin: Car Entertainment devices create a sort of incantation here. Among other things, there are 17 Axion displays (on the ceiling, sunscreen, central console between the front seats, trunk and doors), a DVD-player, XETEC amplifiers, XETEC subwoofers and digital television to feast your eyes on. For the "musical therapy" a 1.360-Watt RMS music system is available.

Front and backward movement cameras simplify the parking process. Everyone who appreciates convenience can comfortably sit on the leather couch right next to the mini-bar. No other thing compares to the mix of leather and Alcantara which was used as coating material for the most of surface of seats and saloon siding and was covered by the auto tuners Zwickenpflüg.
