396ci OHV Turbo Diesel V8 Engine 205bhp at 3,400rpm 440lbs ft at 1,800rpm 4-Speed Automatic – 4-Wheel Drive 4-Wheel Independent Suspension 4-Wheel Disc Brakes *Just one owner and less than 18,500 miles from new *Kept in the mild California climate since new *Massive 6.5-Liter Turbo Diesel powered Military-derived utility vehicle *Accompanied by CARFAX report THE HUMMER H1 Not just another 4x4, the Hummer (or 'Hum-Vee') is an all-terrain vehicle in a class of its own, as capable off the road as it is imposing on it. The Hummer owes its existence to the US Army's requirement for a 'go-anywhere' workhorse and was first seen in prototype form in 1980. Builders AM General were given the go ahead for production in 1985, and since then, more than 150,000 have been delivered to US and other armed forces. In 1991 AM General made the inspired decision to offer this remarkable vehicle for public sale. Apart from additional creature comforts, the civilian Hummer is virtually indistinguishable from its military counterpart. The Hummer's astonishing off-road capability is enough to make owners of lesser 4WDs green with envy: 22" (56cm) vertical rock ledges, 60-degree upward gradients, 30" (76cm) of water, 3' (91cm) snowdrifts and 40-degree side slopes all being taken effortlessly in its giant stride. It is also capable of towing a load weighing in excess of 7,500lbs (3,400kg). The power unit is a 6.5-liter V8 turbo diesel producing 205bhp at 3,400rpm and delivering a mighty 440lb/ft of torque at just 1,800 revs. The Torque Trac 4 (TT4) transmission system incorporates a four-speed automatic gearbox, Zexel Torsen III torque biasing differential and reduction-geared hubs. This powertrain is mounted in a steel box-section chassis featuring all-independent suspension, power-assisted steering and power-assisted ABS-equipped disc brakes all round, while the coachwork is manufactured from aircraft-grade aluminum alloy. THE MOTORCAR OFFERED This potent Black Hummer H1 HMCS with five-door wagon coachwork (the roomiest alternative) was completed at the South Bend, Indiana based AM General Corp plant in April of 2000. The first owner took delivery in Los Altos, California in July that same year, and the massive Hummer is believed to have remained in the Bay Area until 2019. Today it presents in largely original condition, with just over 18,500 miles recorded on the odometer. An automotive icon in its own right, the Hummer H1 is like nothing else on the road, and here is an opportunity to acquire a low-mileage, well-kept example.
