GMC's New Hummer X Mid-Size EV Truck Concept Has Stackable Screens

General Motors built two mid-size GMC Hummer X EV concepts, a SUV and a pickup, as part of a new advanced design studio in Pasadena, California. The vehicles are designed as capable rock crawlers with removable fender flares, stackable screens, and mechanical fasteners instead of adhesives. The concepts are not intended for production and will not compete with upcoming EVs. They function as testbeds for new technologies, new aesthetics, and more sustainable ways to build cars. The design emphasizes configurability and uses manufacturing techniques and materials that reduce waste, including on-demand metal fabrication referenced as Flex Fab.

"The EVs were designed as capable rock crawlers with removable fender flares, stackable screens, and mechanical fasteners instead of adhesives. Everybody knows the big and over-the-top GMC Hummer EV. Well, now there's a smaller, mid-size duo bearing the Hummer badge, but don't get your hopes up, as the rugged SUV and pickup you see in these photos won't compete with the Rivian R2 anytime soon."

"The GMC Hummer X SUV and pickup are two brand-new concept vehicles built by General Motors to mark the official opening of its new advanced design studio in Pasadena, California. Billed as a new home for GM's West Coast design vision, the Pasadena location significantly expands the automaker's Los Angeles-area footprint with a fully integrated facility that was purpose-built for the next generation of concept and mobility work."

""Southern California isn't just a place where we work, it's a place of unfiltered inspiration, said Bryan Nesbitt, VP of Global Design, GM. Film, art, architecture, aerospace, technology, and the remarkably diverse topography create an unparalleled canvas of experiences that drives an incredibly unique vehicle culture. These sources of inspiration influence how our designers see the world to envision what mobility could offer 10 or 20 years into the future, exploring new designs, technology, and experiences for GM customers.""
