DRIVING EXPERIENCE

Designed to thrill
Once you feel the thrill of electric, there's no going back. The Ultium generation of EVs by General Motors are as responsive as they are powerful. Ultium enables a near 50/50 weight distribution of the vehicle and a lower center of gravity, which together result in a vehicle that's sporty, responsive and allows for spirited driving.
Feel the rush
Ultium doesn't just go the distance, it can get there fast. Imagine yourself in a 2022 GMC HUMMER EV Pickup capable of going from a GM estimated 0 to 60 in three seconds2. Now that’s electric.
Feel the serenity
An EV engine is quiet. Which makes the EV driving experience both quiet on the outside and the inside. You can listen to your favorite podcast and not miss a single word.
RANGE
Engineered to go the distance
From daily commutes to weekend road trips, the Ultium Platform offers you the range1 to reach your destination and beyond.
CHARGING
When it comes to charging, you’re in charge
Recharges when you do
While some days you might spend hours on the road, commuting to work or running errands, often the vehicles we drive are simply parked. And that's a lot of free time to recharge. Whether you use at-home or public charging stations, simply plug in and let it power up while you power down.
Take charge of your charge
Convenient charging shouldn't be a luxury; it should be for everybody. Ultium Charge 360, our holistic approach to charging, will integrate charging networks, available GM mobile apps5 and other products and services to simplify and improve your charging experience.
CAPABILITY
One battery fits all
Will an EV fit your lifestyle? We’re making sure it will. From luxury and performance cars to daily commuters, pickups and SUVs, the modular Ultium Platform can power EVs of every type and at every price point.
Advantage: battery power
Electric batteries can be repurposed toward the end of their life cycle, while gasoline is a finite resource. EVs also use regenerative braking6, which results in increased brake pad life and fewer brake pad and rotor replacements during the lifecycle of the vehicle.
