Autogroup International has announced the release of the right-hand drive 2024 Hummer EV SUV and Pickup, which are now shipping worldwide to 40+ right-hand drive countries, including South Africa
The right-hand drive 2024 Hummer EV range has undergone an extensive mirror image conversion, including complex electrical and mechanical engineering by Autogroup International to ensure the vehicle is safely converted, homologated and ADR compliant under our ISO 9001:2015 quality assurance programme; resulting in a safe, legal-to-import and right-hand drive Hummer EV.
The 2024 Hummer EV SUV is instantly recognisable and iconic with its design influenced by the classic H2 and H3 Hummers, yet these EV-powered SUVs and Pickups deliver 619 kW and 1 550 Nm of torque, 0 – 100 km/h in 3.5 seconds and thanks to the Ultium battery technology provide a range of around 500 kilometres.
Some of the features of the Hummer, are:
• Features Crabwalk mode and 4x wheel steering.
• Removable ‘Infinity Roof’ panels.
• Air Ride Suspension with Extract mode – lifts the vehicle 152 mm.
• 22-inch premium finished wheels.
• 800V DC Public Fast Charging.

Autogroup International with its 30+ years in the left-hand to right-hand drive vehicle conversion business and a team of 185 people with experience garnered from safely converting over 4 500+ American SUVs, Muscle Cars and Pickup trucks has invested extensively to convert the Hummer EV to right-hand drive. The mirror image conversion is 100% perfect down to the smallest detail like relocating the volume control button and gear shift button to the right-hand side of the vehicle.
Autogroup International says it requires approximately four weeks to convert a Hummer EV to right-hand drive and importantly, this is with full homologation and compliance allowing for the legal import of the vehicle into all right-hand drive countries and is supported by a 3-year ‘full vehicle’ warranty, backed by Autogroup International.
“The launch of the 2024 right-hand drive Hummer EV SUV and Pickup builds on our heritage of having converted hundreds of the older H2 and H3 Hummers in the early 2000s, and now the Hummer EV is available to our customers in right-hand drive countries worldwide.
“It is a testament to my team whose decades of experience, alongside our electrical, mechanical and reverse engineering crew plus our extraordinary production team that Autogroup International has enabled us to deliver a safe, legally compliant and perfect right-hand drive Hummer EV,” says Rob Hill (CEO Autogroup International).
