GM tsis txaus ntseeg txog cov laj thawj rau qhov ncua sijhawm, tab sis qhov tseeb, lub tuam txhab yuav tsum tau ua haujlwm los ntawm ntau qhov kev hloov kho me me rau Australian Design Rules.

Hummer's 3.7-liter inline-tsib-lub tog raj kheej petrol engine khiav nrog tsib-ceev phau ntawv los yog plaub-ceev tsis siv neeg kis tau tus mob thiab mus tas li tag nrho-log tsav.

Kev nkag-theem H3 pib ntawm $ 51,990 (ntxiv $ 2000 rau tsis siv neeg) thiab los ntawm tus qauv nrog kev ruaj ntseg tswj, traction tswj, ABS, dual pem hauv ntej airbags, sab ntaub thaiv npog airbags, cruise tswj, pos huab teeb, halogen headlights, tsib 16 nti alloy log nrog 265 / 75 nti txoj kab uas hla txoj kev roj hmab, ib daim CD nyob rau hauv khiav ceev thiab daim ntaub trim.

Nws kuj tseem ntxiv cov kev tiv thaiv hauv qab ntxiv, lub tshuab hluav taws xob xauv lub nraub qaum sib txawv thiab cov ntaub ntawv hnyav hloov pauv nrog 4.03: 1 txo qhov piv.

Hmoov tsis zoo, tsis muaj lub tsheb los ntawm tus qauv nrog lub teeb pom kev tom qab, qhov tsis pom kev tsis pom kev hauv lub tsheb nrog qhov pom me me raws li H3 khav theeb. Hloov chaw, GM suav nrog $ 455 txheej ntawm cov chaw nres tsheb tom qab (ntxiv rau kev teeb tsa) hauv cov npe khoom siv dav dav.

"Peb nkag siab tias qhov no tseem ceeb npaum li cas rau kev nyab xeeb, tab sis hmoov tsis nws tsis muaj nyob hauv lub Hoobkas," Batish hais. "Peb tab tom tham nrog GM txog qhov no thiab tej zaum yuav muaj kev txav mus los rau xyoo 2008, tab sis tam sim no peb tau ua peb qhov zoo tshaj plaws los ua kom muaj khoom siv hauv zos."

GM hais tias nws muaj 400 xaj rau H3 tab sis tsis tau hais tias pes tsawg lub tsheb nws npaj yuav muag xyoo tom ntej. Lub H3 rau Australia yuav yog los ntawm South Africa, qhov twg RHD tsheb tsim.

Nws zoo li lub cav turbodiesel yuav muaj nyob rau hauv 2009, thiab kev txiav txim siab ntawm 5.3-liter V8 qauv tseem tsis tau ua.

Ua 180kW ntawm 5600rpm thiab 328Nm ntawm lub zog ntawm qhov siab ntawm 4600rpm (txawm hais tias Hummer thov 90% ntawm qhov siab tshaj plaws torque mus txog ntawm 2000rpm), 3.7-litre cav tuav H3 txoj kev loj taug kev zoo heev.

Thaum koj nias lub roj pedal ntawm qhov ceev tshaj 80 km / h, tsis muaj kev ua haujlwm ntau, tab sis ua siab ntev thiab npaj rau kev hla, thiab lub cav thaum kawg yuav teb.

Tus neeg tsav tsheb lub rooj zaum yog qhov xav tsis thoob tias xis nyob tom qab nce siab ntau heev kom tau mus rau lub tsev. Raws li kev nkag mus rau hauv thiab tawm ntawm H3, ib lo lus ceeb toom: yog tias koj yuav sib tw los ntawm cov av nkos, nws yuav yog ib qho zoo rau xaiv lub tsheb nrog cov kauj ruam, vim nws yuav luag tsis tuaj yeem tawm ntawm lub tsheb yam tsis muaj rub lub qhov rooj. huv qhov rais sills.

Sab hauv muaj ib tug ncaj ncees theem ntawm cov ntaub ntawv thiab tag nrho cov huab cua. Nws kuj tseem zoo nyob rau hauv cov nqe lus ntawm ergonomics, tag nrho cov tswj yog nyob ntawm tes.

Qab nws yog qhov ntxim nyiam tsawg. Lub qhov rooj yog me me, nkag thiab tawm kev cuam tshuam los ntawm flared boxy log arches, chaw ntau pob zaum thiab me ntsis claustrophobic me qhov rais.

Raws li txoj kev tsheb, H3 tsis yog tsis muaj txiaj ntsig. Cov qhov rais me me cuam tshuam nrog kev pom sab nraud, tab sis cov iav sab loj, thaum kho kom zoo, them nyiaj rau qhov no.

Lub kauj tsheb tsis hnyav npaum li koj xav tau muab qhov loj ntawm lub log tsheb, tab sis nws tsis meej. Zuag qhia tag nrho maneuverability yog zoo heev ua tsaug rau H3 qhov xav tsis thoob zoo li 11.3m tig vojvoog.

H3 tej zaum yuav muaj qee qhov kev xav hauv nroog, tab sis nws muaj peev xwm tawm ntawm txoj kev loj.

Tag nrho cov qauv muaj kev ruaj ntseg txhua lub log tsav nrog ob qhov chaw siab; qhib thiab kaw qhov chaw sib txawv; thiab qhov qis qis yog kaw. Txawm tias tsis muaj qhov kev xaiv ntxiv-qis dua thiab cov qauv taug txuj kev nyuaj lub nraub qaum sib txawv ntawm lub xauv, nws nyuaj rau xav txog seb hom struts yuav nres qhov no.

Lub tso tawm khiav, uas yuav tso ob peb lub npe nrov off-roads nyob rau hauv pem hauv ntej ntawm rab ntaj, tsis yooj yim khob H3 tawm ntawm trot. Tsis muaj zog nce toj ntawm cov pob zeb, cov kev tawg hnyav hnyav thiab cov av nkos swamps yog ib qho me me rau Hammer.

Koj tuaj yeem paub tseeb tias koj yuav tsis ua txhaum H3 nrog lwm yam uas tsis yog kev npau taws.

Lub cev ntawm Hummer yog welded loj (tshem tawm squeaky qhov chaw uas screwed-on thiab bolted panels rub) mounted ntawm lub tsev kawm ntawv qub rugged ntaiv ncej chassis. Nws tag nrho cia siab rau ib qho yooj yim ywj siab torsion bar pem hauv ntej ncua kev kawm ntawv thiab nplooj hlav caij nplooj ntoos hlav rear ncua kev kawm ntawv.
