Full IS is a shocker, just like the H1, that surprised the hell out of me.

We'll see more pictures soon, I'd like to see it without the body panels.

J.Mehoff · 01-08-2008, 05:25 PM

Wow

BigKofJustice · 01-08-2008, 05:36 PM

The article states full IS, but the pictures show a 4 bar/solid rear setup, it's not clear. I guess we'll see more pictures over the next few days.

bstott275 · 01-08-2008, 07:49 PM

any one else see an fj40 in that?

makya · 01-08-2008, 08:11 PM

maybe i missed it, but I didn't see where it said it was an h4.

everything I read in the link said it was a concept car.

forsakenfuture · 01-08-2008, 08:45 PM

Dang...it really doesnt do much for me..just my 2 cents.

This will wind up as the H4 within 2 years, just the same as the H3T became the H3 minus the nike design interior and tires. AM General and GM isn't going to design another production model hummer from scratch to sell within 2 years without starting a marketing push for it first [the hx].

It looks like a CV boot in there, no?

if it is an entry level Hummer, I am definitely liking the potential.

Jaybirdls1 · 01-22-2008, 03:35 AM

After looking at some pictures online, I made sure to get a good look at this thing at the Detroit auto show over the weekend. It looks much better in person IMO

The links in the rear you see from the side are trailing arms, it is full-IS. Also has front and rear lockers! It sure looks like 37s will fit too, I just wonder if the drivetrain would be up to the task.

More pictures here:

Thanks for the report.

I can't wait to see what the production model looks like!

If they are showing it with 35's then it will likely handle 37's.

The H3 came with 33's and we all run 35's with no mods. But it also has a 4:1 and 4:56's.

jimbo85yoat · 01-22-2008, 08:46 AM

at least it has a place for an iPhone

And your point is?

1) It's a concept.

2) How many people nowadays are plugging their iPods into their car stereos?

SCHooch · 01-22-2008, 07:28 PM

H2o Hummer HX H4 would be sweet!

fordman1978 · 01-22-2008, 11:42 PM

i hope they keep the fox coilovers. id love to snag a set for cheap after somebody wrecks one.

And according to this article, you will be able to record your offroad adventures directly to your iPod!!!

Cool technology!

zj_wheeler · 01-24-2008, 03:53 PM

Wow, looks sweet.

r0nin89 · 01-24-2008, 07:08 PM

Needs solid axles...

johnny010 · 02-18-2008, 08:54 PM

I would pre-order. This fits me better than any vehicle I have seen in a long time. Wouldn't guzzle gas like some of the larger SUVs, would be capable, fun to take the glass off, looks great, sporty, not the run of the mill Jeep...

Plus, it doesn't give the 'poser' feeling of the H3. Has it's own identity.
NICE.

HoupPhotography.com · 02-24-2008, 09:24 AM

WHY? So soccer mom's can have 4 options to drive now? I agree, it does look like an FJ, making up your own name (H4) was pretty lame, it's nothing more than a CONCEPT!

Just like the H1 needed solid axles right?

oldskoolss · 02-28-2008, 07:23 PM

It's just as gay as the H2 and H3. The H1 is the only real hummer. Posermobiles for the other generations of H2 to H10. Look to the future shows the H6 with a 5hp Briggs and Straton motor.
