The Electric Pickup Is Similar to a Trailer and Has the Ability to Be Charged Through Solar Light

GMC has partnered with EarthCruiser, a company specializing in adventure vehicles, to transform the electric Hummer EV into a true home on wheels. This partnership not only added an extension on top of the electric pickup, similar to a trailer, but also introduced a solar charging system, according to the website Olhar Digital.

EarthCruiser is known for designing vehicles aimed at off-road adventures and camping, prioritizing both performance and comfort. The collaboration between GMC and EarthCruiser aims to transform the Hummer EV pickup into a complete adventure experience.

The Transformation of the Hummer EV Electric Pickup

The recent unveiling of the Hummer EV EarthCruiser, resulting from this partnership, revealed a carbon fiber extension on top of the electric pickup. This extension, perfectly integrated into the chassis of the pickup, provides space for owners to sleep comfortably and also offers the ability to open the top to admire the sky or enjoy an even greater sense of freedom.

Sustainable Energy and Range in the Electric Pickup

The pursuit of sustainability is evident in the Hummer EV EarthCruiser. Equipped with a 6 kWh lithium battery and 12V, the vehicle is also powered by solar energy, generating an additional 605W. This translates to a total range of seven days without the need for recharging, as reported by the website Electrek.

The partnership between GMC and EarthCruiser offers more than camping conveniences. The new Hummer EV features onboard solar power capabilities, allowing owners to recharge while resting and be ready to continue their journey.
The GMC Hummer EV EarthCruiser is set to be officially launched during the Overland Expo Mountain West event, taking place from August 25 to 27. Travel and camping enthusiasts can reserve a unit on the EarthCruiser website with a deposit of US$ 100. While the final price has yet to be announced, the Hummer EV EarthCruiser promises to be an exciting option for those seeking sustainable and comfortable four-wheeled adventures.

Sustainable Energy and Range in the Electric Pickup

With billions in loans, China is rebuilding Nigeria’s railway network from scratch, abandoning the British colonial tracks that have turned to scrap and creating a corridor of over 1,300 km to take the load off the roads of Africa’s largest economy.

Forget petroleum-based asphalt: a Scottish company transforms 684,000 plastic bottles into one kilometer of road that is 60% more resistant and up to 10 times more durable, and the technology has already started replacing traditional asphalt in more than 30 countries.

China is building an artificial island in the middle of the sea, covering 20 km², to construct the largest offshore airport in the world, the Dalian Jinzhouwan. This $4.3 billion project is anchored on more than 3,000 pillars embedded in the rock beneath the ocean and is scheduled to open in 2035.

Austrian engineers have developed an inflatable concrete technology that transforms flat slabs into domes using only air pressure, eliminating scaffolding and temporary forms, and potentially changing the way bridges, tunnels, and curved roofs are constructed worldwide.

A robot named Walter does the work of five bricklayers per hour and can save the construction industry, where the average age of professionals is 46 years and almost no one wants to learn the trade anymore, in the United Kingdom.

Spain installs two giant pipelines 2.2 km off the coast to draw water from the Mediterranean and supply a megafacility capable of producing 200 million liters of drinking water per day.

Without wheels, iron, or machines, teams of up to 32 men would have dragged 2.3-ton blocks over wet sand up a ramp embedded in the pyramid itself, raising the structure in 20 to 27 years, according to a new computer model that reignites a millennia-old debate.

The United States purchased for $125 million a ship that Shell used for drilling oil in the Arctic, spent another $25 million refurbishing it, and renamed it Storis because the largest economy on the planet can no longer build an icebreaker on its own.

Carnivorous dinosaur in China left footprints at just 1 km/h and surprised researchers in the field with more than 5,000 tracks preserved for over 100 million years.

The largest car carrier ship in the world will unload 7,200 BYD cars at the SC Port in June, but before that, an Italian ship will arrive this Tuesday with another 4,500 vehicles, totaling 11,700 cars, 150 workers, and a 24-hour non-stop operation at the Port of Itajaí.

African country launched a $145 million project to rehabilitate 35 dams and drill deep wells seeking water stored for millennia beneath the desert, a plan that Captain Ibrahim Traoré’s government presents as a path to the country’s water sovereignty.

A 400-meter colossus powered by natural gas has just set sail from Shanghai to Europe, carrying over 24,000 containers. It is the world’s largest dual-fuel container ship and can cross the planet without refueling even once.

Forget the basic popular car: used sedans like Passat CC, Kia Cerato, Nissan Altima, Mitsubishi Lancer, and Volvo S60 show that it’s still possible to buy more performance, comfort, and technology for less than many new compacts.

Used Honda Civic: 3 versions of the Japanese sedan with naturally aspirated engines of up to 155 hp, fuel consumption of up to 13.8 km/l, robust automatic transmission, and a reputation for reliable mechanics still dominate the used car market in Brazil.

Toyota Hilux becomes a ‘cargo truck’: automaker declares a new era for the pickup with greater capacity, reinforced chassis, 2.8 turbodiesel engine, raised suspension, 1,525 kg load capacity, and targets Ford Ranger Super Duty, which tows an impressive 4,500 kg.
