Total Car Score reVolver

This week’s episode looks at the revival of the Hummer brand as a premium, high-tech, pure electric vehicle. With over 1,000 horsepower and a zero-to-60 time in 3 seconds, the new Hummer will be one of the most capable trucks available when it arrives in 2022. The hosts discuss another high-performance truck that’s hitting showrooms much sooner — the 700-horsepower 2021 Ram 1500 TRX. Finally, Javier, Lauren and Karl comment on how Hyundai managed to grow its brand value in 2020 when nearly every automotive brand lost value as a result of reduced sales during the global pandemic.
