A Suzuki Jimny would probably be more effective for 99% of Hummer owners that actually use it off-road, and in turn that is probably a very small minority of the total.


There's probably some amount of a valid point there, but making it about a Hummer, specifically, undermines it, since they suck at most of the things one might think they'd be good at.

Incidentally, I saw tons of Hummers on the road around here in the '00s. Now... I thought they'd stopped making them. All those "I want a huge car because... I want a huge car" buyers must be getting expensive trucks or other kinds of big SUVs these days.


The reason Hummers suck for those off-road and work uses is because so few people actually use them for that


Yesterday's "off-road" battle on Carwow featured a Jimny and a (petrol) Hummer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Srb8LYt82z0 . Spoiler: the Jimny won.
