The Australian launch of the Hummer H3 has been delayed by three months as ADR compliance throws a spanner in the production works. Mudflaps, wiring looms and towbars are where the ADR action is and the delays will see the 300+ Aussies who have already put a deposit on their H3 waiting a little longer than expected.
The official launch of the Hummer H3 is now not expected before October this year. The H3 is the baby in the Hummer range and is built in South Africa. It features a 3.7-litre five-cylinder petrol engine and we’re thinking that will make the 2200kg 4WD a bit of a slug. Hummer Australia are pushing for diesel and V8 power and we’d be waiting for it as well before handing over a deposit.
GM Premium brands, the business behind the importation of the Hummer are also looking at bringing the Cadillac brand to Australia but admit that this is still 18mths to 2 years away as they wait for next generation models to come on stream.
