Hummer H3 Halts Handicraft

General Motors will stop the H3 and H3T lines at its Shrevenport assembly plant until after it completes a sale of the off road brand to China’s Sichuan Tengzhong Heavy Industrial Machinery Co. Ltd. GM says that the H3 and H3T accounted for less than 25 percent of the Shreveport plant’s overall production. It is unclear how many workers will be affected by the idle time. More than 2,100 Hummer H3s remain in dealer inventory as of January 1, about a seven month supply given the sluggish current sales rate of the H3 and H3T. Tengzhong’s offer was only for the current designs and marketing rights, not assembly plants, although the company indicated that it would contract with GM to build Hummers for at least the foreseeable future.

What could be the reason for these jaw-dropping sales results? The greenies or the thirsty H3 engine?

Unveiled for the first time at the Detroit Motor Show, HX Concept is smaller than its predecessors, at the same time borrowing many of the design elements that make Hummer look so aggressive. One thing that stands out at the HX Concept is the huge wheelarches that allow a clear view of the car’s suspension system; although some may say they’re really enormous, I for one like this touch very much. The interior of the car has a metallic theme, with metal insertions everywhere in the front panel, even in the headrests of all the neoprene seats. (more…)
