DETROIT - HUMMER today announced the pricing for its new 2005 H2
SUT scheduled to hit dealerships in June. Base level models, which
include a sunroof and rear spare tire carrier standard, start at
$52,845 MSRP (including destination charge), which is approximately
$1,500 less than the 2005 H2 SUV on a comparably equipped basis. Quickly following the success of
the original H2, the SUT marks the continuation of a growth strategy
that includes the introduction of the H3 next year.
The base SUT
model also includes such standard equipment as a Vortec 6000 6.0L V-8
engine with 325 horsepower, heavy-duty Hydra-Matic 4L65-E four-speed
automatic overdrive transmission with full-time four-wheel drive,
17-inch wheels, independent front suspension, five-link rear
suspension, locking rear differential, leather-trimmed front and rear
heated seats, premium Bose sound system and much more.
In addition, the
Adventure Series SUT model starting at $55,625 includes all the
standard features of the base model, plus a brush guard, tubular tail
lamp protection, roof rack crossbars, rubber floor
mats, AM/FM six-disc CD changer, HUMMER first aid/tool kit, and
air suspension system with onboard air compressor.
The SUT Luxury
Series starting at $56,585 raises the bar even further. With ebony
leather seats, up-level interior trim, exterior chrome appearance
package, chrome wheels, chrome tubular assist steps, XM
Satellite Radio and carpeted floor mats, the Luxury Series adds
refined comforts to the SUT's rugged demeanor.
"The SUT is
fun, functional and almost endlessly reconfigurable," said Mike
DiGiovanni, HUMMER general manager. "But most importantly, it's a
true HUMMER with unbelievable, class-leading, off-road
capability."
