Most people think of the original Hummer as a military vehicle. However, the Hummer civilian truck entered the United States market in 1992 through the AM General Company. But by 1999, General Motor Corporation had gained exclusive rights to Hummer, evolving it into the Hummer H1. The company later manufactured second and third generations, including the Hummer H2 and Hummer H3 Alpha.

The interior also features a compass, OnStar controls, a PASSLock theft-deterrent security device and a monitoring system that checks the tire pressure. The doors can be opened with keyless entry.
