Humming

That's the noise an electric motor makes.

So is an electric Beetle a Humbug?

Remember when Arnie Schwarzenegger got his Humvie H1 electrified?

Not the most attractive of vehicles but the thought of an environmentally friendly Hummer was novel.

Well GMC have finally revealed lots of information about, and pictures of, their new electric Hummer:

Car+Driver have got loads of stories on it - here is just one.

And I have to say I really like it.  I don't normally like that class of vehicle - I guess I was put off by the old Nissan Navara ads which basically said that people who nobody respected should buy them.

Apparently the first 2022 models will all be white with a removable black roof, bronze-coloured wheels and a two-tone black and grey interior with bronze accents and Edition 1 badges.

Other variations including cheaper models will come later but let's be honest, it's these Edition 1 ones that Wayne Carini's Great-Grandkids will be getting excited about in Season 180 of Chasing Classic Cars.

So if an electric Beetle is a Humbug, then an electric Hummer must be...

...a Hummer.
