Hummer H3E

Raser Technologies announced today they will premiere a 100mpg Electric Hummer H3E at the Plug-In 2009 Conference in Long Beach, California. The Hummer H3E is a plug-in electric vehicle that features an onboard range extender. For the first 40 miles, the power of the Hummer H3E comes from an electric motor, after which a small gasoline engine is used to re-charge the batteries. According to the company, the Hummer H3E is able to run for 400 miles before refuelling.

After building the Hummer H3E, the company plans to introduce its powertrain to as many SUVs as possible.

California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger said about the Hummer H3E : "I got a sense that I was sitting in a car that represents the future of transportation in America."
