Hummer H4 to be a Rival for the Jeep Wrangler
Here are some not so surprising news that GM plans to expand its Hummer line in the H4, which they hope will be a rival to the Jeep Wrangler in attracting customers who prefer off-roading with their vehicles.
This from Auto Week:
Plans are under way for the H4, which is expected to be a strong competitor for Jeep’s off-road icon, the Wrangler. H4 plans call for a smaller hard-core off-roader. At present GM has not identified which GM chassis will be the donor or which engine will get the call, but the five-cylinder from the H3 is a likely candidate. Robert Lutz, the vice president in charge of products, is rumored to be a strong supporter of the new H4. Lutz is the former head of Jeep, so he should know how to compete against it.
Watch out, Jeep!
