6.0i V8 (329 Hp) 4x4 Automatic Verdict:

Rating 4 stars

Performance Verdict

The 6.0L LQ4 V8 provides robust power and ample torque for the H2 SUT's substantial weight, ensuring confident acceleration and strong towing capabilities, though it's not designed for speed.

Fuel Economy

Fuel economy is a significant drawback, with a combined consumption of 22 l/100 km reflecting its large displacement and heavy-duty nature, making it a costly vehicle to run.

Best Use Case: Off-road adventures, heavy towing, and making a bold statement on the highway where its size and power can be appreciated.

Pros and Cons:

Pros:

  • • Iconic and distinctive styling with immense road presence
  • • Exceptional off-road capability with robust 4x4 system
  • • Powerful V8 engines offer strong acceleration and towing capacity
  • • Spacious and commanding interior with good visibility
  • • Durable and reliable GM powertrain components

Cons:

  • • Extremely poor fuel economy across all engine options
  • • Massive size makes it challenging to maneuver and park in urban environments
  • • Truck-like handling and ride quality, not as refined as luxury SUVs
  • • Interior materials, while durable, may not feel premium for its price point
  • • High running costs beyond just fuel, including tires and maintenance
