El enorme Hummer se convirtió en un icono gracias a tres cosas: La Guerra del Golfo, el cine y el “cachas” Arnold Scharzenegger, que pidió una versión civil porque le parecía “muy práctico” … vivir para ver. Este mastodonte terminó fracasando. Pero unos gallegos de Santiago de Compostela decidieron hacer algo parecido, pero bien hecho… y triunfaron. Te contamos los detalles. Valen la pena. Vamos a centrar en la historia del verdadero Hummer, que luego se denominó H1 para diferenciarlo de las versiones civiles posteriores, H2 y H3…. que no estaban bien resueltas, la verdad. Volvemos nuestra mirada a finales del S.XX y al ejército norteamericano. Hasta esos años los coches que prestaban servicio en el ejército más poderoso del Mundo eran prácticamente los mismos Jeep de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, actualizados y puesto al día. Pero las cosas estaban cambiando y los norteamericanos buscaban un nuevo vehículo más capaz, para poder transportar más y mejor armamento, que pudiera blindarse por arriba y por abajo. Así que en 1983 los USA lanzaron un concurso dotado con 1,2 millones de dólares para fabricar 55.000 unidades de un vehículo denominado HMMWV, las siglas de High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle. Es de donde viene el nombre de “Humvee” que algunos consideran sinónimo de Hummer. Este concurso se incrementó a 1.6 millones de dólares y 70.000 unidades…. O sea, que era muy apetecible. Y se lo adjudicó AM General, creadora del original Hummer que saltó a la fama a finales de los 80 en la Guerra del Golfo. Gracias a sus participaciones en diversos conflictos el coche se hace popular y aparece en distintas películas como “La Roca”, alguna de 007, “Transformers” … y, por supuesto, en series como la popularísima “CSI Miami” en la que el infalible Horatio Caine tiene uno. También apareció en películas bélicas. Fracaso por varios motivos. El primero, la versión “civil” nace en 1992, justo cuando sufrimos una crisis económica a nivel mundial. Por otro lado, alcanza la presidencia de los USA Bill Clinton quien quizás no sea un “pacificador” pero comparado con su antecesor George W. Bush… pues, por comparación, sí. Se reduce de forma apreciable tanto la presencia de los USA en diversos conflictos como el presupuesto de defensa, que es algo más ajustado. ¡Ya estaba harto de acrónimos con palabras inglesas! VAMTAC es el acrónimo de “Vehículo de Alta Movilidad Táctico” y es un producto de la UROVESA, que a su vez deriva de URO Vehículos Especiales S.A. Esta empresa nacida en Santiago de Compostela, provincia de La Coruña, Galicia, España fue fundada en 1981 y se ha dedicado a fabricar, como bien indica su nombre, vehículos especiales, muy particularmente, aquellos destinados en la lucha contra el fuego. En 1984 aparece el primer TT, de hasta 18 toneladas, que inicialmente tiene dos versiones, una destinada a los bomberos y otra a usos militares. Sucesor de este primer TT es el actual VAMTAC. UROVESA ha sabido encontrar suministradores de calidad y recurre a motores IVECO o Steyr y cajas de cambio y transfer de estas dos marcas y también de Allison. En la actualidad hay versiones militares capaces de albergar todo tipo de armamento y para diversos usos especiales como bomberos de intervención rápida, policía, ambulancias, cisterna, entre otros. Equipan motores de 6 cilindros en línea de entre 187 y 245 CV cuentan con una eficaz tracción total permanente y encontrarás versiones que van desde los 5.300 kg a los 11.000 kg de MMA, es decir, el propio peso del coche más la carga máxima. Aproximadamente 3.000 unidades prestan servicio en el ejército español, pero no es el único, pues el URO se exporta a Arabia Saudita, Bélgica, Irak y casi otros 10 países distintos. ¿Cuál es mejor? Si alguno me dice que esta comparativa es injusta porque el VAMTAC es más moderno… pues le diré que depende. Porque el Hummer nace a mediados de los 80, más o menos al mismo tiempo que el primer TT de URO. Si es cierta una cosa: Los diversos TT de URO no ha dejado de evolucionar mientras que el Hummer a lo largo de su existencia no cambio demasiado. Por diseño y por la integración, sensata, de la electrónica en el coche, para mí el URO es un coche mejor. No es que sea enormemente amplio por dentro, pero lo es más que el Hummer. Y desde luego, tampoco es un tiro, pero es claramente más dinámico que el Hummer. Los Hummer dieron problemas de todo tipo, sobre todo debido a su elevado peso que castigaba la dirección y las suspensiones. Los motores aguantaban bien. Respecto a los URO he oído criticas acerca de los problemas de fugas de las suspensiones neumáticas y poco más. Honestamente no veo que sea nada serio viendo el éxito que tienen.

El Lamborghini LM002 no fue un todoterreno cualquiera. Fue un todoterreno de lujo de altas prestaciones con motor V12 capaz de comerse cualquier terreno. Su relación con la militaria es que fue escogido por el Ejército de los Estados Unidos para adoptarlo como vehículo de cometidos generales, e incluso con posibilidad de portar armamento como ametralladoras o cañones ligeros. Pero la cosa no fue bien Para la Lamborghini en América, pero tuvo algunos pedidos de ejércitos árabes. Eso sí, el famoso Humvee bebió muchísimo del diseño y la tecnología del Rambo Lambo, aunque su fabricante, AM General, no quiera reconocerlo. Te lo cuenta Julio 'Caronte'.

The Joint Light Tactical Vehicle (JLTV) is a vehicle that 'passed' a reliability demonstration test that appeared to suggest it was three times more reliable than the requirement. But yet, when the vehicles were provided to the soldiers, sailors and airmen ... they were unreliable. Sound familiar? The post SOR 876 Joint Light Tactical Vehicle Case Study appeared first on Accendo Reliability.
Indiana Senator Todd Young visited the AM General military assembly plant in St. Joseph County Thursday, ahead of a production startup for a run of Joint Light Tactical Vehicles, similar in some ways to the Humvees the plant used to produce. The contract will cover about 20 thousand of the new vehicles, with potentially hundreds of jobs tied to the production run. First deliveries to the military are expected in about a year and a half. Federal investigators looking into the train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio say it was quote: 100 percent preventable. It appears an overheated bearing in a freight car axle caused the derailment, and better maintenance and stronger warning systems could have prevented the wreck. The train was not speeding, and no problems have been found with the track. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg was there Thursday. Roughly two million Cosori Air Fryers are being recalled over fire and burn hazards. Thursday's announcement from the U.S. Consumer Product Safety and Commission is coupled with similar recalls in Canada and Mexico. The air fryers were sold between 2018 and 2022 in Target, Home Depot, and Best Buy stores, as well as on Amazon.

Der Hummer H1 – Traumauto oder Macho-Schleuder? Keine Frage, der Auftritt des Hummer H1 ist eher rustikal und das liegt schon in seiner Herkunft. Die Basis für den Hummer H1 ist das „High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle“, kurz Humvee, der US-Army. Dieses Allzweck-Gefährt sollte einige in die Jahre gekommenen Fahrzeuge des US-Militärs ablösen, vor allem den Ford Mutt M151. Als dann die ersten Fahrzeuge 1983 unter der Bezeichnung M998 von AM General an die Army geliefert wurden, sorgte das martialische Auftreten des OFF-Roaders für starke „will-haben“-Reflexe innerhalb der männlichen amerikanischen Bevölkerung. Allen voran war es Arnold Schwarzenegger, der sich als erste Privatperson einen Humvee zulegte. Spätestens mit der Fernsehberichterstattung zum Zweiten Irak-Krieg wurde der Humvee weltweit bekannt, fuhr er doch in gefühlt jedem zweiten Bild irgendwo im Hintergrund durch die Landschaft. Trotzdem erhörte erst 1992 AM General das Flehen der potentiellen Kunden, endlich eine Zivilversion des Allzweck-Fahrzeugs auf den Markt zu bringen. Besonders kreativ waren die Entwicklungsingenieure dabei nicht, ist der Hummer H1 doch fast baugleich zu seinem uniformierten Bruder. Lediglich ein paar Zentimeter mehr Höhe im Fahrgastraum und eine Lederausstattung nebst CD-Player und Klimaanlage gönnte man dem zivilen Ableger. Trotzdem fand der Hummer H1 seine Kunden, unter Ihnen so illustre Promis wie der bereits erwähnte Schwarzenegger, aber auch Stars der RAP-Szene, wie Tupac Shakur, 50Cent oder Snoop Dog, liebten das für den Straßenverkehr leicht überdimensionierte Gefährt. Von den drei Automobilliebhabern am Mikrofon ist allerdings nur einer in den Hummer H1 verliebt - und das ist Ron. Oli findet die flache Schnauze überhaupt nicht schön und für den feingeistigen Fredo ist das Auto einfach zu viel automobiles Testosteron. Was das alles mit Lamborghini, China und Fußball zu tun hat – das erfahrt ihr in diesem Podcast.

Show #846 Good morning, good afternoon and good evening wherever you are in the world, welcome to EV News Daily for Tuesday 21st July 2020. It’s Martyn Lee here and I go through every EV story so you don't have to. Thank you to MYEV.com for helping make this show, they’ve built the first marketplace specifically for Electric Vehicles. It’s a totally free marketplace that simplifies the buying and selling process, and help you learn about EVs along the way too. TESLA’S MASSIVE MODEL Y STAMPING MACHINE "Recent images from Tesla’s Gigafactory Shanghai complex suggest that the installation of the Made in China Model Y stamping press is nearing completion. The photos bode well for the progress of the Shanghai based factory, as it suggests that trial production runs of the Model Y could indeed begin sooner than expected, perhaps as early as the end of this year. " reports TEslarati: "The pictures from Giga Shanghai feature a massive stamping press that looks all but completely set up. One end of the massive machine also included a banner that reads: “Good fortune for finishing the installation of Giga Shanghai stamping line. With the installation of the Model Y factory’s stamping press in mind, as well as the presence of a sky bridge between the two production facilities in the Giga Shanghai complex, it appears that Tesla is now only months away from starting trial production runs of the Model Y for the Chinese market.” https://www.teslarati.com/tesla-model-y-giga-press-china-first-look/ TESLA MODEL 3 & MODEL Y WILL GET “UNIVERSAL” BATTERY PACK “SOON” "In addition to some notes about the Tesla Semi battery and the Tesla Semi pilot production line “coming along,” we also learned this week that the Model 3 and Model Y packs will soon be “universal” — the same for both of them." according to CleanTechnica: "it appears they have been somewhat different so far. It seems that the differences come down to manufacturing improvements Tesla (and/or Panasonic) has made for the Model Y batteries. However, this only relates to US-built vehicles at the moment. The Model Y battery manufacturing improvements will be passed on to production of Model 3 batteries, presumably as Tesla is able to update the production lines, but none of this applies to the LFP batteries from CATL that the Model 3 that is made in Shanghai, China, uses. One final note from that tweet indicates the heat pump that is in the Model Y will eventually be put into the Model 3 as well" https://cleantechnica.com/2020/07/21/tesla-model-3-model-y-will-get-universal-battery-pack-soon/ TESLA SECRET PROJECT PALLADIUM: NEW MODEL S AND MODEL X ARE COMING "Electrek has discovered a new Tesla secret project called “Palladium,” and it involves some important updates to the Model S and Model X. The project involves building new production lines for updated versions of the Model S and Model X. It’s still unclear how far-reaching the Palladium update is going to be, again due to Tesla keeping the information compartmentalized, but it sounds like it could be significant." says Elecrrek: "According to people familiar with the matter, the new Palladium update is going to involve new battery modules and drive units that are going to serve as the basis of the upcoming “Plaid” version of Model S and Model X. The new powertrain is going to enable a tri-motor configuration for plaid and feature increased performance and efficiency." https://electrek.co/2020/07/21/tesla-secret-project-palladium-new-model-s-model-x/ CADILLAC LYRIQ EV WILL HAVE ENORMOUS 33-INCH DASH DISPLAY Cadillac wants to make sure its first electric vehicle gets noticed. With that in mind, the automaker has shared images of the gigantic curved 33-inch display that will cover most of the dashboard of the upcoming Lyriq EV." reports Car & Driver: "The electric SUV's curved 33-inch OLED display will serve as the infotainment system, instrument gauge, and control for lighting and HUD to the left of the steering wheel. Cadillac says that while the giant screen is separated into three individual displays, the entire screen can be used as a single unit—likely while the car is stopped and charging." https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a33383709/cadillac-lyriq-large-display/ CRAZY MUSTANG MACH-E TIRE-KILLING MACHINE TEASED BY FORD PERFORMANCE It’s called the Mach-E 1400, so-called because it has 1400hp (1381bhp). Thanks to the ever-expanding world of electric hypercars that figure isn’t as shocking as it perhaps ought to be, but the way this Mach-E achieves it will raise some eyebrows - it uses seven motors." according to Car Throttle: "That’s five more units than fitted to the GT, the most powerful road-going version of the Mach-E. Three feed the front differential, while the remaining four are arranged “in pancake style” at the back, connected to the rear diff via a single driveshaft. Powering the heptad of motors is a 56.8kWh battery pack, which is cooled while charged using ‘di-electric coolant’. It can be optimised for drifty shenanigans (it’s surely only a matter of time before Ford-sponsored Ken Block gets his hands on it) or for lap time heroics. When going for the latter, the Mach E 1400 can rely on a giant rear wing, a huge front splitter and other aero devices to generate vast amounts of downforce, with 1000kg available at 160mph." https://www.carthrottle.com/post/this-prototype-ford-mustang-mach-e-has-1400bhp-and-seven-motors/ GMC'S ELECTRIC HUMMER COULD SOMEDAY SERVE ALONGSIDE THE HUMVEE IN THE U.S. ARMY "Every civilian Hummer model traces its roots to AM General's Humvee, which made its combat debut when the United States invaded Panama in 1989. Fast forward to the 2020s, and the tables have turned. The born-again Hummer that will arrive with an electric powertrain and a GMC emblem could spawn a military-spec truck." says Atublog: ""[The upcoming Hummer] is a full-size truck with 400 miles of range and 1,000 pound-feet of torque, it's a very highly capable vehicle. That could provide a great base platform for an electric vehicle to be used in the military context," said David Albritton, the president of General Motors Defense, in an interview with GM Authority." https://www.autoblog.com/2020/07/21/gmc-humvee-electric-military-vehicle/ RENAULT TWINGO Z.E. PRICE EMERGES IN GERMANY AND IT IS HIGH "The Renault Twingo Z.E., announced earlier this year, is a new electric model scheduled for market launch in Europe in 2020. It will be produced in the Novo Mesto plant in Slovenia, alongside conventional versions. The official pricing was not yet announced, but the Twingo Z.E. appeared in the latest edition of the list of EVs eligible for subsidies in Germany, managed by the Federal Office of Economics and Export Control (BAFA)." says InsideEVs: "The starting net price of the Renault Twingo Z.E. will be €20.831.94, which depending on VAT will be: 16% VAT (by the end of 2020): €24,165.05. 19% VAT from 2021: €24,790.00. That sounds a lot for a tiny car with a 22 kWh battery, doesn't it?" The problem with the price of the Renault Twingo Z.E., and other EVs as well - pointed out by PushEVs - is that at high incentives (in Germany it's up to €9,000 off) manufacturers sets relatively high prices, while customers will get the cars effectively much cheaper. The margin on the Twingo Z.E. (at a price two times higher than ICE) must be tremendous. The question is, whether it's the right way to go, because it's almost certain that at lower subsidies, the initial price would be lower, and more "realistic."" https://insideevs.com/news/435053/renault-twingo-ze-price-germany/ OXFORD TRIALS ELECTRIC RCV "Oxford city council is trialling its first electric refuse collection vehicle (RCV) this week, ahead of plans to replace all 27 diesel lorries in its fleet." reports Lets Recycle: "Oxford Direct Services (ODS), which manages waste collection for the council and local businesses, is assessing how the lorry performs collecting waste from household and business premises across the city. ODS claims the vehicle, provided by Warwickshire-based lorry manufacturer Dennis Eagle, is the first “purpose-built, fully integrated” electric RCV built by an original equipment manufacturer in the UK. The trial is taking place between 21 and 23 July. Maria Warner, waste and recycling services manager at ODS, described it as a significant investment and a major step forward for Oxford." https://www.letsrecycle.com/news/latest-news/oxford-trials-electric-rcv/ You can listen to all 845 previous episodes of this this for free, where you get your podcasts from, plus the blog https://www.evnewsdaily.com/ – remember to subscribe, which means you don’t have to think about downloading the show each day, plus you get it first and free and automatically.

Paul Wilson, Chris Ehmke and JP Veillon drive a 600 RWHP Duramax powered Humvee. This ain't your ordinary AM General. The build features a Stealth 67G2 turbo, Exergy Performance Sportsman Cp3, built Allison transmission, XI Diesel intercooler stack and many other mods. A special thanks to Blair Outlan of XI Diesel for not only building this rig but letting us have some fun with it.

It may be hard to believe but the historic Willys Jeep wasn’t created by an automaker but rather an independent manufacturer, that today goes by the name of AM General. As the only full-scale contract assembly facility in the U.S., the company currently produces everything from the military’s HUMVEE to the Mercedes-Benz R Class Crossover. Joining host John McElroy and his panel in studio to discuss his company and what it creates today is Chief Executive Officer Andy Hove.
