Hummer H3 2009 Kuwait Prices & Specs

The H3 is the smallest addition to the Hummer line-up. Based on the Chevrolet Trailblazer platform, it is a midsized, five-passenger 4WD wagon that carries the military design cues and off-road capabilities of the Hummer H1, but puts them in a smaller and ultimately more affordable package. For 2009, a pickup version with a longer wheelbase was added, dubbed the H3T, which can fit a dirt-bike or two in its sizeable bed. The H3 and the H3T provide a good level of off-roading equipment, with some luxury features to boot, and at a very good price. All models come with a 3.7-litre five-cylinder engine, with a standard 5-speed manual or an optional 4-speed automatic. The 5.3-litre V8 engine finally became available in the summer of 2009 for the H3 wagon, mated to a 4-speed automatic. The H3 delivers serious off-road capability, with low-range gearing and good ground clearance. The base price includes cloth seating for five, power windows and locks, remote keyless entry, a CD audio system, cruise control and all-terrain tyres on 16-inch wheels. Safety features include ABS brakes, traction control, frontal and side-impact airbags and a tyre-pressure monitoring system. Special features on the V8 Alpha model include a unique calibration for the ABS brakes in 4-Low mode, a rear axle is set to a 4.10 ratio compared with the previous 4.56, a standard rear-view camera system, and stability control designed to assist with hill starts. Options include leather seating, chrome wheels, in-dash six-CD changer, navigation, a power sunroof and more.
