The distinctive HUMMER style is now available as a unique mobile phone, with its design and controls inspired by the distinctive design and finish of the wheels and grille of HUMMER vehicles. Available from HUMMER dealerships from (date) the HUMMER HT1 combines leading-edge technology with a shape and range of colors inspired by the legendary American SUV range.
The HUMMER HT1 offers a unique style with its slider shape and touch panel that combines cutting-edge HUMMER-style design with authentic HUMMER paint colors including Yellow, Khaki and Sand. The phone can be additionally customised with exclusive HUMMER content including the choice of 10 wallpapers and 2 videos. Also included in the pack are two batteries in distinctive camouflage patterns to allow every user to select their own interpretation of HUMMER style.
Just like HUMMER vehicles, the HT1 mobile delivers in versatile performance too. The phone is multimedia accessible with essential tools including Bluetooth stereo, data modem, USB port, up to 2GB micro SD memory card extension, FM radio, 2-megapixel camera with digital zoom, audio player (MP3), video recorder (MEPG4) and e-mail facilities.
The HUMMER HT1’s go-anywhere ability also matches those of the iconic SUV. Compact dimensions of 96 x 49 x 14,9mm and a weight of around 100g make it easily portable, yet its Li-Ion 650mAh battery will allow up to 3 hours continuous talk time and a standby capability of up to 5 days. A triband capability enables global roaming if required.
A range of accessories include a new generation Bluetooth® headset with a rugged off-road design, shock and water resistant and with a unique rubber ear hook. Specially designed protective covers and leather cases are also offered to match the quintessential HUMMER features and were created to provide increased rugged durability for the HT1.
“The HT1 is a fun and stylish product which is aimed at young people, attracted by the HUMMER™ brand and looking for a mobile which represents their values“ says Gerard Jansen, COO of HUMMER Europe. “The HUMMER HT1 mobile is also set to further widen the awareness of the HUMMER’s iconic design to new audiences across Europe.”
The legendary range of HUMMER vehicles are now supported by a strong new HUMMER European dealer network with more than 40 outlets reflecting the rapid growth of the brand in Europe. Two model ranges, the HUMMER H2 and H3, both benefit from this increased support which also includes Roadside Assistance across Europe, valid for 48 months and a four-year, 100.000 km, warranty.
The iconic HUMMER H2 stands out in daily traffic with its distinctive square-cut profile. Available as SUV and SUT, the H2 is powered by a GM Vortec 6.0L V-8 that generates 242 kW (325 bhp) at 5200 rpm. The HUMMER H2 remains the all-terrain conqueror as well as offering a smooth drive for its occupants in every situation.
The HUMMER H3 is more compact, yet no less iconic than the H2. The H3 was fully re-designed and re-engineered to create a luxurious everyday vehicle for European driving conditions. It is approximately the same length as a larger family sedan, but powered by a 180 kW (244 bhp) GM Vortec 3.7 litre, inline five-cylinder engine, it offers all the performance and off-road capabilities which give HUMMER its legendary status, as well as the distinctive style which inspires the HT1 phone.
