Is Hummer made by Toyota?
No, Hummer is not made by Toyota. Hummer is a brand of large off-road vehicles that was originally produced by General Motors (GM). The Hummer brand was discontinued in 2010, but was later revived and is now owned by a different company, not Toyota.
Hummer's History and Ownership
Hummer was first introduced in 1992 as a civilian version of the military Humvee vehicle. The Hummer brand was owned and produced by General Motors (GM) from 1999 to 2010. During this time, GM produced several Hummer models, including the H1, H2, and H3. However, in 2010, GM discontinued the Hummer brand due to declining sales and the economic recession.
After GM discontinued the Hummer brand, the rights to the Hummer name and designs were purchased by a Chinese company called Sichuan Tengzhong Heavy Industrial Machinery Company in 2010. However, this deal fell through, and the Hummer brand remained dormant until 2020, when it was revived by a different company, Hummer EV, which is now producing an all-electric Hummer model.
Throughout its history, Hummer has never been associated with Toyota. Toyota is a separate Japanese automaker that is known for producing a wide range of vehicles, including sedans, SUVs, and trucks, but the Hummer brand has always been distinct from Toyota's lineup.
