Hummer H2 fuel consumption was its most notorious attribute — EPA didn't rate the H2 because at over 8,500 lb GVWR it was exempt; real-world mileage typically 10-12 mpg combined. Production at AM General Mishawaka. Total H2 production approximately 152,000 cars (peaking 2003 at ~35k, declining to ~5k for 2009). Killed mid-2009 with the brand. Original list prices $50,000-$70,000 across the run.
