Hummer Goes Silent Prior To China Sale

admin — Fri, 15 Jan 2010 14:54:18 +0000

Hummer, the brand that even General Motors and the eco-terrorists couldn’t kill, is going ahead with its sale to the Chinese. But for now, don’t expect to get a word from the SUV maker. They are keeping mouths shut tight, and even the production lines are shutting down (yes, the assembly of Hummers was still going on, believe it or not).

According to sources: “Effective January 19th, all Hummer production will stop, that includes the contract manufacturing at AM General for the Hummer H2 and the production at GM’s Shreveport, Louisiana plant where the Hummer H3 and H3T are built.”

Nick Richards, public relations representative for Hummer, stated that inventories for Hummers nationwide are up to hundreds of days on hand, after a run of 2010 models beginning in October. After a year when dealers have seen an 85% decline in sales year over year, GM’s decided to stop production until the sale to China’s Sichuan Tengzhong Heavy Industrial Machinery Corporation. But now, the deal has been cleared by United States regulators. Chinese agencies involved are taking their time completing its side of the process. Richards says Hummer is confident a deal will be reached, but was unable to provide a projected completion date.

Raser May Keep Hummer in America

America – F**K YEAH! At least that’s what Raser Technologies is saying, as they visit Washington DC in hopes to gain loans to purchase Hummer from GM, saving it from Chinese ownership. As we reported in the past, Chinese Military Defense Contractors were interested in purchasing Hummer, ever since General Motors spilled the beans about cutting off the big mother trucker brand.

Now it seems Raser, the company who produced an electric 100-mile-per-gallon H3 (which actually only gets 33 miles per gallon) is making a bid for the make. They strolled on down to Washington (or as it’s pronounced in the South Philly/Delaware region: ‘Warshington”) to “acquire government subsidies” in a bid for Hummer’s purchase, which they can rework for their own purpose – the evil plan of a fuel efficient Hummer!! Maybe next time it will actually reach 100 MPG before production begins.

China’s Hummer Knockoff company, Dongfeng, has brought a new angle on the camera/audio equipment hauling news vehicle – dubbed “Brave Soldier” – and is ready to battle all forms of prime time news. China’s HBTV turned their Brave Soldier into a satellite transmission vehicle to be able to broadcast from the most inhospitable places. HBTV has two satellite channels, HBTV-1 and HBTV-2.
