Hummer’s sale to Sichuan Tengzhong Heavy Industrial Machinery Co. Ltd (yikes) should be finalized by December 1st.

Hummer’s Chinese owners are planning to change the public’s perception through the launch of two new fuel-efficient models.

And yes, another number, another model. According to Hummer, the H5 will retain Hummer’s off-road status but will place a heavy emphasis on fuel economy. In fact, Hummer is working on hybrid and even all-electric drivetrains.
