Photos: 2026 GMC Hummer EV humiliates five elite supercars in 15-run drag race

The 2026 GMC Hummer EV Carbon Fiber Edition has demonstrated remarkable acceleration prowess by outperforming five elite supercars—including the Ferrari F8 Tributo and Porsche Taycan Turbo S—in a series of 15 consecutive drag race runs. Despite its substantial weight of over four tons, the Hummer EV’s 1,160-horsepower tri-motor system and specialized "Watts to Freedom" launch mode enabled it to reach 60 mph in just 2.8 seconds, consistently out-launching lighter and traditionally faster competitors. This electric "supertruck" leverages instant torque delivery and advanced torque vectoring to overcome its massive inertia, defying expectations based on weight and conventional mechanical transmissions. While GMC advertises an impressive 13,000 lb-ft of torque measured at the wheels, the actual motor torque is approximately 1,100 lb-ft, which still provides more than enough force to outperform high-revving internal combustion engines. The Hummer EV’s launch control system optimizes aer
