The GMC HUMMER EV "supertruck" could turn out to be a real hero.

 

The 2022 GMC HUMMER EV is designed to be an off-road beast, with all-new features developed to conquer virtually any obstacle or terrain.

The 2022 GMC HUMMER EV is designed to be an off-road beast, with all-new features developed to conquer virtually any obstacle or terrain.

The first production example of the electric 1,000 hp electric pickup will be auctioned at the Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale event in March to raise money for the Stephen Siler Tunnel to Towers foundation, which helps injured first responders and military members and the families of the fallen with housing needs.

The off-road truck has a starting price of $112,595, but will likely sell for much more than that. When Chevrolet auctioned the last front-engine Corvette for the same charity at a Barrett-Jackson event in 2019, it raised $2.7 million for the organization.

The HUMMER won’t be the only high-performance pickup on the block in Scottsdale. Ram is selling the first 702 horsepower 1500 TRX to benefit the Southeastern Michigan 211 health and human services organization, which offers assistance to veterans.

Both trucks will be sharing the stage with a significant Chevrolet Corvette, too. It’s the first of the convertible mid-engine 2020 Corvette Stingrays and will be sold on behalf of the United Way for Southeastern Michigan.                                                                                                                                                                               SEE VIDEOS      ;    https://www.foxnews.com/auto/first-gmc-hummer-ev-millions-charity

First GMC HUMMER EV and Ford Bronco auctioned for millions

Rebooted 4x4s sold at Barrett-Jackson charity auction

Fox News Autos test drive: 2021 Ford Bronco Sport

The 2021 Ford Bronco Sport is a crossover inspired by the original Bronco that's ready for adventure, says Fox News Autos Editor Gary Gastelu.

The 2022 GMC HUMMER EV and 2021 Ford Bronco are set to do battle off road later this year, but round one goes to the rebooted HUMMER.

The first of each of the new trucks off the assembly line (VIN 001) were auctioned for charity at the Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale event on Saturday night.

The burly HUMMER EV brought in the bigger haul going for $2,500,000, with all of the proceeds earmarked for the Stephen Siller Tunnels to Towers foundation. The all-electric truck will have a starting price of $112,495 when it hits showrooms this fall.

The Bronco was a fully-loaded two-door First Edition with a sticker price around $60,000 that received a high bid of $1,075,000, which will benefit the National Forest Foundation and Outward Bound.

Several other charity auctions were held during the event that included the first 2021 Ram 1500 TRX ($410,000) and first 2021 Ford Mustang Mach 1 ($500,000)

The prices of all were upstaged by the sale of the only remaining 1966 Shelby Cobra 427 Super Snake 427, however, which went for a hammer price of $5 million, which translates to a $5.5 million sale after auction fees are added.                                                         SEE TWEETS    ;     https://www.foxnews.com/auto/first-gmc-hummer-ev-ford-bronco-auctioned-millions
