Since it is in Edmunds, I guess I can post it here, without violating any confidential GM material....:D

LIVONIA, Mich. — The 2008 Hummer H2, which will hit showrooms in 2007, will get a midcycle enhancement that includes an updated interior and an engine upgrade (gee, DRTY I wonder what engine it will be :D ), Inside Line has learned.

Hummer general manager Susan Docherty would not give specifics on the H2's makeover. The 2006 full-size SUV is powered by a 6.0-liter V8 that makes 325 horsepower (more ponies :D )and 365 pound-feet of torque (more torque:D ).

Docherty said Hummer recently surveyed its buyers and discovered that 36 percent of them say they intend to take their vehicles off-road. She said that nugget of information was "noteworthy" because the conventional industry wisdom, as well as previous Hummer research, has been that fewer than 10 percent of SUV buyers take their vehicle off-road.

Docherty also reported that the Hummer brand outpaces every other General Motors brand when it comes to aftermarket accessories. Buyers of the under-$30,000 Hummer H3 load up their vehicles with $1,200 in GM aftermarket accessories. The average transaction price for the SUV is $36,000, she said.

"That means the H3 is definitely in premium territory," Docherty said.

What this means to you: Hummer buyers think of themselves as serious off-roaders, and the GM brand is hustling to keep pace with them.



Stay tuned....

Not that I know, but I'd imagine it's the new 6.2 V8 that's in the '07 Escalade.
