INTERIOR

SPARE TIRE COVER
The new body color hard spare tire cover with chrome accent is only available on the H3x.
CHROME WHEELS
This sleek chrome wheel is available on all 2008 H3x vehicles.
INNOVATION
ENGINE
Breathing life into the H3x is the Vortec 3700 5-cylinder engine that generates an impressive 242 lb-ft of low-end torque at 4600 rpm and strikes a perfect balance between performance and fuel efficiency*. Being both high-tech and lightweight, this "smart engine" is highly durable, making it the perfect choice for the H3x, allowing us to offer a 100,000-Mile/5-Year Transferable Powertrain Warranty, whichever comes first.†
*EPA estimated mpg 14 city/18 highway.
†See your dealer for limited warranty details.
TRANSMISSION
The StabiliTrak Stability Enhancement System, standard on the H3x, provides more precise, all-weather control by applying braking forces to help correct oversteer or understeer. This is particularly useful on slick surfaces or during emergency maneuvers, such as swerving to avoid an object in the road.
TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM (TCS)
In a well-built machine, power and control go hand in hand. The H3x is no exception. To control all the power rippling beneath the metal skin of the H3x, the state-of-the-art traction control system (TCS) is an indispensable asset you have at your disposal.
When off-roading or simply on slippery road surfaces, TCS continually monitors the rotational speed of each wheel. If one wheel is spinning more than the others, TCS applies braking pressure to the spinning wheel to help it regain its composure and transfers available torque to the wheels that have traction. Using this system, an H3x with three spinning wheels can still move forward, even up a 10% incline.
BRAKES
4-CHANNEL ANTI-LOCK BRAKING
The 4-channel Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS), standard on the H3x, allows you steering control even under extreme braking, without tire "lock-up." The ABS in the H3x also adjusts to changing roads, helping you come to a smooth, controlled stop on almost any surface. For example, after heavy rains a washboard type pattern can develop on dirt roads. The H3x’s ABS is able to recognize this surface and react by preventing the ABS from continually repeating a cycle of applying and depressurizing the brakes.
DYNAMIC REAR PROPOTIONING
Another integral part of this intelligent braking system is Dynamic Rear Brake Proportioning. This system modulates rear brake pressure and ensures that braking is balanced between both front and rear brakes. In English, that means the nose of the H3x won’t dive down while braking hard. And in any language, that means your passengers might not even notice what just happened.
And as is the case with all HUMMERS, there’s more.
STABILITRAK STABILITY ENHANCEMENT SYSTEM
The StabiliTrak Stability Enhancement System, standard on the H3x, provides more precise, all-weather control by applying braking forces to help correct oversteer or understeer. This is particularly useful on slick surfaces or during emergency maneuvers, such as swerving to avoid an object in the road.
FRONT SUSPENSION
The H3x features a Short/Long Arm (SLA) independent front suspension and a Hotchkiss design, dual-stage, leaf-spring rear suspension. The front suspension uses an aluminum-forged upper control arm and a cast modular iron lower control arm, providing robustness and strength when off-roading.
Both the front and rear suspension systems feature microcellular urethane jounce bumpers, which act like secondary springs. This not only increases the H3x’s load carrying capability but, more importantly, prevents the suspension from hitting the frame on severe terrain.
Both the front and rear systems also use 46 mm, monotube, gas-charged shocks, same as in the H2, that come with hydraulic rebound cutoffs specifically designed for the H3x. These cutoffs act like secondary absorbers and help smooth shock travel as it reaches its full length. In addition, the front shock absorbers also have an internal, microcellular auxiliary spring that further enhances the vehicle’s ride. (Microcellular urethane provides better impact absorption and longer life than rubber.) Lastly, the suspension system uses a 36 mm, tubular, front stabilizer bar and a 25 mm, solid, rear stabilizer bar that remarkably improve cornering by suppressing body roll.
FRAME
A 3-piece, modular, fully welded, ladder-type frame lays a formidable foundation for the chassis of the H3x. The frame includes high-strength steel side rails and crossmembers for extra muscle, durability, enhanced off-road capability and on-road comfort. The frame’s width builds stability into the H3x right from the start.
ON THE INSIDE
The H3x features plush bucket seating in standard leather appointed that comfortably houses 5 adults. The front seat headrests are embroidered with the premium "H3" logo as a finishing touch to double-stitched "French" seams throughout the rest of the interior. Both the driver and passenger can enjoy eight-way power adjustable seats.
The front and back row seats all come with dual density foam and soft bolsters to provide additional comfort and help support during severe off-road maneuvers. In addition, the back row seats have a 60/40 split that can be folded down to create 56.4 cubic feet of cargo space.*
The leather-appointed seating comes in Ebony with Pewter piping, Light Cashmere with Ebony piping or Ebony with Morocco-toned seat inserts and piping.
*Cargo and load capacity are limited by weight and distribution.
XM RADIO
XM Radio* comes standard with three trial months of service on every H3x.
XM has the programming variety to find out what turns you ON. Whether you want to be entertained or informed, to laugh, think, or sing, XM’s got the perfect channel for you – with the best in commercial-free music, news, sports, talk, comedy, traffic and weather and more.
*Available in the 48 contiguous United States. Require $12.95 monthly subscription sold separately after three trial months. All fees and programming subject to change. Subscription subject to customer agreement. For more information, visit gm.xmradio.com
ONSTAR
DRIVING CONFIDENCE
See how OnStar is giving drivers greater confidence on the road.
Standard for 1-year on HUMMER H3x is the state-of-the-art OnStar system. First and foremost, OnStar means safety. In an emergency, such as vehicle collision, your OnStar system can automatically notify your OnStar Advisor and provide your H3x’s exact location. The OnStar Advisor can attempt to contact you to inquire whether you need assistance. Also, the OnStar Advisor can notify emergency services and send help to you.*
But, we hope that never happens. So we made sure OnStar would still be useful to you in a multitude of other ways. For example, if you ever make the unfortunate mistake of locking your keys inside your HUMMER, you can call the OnStar center and an Advisor can send a signal to unlock your doors remotely.† If your "check engine" light ever illuminates, or you suspect trouble, at the touch of a button on your H3x’s rear-view mirror, your OnStar Advisor can help by running a diagnostic check of your engine, even while you’re still driving. Or, if you ever forget where you parked your H3x, you can alert OnStar to activate your horn and lights to easily locate your truck.
In the event of theft, OnStar can also attempt to pinpoint your H3x’s exact location in real time, aiding greatly in vehicle recovery.† Also, OnStar can help you stay connected with OnStar Hands-Free Calling, which allows you to make and receive hands-free calls in your H3x while keeping your hands on the wheel and your eyes on the road.‡
AND WITH YOUR NEW H3x YOU WILL RECEIVE THE ONSTAR SAFE AND SOUND SERVICE PLAN.

*OnStar acts as a link to emergency service providers. Visit www.onstar.com or call 1.888.4.ONSTAR (1.888.466.7827) for system limitations and details.
†Success varies with conditions.
‡OnStar Hands-Free Calling requires a Hands-Free Calling enabled vehicle, existing OnStar service contract and prepaid minutes or enrollment in a shared minutes plan. Not available in certain markets. Calls may be made in U.S. and Canada only.
