The Hummer H1 was based on the M998 Humvee and created AM General.
Originally designed strictly for military use, the off-road vehicle
was released to the civilian market due to market demand.
The Hummer H1 was available in three major variants: a
convertible-like soft top, a four-door hard top Sport Utility Truck
and an "Alpha Wagon" body version.
The Hummer H1 shares some common driveline parts with the HMMWV
(Military Humvee). These include brakes, axles, frame and major
body panels (hood, tailgate and quarter panels) are shared between
the HMMWV and Hummer H1. All H1s and HMMWVs were produced on the
same assembly line; of which civilian H1s were then painted and
finished in a separate building opposite the parking lot.
The H1 models are inherently stable due to their wide track. They
can ford 30 inches (76 cm) of water and climb a 22-inch (56 cm)
step. Their stock ground clearance of 16 inches (41 cm) is made
possible by tucking driveline components inside a channel in the
central space between the left and right seats. They have high
approach/departure angles of 72/37.5 degrees. Most H1s are equipped
with a Central Tire Inflation System (CTIS), which enables the
driver to increase or decrease the tire air pressure at the push of
a button, since lower tire pressures are more suited for off-road,
and higher tire pressures are desirable on-road.
The H1 features 16 inches (40 cm) of ground clearance as well as
aggressive approach and departure angles, allowing it to clamber
over a 22-inch (56 cm) high obstacle, handle a 60 percent grade and
wade through up to 30 inches (76 cm) of water."3 #fn3
Hummer H1s have other unusual features, such as inboard brakes and
portal gears that allow the drivetrain's half shafts a higher
placement, for greater ground clearance. The radiator is up high,
sloping over the engine on a forward-hinged hood. The air intake is
high-mount, enabling the H1 to ford waist-level water. Rather than
using simple runflat tires, magnesium-aluminum alloy or rubber
inserts are an optional feature for run-flat ability.
