The new 2009 Hummer model.

DOHA: The wait is over for Hummer fans as the all-new 2009 Hummer H3T is now available at Al Mannai Trading Co. automotive showrooms across Qatar.

The H3T is based on the architecture of the popular H3, but features a five-passenger crew cab and a separate 1.5 metres long bed.

“The new and exclusive H3T has already made global headlines with its unique exterior, luxurious interior and distinctive specification. We are equally excited about the response that this vehicle will receive in the Qatari market,” said Adib Takieddine, Marketing Manager of Cadillac, Hummer & Saab in the Middle East.

The H3T is bigger than a midsize pick-up and smaller than a full-size pick-up, creating its own niche in the market. It also is infused with the attributes expected of a Hummer, including exceptional off-road capability and a premium interior that is as functional as it is comfortable.

“With its unique size and Hummer traits, the H3T is ideal for the customer who works hard and plays harder,” added Takieddine. “It offers the combination of SUV versatility and Hummer off-road prowess that delivers customers to the trail in style.”

In addition to its segment-defying size, the H3T also stands apart from other trucks with its signature Hummer off-road capability. It is the only midsize truck to come standard with full-time four-wheel drive and functional skid shields. It also is the only midsize truck to offer front and rear locking differentials, as well as 16-inch tyres.

The H3T is also equally capable and more practical as it can tow up to 2,676 kg with ease.
