H1 Alphas Arriving Now
HUMMER's 2006 H1 Alpha is arriving at dealerships now (Feb. '05), the first vehicle in HUMMER's Alpha performance series, which the automaker says will take the brand's "legendary off-road capabilities to an even higher level."
With a manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP) of $126,185 for the base open-top model, it's definitely not a vehicle the majority of us can own, but scarcity has been part of the HUMMER appeal since being offered to the public in 1992. The H1 hard-top models are priced higher, with an MSRP of $137,508.
Under the H1 Alpha Hood
- Duramax 6.6-liter V-8 turbo-diesel engine delivering 300 hp at 3000 rmp, a 46-percent increase over previous H1s
- Peak torque is 520 lb.-ft at 1500 rpm, an 18-percent increase
