In a recent video, the electric vehicle was seen criss-crossing across snow while performing some adventurous moves on the off-road tyres. The automobile enthusiasts can make out that Hummer EV also features a drift mode, which uses the car’s stability control electronics to slide at a particular angle. 

Crabwalk feature

The crabwalk facilitates navigation through tight spaces. The feature enables the driver to drive diagonally by rotating the rear wheels in the same direction as the front wheels, up to 10 degrees at low speeds.

Features

The other exciting feature is that the pickup truck can make use of an Extract Mode to raise itself by nearly 15 centimetres. It could be helpful while clearing a boulder through the deep water.
