The Hummer H1 has three common variants: a convertible-like soft top, a four-door hard top pickup truck and a Wagon body version. Other less known variants include a two-door pickup truck and a four-door slantback. The convertible/soft top and the station wagon versions were the last ones available in the mass market. The two door and four door pickup versions are only available in fleet livery.

As is typical of electric vehicles, the hybrid-electric Hummer can be stealthily quiet. In addition, at low speeds (10 mph or less) in all-electric operating mode the vehicle's electric motors give off a low "thermal signature" making it virtually impossible to detect using infrared sensor technology. The hybrid Hummer will increase the performance and flexibility of military forces while reducing the impact on the environment.
