2006 HUMMER H3 Road Test Ratings

A more manageable Hummer than the larger H1 and H2, the H3 provides much the same versatility as its traditional mid-size SUV counterparts, but does so with the prestige of the Hummer badge.

Feels stable on the highway, but body roll is readily apparent when driven on winding roads. Braking distances are long. The engine isn't happy hauling around this much weight. Low-range and a differential lock help off-road.

Comfortable seats, ample room up front and a quieter than expected ride.

Good control layout, but cargo room isn't impressive and visibility is compromised by the body design.

A consistent Hummer design theme is complemented by above-average materials.
