The Hummer H1 Alpha was a one-year production model of the regular H1  that featured a handful of important mechanical changes. A more powerful engine, another gear for the transmission and bigger brakes greatly improved performance over the non-Alpha H1 and made the beast the best it had ever been.

Unfortunately, the same shortcomings of piloting an H1 still applied. The massive dimensions still make maneuvering in city traffic — not to mention parking — a nightmare. The cabin remained about as luxurious as a postal truck, and with the tucked-up driveline components taking up valuable passenger space, the seats were still comically small.

This would be the last year of this big boy’s toy. By this time, the entry fee into this overkill club was well over $100,000 and diesel was flirting with $3 per gallon. General Motors decided to send the H1 off into retirement and let the H2 and H3 models speak for the Hummer brand.
