About the 2006 HUMMER H2
The 2006 HUMMER H2 is a performance with a 6000cc petrol engine. 76 of these vehicles were MOT tested in 2024, making it a rare model on UK roads. It ranks in the top 2% of all 2006 cars for reliability.
With an average of 52,269 miles at 18 years old, HUMMER H2 owners tend to use this car less than the typical driver. Very low mileage could mean the car has been garaged or used only for short trips, which can cause its own issues like battery drain and moisture buildup.
2006 HUMMER H2 Fuel Costs
The 6000cc petrol engine is on the larger side, so fuel won't be this car's strong point. Expect around 30 mpg in mixed driving, which works out to roughly £1,592 per year at current petrol prices of 142p per litre (based on 7,400 miles per year).

Buying a Used 2006 HUMMER H2
