GM just announced this morning that it is planning to sell the Hummer brand, which will allow 3,000 jobs in the U.S. to stay in place, including jobs at the dealership level.  It wasn’t disclosed what the sale price was, or who was set to buy Hummer, however, GM did state that it plans to be a contract partner through the transition period.

GM also claimed that the Hummer H3, as well as the H3 SUT would continue production, even through this transitional time.

Although Hummer has lost some of its luster here in the U.S., GM claims that selling Hummer will expand the global reach for the brand.  And with new car warranties, consumers can rest assured that they won’t end up paying a fortune in unnecessary repair costs.
