Adiós al mítico Hummer.

El vehículo Hummer, que hasta hace poco fabricaba la compañía General Motors y que derivan de los vehículos militares HMMV, otrora símbolos de la opulencia y arrogancia estadounidenses, se van al garete tras el fracaso de las operaciones de la GM con la compañía china Sichuan Tengzhong Heavy Industrial Machinery Co. Ltd. El fin de las negociaciones se produce luego de haber concretado la venta de la firma sueca Saab a la holandesa Spyker. El acuerdo se complicó hace unas semanas debido a la negativa del gobierno chino para dar autorización a la compra de la marca norteamericana (estandarte del nuevo American Way of Life), pero hasta ahora se desconoce la verdadera causa del fin de la negociación, aunque GM asegura que los clientes de la marca mantendrán las garantías y repuestos igual que hasta ahora.


Así pues el vehículo de calle sucume ante la crisis económica, mientras que la versión militar lo hace en detrimento de los MRAP (aparte de por la crisis) más resistentes a las minas y más valorados por las tropas yankis.

La buena noticia para los nostálgicos que quieran adquirir un monstruo de las características del Hummer es que siempre podrán adquirir un URO. Sí está bien
escrito. Es un vehículo fabricado en Santiago de Compostela y que dispone también de dos versiones, la militar y la civil, y como premio añadido son ambas superiores técnicamente al norteamericano.

Sus características principales son:

•Tracción a las 4 ruedas.
•Tres diferenciales (central, trasero, delantero) bloqueables al 100%.
•Suspensión independiente en las 4 ruedas.
•Ángulo de ataque: 74º (con y sin cabrestante, el cabrestante esta “integrado” en el parachoques por lo que no “pierde” ángulo de ataque como ocurre con el Humvee/Hummer H1 que sin cabrestante tiene 72º pero con cabrestante se “queda” en 47º en ángulo de ataque).
•Ángulo de salida: 54º.
•Altura al suelo (bajo eje): 440 mm.
•Altura al suelo (ventral): 490 mm.
•Capacidad de vadeo sin “Snorkel” (Kit de vadeo profundo): 750 mm, es decir 0,75 m, mientras que con el Kit de vadeo profundo llega a 1.500 mm (1,5 m).
•Peso: Entre 5.000 y 5.800 Kg (5 y 5,8 t).
•Su precio estimado oscilaba en 2.006 entre los 70.000 y 90.000 € según el modelo.
La versión civil se denomina Uro VAM (Vehículo de Alta Movilidad) y esta derivada de la versión militar lógicamente. El VAMTAC/VAM tiene unas cualidades Off Road algo mejores que el Humvee/Hummer H1.
