The Hummer 4 will be smaller than the other Hummer models and is by many said to have a buggy feel to it. In fact early reports of what seems to be the Hummer H4 described it as a Hummer Buggy something that many thought never would get pass the concept stage. It is however possible that the Hummer 4 get an entire different feel to it once it is released as GM has decided on which chassis to use in Hummer H4. Something that will effect the final design and look. The fact that it will be small is however set in stone and will play a large role in choosing the chassis for the hummer 4 as it mean to be small and have good terrain traversing qualities compete with the jeep wrangler. There are some speculations that Hummer H4 could use a shortened version of the same chassis that are presently used in the Hummer H3.
