Rick Ross has a massive car collection. The rapper, mogul, and auto enthusiast loves automobiles and strives to own as many as he can. He owns over 200 acres of land, so he has more than enough space to keep as many sports cars and SUV models as he likes nearby. Some vehicles are stock, while others are customized to the artist’s specific wants and needs. His custom Hummer H1 is one of the most lavish vehicles in his collection.

Rick Ross does everything big. His custom Hummer H1 is no exception. Ross owns a Hummer H1 with an unconventional interior.

The seats of Ross’ custom Hummer H1 are covered in leather. Not just any leather. According to AutoEvolution, these seats are covered in velvety Louis Vuitton monogram-print leather. Tiny Louis Vuitton wallets can cost hundreds of dollars, so multiple leather seats should easily rack up a hefty bill for the rap superstar.

The craftsmanship behind the Louis Vuitton leather-wrapped seats is impeccable. Very few Hummer H1 models exist. Ross’ addition of Louis Vuitton seats made a rare SUV even rarer. The Hummer H1 may not be the most expensive vehicle in the celebrity’s collection, but mixing the grit and ruggedness of the American H1 with lavish French leather creates a unique aesthetic. This custom Hummer H1 combines business and pleasure.

Are H1 Hummers still made?

Hummer H1 models are no longer in production. The vehicles had a 14-year run from 1992 to 2006. After 2006 new Hummer H1 models were no longer available to the general public. Military and commercial automotive manufacture AM General still produced a military iteration of the Hummer H1 after 2006.

There are less than 12,000 total Hummer H1 models in existence. Finding Hummer H1 models is extremely difficult. The H1 is often sold for more than double its retail price despite having high mileage. GM is producing an electric Hummer, so it is unlikely that consumers will see anything mechanically reminiscent of the original Hummer H1 ever again.

The Hummer H1 came with several V8 diesel engine powertrain choices. The 2006 Hummer H1 diesel 6.6-liter V8 engine made a whopping 300 horsepower. The H1 is a relic of a bygone era where carbon emissions weren’t often considered, and power was everything for off-roading SUVs such as the Hummer.

How much does a Hummer H1 cost?

The Hummer H1 debuted for just under $40,000. Hummer H1 prices gradually increased with surging popularity and demand until the H1 was discontinued. Hummer H1 prices topped well over $100,000.

Used Hummers have retained their value, and many have appreciated over time rather than depreciating. Used Hummer H1 models can be found for as high as $80,000, and most models have plenty of miles on them. The Hummer H1 is a one-of-a-kind SUV that just can’t be replicated. Automotive enthusiasts like Rick Ross recognize the SUV’s value and scarcity. Rick Ross’ custom Hummer H1 with camo paint and Louis Vuitton sears can easily be worth upwards of $150,000.
