Dubai: Sheikh Hamad bin Hamdan Al Nahyan, popularly known as the ‘Rainbow Sheikh of Dubai’ and a renowned car enthusiast, has taken the concept of “the bigger the better” to extreme levels with his latest addition to his vast car collection. The Dubai billionaire commissioned a customized Hummer H1 X3, which is three times the size of the regular model, making it a colossal sight on the roads.
The viral video of the Sheikh’s gigantic Hummer towering over regular-sized vehicles has sparked fascination and awe on social media once again. The awe-inspiring Hummer H1 X3 measures an astounding 46 feet in length, 21.6 feet in height, and 19 feet in width. Remarkably, this mammoth car is fully drivable, boasting diesel engines on each wheel for its four-wheel-drive capability.
As a member of the Emirati royal family, Sheikh Hamad holds the Guinness World Record for the largest collection of 4×4 vehicles, an impressive compilation of 718 automobiles. With a personal net worth exceeding US$20 billion, he is no stranger to showcasing his extravagant automotive preferences.
While the exterior of the modified Hummer resembles an enlarged version of the original model, the interior of this automotive marvel resembles a small house, stretching across two floors. Reports indicate that the car features a living room, a toilet, and the steering cabin on its second floor.
Sheikh Hamad’s passion for cars extends beyond his personal collection. He has established various car museums, including one in Sharjah solely dedicated to off-road vehicles. Among the exhibits, visitors can witness not only the giant Hummer H1 but also the world’s largest running Jeep and the world’s biggest SUV.
The Rainbow Sheikh’s flair for the extraordinary extends beyond the automobile world, as he once commissioned an entire fleet of Mercedes S-class vehicles in every color of the rainbow, earning him his well-known nickname.
While some onlookers may find the immense Hummer H1 X3 quite extravagant, it undoubtedly embodies the epitome of opulence and automotive innovation, leaving car enthusiasts worldwide captivated by its sheer grandeur.
