The range on a full charge is supposed to be 329 miles.

I assume that's just for the vehicle, not towing or carrying a heavy load, and in ideal conditions (not needing heat or AC). True?

I don't know about the Hummer EV, but my EV (a car) has a stated range of 304 miles when full charged. Like ICE cars having a lower mpg than the stated rate, my EV's real miles/kWh is lower and I can get 240 miles on a full charge driving with my lead foot on the interstate (80 mph) with the A/C. Since my wife likes to stop every 200 miles anyway to walk around a few minutes, the EV is good for us on trips.

True. From a practical standpoint the range is more like 263 miles under ideal conditions. If you are making road trips it doesn't make sense to fast charge past 80% unless you need the range. Charging slows down drastically after that...
