According to Autoblog, HUMMER will begin shipping and selling models in Japan starting in the spring of 2008. With the HUMMER H3 being the main export to other countries, expect it to be the main seller in Japan. The right-handed drive version of the H3 was also shown at the recent Tokyo Auto Show – and featured a unique forward facing camera (pictured below). SUVs in Japan are required to have a system to enhance the view of the front corners. Some manufacturers use mirrors mounted on the hood at the corners, while HUMMER opted to go with the camera system.
