Automobile magazine has kissed the 2008 HUMMER embargo good-bye, so here’s the skinny on the ‘08 H3 Alpha.

For 2008, HUMMER has addressed one of the sticking points many people have had with the smaller H3 model, namely, the lack of a V8 engine. While the 3.7L inline 5 has adequate power to shuttle the H3 around, the burble of a V8’s exhaust note and the associated extra thrust would certainly have been more in keeping with the brand image created by the monster-sized H1 and solidified by the more-realistic H2.

With the return of the Alpha moniker last seen on the top-end H1, HUMMER fixed the H3’s biggest problem. The Alpha, you see, has 5.3 liters of V8 power underhood. Read on after the jump.
