Hummer H3 in Dubai

I saw what I believe is a Hummer H3 yesterday. It was parked in front of Hall 3 at the Dubai International Exhibition Center. I don’t get the point of this thing…it’s ugly, doesn’t look especially tough, and isn’t very exclusive. It’s going to have a tough time competing against the likes of the Nissan Patrol in the Middle East market.
What’s weird is that I don’t think this thing has gone on sale yet, not even in the US. The Hummer website says that the H3 is “coming soon.” Since it’s not really a vehicle I have any interest in, I haven’t been keeping up with its feature set or release schedule.
