01 / THE STORY

History & context

The HK H600, designed by Pininfarina, is a sleek hybrid sedan: boasting elegant leather, smooth elongated curves, and an impressive 800 horsepower. Its electrical energy is supplied by batteries and a “microturbine generator. The H600 made its global debut at the 2017 Geneva Motor Show, representing an innovative leap in sustainable energy as a concept car born from the partnership between Hybrid Kinetic Group and Pininfarina. The design philosophy placed a premium on luxury and international allure, targeting discerning businessmen who cherish meticulous craftsmanship and exclusive indulgence. Its cosmopolitan approach mirrors values embraced not only in Hong Kong but also in metropolises like Shanghai, New York, or Milan. By striking a formal balance between elegance and contemporary aesthetics, the H600 epitomizes the essence of luxury and exclusivity while adeptly addressing the imperatives of sustainable mobility in today’s world. As a trailblazer in both technology and marketing, the H600 paves the way for endless possibilities in the rapidly expanding new energy vehicle sector. Pininfarina’s legacy of innovative design finds its fullest expression in the H600, characterized by harmonious proportions, sleek lines, and fluid surfaces, accentuated by a distinctive side strip that underscores the car’s dynamic presence. Attention to detail is paramount, with every element reflecting the pure, fluid, and sensual language synonymous with Pininfarina. From the warm metallic grey accents to the jewel-like inserts, such as the polished aluminum accents adorning the bodywork, the H600 exudes a level of craftsmanship typically associated with premium automobiles. The interiors, designed in a lounge layout, offer unparalleled comfort, featuring noble materials like natural leather with haute couture finishing and veneered wood surfaces paying homage to traditional craftsmanship. Ambient lighting, controlled through a streamlined Human Machine Interface, bathes the cabin in soft, natural light, fostering a sense of well-being and tranquility. At the heart of the H600 lies the next-generation HK propulsion technology, incorporating a battery, electric motors, electric controller, and range extender. This groundbreaking system, powered by the HK microturbine range extender and the HK super battery, eliminates range limitations, providing ultra mileage and long-range capability without the need for external charging infrastructure. Moreover, the H600 boasts an energy recycling system, further enhancing energy efficiency and contributing to sustainable development objectives. The collaboration between Pininfarina and HK epitomizes a perfect fusion of identity, concept, and technology. While Pininfarina brings its expertise in brand identity and sensory experience to the table, HK contributes its innovative sustainable propulsion system, ensuring energy savings without compromising driving habits or convenience. Together, they have created a masterpiece that sets new standards in luxury, sustainability, and automotive innovation.
