The front design is inspired by intricately cut crystal gemstones, creating a mysterious and elegant appearance with gemstone polishing techniques. The Diamond Cut headlights, inspired by the brilliance of diamonds, shine brightly, while the Horizon tail lights, with their run-through design, illuminate like a stunning horizon at night.
A standout feature of the HYPTEC HT is the Gull-wing doors, which not only add to the car’s striking appearance but also provide exceptional ease of access, with a 2.3-meter opening height, allowing passengers to enter and exit without needing to bend or stoop. The doors can be opened even in tight parking spaces, requiring only 34 cm of side clearance. The doors also feature a smart obstacle avoidance system with 12 radar sensors, ensuring safe and intelligent door operation. The electric suction system ensures quiet and smooth door closing (exclusive to the 620 Luxury model).

2. HYPTEC Space
The HYPTEC HT introduces a new dimension of convenience and unparalleled luxury with its extra-large first-class cabin designed for ultimate comfort. The seats are upholstered in high-quality Nappa leather, with genuine wooden armrests for an exceptional tactile experience. The front passenger seat features an electrically adjustable leg rest, and the rear seat reclines up to 143 degrees, allowing passengers to lie back comfortably. A footrest in the rear seats enhances comfort during long journeys, allowing passengers to fully stretch their legs, reducing fatigue. The rear seat also includes a curved multifunctional table behind the driver’s seat, designed to minimize injury risk for children in case of impact. Additionally, front seats are equipped with 10-point electric massage functions, offering a spa-like experience with five different massage modes.
The 2.6-square-meter panoramic sunroof, with an electric curtain (exclusive to the 620 Premium model), provides excellent sun and heat protection. The double-layer laminated glass throughout the car reduces external noise, creating a peaceful, private space. The large 670-liter trunk can accommodate up to three golf bags, with an additional 80-liter two-tier storage space capable of holding a 20-inch suitcase and other items. There’s also a 55-liter front storage space under the hood.
Enjoy superior audio with the Dolby Atmos 7.1.2 system, featuring 22 high-quality speakers for an immersive surround sound experience. A subwoofer delivers deep, powerful bass, reminiscent of a live concert. Independent speakers positioned near the driver’s shoulders allow phone conversations or navigation instructions without disturbing passengers enjoying music or movies. The 14.6-inch 2.5K high-resolution display, powered by the Qualcomm 8155 chip, ensures smooth performance, supporting Apple CarPlay and other applications. The HYPTEC HT also includes an air fragrance system controlled via the central screen, offering three scent options.
3. HYPTEC Smart
The ADiGO SPACE smart cabin features a 4-position voice command system that can recognize and execute commands from any location within the car. The fatigue or distraction warning system intelligently analyzes the driver’s condition, issuing audio and on-screen alerts to enhance driving safety. A one-click front passenger seat adjustment feature allows the seat to move forward with a single press, creating more space for second-row passengers.
4. HYPTEC Energy
The HYPTEC HT comes with a 250 kW electric motor, delivering up to 340 horsepower and 430 Nm of torque to the rear wheels, enabling acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.8 seconds. It is paired with an 83.3 kWh Magazine Battery 2.0 lithium-ion phosphate battery, enhanced for greater safety and performance. With an 800-volt electrical architecture and “supercharge” technology, the battery can charge from 10-70% in just 15 minutes, offering a driving range of 372 km and a maximum range of 620 km. The vehicle also supports V2L (Vehicle-to-Load) technology with a maximum output of 3,300 watts for powering external devices.
5. HYPTEC Performance
The HYPTEC HT’s powerful driving control system is built on the AEP 3.0 platform, making it easy to maneuver a large vehicle with a 5.6-meter turning radius. The suspension, inspired by supercar engineering, and responsive, precise steering allow for customizable driving modes, including acceleration, braking, steering, and energy recovery settings. The front suspension features a Double Wishbone independent setup, while the rear uses a 5-Link independent system, improving both performance and comfort. This reduces body roll and vibration when parked or turning. The ASTC (Eagle Claw) intelligent stability system automatically adjusts the vehicle’s balance to reduce skidding risks in wet conditions or when control is lost, enhancing overall safety.
The HYPTEC HT has received a 5-star safety rating from the C-NCAP Institute and a Grade G (the highest level) in passenger protection, pedestrian protection, and proactive safety from the Zhongbao Research Institute.
