2022 Namx HUV concept

NAMX presents the prototype of its HUV, the world's first car partially powered by a patented removable tank system that promises to change the experience paradigm of clean mobility and make hydrogen fuel widely available. Designed in collaboration with PININFARINA, in a pure and muscular style, the HUV is a hydrogen-powered, fuel cell SUV equipped with a fixed tank and six removable capsules providing autonomy of up to 800 kilometers. The use of capsules as secondary tanks is a breakthrough innovation that opens the door to the large-scale deployment of hydrogen for private vehicles through a new, highly decentralized, energy distribution model.

NAMX's HUV is part of a large-scale industrial and technological project whose ambition is to reconcile human mobility and environmental preservation thanks to green hydrogen. Faouzi ANNAJAH and Thomas de LUSSAC, the cofounders of NAMX, intend to lead this project from end to end by federating key players in the industry, articulating the best of the existing technologies, and creating the solutions which are still missing.

Pininfarina and NAMX redefined a completely new creative approach while designing together the HUV. This is a “next generation” car. A futuristic fusion of muscular main volumes, aggressive graphics, and a touch of retro around the lamp elements. The new design language and identity created for NAMX is not intended to celebrate a new brand, but to really give an all-new meaning to the innovative hydrogen concept never seen before. Stylistically speaking, the HUV consciously adopts a contrasting image as compared to the current “green design” approach of our time.
