New digital luxury brand Kincsem has appointed CALLUM, led by Ian Callum CBE, recently named GQ's Car Designer of the Year, to deliver the design of an all-new electrified hyper-car. Kincsem is digital-first in every facet and truly without constraint. Hungarian founder Tibor Bak's vision is to fuse the world's best talent with the latest technology to develop beautifully designed, high performance products. From finance, agile manufacturing and A.I. design the brand is pioneering the integration of digital at every aspect. Bak is bringing all of his considerable industrial experience and skill to innovate new and previously untapped partnerships and methodologies to deliver the brand's diverse product portfolio, of which the Hyper-GT is the first launch. "The story of Kincsem the horse is the inspiration behind the brand; the ethos behind her training was pioneering and as a result, her achievements remain unsurpassed. Our pioneering approach to digital technology allows us to create without constraints and place the individual at the centre of the design process. Our customers will experience new levels of dynamic personalisation that has never before been possible," comments Tibor Bak. "The Kincsem Hyper-GT, designed by Ian Callum, will bring together new modes of digital integration into development, design, manufacture and ownership. The possibilities presented by the new augmented, digital age enable us to help our customers enter a 'flow state,' which athletes call The Zone, offering a level of dynamic personalisation and control that has never before been possible." Kincsem, the world-famous Hungarian racehorse was unbeaten over a career of 54 races. The new Hyper-GT applauds her legacy by creating just 54 UK-manufactured luxury vehicles. These feature a revolutionary high revving F1-derived hybrid powertrain, with delivery commencing in 2023. Eclipsing the options for customer personalisation currently available, the Hyper-GT will introduce a new "Personal Engineering" experience for each owner in a car combining driver responsiveness with zero-emissions capability. Price is yet to be confirmed but will compete at the highest echelons of luxury automotive. The CALLUM appointment is the first of a number of high-profile partnerships to be announced that draw on the pinnacle of design, engineering and production talent across the globe. CALLUM's inclusion brings an unrivalled pedigree to the project, due to be unveiled in full in late 2021, and the new car represents an empowering and open brief for the design team. "With Kincsem, we have that rare privilege to not only create a beautiful car, but also form a design language for an innovative luxury brand," says Ian Callum, who leads the CALLUM design team. "Refreshingly, Kincsem has said there are no rules, enabling us to pose the question 'If we could do whatever we wanted, what would we do?' That's one of the most invigorating opportunities for any designer. The team at CALLUM is extremely excited to start work." The Kincsem ethos of unrivalled customer involvement will manifest across multiple products, services and experiences as the future unfolds. This will include the launch of a luxury performance SUV featuring the same drivetrain and Personal Engineering possibilities as the Hyper-GT.
