Today, it’s tomorrow! And this is not just a marketing phrase. The X Ultra exoskeleton from Hypershell is a small revolution for anyone who loves to walk, run, or climb without exhausting their calves.
With 1,000 watts of power at your service, it promises nothing less than to make the mountains feel flat. Yes, flat. This isn’t just an innovation; it’s a paradigm shift for casual walkers and dedicated hikers alike.
Walk, run or climb a mountain as if it were nothing, thanks to intelligent motor technology
Imagine this: you set off on a hike, you climb a steep slope, you’re panting… and suddenly, someone runs past you effortlessly. No, it’s not a superhero; it’s just someone wearing an X Ultra strapped to their legs. This exoskeleton isn’t a sci-fi gadget; it’s a real tool that weighs less than 2 kg and transforms your outdoor adventures.
Equipped with a next-gen M-One motor that is 25% more powerful than its predecessor, the X Ultra offers intelligent assistance backed by finely tuned artificial intelligence. The device analyzes your pace, the terrain, and your needs, adjusting its power output accordingly. The result? Speeds of up to 25 km/h while running. Yes, running, not cycling.
Four times the assistance power of an e-bike for going further without suffering
Comparisons with electric-assist bicycles (e-bikes) are unavoidable. While an e-bike tops out at 250 watts, the X Ultra reaches an impressive 1,000 watts. That’s four times more. Yet, it remains quiet, stable, and most importantly: discreet. It’s like having a superpower at your disposal, activated only when you need it, ensuring your hikes aren’t torturous.
And it’s not just about speed. The manufacturer claims a 22% reduction in heart rate during walking and up to 42% while cycling. That’s significant! It means you can go further and climb higher, without running out of breath. That’s no minor detail for those who love long walks.
From forest strolls to alpine skiing: versatility designed for all terrains
You might think this exoskeleton is suited only for high-altitude trails. But it’s designed to adapt to various activities: hiking, cycling, skiing, or even urban walking for those who want to avoid sore calves after 15,000 steps.
In terms of battery life, the X Ultra boasts an impressive 60 km on foot and up to 130 km on a bike. Two 72 Wh batteries, rechargeable while descending thanks to an energy recovery system, allow it to keep pace with you without running out of power. And even if you start from a standstill, there’s no need to worry: its new thermal management system optimizes performance, even during an impromptu sprint.
A price of €2,000 for a technological marvel that transforms your relationship with effort
Yes, this technological marvel comes at a price. Expect to pay around €2,000. That’s twice the price of its smaller sibling, the X Pro, but considering the new features and performance gains, the investment could be worthwhile for those who frequently venture outdoors or seek a daily ally for increased mobility.
Ultimately, the X Ultra exoskeleton feels like having a bionic personal trainer on your back. It doesn’t do the work for you, but it propels, supports, and assists you. For everyone who has ever skipped a hike because “the hill is too steep,” this kind of innovation changes the game.
