K360® e-SSV | Think Piece

Meet the K360® e-SSV concept – a bold vision for the future, combining cutting-edge innovation, sustainability, and the needs of modern adventurers.

Tech is redefining exploration.

Outdoor adventure is evolving. Whilst modern explorers still seek to escape urban life and reconnect with nature, they now prioritise sustainable solutions which provide unforgettable experiences. In combination with advances in electric mobility and connected products, this demand drives the development of safer, ‘greener’, and more rewarding outdoor activities. The K360® e-SSV addresses these shifts – blending functionality and innovation into a next-gen adventure ecosystem.

This isn’t the first time we’ve designed an ATV.

Revolutionising off-road adventure.

The recreational SSV market is booming, fueled by increasing demand across North America and the increasing popularity of off-road exploration in Asia-Pacific. Overlanding (combining off-roading with camping) has surged globally, creating a gap for vehicles which can both conquer rugged terrain and serve as reliable basecamps. The K360® e-SSV concept tackles these needs while solving ‘range anxiety’ with an integrated range extender.

“I’m excited about the possibilities e-SSVs will bring to outdoor enthusiasts. People are investing in products which provide real, unforgettable experiences and we foresee this only increasing in the future”.

– Christoph Pranger | Team Lead Strategic Product Management

An industry-spanning concept.

This project unites our expertise across mobility, active lifestyle, and tech. It’s MORE than a vehicle – it’s the centrepiece of a broader ecosystem. We’ve integrated cutting-edge design with outdoor apparel, technology, and energy infrastructure to support connected exploration. Drones, modular energy systems, gear-ready functionality – it’s a complete platform for adventures on land, water, and more.

“As usual, we went beyond just designing a vehicle! We explored new possibilities which elevate and empower your exploration – because meaningful design isn’t just seen, it’s experienced”.

– Maxime Lefebvre | Team Lead Transportation Design

This isn’t about mobility…

…it’s about exploring responsibly and seamlessly. This future-forward adventure hub is built for minimal impact, with zero-emission useability to silently protect natural spaces, while powering outdoor gear and activities. Future-ready battery advancements, combined with the range extender, ensure users can venture farther without compromise. From hiking to foiling to camping.

Our pioneering expertise.

From the KTM FREERIDE E, the world’s first serial off-road e-motorcycle from a major manufacturer to iconic ATV and ORV design with CFMOTO’s flagship Z10 SSV, we’ve consistently redefined the limits of off-road and e-mobility design. The K360® e-SSV builds upon this foundation, reflecting decades of expertise in creating transformative outdoor products.

Adventure that adapts.

With capabilities for overlanding, water sports, and hiking, the K360® e-SSV acts as a modular basecamp. It powers gear, supports shelter, and integrates a drone for terrain scouting and cinematic storytelling. By future-casting advancements in battery tech and embedding connected systems, the K360® redefines what outdoor exploration can be.

“This sprint project was a great chance for us to bring together our skills and passion for the outdoors to create a wireframe for the ‘ultimate adventure experience’. Keep your eye on us, we’re just warming up!”

– Pascal Michallek | Transportation Designer
