"1) The HYC50 is a mature product with documentation available online. Do not neglect to search for documents that might assist your effort. Installation and operational manuals exist in various locations. 2) If you are one of the few who were approved to receive a development case for research, please be aware that these are custom, hand-built, experimental devices. Before powering up, look/listen for any fasteners that may have come loose during shipping. Correct those before applying power to the unit to avoid damage."
"Conclusion The Alpitronic HYC50 offers a rich and complex target for Pwn2Own researchers. This preliminary look identifies the core digital components, memory, and - crucially - the physical debug and manufacturing interfaces that may be leveraged for the contest. We look forward to seeing the innovative research that will be brought to bear on the HYC50 at Pwn2Own Automotive 2026. Happy hunting, and may the bounty be ever in your favor!"
The Alpitronic HYC50 is a mature EV charger with documentation and installation and operational manuals available online from multiple sources. Development cases distributed for research are custom, hand-built, experimental devices that require physical inspection for loose fasteners before applying power to avoid damage. The device contains core digital components and memory alongside physical debug and manufacturing interfaces that present attack surfaces for security research. These interfaces and components can be leveraged for contest entries in Pwn2Own Automotive. Researchers are encouraged to seek existing documentation and follow official channels for exploit techniques, security patches, and contest updates.
