On November 16, Yonhap News Agency reported that Hyundai Motor Group unveiled its ambitious investment plan, pledging to inject 125.2 trillion Korean won (equivalent to roughly 611.1 billion yuan) into the domestic market over the five-year span from 2025 to 2030. This staggering sum significantly surpasses the group's previous local investment scale during the 2021-2025 period, which stood at 89.1 trillion Korean won, thereby setting a new benchmark in the company's history.
The investment will be strategically distributed across various sectors. Specifically, 50.5 trillion Korean won will be channeled into pioneering new project domains, including artificial intelligence, software-defined vehicles (SDVs), electrification, robotics, and hydrogen energy. Meanwhile, 38.5 trillion Korean won will be earmarked for research and development (R&D) in future mobility solutions. Additionally, 36.2 trillion Korean won will be allocated to the construction and upkeep of facilities.
Through this medium- to long-term investment strategy, Hyundai Motor Group aims to bolster its future growth trajectory, nurture the burgeoning artificial intelligence and robotics sectors, cultivate a sustainable green energy ecosystem, and solidify South Korea's standing as a global epicenter for mobility innovation. Furthermore, the group will extend tariff assistance to partners of Hyundai Motor and Kia in the United States, fostering a mutually beneficial and win-win collaborative environment.
