Hyundai Motor, Audi and BYD are redirecting their strategic focus on electric sedans to achieve balanced sales growth with their SUV lineups. The three carmakers recently introduced flagship all-electric models in Korea, hoping to capture local demand for quality sedans. Last month, Hyundai Motor unveiled the freshly redesigned IONIQ 6 electric vehicle (EV) for the Korean market. The upgraded model came in almost three years after the vehicle debuted in September 2022. The IONIQ 6 is one of the carmaker’s flagship EV models, along with the IONIQ 5 compact SUV. The new IONIQ 6 has clear upsides compared with other electric sedans, as the vehicle is capable of traveling up to 562 kilometers on a single charge — the highest among EVs available in Korea. Given local customers’ strong preference for longer-range EVs, the vehicle holds a strong competitive edge in the non-premium EV sedan market. The vehicle is available for less than 50 million won ($35,700), making it an outstanding

SK Innovation's recent decision to replace its company cars with Hyundai Motor electric vehicles (EVs) was in contrast to expectations that SK Group affiliates would follow Chairman Chey Tae-won's recommendation to buy automobiles from General Motors or other U.S. carmakers to help counter trade pressure from the Donald Trump administration. The intermediate holding company overseeing SK Group’s petrochemical and energy businesses recently instructed all executives to choose between the IONIQ 9 and eG80 as their new company vehicles. Both Hyundai EVs are powered by batteries made by SK On, an SK Innovation affiliate. SK Innovation plans to begin replacing its fleet next month, aiming to complete the transition by the end of the year. “Amid the global economic slowdown and weak EV demand, the domestic EV industry has faced difficulties,” an SK Innovation official said. “We made this decision to boost EV adoption in Korea by ensuring all our executives use EVs.” In his capacity as the

Hyundai’s latest Ioniq 5 model. Hyundai is now offering an “optional” security upgrade for the Ioniq 5 in the UK that prevents the car being stolen with a Game Boy-like device. Hyundai wants some Ioniq 5 owners to pay a £49 ($65) to upgrade hardware and software components to prevent thieves using handheld devices to unlock and start cars without needing a key. Kia, Hyundai, and Genesis EVs have been under attack in the UK and elsewhere in recent years thanks to a sophisticated Game Boy-like handheld device that cracks the wireless protocols used by Hyundai Motor Group on vehicles like the Ioniq 5, original EV6, and Genesis GV60.

HWASEONG, Gyeonggi Province — Hyundai Motor Group is doubling down on research for future eco-friendly mobility to sharpen its competitive edge in an era of electric vehicles (EVs). The carmaker’s Namyang R&D Center stands at the center of its future in the global EV race. The flagship research facility for the carmaker was established in 1996 and has since overseen every aspect of vehicle development, from new model design to performance evaluation. It serves as a key hub for mobility innovation for the group’s three vehicle brands — Hyundai Motor, Kia and Genesis — covering not just passenger cars, but also commercial vehicles. The continued investment in research is generating tangible outcomes, as evidenced by its increasing sales. According to data from the Korea Automobile & Mobility Association (KAMA), Hyundai Motor Group sold some 224,500 electric-powered cars, including battery electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles — between January and May this year, up 17 percent from the

Hyundai Motor Group's export of electric vehicles (EVs) from Korea to the United States fell nearly 90 percent on-year in the first five months of the year, as the automaker shifts production of America-bound vehicles to its new U.S. facility, according to industry data Tuesday. According to the data from the Korea Automobile & Mobility Association (KAMA), Hyundai Motor and Kia combined exported 7,156 EVs to the U.S. between January and May this year, down 88 percent from 59,705 units during the same period a year earlier. Hyundai Motor, including its premium Genesis line, shipped 3,906 units, marking an 87 percent decline, while Kia's exports dropped 89.1 percent to 3,250 units. The volume represents the lowest level for the January-May period since Hyundai Motor Group began accelerating its electrification strategy in 2021. The decline is largely attributed to Hyundai's ongoing efforts to localize EV production in the U.S. In the first half of the year, the automaker completed

Hyundai just unveiled its second-ever performance EV, the Ioniq 6 N, at the Goodwood Festival of Speed in West Sussex, England. The new variant carries over a lot of what made the Ioniq 5 N so appealing, while adding a little more range and a little more giddyap. But more importantly is a suite of features designed to mimic the best parts about high-performance vehicles, like shifting, engine noise, and drifting. Hyundai recognizes that just because it’s swapped the roaring 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-4 engine with twin electric motors doesn’t mean it needs to leave behind all the hair-raising, goosebump-inducing sensations of steering an insanely powerful sedan around a racetrack. Based on Hyundai’s RN22e concept, the Hyundai Ioniq 6 N uses the same powertrain as the Ioniq 5 N. That includes the same 84kWh battery pack, which

The two carmakers' combined sales of EV passenger vehicles reached 1,024,948 units as of last month, according to their investor relations data. Hyundai Motor Group launched its first EV model based on the dedicated Electric-Global Modular Platform (E-GMP), the Hyundai Ioniq 5, in February 2021. Other E-GMP-based models include Hyundai's Ioniq 6 and Ioniq 9, the GV60 from Hyundai's premium Genesis brand, and Kia's EV3, EV4, EV5, EV6 and EV9. Nearly 80 percent of E-GMP-based EVs were sold outside South Korea. The Ioniq 5 was the bestselling model, with cumulative sales reaching 417,000 units. When including EV sales not based on the E-GMP platform, the two companies' total cumulative EV sales came to 2,006,279 units as of last month.

YANGPYEONG, Gyeonggi Province — Renault Korea’s first all-electric vehicle, the Scenic E-Tech, is moving to take on the nation’s two most sought-after electric vehicles (EVs), Hyundai Motor’s IONIQ 5 and Kia’s EV3. The Scenic compact electric SUV will be available for sale here in August, deepening the rivalry among price-competitive rivals. The vehicle carries strategic significance to Renault Korea for its smooth transition to the upcoming era of EVs. For now, the carmaker relies heavily on the Grand Koleos SUV, which accounts for more than 80 percent of Renault Korea’s total auto sales. All eyes were on the pricing of the Scenic, as few overseas carmakers have been able to challenge the rival models from the Korean firms due to their strong price competitiveness. Renault Korea unveiled Wednesday that the price for the Scenic E-Tech will start from 46 million won ($33,700) after subsidies in Seoul. As expected, the figure was higher than that of the IONIQ 5 and EV3. Customers can
