The move aligns with Hyundai's global strategy to expand its EV portfolio and strengthen its foothold in the green mobility segment in India. The plant, which has been operational for years, will benefit from state-of-the-art technologies, leading to higher efficiency and reduced environmental impact.

This modernization project also reflects Hyundai’s commitment to staying competitive in the Indian automotive market by adopting cutting-edge manufacturing processes and increasing production efficiency.
