Which country produces Hyundai cars?
2 Answers
Hyundai cars are produced in South Korea. The Hyundai lineup includes models such as the Fista Pure Electric, the new generation ix25, the new generation Verna, the Encino EV, the fourth-generation Santa Fe, and the Fista. Its main products include Pony, Super Pony, and Slata passenger cars and trucks. Taking the new generation ix25 as an example: it is a compact SUV with a body length, width, and height of 4300mm, 1790mm, and 1620mm respectively, and a wheelbase of 2610mm. The new generation ix25 is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 115ps, a maximum torque of 143.8nm, a maximum power speed of 6300rpm, and a maximum torque speed of 4500rpm. It is paired with a CVT continuously variable transmission and a 6-speed manual gearbox.
I have been engaged in automotive research for many years and learned that Hyundai is a national treasure brand of South Korea. It was founded in Seoul in 1967 by Chung Ju-yung, who started from a small auto repair shop and later expanded Hyundai Group. In the 1960s and 1970s, Hyundai began manufacturing cars, such as the first-generation Pony model, gradually expanding globally. Today, Hyundai ranks among the top in global sales, but its production base remains primarily in South Korea, with facilities like the Ulsan plant being one of the largest in the world. The South Korean government strongly supports the automotive industry, driving technological innovation and making Hyundai a major exporter. This brand represents the rise of South Korea's industry, evolving from imitation to originality, which is truly worth learning from.
