Hyundai plans to power digitisation across all business verticals

The automaker, which has completed 25 years in the Indian market with over $4 billion investment so far, also plans to enhance digitisation across its all business verticals and focus on mobility services like subscription, hailing and sharing verticals to fuel future growth in the country going ahead.

Bullish on the long-term growth prospects of the Indian auto industry, South Korean auto major Hyundai aims to focus on various aspects like electrification, connected features and autonomous technology as part of its future product strategy in the country, as per a top company official.

"As an OEM, we are preparing various steps for the market depending upon the market dynamics. We will continue to bring in advanced technologies and models in this market," Hyundai Motor India Ltd (HMIL) MD and CEO SS Kim told reporters in an interaction.

He noted that customer convenience remained at the centre of its business plans.

"Mobility services, electrification, connected features and autonomous technology will define our future direction in the country," Kim said.

Elaborating on the company's plans regarding the electric vehicle segment, he said it remained the automaker's "number one priority".

"As we are aware that electrification is one of the top priorities of the Indian government, so we strongly believe that it is our responsibility as well to move in that direction.We have proven technology in this vertical so we are reviewing technologies and products that would be best for the Indian customers," Kim noted.

He noted that there has been no delay in the development process of the low-cost EV, which it plans to launch in the country in the next 2-3 years.

When asked about the domestic sales scenario, Kim noted that it would take the industry 2-3 years to reach back to the pre-COVID volume levels.

He said that uncertainties still prevailed in the market and therefore it was uncertain to predict the future. He noted that the company remained positive about the long-term growth prospects of the Indian auto industry.
