Hyundai's new Metaplant in Georgia assembles the Ioniq 5 and 9 electric vehicles, emphasizing a quiet working environment due to advanced design. The plant leverages automation, featuring robotic systems for quality checks and solar energy for power. It plays a crucial role in Hyundai's expansion in the U.S., especially in light of potential tariffs on imported vehicles. The CEO highlighted plans for future expansion and increased production capacity, reflecting both the company's commitment to electric vehicles and the ongoing complexities of trade and tariffs impacting the automotive industry.
"This is something remarkable today," Hyundai Motor Company's global CEO and president José Muñoz said last week at the plant's opening. "Before we even start, it's already going to be expanded like a second plant, with 500,000 [cars built annually] and two battery plants."
The Metaplant is one of the most advanced car factories not only in America, but anywhere in the world. It's the linchpin of Hyundai's expansion plans in the U.S.
