Hyundai Motor Group, a leading global automaker, has announced a significant increase in its U.S. investment to $26 billion over the next four years. This investment, which will be made between 2025 and 2028, aims to expand the Group’s footprint in strategic industries such as steel, automotive, and robotics [2].

The new investment represents an additional $5 billion on top of the $21 billion previously allocated in March 2025. Key highlights of this investment include:

1. Strategic Steel Manufacturing: Hyundai Motor Group will establish a new steel mill in Louisiana, reinforcing U.S. strategic industries and strengthening local supply chains [2].
2. Expanding U.S. Auto Production Capacity: Hyundai Motor Company and Kia Corporation, the Group’s automotive affiliates, will substantially expand their U.S. auto production capacity, enhancing the Group’s ability to meet American market demands with greater speed and efficiency [2].
3. Robotics Innovation Hub: The Group will establish a state-of-the-art robotics facility with an annual capacity of 30,000 units in the U.S., positioning Hyundai Motor Group at the forefront of the global robotics ecosystem [2].

Through these initiatives, Hyundai Motor Group expects to create around 25,000 new direct jobs in the United States by 2028, contributing meaningfully to the nation’s economic vitality [2].

The Group is also accelerating technology commercialization through its U.S.-based tech affiliates — Boston Dynamics for robotics and Motional for autonomous driving — while expanding collaboration with leading American companies in future technologies, including AI, robotics, and autonomous driving [2].

Since entering the U.S. market in 1986, Hyundai Motor Group has invested more than $20.5 billion, aligning its growth with that of the nation. This latest investment underscores the Group’s unwavering commitment to the U.S. economy and its role as a trusted partner in driving innovation, sustainability, and long-term prosperity [3].
